Of course I understand that, but it just felt like the original version we were handed (without an actual link or quote) seemed engineered to make it sound as bad as possible. None of the articles mention the word child for example, that's pure editorializing on the part of Bay12.

Hey, does pathfinder  have an 'oracle'?  Or scryer or other nonevil human who can learn peoples names/faces/personal details from afar without too much ritual?

Whats it called, and do they take moneys for services on a regular basis?

Um, probably any of the caster classes that have access to divinations? Dunno about more specific than that, but presumably much of any caster able to use applicable abilities could fit the role.

Yeah, divination spells are the way to go, though IIRC most of them require some sort of connection or prior knowledge of the subject to target them specifically ("the person who stole my sweetroll" is not a valid target, but "the person whom this lock of hair belongs to" is). Yes, you can usually buy spellcasting services in larger cities.

Of course, the spells have limitations. The GM can very well create a "true oracle" (to distinguish from the Oracle class) who doesn't suffer from those limitations, as a singular character.

I've slept, not quite uninterrupted (was awake for maybe a combined 2 hours in there), but close to it, from about 10:30 pm last night until roughly now, around 4:20 pm the next day. Something approaching sixteen hours not-quite-straight? Still kinda' feel like taking a nap, too :-\

I do that once every few years, when I have a fever. You wake up a bit tired, maybe a bit thirsty, then you're just better.

This has happened to me the last several nights and i’n still sick.

You lie, man, and I am saddened.

So a thing I ordered from ebay is running a month late, I open up a support ticket with them on the guest account I used when I ordered it. Now it asks me to log in to view the request, but since I made a proper account after the fact, once I log in it doesn't mark the purchase as existing so it throws up an error on the support page. And from my understanding, there seems to be no way to add previous guest purchases to an account, despite having used the same goddamn info and e-mail adress to make them.

Who the hell designs these systems ffs.

I think I'm out of practice with hot weather.
Normally I love it, but it's been 37-38 degrees today and I have pretty much slept all day. Not sure how much of that is from the heat and how much is from me going to sleep late and waking up early...
Also, the heat has even infiltrated my dreams.

Also, rather than a child it was a 19 year old as far as the articles state/imply

I read "is now 19", and also that it was too young for Japan. Probably not a child, but I did refer to people in their 20's as kids earlier today (plus, "college kids"). Being old messes with your sense of age.

I spiked my phone to the ground last night. I am not proud of this. I hope it was a momentary brain fuckup but I'm not sure.

Broke the digitizer and LCD but not the glass, thankfully. Phone body is heavy and metal and now sports a fashionable bend. It would cost more to fix than it's worth, so bye bye everything that was on the internal storage.

So there's this thing called Android 8 or 9, where data transfer is disabled by default unless you tap a particular thing on your screen. I will continue trying all of the fastboot bullshit after work. But until such time, I'll be assuming my no-home-button-having phone and its lack of easily accessible flash mode are unrecoverable.

"Don't be absurd" is unhelpful.
