Why are you hating on poor people? Do you think punching down makes good comedy?

And yet very few people actually get to launch nukes these days. One rule for them and another for us.

It’s all human readable abstractions for 0s and 1s, isn’t it? Unless you’re working with quantum computers.

We want to draw the line somewhere, so my mum on FB doesn’t call herself a programmer for creating a post, but it’s not very clear where to put that line. I think it has to depend on the context, you could tell your hairdresser you’re a programmer to avoid the unnecessary details, but wouldn’t describe it as such in a job interview.

Even this isn’t exactly correct - that would allow you to cast reaction spells on your turn, but the rules do not.

When you cast a leveled spell using a bonus action, the only other spells you can cast on that turn is a cantrip, with your action.

The difference is you can’t cast more leveled spells at all, and you can’t cast any spells including cantrips if they don’t use an action. That last part doesn’t usually matter, unless you have multiple bonus actions, or reaction cantrips (which appeared in the playtest of next edition).

Edited to reduce misinformation, left the wrong in place so corrections make sense

I’d like to assume the compliance plan involves that - or at least moving it to a safer orbit - but it’s probably more likely the plan is just saying “we won’t do it again”.

Yeah they’re trying to sell us the idea that things are magical and wonderful instead of the most squeezed we’ve ever been.

Not that person, but the update is really good.

Throwing weapons are decent to use now (they were awful when they were added). I like the new skill tree and while I’m feeling a bit constrained by the cyberware limits I can see how it would make me feel much more powerful if I built towards it, instead of just having ED and SC limits I can easily exceed.

I lost pretty quickly on my first attempt, but I’m feeling confident about my second run! I’d let you know how it gets on, but…

I’ll believe it when they execute one
