Well said... Thanks for spelling it out!

Your last one is a good question. I don't have an answer but I was leaning towards some sort of conservation law (e.g. normal stars have magnetic fields, when they get squeezed down to a neutron star those fields must go somewhere and it will be very much "concentrated"). Apparently this is a bit too easy (didn't expect to be nothing different). Wikipedia provides a reference to a not too recent (2003) survey, namely this one: https://arxiv.org/abs/astro-ph/0307133 . I don't know if it's the state of the art but it surely is interesting.

How much I do love those fonts. That proper spacing and balancing... It will always a place in my heart and I fear the day that I will fail to recognize it!

Same for me. I have been reading Linus (Torvalds) posts since decades and it really seemed out of character to me. I even clicked on the link but I admit that I haven't yet understood what is going on. I have decided that it's not for me...

So long, and thanks.

What is an "Analogue pocket" for those of us ... Out of the loop?

There is an optional Ocr pass, from what I understand

One wonders how they market their services : "come to us, we are the best fake reviewers you can find on the web and these 5-star reviews prove it!"

 

Hello! I hope I am not off topic, this is literally my first day here (ok, maybe I should wait and know the community a bit better but I 'll try to be slightly bolder...if it's not ok just let me know). I understand that by choice there are no super focused communities to avoid an excessive fragmentation. So I wonder: is this the good place to discuss about tabletop RPGs? Coop/solo modes, too.

I am thinking about Call of Cthulhu, Savage Worlds, Gurps, Fate, ... And not only the usual super famous one!

I am a long time GM and sometimes player, both IRL and online, and currently I am playing a lot in solo mode (with the help of the mythic GM emulator).
