You crouch down for a closer look at the footprints. They're fresh, but it's difficult to make out where they're heading in the dim light.

Let's have your first dice roll.

Roll a d20 and add your Wisdom modifier (+1). This is a Survival check to see how well you can follow the tracks.

What did you get?

-Don't need a real d20 just use a rand gen or free dice webapp

After a few steps, the passage splits in two.

From the left, you hear something scraping against stone. To the right, there's a faint orange glow, like a fire.

You also notice fresh footprints in the mud.

What do you do?

  • ** One thing to remember this took me ages to break out of. You can do anything within the rules of the world. This sort of thing will become second nature. But you could have taken a charred log from the fire for example to use as a torch.

Of course the real fun is when you actively play your character so if you're playing a dumb barbarian who just rushes in even though you know the right thing to do ask yourself do they? :D **

Depends on where your DM and group lies but really it's a group narrative. I like to think of playstyles as being a gradient from rules -> cools some groups will have the rules really dictate the game play others will forgo an out come a little bit if it makes the story better. Neither is bad and generally DM's will balance this.

You do a thing ideally adding enough detail for everyone to work with, roll against the stats to see how well that goes. 1's have created some of the most memorable situations for me so don't think of it as winning learn to roll with the punches.

I'll run you through a quick 4 turn scenario here if you like here's your char sheet.

Level 1 Fighter

Name: Cinoreus

Health: 12 HP

Armour Class: 16 (enemies need to roll 16 or higher to hit you)

Stats

Strength: +3

Dexterity: +1

Constitution: +2

Intelligence: +0

Wisdom: +1

Charisma: -1

Equipment

Longsword: +5 to hit, 1d8+3 damage

Crossbow: +3 to hit, 1d8+1 damage

Shield

Healing potion: restores 2d4+2 HP

How it works

You tell me what you want to do. If there's a chance of failure, I'll ask you to roll a d20 (20-sided die) and add a modifier from your stats.

You don't need to pick from a list of actions. Just tell me what your character tries to do.

You've woken up from your hedge camp early morning it's still dark but the fire has died and in the blue monotone hue of the woodland morning you notice a cave entrance you couldn't see last night.

By and large flathubs metadata has allowed for pretty transparent overviews. Stick the same filtering that safe and unsafe containers have and everyone retains a clear choice.

Sadly not true, people will tear apart the smallest mistakes.

Here's a happy chappy regardless

I'm a it ops manager and it's going to take me years to undo the ball of yarn left by their previous ms certified "professionals" . Ms stack allowed them to be easily hacked last year and I've no intention of having that be a me problem.

Omarchy has changed its Kitty configuration after a security issue was identified with allow_remote_control yes.

That setting allows Kitty’s remote-control protocol to accept commands from terminal output, meaning untrusted output could potentially execute commands as the current user. Kitty itself defaults this setting to no; the exposure came from Omarchy explicitly enabling it so other parts of the desktop could query the active terminal’s working directory.

The change disables remote control by default and migrates existing explicit yes settings to no. Users affected by the migration need to fully close and reopen Kitty, as existing processes remain exposed until they exit.

There is a small trade-off: Omarchy can no longer reliably determine the active Kitty tab/pane’s working directory via its socket, so new terminal or Files launches may occasionally fall back to the home directory.

The associated migration tests reportedly pass, although no live Kitty test was run in the test environment.
