Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Dude read the rules of woman only community and decided to post anywayEnglish
0·9 months agoI don’t think people are bothered by “female coworker”, which is perfectly normal. It’s the reference to a “female-only” community, when the actual com is called WomensStuff and describes itself as “women only” and “a women’s community”.
Guh, I think I even have that sharpener. But it’s been in a box since I’ve moved house years ago an I’ve always assumed it was too late for it to save them. You’ve inspired me to find it and give it a go! Thanks!
I’ve got a couple of really good chef’s knives, but I’ve been a terrible failure at keeping them sharp over the decade. I was trying to finely dice an onion yesterday and felt like I was back in a student flat with a blunt handmedown. I think they’ve gone past the stage of just using a regular sharpener, but I don’t know where I can get them re-edged.
Anyone come up with a good measure of distance that makes the speed of light a nice round number? I like the metric system, but the meter feels pretty arbitrary. We could do better!
If anyone is curious (as I was):

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Did the fighter/rogue/cleric/wizard core and its various iterations come from tournament play?
1·1 year agoI think it was just that those were the four main classes in 1st and 2nd edition, with others seen as variations of those (e.g. paladins / rangers were basically fighter subclasses). In the Basic D&D line, they were the only four human classes.
Due to this, adventure designers would include challenges that took advantage of thief skills, or Turn Undead, or whatever, to help all players contribute. Therefore, a smart party would have a mix of the main classes, because they knew they’d encounter obstacles that needed them (although it was never hard and fast, and a good adventure had multiple routes to victory.)

1·2 years agoCool idea. I still use imdb to check stuff but that site is bloated as hell, I’d love a clean alternative.
