Seems Google has opened up a new avenue for phishing spammers with URLs that look like filetypes. I'm wondering is Quad9 is looking at implementing anything specific on this, or does it fall under "All bad actor domains will be filtered out" ?

Sorry for the long ADHD post. Some comments on a recent thread has me thinking about this a lot today and I had to release into the ether.
TL;DR - Crows can be a-holes, but they are my a-holes and love having them around. Also, they demand offerings and to be worshipped to stay on their good side. LOL
L;R
I've always been an avid gardener. Flowers, plants, veggies, fruits, etc. Try to plant local native plants to attract pollinators, butterflies, local species of bumblebees, other beneficials.
Several years ago I started having problems in the garden. It started with the leafs & stems being cut off young onions. Then as peppers & cherry tomatoes ripened, they would be cut off & left there mostly untouched.
In speaking with neighbors, a few said they would see a a couple "blackbirds" hanging around the garden. I spoke to the cooperative extension who said they are probably grackles and can be garden pests. But they do eat a lot of pest insects. They said for smaller garden areas, putting out some shiny things like the reflective kids pinwheels or pieces of mirror on a string will probably keep them out of that area. Also said maybe some bells might help to startle them.
Ofc I did all of this around & in the vegetable beds & in the plants. Was a pain but I told myself I can do this as part of my planting out in the future.
Within a few days, I noticed some small reflecting pieces in the driveway & front yard. Sometimes this happens with glass when the recycling trucks are too full so figured it was something like that. I walk over to look at it and it was a piece of mirror on a string. I then notice a couple more pieces in the yard.
Now I'm thinking it was the wind. But the wind we get blows in the opposite direction. And we hadn't had more than a light breeze since we put these out. It's something I track since I have a small wind turbine attached to our electric feed. Besides, if we had a small burst of wind, this stuff wouldn't have been blown up wind.
At this point I'm thinking squirrels, neighbor kids, something along those lines. I'm not frustrated or anything, just perplexed. Anyway, I walk over to the vegetable garden and it looks like a disco ball exploded in the beds. All pieces on string were scattered and the pinwheels looked like they got run through a fan. They were from the dollar store (it was 2 or 3 for $1) so I'm "ok sure, they're just cheap, easy to tear".
I bring this up lightheartedly when another neighbor & I are chit chatting. He's like "yeah, we see some blackbirds in there having a hoot sometimes". I'm starting to get frustrated. I really don't want to put out bird netting and I don't want to have a bird unfriendly yard. I just want to them to leave the veggie garden alone. Doing some more research makes me think maybe it's totally something else.
So I buy a $20 trail cam and put it out covering one of the favorite veggie beds. Work got busy so I didn't check it immediately. Finally when I did, I got some pics of the "blackbirds" the neighbors had reported seeing. There were three of them.
One was a bit bigger than our normal blackbirds, definitely didn't have the right coloring especially around the neck. Finally another bird appears in a pic. This one is big. It's a dang crow.
So now I move the trail cam so it covers more of the fence where the adult appeared. It's a big crow, a slightly smaller crow, and a much smaller crow. After research & sending my pics to the cooperative extension, "congrats! you got a family!!" Lol. A mated pair & their juvinile kid.
The juvenile was a complete and utter a-hole. The three would come by in the morning. The parents would perch on the fence while the juvenile would swoop into the beds wreaking havoc. The juvenile reminded me of myself as an unmedicated ADHD child. Sometimes I was this sweet little child. Then I transformed into a relentless bulldozer. Don't hire a demolition company, just bring me around for a few hours and a liter of soda. Lol
This juvenile was yanking the shiny bits off plants, would fly a few feet up or away drop it, come back and cut down the onions. Then tilt his head "ooh, shiny". Rip, rip, rip. This went on for 30 minutes and then they flew off.
Now I'm feeling guilty. It's gotta be hard to have a kid like me. Obvs therapy or medication aren't on table (I checked just to be sure).
Now I'm doing research on what crows eat and resigned to letting the juvenile ruin my garden. I was surprised to find some forums about crows/corvids and how to find harmony by letting them be the fickle masters they deserve.
I learned I could lure them away by putting out food in another part of the yard. I also learned how they collect objects, especially shiny one that are obviously out of place. LOL. Also sometimes bringing gifts to their worshipers.
I put up a squirrel-proof stand, gave my offerings and it worked. The juvenile was still totally destructive but the plants he messed with were resilient. It worked out for everybody. My biggest problem after that was I had to have my house-sitting friends make sure to feed the crows when I was gone. They woukd look at me like I was crazy. "You realize they're wild animals right? They can survive without you". I would something like "yeah, maybe, but my veggies won't".
If you got this far, thx! Would love to hear other similar stories!

There are also some ridiculous suggestions which I've ignored, like going outside (why'd anyone want to do that?!), or websites that are social networks but don't resemble reddit in any way. Here are some serious ones that come up occasionally but are not quite the same as reddit:

• https://hivesocial.app mentioned here (note, Digg is no longer a social network, I'm including the link for the mention of hive social)
• Mastodon as mentioned here and various others
• MySpace mentioned in various places but when I open the site, it seems to be music recommendations and celebrity news? No thanks
• https://forums.somethingawful.com mentioned here and here
• tumblr probably deserves a mention but there's that new nsfw policy...

Let's look at these alternatives and plan a better expansion, rather than just moving to Facebook. There's no way I see this going better there, for me at least. The Reddit user base is going to be drastically changed if 3rd party apps go down. If there is a mass exodus, then Reddit will go through a huge political change and I think it will swing far right like Twitter when Musk took over.

2011 - Cat Food Press - Naarm (Melbourne), Australia (no recordings found)

I am a complete novice when it comes to coding but are there any known tools or communities to romhacking the games? Ive been interested in translating a few of the rpgs on the system but don’t find much apart from old forum posts on romhacking.net

I have wanted to play in the world of Exandria for some time just due to the rich lore behind it. I want the chance to explore this world from the point of view of the books and the influence of myself and fellow players. Preferably I would like Call of the Netherdeep to be a starting point for the rest of the story. Perhaps it could still be the ending if the DM wishes by extending the length while having us do other things in Wildemount and Marquet. I myself would love to wander around in Tal'Dorei. That being said though I really am just looking forward to having a Friday group more than anything to get to know and play with.
​
I am able to supply Explorer's Guide to Wildemount, Tal'dorei Campaign Setting Reborn and Call of the netherdeep in their digital forms on Roll20 along with Maps with Dynamic Lighting via Roll20 for Call of the Netherdeep. Additionally I own all of the sourcebooks (Apart from Volo's and Bigby Presents: Glory of Giants) and can share them with the game to make prep easier if needed.
The following requirements are expected. By all involved and so can be expected while at the table.
A mixed balance of both Roleplay and Combat favorably leaning towards the Roleplay
Simple Table Etiquette (Respecting players, 0 Politics from outside the game, Allowing others to share in the gameplay, ETC)
Access to all sourcebooks on roll20, Access to the Dunamancy subclasses and spells, and Access to Matthew Mercer's Blood Hunter class.
Character to NPC & Character to Character relationships that are cut away from when to intimate.
Generally an adult sense of humor
Voice done over Discord.
Additionally while I don't expect them to be a lore master I do hope that the DM is at least semi familiar with the setting beyond the adventure and books or at least is able to know the world well enough to come up with things on the fly in a pinch.

This is the steps I tried (link)
I don't have anything called " HID-compliant mouse "
Clicking on any of the options doesn't have any location as "Alphamouse", it's all "on Razer Naga Trinity" "Location 1" "0000.0014.0000.011.000.000.000.000.000" or "Port_#0011.Hub_#0001"
The game I'm trying to play is Diablo 4.
Please, any help would be appreciated

37 years ago, at the turn of the millennium, an asteroid that has become known as "The Harbinger" came from outside the solar system, striking straight into the sun. At the time of impact, solar flares erupted all across the sun's surface, and the star began to emit a new kind of radiation, M-radiation.
Shortly after the impact, people from across the globe in extremely stressful or traumatic experiences began to develop strange and fantastical abilities. Though these abilities almost always came with a notable physical deformity or ‘tell’ ranging from a change in eye or hair color to a complete transformation into an inhuman monstrous form.
Five years after this initial impact, and every 5 years since, the sun releases a new burst of radiation that carries upon it's solar wind several hundred stones no larger than a fist, known as 'Sun Shards' impervious stones that absorb all known forms of radiation and can impart powers upon those who find them without the need for trauma, and without leaving a ‘tell’
You are college-age heroes In the coastal city of San Sol, a metropolis that sprung up on the west coast around a research facility made to study these strange phenomena, The Sovereign Guard are appointing a new leader after the great sacrifice of Captain Quazar against the one of The Worldbreakers, and the criminal underworld has been rumbling of some vile newcomer to the city. It is a time of great change in this metropolis. What changes will you bring?

To help reduce the misconception of what sub this is I will work on a monthly Society update that will be stuck to the top of the posts. I'll be gleaming this from the blog posts, VO Discord, updates to the sub and suggestions from the sub. Here is the link to the Paizo Monthly Update blog post.

OPC Musings

Welcome back to the OP Monthly Update! I know we missed last month, that’s entirely my fault. I was on my honeymoon, and then we announced a little thing called the Pathfinder Core Remaster, and by the time I came up for air, it was already mid-May!
Luckily it’s smooth sailing now, which is a lie, because convention season is in full swing! As I write this blog we’re doing our final preparations for PaizoCon Online. I can’t wait for this show, and I’m so excited for our upcoming shows like UK Games Expo and Gen Con. Not to mention, this fall I’ll be heading to a few local conventions! More on that soon, hopefully. For now, I’ve got a supersized OP update to deliver, so let’s get started.

Digital Adventure Releases

These adventures will be available on June 28, 2023.

Pathfinder Society

Pathfinder Society Scenario #4-15: In Glorious Battle

Starfinder Society

Starfinder Society Scenario #6-03: Project Dawn Starfinder Society Scenario #6-04: Secrets Long Submerged

Pathfinder Core Remaster

Last month, we announced the Pathfinder Core Remaster: an overhaul and update of our Pathfinder Second Edition ruleset, a necessary but difficult maneuver given the events of recent months. I am sure that for many of you, the first question was “how will this affect Pathfinder Society?” The short answer is: we don’t know yet! The longer answer is that these books literally don’t exist fully yet; they won’t go to the printer for another month or so. Until they do, we can’t begin to answer these questions.
Rest assured that as soon as we can, the OP team will be diving into the new rule changes to figure out how to make the updates as seamless as possible for the community. For now, I ask for your patience on this topic. There will be many questions to answer in the weeks ahead, but we’ve got a steady hand on the metaphorical tiller.

FAQ and Boon Updates

In the quiet time before convention prep, the Pathfinder Society developers and I had some time to sit down and hammer out some updates to boons available in the boon store, as well as to handle some FAQs for the program. The full updates are available on the FAQ page, but here’s a summary of the changes:

• The Second Chance boon has been updated to indicate that purchasing and using this boon also covers the cost of recovering your body and any lost possessions if necessary. If a character is undead (such as a skeleton), they can use this boon to benefit from a similar ritual to restore themselves to their previously undead state.
• Similarly, an FAQ clarifies that in the event that your character ends a scenario alive but otherwise inaccessible (such as being imprisoned or transported to another plane), the Second Chance boon can be purchased and used to return your character to safety.
• Another FAQ clarifies which version of an item or character option to use in the event the option is reprinted in another book. In short, a hardcover printing of an option is considered the standard option unless otherwise stated. This applies to both Pathfinder and Starfinder Society.
• The Secondary Initiation boon has also been clarified to cover how it handles entry requirements for organizations (it handwaves them as occurring offscreen) and which ranks PCs can choose to be within organizations (anything reasonable is fair game, but no, your PCs are not fourth-mark Firebrands).
• Finally, we have issued one minor clarification to the Magic Arrow feat from the Pathfinder Advanced Player’s Guide, which you can find on the Character Options page as normal.

Starfinder Society Year 6 Updates

Program Changes

SFS Year 6 launched at PaizoCon Online! Hopefully, anyway; I’m writing this before the show, so if a dinosaur attacks, someone let future me know. The following Starfinder species are now considered “always available”: gnoll, hanakan, kiirinta, quorlu, raxilite, shimreen. Players are free to build characters of these species as often as they like; as always, characters with an Admittance Boon for these species gain an additional +2 to one ability score immediately.
The Achievement Point cost for a boon to play a character of the following species has been reduced to 80 Achievement Points: astriapi, cephalume, contemplative, trox, uplifted bear, urog. Meanwhile, the following species are now playable with the purchase of a boon from the online Boon Store: entu colony, huitz’plina, grippli, kitsune, kobold, psacynoid, samsaran, scyphozoan, trinir, and tryziarka.
Finally, a few more boons have been added to the Boon Store! Starfinders who enjoy having a permanent emblem of their position can now purchase the Marked Starfinder boon for 2 AcP after playing at least one session to gain a Society Subdermal Graft. Additionally, characters can now undergo a Training Montage (or Extended Training Montage) to retrain their character’s abilities! These provide more robust retraining options than the previously available mnemonic editor. Full text of these boons, as always, can be found on the Starfinder Society FAQ page.
The Guide to Organized Play: Starfinder Society has been updated with all these changes, as well as a brand-new overhaul and visual upgrade! Incredible thanks to Jared Thaler and Peter Nalepa, both of whom have worked very hard to make the guide more user-friendly and accessible. They’ve created a feedback thread on the forums for comments or questions.

First Seeker Election

Last month we formally announced Starfinder Society #6-06: Tomorrow’s Seekers! This scenario will allow you to meet the four PCs who were selected to vie for the title of First Seeker. You may note my name on the cover as the author; I’m so excited for this adventure and for you all to meet these wonderful colorful characters!
Look for some upcoming blogs where we’ll be revealing the candidates, their platforms, and a bit more about them. Campaign season begins when the ballot opens at Gen Con (August 1–4), and the voting period will close in mid-October. If you want to cast your vote, don’t miss your chance to play the scenario in that two-month period!

Sanctioning

One of the reasons we could get away with missing April’s blog was that it was a pretty quiet month on the release front! Luckily, we’ve got some new toys for you this month!
For Pathfinder Society, this month’s new release is the brand-new standalone adventure, The Enmity Cycle. The sanctioning documents for this adventure are just waiting to be exported; once they are, we’ll be sure to add them to the product page.
On the Starfinder side, the new hardcover rulebook Starfinder Ports of Call has been released and sanctioned for play! Visit the Character Options page for all the details. While you’re there, why not check out the new options from the Drift Hackers Adventure Path, which are also now sanctioned! Chronicle sheets for players and GMs will also be available on the product page for the AP as soon as they’re exported.
Coming up next, we’ll be getting sanctioning documents out for the Free RPG Day adventures (foreshadowing for the next section)! After that, for Pathfinder Society we’ve got the Stolen Fate Adventure Path and Pathfinder Lost Omens Highhelm on the docket, and Starfinder Society will be pretty quiet until the fall!

Free RPG Day

June 24 is Free RPG Day here in the United States! This initiative provides retailers with exclusive access to free RPG products from a number of companies, including Paizo. We have two adventures in this year’s kit: A Few Flowers Morefor Pathfinder and Operation: Seaside Park for Starfinder
If your store is participating in this event, sanctioning documents and chronicle sheets will be available prior to the event! You’ll be able to get credit for your Organized Play characters after participating in these adventures. Free RPG Day is a great way to kickstart a new RPG group at a store, so we encourage you all to head to a participating retailerfor the event!

GM Recognition

At PaizoCon Online last weekend, I awarded three individuals with brand new Campaign Coins and Organized Play IDs. We award these coins to members of the community who have gone above and beyond to provide an exceptional program to the community at large. Campaign Coins are awarded based on nominations; if you believe someone in your community is deserving of this award (whether or not they are a Venture Officer), send an email to organizedplay[at]paizo[dot]com with their name and reasons.
Congratulations to: Jofiane “Fi,” who now holds a Campaign Coin and Organized Play ID #887 Milan Badzic, who now holds a Campaign Coin and Organized Play ID #888 and Harmeshver “Resh” Singh, who now holds a Campaign Coin and Organized Play ID #889

GM Ranks

Whether stars, novas, or glyphs, achieving a 5 ranking in any program involves a substantial amount of time. To achieve the 5th milestone, a GM must run 150 games, of which at least 50 must be unique scenarios and 10 special scenarios, as well as run between one and three games for Venture-Captains (program dependent). A conservative estimate of the time needed to reach the 5th milestone is 650 hours!
This month, we had one GM earn their 5th Nova for Starfinder Society and one earn their 5th Glyph for Pathfinder Society (second edition).
5th Nova (SFS): Terry T 5th Glyph (PFS2): Tim Munsie (TMun)
Congratulations to our outstanding GMs and volunteers!

Conventions

It’s convention season! As this blog is posted, I’ll be getting ready for my first games at UK Games Expo in Birmingham. It’s my first official trip abroad and I can’t wait to meet our European community! If you’re in the area, come say hi!
We've also announced PaizoCon South Pacific, running from June 30–July 2 in Sydney, Australia! While I won’t be attending (this year...), the Paizo community will be turning out for a great time.
And of course, there are tons of local conventions in your area! Check out our conventions calendar to see what events are happening near you and go roll some dice.
That’s quite enough from me—thanks for sticking with the supersized update. There’s a reason we try to do these monthly! Until next time, Explore! Report! Cooperate! And have a spot of tea!
Alex Speidel Organized Play Coordinator
