If the US demanded to release reserves or and threaded an export ban, the EU releasing their reserves is in the interest of the US.

Grapes are pretty cool too. Or baby carrots.

Oh, I thought my VPN was the reason I got all of those.

Do you have to use a big social platform? Click on all of the ads you see or click on some of them, but don’t buy anything.

Check out AdNauseam, it’s based on uBlock Origin

Yee. The music being injected directly into the ear canal does make it easier for it to sound better. Just that the noise leakage of these is more on par with the ones on the left.

I do think the clip ones I have sound fairly well, but it does take a step from plugs.

Personally I don’t think they’re too heavy, but ymmv. Nothing goes in the ear canal so that stays clear.

You can also get over ear “hooks”: https://shokz.com/pages/openfit2
Those may be even heavier, but they sit on top of your ear rather than hanging off them.

I’ve never liked wearing earphones in bed as I want to turn on my side, I’ve never found any to be comfortable in that position.

Also Shokz is definitely not the only brand which sells these kinds, just the one I’m familiar with.

I find it difficult to say. I’ve gotten no such complaints, but I don’t generally use these on, say, the couch next to others.

I wouldn’t think they’re much more noisy then the “non-plug” style of earbuds of yesteryear.

Perchance means percipitation chance

Wired is also valid.

I guess what pushes wireless over the edge for me is the convenience of having a little puck in my pocket which cannot get tangled up.

I don’t think your tone was particularly negative, I think I could’ve done a better job at the tone of my earlier reply as well. I appreciate you clarifying, 'sall good.

I’ve been using them for a while and am fairly happy with them. I like that they keep my ears open, and after wearing them for a bit I hardly notice they’re there.
There’s enough of a gap between the rear “drum” and the front piece that it doesn’t uncomfortably pinch the cartilage of my ear, even during extended sessions.
I know Bose and JBL have their own versions too, there’s probably other brands out there.

Not to say you have to run out and try them, but just so you know there be options.

You might enjoy the increasingly popular “clip” style of earbud.

The text is pretty good though:

I respect a DM who’s gone out to find useful references made by others.

I do not respect a DM who has asked a bot to generate some supplemental images.

I do not want to play with a DM who tasks a bot with coming up with a story or responses during play.

Simple as.

But one fascist country being able to hold all others hostage isn’t exactly great either.

Who knows, I care little about arguing such hypotheticals.

Either way, guide books contain pictures and there are plenty of websites people post their art to. You can just use such as reference material. A handdrawn map, even if crummy, is more charming than some AI hallucination.

I interpreted “art” as the DM’s storytelling in this case. If the DM doesn’t do that much, why even bother.
I have no qualms about the use of supplemental materials such as a guidebook, reference images, or otherwise. Ones preferably obtained from real artists.

Is this claiming that you can’t be an effective DM if you don’t do your own art?

Literally yes.
It doesn’t say it has to be all you. A guide book is just fine, that’s what its there for! But if you’re just repeating what the chatbot generates, even if it’s slightly modified, I might as well talk to one myself.
You don’t have to be a great DM, if you’re trying you’re at least improving for next time. If you’re using a bot you’re not even doing that.
