I stufferd a store in for my players to shop (Foundry) because it had been a while, and just grabbed a pre-built one and tossed it in...

they spent the night planning and implementing a massive heist because one item cost too much for them to afford and they wanted it..... I had NOTHING for this (half the players beliefs on the shopkeeper, how they worked and how they could be robbed was based on some crappy random generated name and they had made "assumptions"...)

Found out later they thought I planned it all

I use exclamations in Windows ("!!first" will be sorted above "!second" for example)

and "I’m curious what’s the need for the folder to be sorted first that something like folder pinning or tagging"

Not sure what "tagging" would be in a windows perspective, does it have that? and "pinning" could be using the Quick Access bar I guess which I do for folders I want access to GLOBALLY, but if I have many sub-folders, and in the context of THAT FOLDER I am interested in several more than the rest, but outside that folder I don't care less about them, I'll use exclamations so I can find them easier

(Example, I have a TTRPG folder of art assets for maps from dozens of different sources, each with own naming conventions, and two folders !!Sorted and !Working, as I slowly go though the list to find, name, sort, discard and otherwise clean up the list so I can find what I want. If it was called "Sorted" it would be in the middle of the folder structure and a pain to find when I need it, but I also NEVER NEED that sub-folder unless I am working on cleaning up/sorting that data)

“trying to be gritty and shocking”.

Yeah that was our take away. Overly gory, very little of the humor from the game. My wife abandoned it after 3/4 an episode (too much gratuitous violence for her) and I probably wont both with the rest

If you love that sort of hard core violence graphically depicted, with imaginative effects such as pushing a gun into someones head, and then shooting a hole through that (briefly) still live persons head, killing a few more people this may be your cup of tea.

Fidonet all the way initially (At the time it was faster to write your terminal program than to load it off tape every time you started the computer. Was only like 5 lines.)

But the with the "Internet" I was the first (I think, never saw any others) to write and release a Windows 3.1 program for Finger

Ok wow didn't realise it was that wide spread. These were just some locals talking about stuff and he was proud they had gotton a good deal on seconds sweets. Feeding left over stuff, bread, cakes, seemed common place.

I was horrified about the plastic but seems to be pretty normal!

This sort of thing still happens

I've had a chat with a farmer in Australia where they were feeding dariy cows boiled sweets (He got access to some sort container load of factory seconds, still with the plastic on, farmer wasn't going to remove the plastic from millions of boiled lollies)

I would have been faster on that joke the generator ran out of petrol last night and but power, mobile and internet only just came back

They are just warning you about the existence of Taralgon and Vondonga

Is something like this difficult to set up?

I grabbed a Linux Mint install, and followed this guide to install Plex on it

It is a "desktop" install, really I know you don't NEED a GUI yadayada, but it was very easy and got my foot in the door of Linux. It's worked well for me, faster than the older Windows install

because her hobby was Taylor Swift.

What on earth does THAT mean?
