  • I took a breaking DM’ing after running a group for nearly a decade. During that time I started playing 40K. Which, some may not know this, is quite expensive if you don’t know how to 3d print. So I picked up the hobby.

    Now that I want to DM again many of my players came to prefer virtual over in person. It makes me sad because I could do stuff like this now without too much effort. What gives?






  • I keep an Android and iPhone. Apps tend to be more polished/available on iOS versus Android. However, if you don’t plan on installing your own OS, use the UI customization (launchers and what not), or install apps via .apks — which isn a large percentage of the population — an iPhone is fine. Heck, you may save money if you either sell it second hand to finance your new phone, or use it until it doesn’t receive support. Heck, I’m in the camp of spending $799 on a handset in 2019 that will get major updates through 2026 and security updates through 2028/9 (should Apple follow their support pattern, of course).

    Don’t get me wrong, I like my Pixel with GrapheneOS with its perfectly tuned UI, but if I’m flying out for a weekend trip — I’m bringing my iPhone along for reliability, and integration with the world around me.
