I have 2 pc with 2 different calibre library. Any way to see the combined calogue (i don't need to access them)

Hello,

I travel a lot for work and have a desktop pc home and a laptop i bring with me. I mostly use the laptop but when i'm home it's more convenient to use the desktop. This eventually split my library and i have some stuff here and some there. I was wondering if there is a way to sync and view the whole catalogue from both computers?

I don't actually care about having access to the books on the other pc just to see what i have

2€ to use luggage carts at Orio al Serio BGY

Today I witnessed the funniest scenes with tons of people trying to get the carts out of the rail as noone would ever dream there is a machine where you have to pay to unlock them.

I travel often all around Europe and this is the most greedy dumbfuckery I have seen in a while. Just the right welcoming slap in the face for those that land in this dumpster fire of a country

Kind of a dungeon crawler but more about guild management or building a party?

Hi all. I'm a bit confused here I am actually not entirely sure what I'm looking for.

I have never played eurogames much but lately I feel like I would enjoy more of a managemental role in what i do than to "jump in the action" myself so to say.

I am wondering if there is something, possibly without a crazy amount of fiddly bits or bookkeeping (although I do expect some of it ofcourse) about managing a guild or so, growing your heroes/party or whatever and sending them ot missions so that they can get loot/exp become more powerful and get access to higher tier zones or take control of new areas or whatever.

I can imagine there's a lot of stuff like this with a spaceships team of managing a fleet and getting planets but possibly something with a fantasy theme?

I hope what i say makes sense sorry for the confusion

[REQUEST] Looking for an idle rpg possibly with anime aesthetics

Hi all. Honestly I've just been reading the manwa pick me up which is about being isekai d in an idle rpg game and kinda made me want to start something that is not too time consuming.

I mostly read mangas in my free time and actively play mahjong souls.

I don't actually mind gacha, i can handle my fomo and don't mind throwing in 10$ now and then to support the game if i like it.

I was almost thinking of picking up azur lane again but i wouldn't mind something new. I played genshin and zzz but specifically want something managemental that doesn't take up much my time especially without dailies ( i f in hate dailies)

I was looking into epic seven, afk arena, sword x staff and idle guild master but I'd like to hear a couple opinions before spwndinf time to try. Any advice?

Can't figure how to fix these davits..

Bought last winter this boat with this setup with dinghy (admittedly a little oversized) on davits and a solar power on top.

Normally the dinghy is hanging horizontally but i took it up a bit in the marina.

As you can see the mounting of these davits is very fiddly. The end of it where the dinghy is attached is connected to the backstay that holds a bit of the weight (i had my rigger check it and said it's no problem).

Still, in a bit of waves those joints move a little sideways no matter how tight i tighten them up. Also i don't like how the forces pull on the rail straight outside (but well that's partially compensated by the backstay at least).

Given I don't have access to a proper workshop and the shops around me are quite useless, I've been brainstorming with no results on how to make it more stable.

Honestly, i am also considering removing them entirely and just pull the dinghy flat against the transom, which would leave me open to the issue of where tf to put the solar panel. I've been looking at solutions to mount it on the lifelines (as the rail is very limited) but as i sail 99% solo I'm also worried about obstacles where i want to get in and out of the boat quickly when mooring.

Still the idea of moving both the solar panels (i have also one annoying me on the deck) to the lifelines is very tempting. Or even moreso the idea of removing one and keeping just one as I have only low consumption 12v appliances onboard (12v small tv, led lights, instrumentation, pumps and isothermal fridge which i barely use in north of norway anyway, and i guess the main thing is the webasto but i rarely use it for extensive periods of time). I'm also connected to shore power mostly.

I've been wanting to modify this setup forever but i can't come up with a solution so any idea is welcome!

Importing permanently a sailboat in Norway

I sailed up to Lofoten in March and didn't think much of it (it is not required to import a foreign boat for temporary visits) . But in the meanwhile plans changed and I want to register the boat here. I do have the contact with the price. It's an old boat from 1978 and the value is under 200k. The closest custom office is in Bødo which isn't very close to be honest.

Is anyone familiar with this process? Is there any chance that the process can be done telematically without sailing all the way to Bodø?

Anything in particular I should expect?

Do I need a galvanic isolator for shore power?

I haven't been worrying about shore power much as I've always had it connected only at times when I'm with the boat. But now i plan to keep it connected throughout the winter to keep the batteries up and maybe a heater for when temperatures get really low.

The boat (fiberglass) is located in northern norway, where salinity is not crazy high but it is still saltwater.

I have a good victron battery charger / maintainer but no proper setup. So now I'm planning to make a nice plug for shore power with an appropriate circuit breaker.

I dont know much about galvanic isolators and was wondering if it's actually needed or if its more for steel/aluminium boats or whether i should get one?

What's the play here?

I kinda see why it's quite a bad wait for riichi but i felt like other options would slow me down too much. Mostly i don't quite understand why maka would prefer discarding the 7s to keep the 9s? Seeing it with open hands i see that would deal in but i couldn't possibly know at the time. Ideally i would just discard the 8p, keep the 667s, and wait for something else to come up. But to be honest i wouldn't know how to read this

u/Mehfisto666 — 2 months ago

When should I start discarding terminals in a 1-2 wait against an isolated tile?

This comes up 'fairly' often. I normally keep terminal waits until I get something better. But Maka often makes me discard the 1 in favour of an isolated tile. Which I kind of see can make sense, since keeping a 1-2 wait is quite limitating i guess? But would discarding the 1 also means i should discard the 2 after, as drawing a 3 would potentially get me in furiten later or so?

I feel like I still have a way to go to improve tile efficiency and knowing when to get rid to a terminal wait should be the next step

[ART] Ichi the Witch - "Would." this manga has been a lot of fun!

u/Mehfisto666 — 3 months ago

Which Ichihime outfit do you prefer?

I am fairly new but I have been putting in quite a few hours so I thought I'd throw in a few $$ to support the game and get something nice. And since characters are so expensive I want to get a skin for Ichihime which I really love!

I thought I'd go for Cat Warrior since it's obviously very cool but I kind of really like Spring Song too now. It looks a bit more detailed and idk.. More vibe and unique.

Just curious what you guys prefer to help me make up my mind

[Silver 4East room] Why not riichi here?

Given I realise now i was extremely lucky to tsumo the 8p, i couldn't possibly know someone had an 8p triplet in their hand and the early 5-8 wait seemed pretty good with a good hand.

Storm sail on a babystay?

Hi all! A friend of mine just got a clip on storm sail for his 28 feeter sailboat.

He plans to hoist it on the baby stay (not inner forestay which he don't have). The baby stay is attached in line with the spreaders (NOT swept back and ofc without added backstays) around half way up the mast and pretty close to the mast on the deck. This way the storm sail extends aft of the mast for roughly half its size too.

I don't think he plans to be out in actual storms at all but more of a way to depower.

He says that lots of people do use the babystay for a storm sail but i am very conflicted about this. Is this actually a thing?

Looking for something new. A small-ish box with lots of content!

Hi all! I have been reading and contributing to this sub for a long time, so i kinda feel i know about every single game in existence, but the truth is I haven't played many.

At some point i stopped getting games that my friends could maybe like and started buying games that have atleast also a solo mode.

Thing is, i live in a country and work in another. So i have most of my games back home and suddenly i find myself across the sea for weeks with lots of free time and the wrong games with me.

Table space is actually not a big issue, but box size is, as I'll have to move games around as i travel for work.

I normally like dungeon crawlers and adventure games, but i am now open also to something different. I used to like wargames a lot as a kid.

PnP and roll&write are out as i do have quite a few of them (mostly postmark games) and while i like them i value table presence and tactile part quite a lot.

At home I just had delivered (but won't be able to play until sept/oct) Fate of the Fellowship, that I'm looking forward also for multiplayer, and Radiance on the way, as i am looking forward to a heavier game (i loved lotr lcg but it felt too little replayable and didn't want to go down the rabbit whole).

Among my favs I have Bullet❤️, Bag of Dungeon 2, All is Bomb.

Last year I got Endeavor Deep Sea, not sure how much i loved it as euro game and I do love it! I play it a lot, although the brutal win conditions feel often frustrating.

Recently, here at work, I got A gentle rain, which i play often and love, and Kinfire Delve, which I was hoping would keep me company for many hours, but to my surprise I don't really like it. I like the gameplay loop but not a big fan of art and character design, and the last games got wrecked but insanely bad roll streaks that really frustrated me. Idk.

So I'm pretty much open to anything. I'm actually VERY tempted to get Deckers, which they have in a store closeby, by they want 70€ for it. And while I'm not THAT bothered by paying the price, that's like double the normal retail price (given in Norway everything is a little more expensive).

I've been looking at the white castle too. Not sure what to think of it.

I tries a while back One Deck Dungeon, but also didn't quite like it. Although fantasy stuff like this should be really up my alley.

So yeah just throwing out a blind hook here. Availability might also be somewhat of a concern, but i see they have deckers (70€) closeby and the white castle (40ish€). Not sure what else.

Not really into marvel and superhero themes, but I'd like some space themed game

Today I celebrate 1000NM with my new boat!

Bought this beauty in december, got it ready and sailed it up from Denmark starting middle of march!

Stopped in Ålesund for work 3 weeks, then I had two friends visiting for a little more than a week, where we took it easy and enjoyed the weather and sailed up slowly. These last few days I have been sailing up north more and I'm now in the beautiful little town of Berg, close to Brønnøysund. Tomorrow i should have roughly 8h of motoring (no wind on the forecast) to get to the marina where I have arranged to leave the boat as i fly back to work my next shift.

But as of last night I have officially crosse 1000 Nautical Miles with her! About 90% of which single handed.

It's been a lot of conflicted feelings. The solitude of sailing in late winter in the cold for days while watching pictures of friends having bbq in their t shirts, and the inevitable finding of more or & less small problems that you'll expect on a 60yo boat. Fixing new leaks, panicking while trying to see if some small delaminations are structural or not, finding out the engine filters have not really been changed often...

And also the joy of getting to know the boat. The relaxing times reading a book on calm days, and the excitement of surfing down big waves in 35kn winds as you gain more confidence and learn to appreciate her comfortable motion and how she hugs you and keep you safe.

And the quiet evenings at anchor or at port as all the world goes to sleep and you have your little cozy cave floating on the water..

Volvo penta marine inboard leaking diesel out of exhaust

Hi all! My new old boat's MD11C engine actually runs great. But it's a bit hard to start, makes a lot of smoke at start, but mostly it just keeps leaking fuel (could be oil but i doubt it) either out of the exhaust or together with the saltwater of the cooling system but I'd guess the first. I do also feel like fuel consumption is higher than it should be.

So far I have replaced all filters (which clearly had not been replaced in a while) and i removed the injectors and got them cleaned and checked by professionals (they said pressure test was good).

I'm a bit at a loss on what to do now. Mechanics in these area are few and expensive and it's a bit hard to get appointments and move the boat there.

Any idea what could be the cause? I'm thinking of adjusting the valves next and eventually changing the piston rings and checking head gasket. But these last ones I'd do in the winter when I'll have plenty of time. I'm not very expert but I'm learning and I'm good with tools

Getting up to hull speed

Hi all!

I have fairly recently switched from a 28ft to an old 5.5ton 34 feeter. It's a medium weight ocean racer/cruiser which I'm really liking.

It has a theoretical hull speed of 7kn, but I find it actually pretty rare to reach it. With the old md11c 28hp engine i cruise finely at 6-6.2kn at 2000rpm (max 2500rpm), and when sailing I mostly also comfortably reach around 6kn, but i think i can count the times i got over 6.5kn.

For example a couple days ago we had some nice wind like 15-16kn of tws (close to 20kn of aws) on a close reach, and i think we could only get between 6 and 6.5kn of speed.

I did get over 7 a few times in pretty overpowered conditions.

So now I'm just wondering how easy it should be to reach hull speed. Is it something that i should achieve pretty easily or if it's normal to only get there with pretty strong winds.

The hull is clean but the sails are pretty worn out. The genoa is ok but the main while solid is really blown out i can tell that it really doesn't keep the shape that should have. So I'd be inclined to think of that as the main reason but having no experience on other boats I'm just wondering
