im pretty sure its the other way around; If they hold out for 1 more month, they have to have a special election. If they don't hold out for a month, the governor (who is a democrat) gets to appoint someone.

    password managers in the browser still store them encrypted. They usually authenticate via a passkey, in-built security in the OS like windows hello, or through other services such as SSO through google; That said, if you have them on auto-pilot with this authentication, anyone with access to the device can theoretically access them, though to actually view them in the password manager they usually require you to authenticate.

    Browser password managers are sorta less secure than a third party one, assuming you turn on all the convenience features to make your life easier, but a lot of third-party password managers have the same convenience features a lot of the time anyways.

    Saving the password in your browser is using a password manager; you're just using the one built into your browser. The safety and security of using any individual password manager is pretty much up to how secure that particular password manager is, but generally speaking they all store passwords encrypted.

    Ones built into a browser have the added attack vector of being potentially vulnerable from the browser itself vs a stand alone manager, but if you use a plugin for your favorite password manager they likely share a pretty similar attack vector possibility.

    Either way, using a password manager is infinitely better than reusing passwords, so this is really just a long winded way of saying "no, not really".

    Dedicated password managers usually come with more security, control, and features, but you're generally going to be fine using the one built into your browser.

    off the top of my head, gamma world, mutant crawl classics, Mutant (and its more modern version mutant year zero).

    Mutants and masterminds depending on your definition of mutation, since its more like "superhero marvel mutants" than like "radioactive mutants"

    Monte cooke games also has a 5e supplement called "arcana of the ancients" that includes mutation rules that are pretty good IMO.

    I dont know if it will include it, but i am like 90% sure the upcoming mystic punks from exalted funeral is going to have something to do with mutants.

    The gold market cap has always been the approximate amount of gold that has been extracted. While I don't think anyone can give you an actual precise number, the approximate number is pretty widely known and tracked as we extract more.

    I really like the sentinels comics rpg - https://www.greaterthangames.com/pages/sentinel-comics

    It's based on the sentinels of the multiverse card game, and has a really unique system. Basic low down - every roll you have die based on a "stat", a power, and your (or the scene's) status (green, yellow, red).

    On a basic roll, you always take the middle die as your results. Powers might alter this or do something extra.

    So for example, let's say you have super strength as a stat for a d8, a power die of a d6 for the power you're using, and a d6 for your current status (green). You'd roll all three of these and take whatever value is the "middle" result (so like d8 - 2, d6 - 4, d6- 5, you'd get a 4).

    Powers might do something like "deal damage equal to the lowest die, but heal an ally for the middle die" or "deal damage with the highest die, but take a penalty equal to the lowest die"

    Hey all! I've been working for the past year-and-a-half-ish on a TTRPG game in my spare time. I've finally decided to put it out there in the wild. The main reason for creating this is to flex creative and design muscles more than anything.

    For a short synopsis, the game is inspired by 16-bit era video games and tries to pull off similar aesthetic choices. It's also inspired by things like warhammer 40k, D&D, space-themed movies and TV shows.

    The Pendragon Nebula is a hot-spot for weird, psionic activity. The Mad King Artur attempts to clamp down on all the inhabitants of the solar system and enforce his will upon all his subjects, but his hold has been slipping in recent decades. Baronies, Cities, and even whole planets are in rebellion.

    Play as a psionic wielding psi-knight, space adventurer, or ship's engineer, among other options!

    It features heavy use of psionic powers, as well as a reasonably rich character progression system.

    The entire system uses only D6's, which was a design constraint i wanted to put on myself.

    It's completely free in a "pay what you want" fashion, and i would love to hear any thoughts and feedback, as well as your experience playing it!

    Hello! I'm an admin on ttrpg.network. Recently, our hosting provider let us know that they are going out of business. I'm trying to find a new provider to migrate to.

    A little bit of information, i would like:

    1. Not to self host - I travel a lot for work, and i can't guarantee that my home internet/server is always available.

    2. Prefer a managed service if possible - Again, due to the above, if something goes wrong while i'm out of town, I might not have time to troubleshoot issues for a week or more.

    My current service is a managed service, so I can open tickets if something goes wrong and have their support team look in to it. Googling, the only other service i can find that has managed services is elest.io, which mostly just looks like a wrapper for services like AWS and others, and the server configurations look like they might get pretty pricey to get anything near comparable.

    Currently, our instance uses around ~1 TB of data after backup and everything is included, and we have a 4TB quota at our current host, 8 GB of ram, and I'm not entirely sure of the CPU or anything. All for around ~$25 USD/month.

    Does anyone have any recommendations?

    "Thanks to our community for the frank feedback on Bloodlines 2 and the Premium Edition. That feedback made it clear: Lasombra and Toreador belong in the base game, so that is what we are doing," said Marco Behrmann, White Wolf Executive Vice President and Bloodlines 2 Executive Producer. > > "Sorry we couldn't get away with it" vibes

     

    Title says it. Roll for combat/battlezoo's distributor 'Diamond' has filed for bankruptcy and is keeping their (and other company's) stock to sell in a liquidation sale to keep the proceeds and pay off their debt.

    Mentioned in the video, diamond is a distributor for other TTRPG companies as well, such as paizo, goodman games, and others.

    I don't think they're the sole distributor for all of them, so i think the amount of damage it's doing is highly specific to each company, but it's still pretty shitty for companies in this industry in particular because of how hard it is to turn profits already in a niche industry.
