Any of the "Pathfinder Adventure Card Game" base sets will do, ie "Pathfinder Adventure Card Game: Skull & Shackles Base Set" or "Pathfinder Adventure Card Game: Ride of the Runelords". They come in a big square box and if you enjoy it you can expand gameplay with the smaller "Expansion Packs" which add more items/monsters/missions to the story.

Specifically they're called "Pathfinder Adventure Card Game" and there are multiple base sets. https://www.amazon.com/Paizo-Publishing-Pathfinder-Adventure-Card/dp/1601256477

And if you enjoy if you can buy the smaller "Expansion Packs" which extend the arc out with more items and battles.

My base set is Rise of the Runelords which looks to be out of print but easy to find on ebay.

That's all? I thought that thing was the size of a moon.

I personally had good experience playing the Pathfinder card game with my partner. You choose from one of the characters' decks, taking on their unique items/stats then each game session you play lasts maybe half an hour to an hour. You may find loot along the way which your character keeps for the game next session. Your characters level up along the way, allow you to do things like, say, roll a D6 on attack instead of a D4. Of course the monsters get more difficult along the way as well. There's a simple overworld map and story line to follow so you can track your progress along the way.

There's also a pen and paper version of Pathfinder which I think makes a gentle introduction into the DnD world for those looking to explore that genre but don't necessarily want to dive in head first.

Reminds me of how historical American and English dishes would put a whole onion bulb in with the food to cook (for flavor) only for it to be discarded before serving the dish. Unless they fed the discards to livestock I think it contradicts the stereotype that our ancestors were always frugal and used everything. On the other hand, the dishes that survived in written recipes were often dishes of the wealthy.

SLPT: Replace your headlights with infrared lights and an infrared camera on your dashboard so you don't blind approaching drivers.

How can that be their natural habitat? It's not a parking lot or a green lawn covered in goose poop.

Finally an actual r/showerthought style post and not a Lemmy meta post or TIL.

On Windows, nothing beats foobar for playback, tagging, and conversion support. I use Deadbeef which is like the Foobar of Linux. It has a similar user interface and a playlist format conversion tool as well. VLC also converted audio if I remember correctly?
