Just a guy, bout to get my PhD in experimental particle physics. I like hockey, basketball, DND, science, and audio equipment.
Go Nuggets! Go Avs!
It was funky and felt distinctly un-LaTeX with the pdf cropping and graphic declarations, but was super fun. Way different from academic writing or even hobby typesetting with normal, pre-made classes (the DnD 5e LaTeX Template by rpgtex is a gamechanger for homebrewed dnd content and was the catalyst for this). The standalone
document class is really weird to work with, and using tcolorboxes as the main document content feels like I am fitting a square peg into a non-euclidean hole, but it is still working!
I am just glad I decided to use LaTeX and not python for this.
They are, and will always be, iconic. I only used one other source when making this, mainly for the font pack and the potential to add a texture map to the text block in lieu of solid gray.
LaTeX is a typeset that is written in plain text with Markup language. Word, docs, acrobat are all WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) editors, so you type the words and use toolbars to edit formatting. In markup, what you write is what you get: you type everything, including the commands for alignment, spacing, etc. It makes control and customization of your document easier. If you ever have tried to use MS Word to make a good looking equation and wanted to die when it messed up your images and spacing 10 pages back, markup typesetting is the solution.
My tip would be to find a few templates on overleaf that you might find useful and just mess around and try to come up with what you want to see. Could be for work documents, could be for a hobby, whatever. Overleaf, the website I shared this project on, is great because it handles the backend stuff like compiling, software installs, etc. and allows you to easily copy templates over from premade projects in the gallery.
I learned to use it for writing scientific publications, but eventually I used it for all my homework, making ‘official’ looking DnD content, keeping a log of my work; basically most documents that are longer than 1 page. It is particularly good for science and math writing, but is almost as versatile as HTML for whatever you want to make.
Regarding not being familiar with LaTeX, I have already successfully used this template alongside chatGPT to convert items from a block of poorly formatted text to a finished card in just a few minutes. All you have to do is feed chatGPT the item’s description and the contents of the TeX files contained in the package (itemcard.tex, itemCommands.tex, tcolorboxSettings.tex) and it will do a pretty bang up job of formatting your item to match the template.
I just started Adderall 10mgER last month after trying Straterra (25mg->40mg->80mg) to no success. The biggest side effects I have noticed are hyper sexuality, the sensation of sounds peripheral to my current activity being “un-muffled,” and a lack of instinct to go to sleep (not the inability, I just have no drive to get into bed, turn the lights off, and close my eyes. Once I am there, falling asleep is easy).
I also have noticed a flip in how it impacted my appetite. At first, I just wasn’t hungry at all and was actively reminding myself to eat. Then, out of nowhere, I became incredibly hungry and painfully aware of it.
All the other notable stim effects fell off pretty quickly; no more jaw cleching, fidgeting, or sensory overstimulation.
I almost never preorder games anymore, but I make an exception for Bethesda Games. I managed to snag a Constellation Edition on Gamestop after the direct, but the order has been fucked up and I haven’t been able to see the status for weeks. I had to call like 8 times to get the issue escalated so I could make sure I would get it and just got confirmation that my order was fixed today 😭
Should be an alt-evo for sinistea imo. The convergent pokemon evolution idea works for some pokécological niches, but for a spirit inhabiting tea vessels, it seems oddly specific for two distinct species.
My buddies and I have been on Battlebit a whole lot. It is the first fps I have played since Halo Reach and BFBC2 that has really grabbed my interest. It is just so good. The proximity and squad speak has been so good it has actually led to me making friends via an online game, which I haven’t done simce I was in middle school playing Halo 3

All shall tremble before the superior typesetting experience.
