    The US ATBM system is designed to stop "rogue" launches and/or North Korea. - Iran once they get them.
  2. Things That Are Just Annoying

    I just got up to take more analgesics. My generic "I'm an old fart" lower back pain is not just generic today. Hurts both sides and is higher up the back than normal. Walking is sub-optimal for the day.

    Which would bring out the mothering/being a good friend instinct in Sarah. Might not be a bad start.
  4. Things That Are Just Annoying

    I woke up with 3 bruises and a sprained wrist. Nothing broken, but I ache all over. One hour before next dose of analgesics. Not a happy badger.
  5. Discussion of Military, real or fictional

    As opposed the the US which just a few batteries of NASAMS (which you should note, is not a US system) for all of the DC metro area and a few Stinger teams around the White House. Granted there is a major amount of USAF fighter A/C in the area.
  6. Things That Are Just Annoying

    I took analgesics 4 hours ago. They have worn off. Why can't pain drugs last as long as the safe duration of the drug? My knee and wrist are both throbbing in sync with each other.
  7. NP Comic for Thursday, Aug 29, 2024

    I watched the preview. I think I'll pass.
  8. Things That Are Just Annoying

    I've not a nice bruise showing up on my right knee. Unlike normal, it's on the inside of the leg. Gonna lay down so I can stop bending it.

    700km range. That puts most European Russia in range
  10. Traveller based games.

    Well, they right now have 4 license in effect. The OGL, left over from 1st editions SRD, the "Traveller's Aid Society / Community Content License,(https://legacy.drivethrurpg.com/cc/5/Travellers-Aid-Society) which is for things on DriveThruRPG, where they take 50% of your sales money, a license for using the words Traveller in you product (and is separate from the Community Content) that they currently are only offering to "established" companies and the Fair Use policy, which is for free fan stuff on the web. The Fair Use Policy was established by Marc Miller himself and was specifically carried over when he transferred Traveller to Mongoose. None of these apply to my product, other than the OGL, which is flaky given that WotC tried to drop it once before. Having a product that depends on the good will of Hasbro doesn't strike me as a good idea. Now WotC released the 5.1 SRD https://www.dndbeyond.com/resources/1781-systems-reference-document-srd) under the CC BY-SA 4 license with is what Stellagama Publishing did with "Faster Than Light:Nomad" (https://legacy.drivethrurpg.com/product/479380/Faster-Than-Light-Nomad) and their Sword and Sorcery game "Barbaric:2nd Ed" (https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/450864/barbaric-2nd-edition) means I have all source I need to make "Edge of Imperial Space". However character creation is gonna need a major revamp. Basic game mechanic is the same, more or less.
  11. Things That Are Just Annoying

    My right wrist is starting to throb. Might go down to the clinic and see if it's cracked or something assuming the analgesics I just took don't take effect in a couple of hours or so.

    <watches preview.> Maybe not

    <google> That's a real film? And you can watch it for free on YouTube? I know what I may be doing this afternoon.

    More like 16.
  15. Things That Are Just Annoying

    My "new" office chair just broke, making me fall backwards. Thankfully I still have my older chair, which has issues, but still is usable. Ordered a replacement from a different company.
  16. NP Comic for Thursday, Aug 29, 2024

    Bowling is one of those sports where raw enthusiasm can get pretty far.
  17. NP Comic for Tuesday, Aug 27, 2024

    To be fair <to be fairrrrrrtm Hicks on Letterkeny> Diane hasn't really known about her magic all that long. Less than a week comic time, unless there was a longer time skip that I missed.

    "OK, The Human got out of bed before 9:30. He's still being a lazy bum." - Explorer the Cat.

    Yes, talk to Sarah, she trying to talk to you.

    For extra fun Ukraine now claims they can hit Moscow with a ballistic missile. https://www.intellinews.com/ukraine-develops-its-first-ballistic-missile-that-can-hit-moscow-340710/

  24. Traveller based games.

    Due to the whole "The OGL is unstable" thing, plus some weirdness of the Mongoose licensing, I'm gonna be basing my space fantasy game on "Faster than Light:Nomad", which has a SRD licensed under the CC:4, instead of the Traveller SRD. Gonna take some work. https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/479380/faster-than-light-nomad
