All of 'em defeated with one lineHeating on reentry is actually due to compressing the air in front of you, not friction. Falling from orbitall height will absolutely cause you to heat up the air in front of you, even as the air paassing you by is doing you no harm.
Though, if you smash into the atmosphere at orbital speeds, it’s probably going to do you some harm as it tries to force you back down to TV.

[Davidi] Shane Bieber opts in with Blue Jays for 2026Sportsnet: Shane Bieber opts in with Blue Jays for 2026
Everyone and their dog seemed to believe he was going to be gone, testing free agency, if he had anything even close to an OK fall.
I wonder if this means he’s been told something about to cohesiveness of the team in the face of all of the free agents right now.

To Cancun100%. They were sloppy as hell. I just know where all of the attention is right now, and didn’t want to give it any more.

To CancunI’m not going to lie: I purposefully chose not to talk about baserunning, because the baserunning that everyone wants to talk about right now is IKF’s in the 9th, and I don’t think there’s any issue with what he did there. He could have taken a slightly longer leadoff. He could have tried running through the plate (though, I’m not at all convinced that sliding is actually slower, since you still need to get your foot down on the plate, not just over it, and there isn’t strong evidence that running through is faster). But these were not mental mistakes, they were hedges that didn’t pay off.
Bo, Springer, and possibly Barger (it’s not clear to me whether Kike faked Barger out by starting deeper in the field and inching in or not) made some incredibly embarrassing mental mistakes on the bases, but IKF’s been getting all of the hate, and I don’t think he deserves it.

To CancunIt wasn’t how any of us wanted the series to end, and the fact that they were literally millimetres from walking it off was tough to stomach, but damn was it a good series. Damn, did the Jays play some good baseball this year. And while I may be snacking on grapes that are a little under-ripe, I know that they should have won that series.
People can point to the mistakes the Jays made – and they made plenty – but we can just as easily point to key bad ball/strike calls that significantly changed the outcome of the series (while also acknowledging that we got some almost shocking calls in our favour, too), or to the absolutely wild bad luck we had with broken bats, lodged balls, and BABIP.
They lost the series by millimetres at least 6 times by my count.
That’s wild. And it resulted in some of the best games I’ve ever watched.
Here’s to next year. We’re just 3 months from the start of Spring Training!

I ran a Chase in our #pathfinder2e game yesterday.I used mostly Normal and Hard DCs for their level
How have you been handling environmental challenges, in general? Chase obstacles shouldn’t have DCs that are explicitly scaled to the party level; instead, they are tied to the obstacle’s level (which means the DCs might be implicitly scaled to the party level, if the challenges are on-level for the party).
I just ask because this is something I see a lot of GMs do that causes problems, they scale all DCs with the party, even for things that should have static DCs. And if I were free-wheeling an unprepared chase scene, I, personally, would be leaning on the Simple DCs table, not Leveled DCs.

Some of my student gamemasters have been having trouble making it to the school Adventure Gaming Club lately, so this week I ran the #Pathfinder Beginner Box for four players.
