Maybe. There are many ways to move files and directories around without using Finder, at which point all indexed data about those files and directories will be stale. Forcing something as core as mv to update Spotlight would be significantly worse, I think. By keeping the .DS_Store files co-located with the directory they index, moving a directory does not invalidate the index data (though moving a file without using Finder still does). Whether retaining indexing on directory moves is a compelling enough reason to force the files everywhere is probably dependent on whether that's a common enough pattern among workflows of users, and whether spotlight performance would suffer drastically if it were reliant on a central store not resilient against such moves.

So, it's probably a shaky reason at best.

I introduced a "small one story structure, its walls no wider than the span of a single door" next to the farmhouse my players were investigating. They didn't believe the owners who told them what it was for, and went to check it out for themselves, hackles up and weapons drawn.

It's an outhouse.

Just an outhouse.

I think it turned into some amount of shit slinging that stopped being relevant to the shit at hand. I'm guessing mods decided to close that sphincter before the verbal diarrhea overflowed the rim of the post ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The poop knife is irrelevant until and unless one plans to flush, which this question did not ask.

Also, why do you assume the nurse is a lady?

Sync has it as an app option, and several of the apps I was using prior to sync had something similar.

This has vastly improved my experience on Lemmy's Top 6 Hours

In my utopia, Google would be forced to continue to pay out the current annual contract sum, at a decreasing percentage every year, for some number of years, to all affected companies, giving them the opportunity to divest and pivot.

The root problem doesn't get fixed if the company with enough money to be a monopolist still has the money when this is "resolved."

If you are referring to the final frame, it is a direct quote from the Good Place S4 E1. https://getyarn.io/yarn-clip/6dfb15d4-f2e3-4d94-8849-f99279feb1c4

You may want to then direct your grammar policing to the showrunners or the actor who ad-libbed the line, rather than to the meme maker.

Most people hear " bubble" and think "oof, that's not a good thing."

Capitalists (the ones with the actual capital) hear the same thing and think "just imagine how rich I'll be if I get out right before it pops! Blow more hot air into it! Quickly!"

Make dndbeyond good/better, invest in 3rd party VTT integrations, and keep selling books through those channels. Keep partnering with 3rd party content creators to get a cut of their profits selling through dndbeyond.

I'd stop trying to disrupt the industry or chase massive profits, and just be okay with reasonable profits.

They'd oust me in a week.

I enjoyed watching Harmonquest, the episodes of which have parts video of the table and parts animated story. It's a comedy show, for the most part, which genre appeals to me. Past, that, I enjoy a good actual play podcast, sans video, like BomBARDed or NaDDPod, both of which are also comedic stories.

Just watching a group play a game can indeed be boring. But if that game is just a format for the genre of entertainment you already enjoy, that's the appeal.
