Yeah, I know that I am complicated. Sorry. I really think too much sometimes. Can be annoying for everyone, even myself

That is the issue and the source of my confusion. The god in question did not change the gender, it just created avatars. Those are sometimes created in a male form and sometimes in a female. But the god itself never changed gender (as far as I could find in the lore). Avatars are, as far as I know, entities that can be infused and controlled by the will of the god but it is not the god itself. Just like a human that controls a character in a video game, those characters are the avatars of the player but not the player himself.

I don’t assume a mortal gender for any god, neither in real religions nor in fictional ones, I can’t even see how a concept like gender (or sex) even would be possible at all with a formless/shapeless entity like a god. The entity would be beyond and above our puny mortal classifications and limitations of our bodys. It would be like asking what gender water has and then saying that water is trans or genderfluid because ice sculptures in male and female form exist.

For me the sex and/or gender of an god is: god

But maybe my main issue is that overanalize it, I often have that problem unfortunately. I hope that I have not said anything bad or hurt/angered anyone. If it happend then only because of my limited knowledge not out of ill intend.

I used the male form because that’s what is used in official texts in this case, so no assumption from my side.

Thank you

Correlon is a god who uses avatars of both Sex and/or Gender. I don’t see how that makes him trans in any way, because his avatars are not much more as if a player creates a character with a different Sex and/or Gender for his interaction in the gameworld. That doesn’t makes the player trans. So how does it make Correlon trans?

Have I missed anything in the lore? Please don’t missunderstand me, I don’t want to speak against trans or want to be seen as anti-trans in any way. I literally really don’t understand this part and just ask for information or clarification.

I migrated two years ago from tt-rss to freshrss and have never looked back. It just works!

It could be a extremely big stalactite with tunnels and rooms inside… Or the characters were shrunken to fit into a normal stalactite with tunnels and rooms inside

My servers and NAS were created long before Docker was a thing, and as I am running them on a rolling release distribution there never was a reason to change anything. It works perfectly fine the way it is, and it will most likely run perfectly fine the next 10+ years too.

Well I am planning, when I find the time to research a good successor, to replace my aging HPE ProLiant MicroServer Gen8 that I use as Homeserver/NAS. Maybe I will then setup everything clean and migrate the services to docker/podman/whatever is fancy then. But most likely I will only transfer all the disks and keep the old system running on newer hardware. Life is short…

And there are more then enough systems out there for everyone to find his perfect match and then some.

In general I don’t really like Pen&Paper RPGs where you need miniatures (and for worse range finder tools) to play them. But that is a me thing, don’t read my words as that I want to say D&D should change. Far away from that, D&D is a great game and I love it on the PC (where it IMHO only works, not at the table)

If I think more about it i come to conclusion that is not really the math per se, but what I find boring is that 90% of the rules (measured by feeling) are about battle and battle takes such a huge and detailed part in the game.

That is one reason I don’t like D&D, it is a glorified boardgame the hides it’s wargame roots under a very thin layer. I like tactical rpg on the computer but investing that level of math and detail in a pen & paper game is so boring, for me at least.

Thank you for this information, I have added it to my original comment.

My primary source at the time of posting was a sentence in the Wikipedia[1] but I have added the link to the trademark[2] that was provided by Kichae and rephrased my text now.

Thank you for reminding me that I should always properly check my sources and provide all information.

The phrase “Dungeon Master” is a registered trademark[1] by the rights holders of Dungeons and Dragons. DM is the abbreviation of that, and most likely safe to use. Game Master (GM) is used as a generic (and game agnostic) term.

Edit: I have (twice) edited this now after additional information from others (thank you Kichae for the link to the Dungeon Master trademark) was posted on this thread.

Zola really is great, I have started to work with it and it is so much easier to grasp and to get results with. Thanks a lot for pointing me to Zola!

I will look into that too, thank you for the suggestion

A new homepage for the business of my wife.

I plan to use Hugo for it, I just wish the documentation would be better.

For the homepage I need a few additional “non-blog” pages and from the documentation I am not sure how to do that the best way.

But to be honest, I have not really looked deeper into that, so it is very possible that I just missed something.

I only bind applications to ports on the Internet facing network interfaces that need to be reachable from outside, and have all other ports closed because nothing is listening on them. A firewall in this case would bring me no further protection from external threats, because all those ports have to be open in the firewall too.

But Linux comes with a firewall build in, so I use it even if it is not strictly needed with my strict port management regime for my services. And a firewall has the added benefit to limit outgoing network traffic to only allowed ports/applications.

Solar System objects for my local network and names of extra solar objects for my offside servers. With all the moons and named trans neptunian objects in the solar system I so far had no issues finding a hostname candidate.

German router and network products company AVM learned the hard way that this is a bad idea. They use fritz.box for their router interface page and it was great until tld .box became publicly available and somebody registered fritz.box.

Having a reserved local/internal only tld is really great to prevent such issues.
