    I guess since in many cases you do actually need to roll a dice, like when peeforming a touch or ranged touch spell, people just assume it always happens.

    And even in this case. Cure wounds is a spell like any other and it is subject to a will saving throw. So to be correct the pc that was targeted by the spell would indeed roll in order to save from the unintended heal - but thats really just assuming the spell could be used like this, which in my interpretation it cannot.

    So again, even if the caster rolls no dice in this case, the target could. I think this leads to people thinking there must always be a roll.

    Edit: fix paragraphs








  • From what I can tell, not much. They use dashes “-” instead of pluses “+”.

    But neither of these two options provide you with much privacy. Plus addresses, as others have pointed out, can be automatically stripped (just delete everything after the plus sign) and you get the real email behind it.

    This service specifically I dont know the details, but it seems there is a unique prefix per user, but no “real email”. So for instance if you use gmail you can have “sunnie@gmail.com” as your real email. You then use “sunnie+lemmy@gmail.com” for your lemmy account. If that email gets leaked out somehow, people can easily tell your real email address is “sunnie@gmail.com

    This service seems to do something very similar with the difference there is no base email, so there isnt a “sunnie@port87.com”, there will only be “sunny-lemmy@port87.com”. It is worth pointing out you might still be tracked because all your emails will be prefixed with “sunny”. So although spammers wont be able to figure out your real email address they can just try something like “something-reddit@port87.com”, and if multiple of your addresses leak it will be easy to link them all up to the same person.

    This also creates A LOT of lock in. Because if the service shuts down you now have dozens of services for which you don’t have means to access the emails anymore.







  • Thank you for your reply!

    Personally I am fine with nginx configuration, at least when using containers. The syntax is fine and all I need to do is map one file into the container

    But I took a look at the automatic cert feature and wow, that is very, very nice. I may give caddy a try for this feature only - it would simplify my current setup.

    I am also surprised it allows using HTTPS over port 443 for cert renewal. I didnt even know this was possible, so I was always stuck with DNS challanges.

    So again, thanks for your reply!



  • Honest question: why not use nginx?

    I have run it in so many different scenarios, both professionally and personally, its crazy. Nginx has never failed me, literally. My homeserver is quite limited but nginx has a very small footprint, it performs beautifully well and it satisfies all my hosting, proxying, redirecting and streaming needs.

    It works for modern and legacy applications, custom code, webhosting, supports all the modern features and its configuration is very easy with literal thousandsof examples available online.

    Apache probably can do all that but I hate how unintuitive its configuration is to me personally. HAproxy cant do half the stuff nginx does.

    As for caddy Ive heard of it but never really used it. What does it offer that nginx doesnt?




  • Not familiar with obsidian nor logsec, but silverbullet is a programmable notebook. Everything is indexed and can be used, acessed and manipulated using javascript.

    You can then write queries to fetch the data and then use templates to display it.

    I have a very simple query that displays all my pending tasks for each project I am working on.

    I also have created a template for displaying ttrpg character sheets, and the data is polulated by a yaml object which contains the actual character data. Custom javascript code automatically calculates stats, skills, checks and carry weight for me.

    So basically I believe that you can do what you’re looking for on silverbullet but maybe not out of the box.
