Deck of Many Things
StormKnight replied to n0Mad's topic in Movies, Books, Art, TV, Gaming and Computers
1. Lose 10,000 experience points; draw again. The payment and draw are mandatory! Fuck. Me. Sideways. 2. Know the answer to your next dilemma. This plaque empowers the character drawing it with the ability to call upon supernatural wisdom to solve any single problem or answer fully any question whenever he or she so requests. Whether the information gained can be successfully acted upon is another question entirely. What are the winning lottery numbers for this week's PowerBall? 3. Change alignment or be judged. As "weighed in the balance and found wanting", the character must change , and perform accordingly, to a radically different alignment, i.e. lawful-chaotic, good-evil, neutral-non-neutral. Failure brings judgment, and if there is substantial deviation from professed alignment, the character will be destroyed permanently. Well, I have lived the best that I could. *lightning bolt near misses* I swear I will do better!!! 4. Gain 10,000 experience points; draw again. This plaque actually makes either pack more beneficial if the experience point award is taken. It is always discared when drawn, unlike the others except the Fool. OK, that gets me a bit better than break even. 5. You are imprisoned. This signifies imprisonment -- either by spell or by some creature/being at your option. All gear and spells will be stripped from the victim in any case. The deck disappears. I would like to be imprisoned by one of the goddesses of love of good alignment, please. (Hey, if I am going to be stripped of gear and spells, I might as well be have a sexy captor.) -

He was arrested by a civilian force as a foreign national committing a crime. If my memory serves about the Geneva Conventions in the civilian arena outside of spies (who have very few rights at all if caught,) I believe, (and someone check me on this,) the fact he was arrested by civilian law enforcement (not a military force,) in US airspace/territory makes him subject to our laws and rights (link to General Article 3 summary decisions of the Conventions.) Please note the line "requires that punitive sentences and executions (i.e., criminal punishments) be pronounced only by a 'regularly constituted court' that 'afford all the judicial guarantees … recognized as indispensable by civilized peoples.'” The decision in 2006 was in response to Guantanamo Bay and Abu Gharib. That being said, gut reaction is to lock him up in the SuperMax. The list of federal executable offenses is here. Terrorism is not one of executable crimes, unless death is involved (and for the sake of the rest of the people on the plane, I am glad that didn't happen.)

I know, man. I know. And not in a good way, either.

Gordon Lightfoot wrote it, but I love her rendition of it.

Considering this is the multimedia part of DGN, I am surprised that there isn't a thread that talks about this. Come on, music is a lot of the scene's life. So I invite all audiophiles, people who rig for concerts, people who design band systems, DJ's who love their kits or sets, and everyone else to share insight on audio technology. Be it from cartridges for turntables to the latest in speakers, from Sharp and generics to Klipsch and Bang and Olufsen, and so on, I wanted to hear what opinions are about it. Along with the people who sell it and maintain the equipment. What inspired me to start this? (and as a starting point): I recently sent my 21-year old receiver (Kenwood KR-107R,) into a shop for maintenance, switch and contact cleaning, which was causing a hum from through the audio jacks that receive from VCR/DVD sound. The cleaning was in preparation for storage as a backup receiver (not parting with it, personal reasons,) in light of the recent purchase of a THX rated receiver of the same power (Kenwood KV-6070, ca. 2002.) From discussion with the guy doing the maintenance, if you are going with transistor amplifier units, going with ones made in the late 70's to early 90's are the way to go in line of durability and over-engineering. Starting in the 90's, the quality started to go down a bit. Now given that the best amplifiers by most opinion are tubes (impractical for moving kits and ones that are subject to extreme hot/cold,) what are other opinions on transistor amplifiers? are the older ones better?
