The CRPG Renaissance, Part 3: TSR Is Dead

news.ycombinator.com Jimmy Maher 2025-07-09 02:16:16

“How do you make a small fortune in tabletop gaming?” runs an old joke. The punchline, of course, is that you come to that market with a large one. The tabletop truly is a brutally challenging place to try to earn money, one which you have to be either wildly deluded or unbelievably passionate to even contemplate entering. Nevertheless, people have been making a go of it there for quite some decades by now. We’ll give them the benefit of the doubt and assume that love rather than mental illnes

The FBI and local police are investigating after gunshots shattered windows at a Tesla dealership in Oregon on Wednesday morning—the latest potential sign that Tesla’s CEO, billionaire-turned-“bureaucrat” Elon Musk, is stirring discontent throughout the nation. The dealership, which is located in the state’s capital city of Salem, was struck by gunfire and a car was lit on fire. Police at the scene said they were investigating arson and vandalism crimes.

Apple Vision Pro Headset Gets Overdue Missing Features, Including Apple Intelligence

Apple's futuristic Vision Pro headset hit the one-year mark, but during that initial year, it still felt like it was missing some key features. Now, Apple is addressing a few of those features, at least in small steps, with VisionOS 2.4. Apple Intelligence is finally arriving on Vision Pro, along with some connected apps and guest mode features for iPhones and iPads. The new OS update can be tested in a developer beta arriving today, but the official OS update isn't coming until April. I've bee

The 'E' in iPhone 16E Might As Well Stand for Expensive

cnet.com David Lumb 2025-07-09 05:00:07

Apple has unveiled its newest phone, the iPhone 16E, and promptly removed its budget iPhone SE (2022) from its online store. While that suggests Apple sees its new phone as a follow-up to its only affordable option, its $600 price tag means it's more of a discounted premium handset than a true budget pick. But I hold out hope. I'm an iPhone SE truther: I believe the affordable phone space is too valuable for Apple to give up. The iPhone 16E inhabits a mid-range role that had been missing for a

Best Compression Socks for 2025

Many compression socks look basic and utilitarian, but some companies make business-casual or whimsical styles, too. Consider what material and length would be most comfortable for you. Mild to moderate compression is enough for most daily needs, but you may need firmer compression for recovery, varicose veins or other uses. One of the most common ways to avoid leg pain from cramps and reduce fluid buildup for athletes and people with circulation issues is to wear compression stockings. These

But doctors are generally allowed to practice medicine only where they have a license. This means they cannot treat patients across state lines unless they also have a license in the patient’s state, and most physicians have one or two licenses at most.
