I have been a DM for 35 years, and now we are embarking on 5th ed. I am playing a 1st level Barbarian. Due to Ideals and Bonds and stuff, I am letting other party members get the “kill” on stuff I have done basically all the damage to. The DM is only awarding XP to the final “kill shot” which means I am no XP. That would be fine if he was awarding me Inspiration, but he’s not...  Is there any guidance for DMs that I can show him that says I should get some of the XP for doing most of the damage to an opponent?
At this point, I am unclear as to how to handle encounter XP. Does each surviving party member receive a proportional share, or the full amount? That is, assume a 4-character party had completed an encounter worth 400 XP. Would each party member receive 100 XP, or 400 XP?
How do I switch between keyboard layouts? I want to switch between English and another language.  I have tried Lubuntu and it was easy, I figured it out from the friendly menus. But in Ubuntu everything is so cryptic. I was wondering if someone knows if there is a foot/feet symbol available in any of latex packages that I could use in my text? I would appreciate any hint.  I do really mean a foot/feet icon as in the picture below. Is there a general way to change the font of a particular symbol without switching packages?  For example, suppose I'm using Computer Modern for my entire document, but I want the "subset" operator to look as it does in mathabx.  How can I redefine it to appear in this way? How to solve apt "package cannot be configured because package is in a different version" errors? In the movie Interstellar,  Cooper (played by ) enters a black hole and sends a message to Murph (his daughter). Later, he is found by rangers, but I don't understand how he gets out of the black hole?  As far as I know, nothing can get out of a black hole, as it has extremely high gravity. bcmwl-kernel-source broken on kernel: 5.8.0-34-generic Inaccurate altitude GPS data with my Android? Lightsaber blade "weight" in-universe Accessing an array out of bounds gives no error, why? Options for crowdsourcing GIS data? I am looking at collecting spatial information from a range of stakeholders to identify opportunities within a landscape.  However, the data that we are collecting are not presently mapped and so we wish to use an interactive method to get this information onto a map.  Which online websites/methods would people recommend for circulating to a non-technical audience to try and get them to map what they know?    Where the emphasis is on ease of use by the stakeholder. sudo apt-get upgrade installs all updates, not just security updates. I know that I can use Update Manager to select only important security updates, but is there a way to do this from the command line? What does this notation mean? $f(x) \equiv A$? If $\lim_{x\rightarrow\infty}f(x) = A$, prove that $f(x)\equiv A$.  Any help would be appreciated! I just don't even understand the question. Why can't I seem to grasp interfaces? Could someone please demystify interfaces for me or point me to some good examples? I keep seeing interfaces popup here and there, but I haven't ever really been exposed to good explanations of interfaces or when to use them.  I am talking about interfaces in a context of interfaces vs. abstract classes. C# 3.0 Auto-Properties - Is it possible to add custom behaviour? I would like to know if there is any way to add custom behaviour to the auto property get/set methods.  An obvious case I can think of is wanting every set property method to call on any PropertyChanged event handlers as part of a System.ComponentModel.INotifyPropertyChanged implementation.  This would allow a class to have numerous properties that can be observed, where each property is defined using auto property syntax.  Basically I'm wondering if there is anything similar to either a get/set template or post get/set hook with class scope.  (I know the same end functionality can easily be achieved in slightly more verbose ways - I just hate duplication of a pattern) How to replace whitespaces in a filename? i tried it the following way:  rename 'bla bla .txt' blabla.txt   But this doesn't work, what's the correct syntax for this case? I have some shares that are mounted during login. I used Users &amp; Groups' "Login Items" panel to do this. When I login, all of the shares pop up in their own Finder windows.  How can I keep the Finder windows from popping up at login? I've already tried checking the Hide checkbox. Seeking copy of 19th century South African birth certificate? I'm trying to find the birth certificate of my wife's great grandmother who was probably born in Durban, South Africa in 1884. I'm currently unable to find any online resources for this.  If such a thing does not exist online, is there any other method of retrieving a copy or at least just the details? What are the prerequisites to studying general relativity? This question recently appeared :     Slashdot posts a fair number of physics stories. Many of us, myself included, don't have the background to understand them. So I'd like to ask the Slashdot math/physics community to construct a curriculum that gets me, an average college grad with two semesters of chemistry, one of calculus, and maybe 2-3 applied statistics courses, all the way to understanding the mathematics of general relativity. What would I need to learn, in what order, and what texts should I use? Before I get killed here, I know this isn't a weekend project, but it seems like it could be fun to do in my spare time for the next ... decade.   It seems like something that would be a good addition to this site: I think it's specific enough to be answerable but still generally useful. The textbook aspect is covered pretty well by , but beyond that: What college-level subjects in physics and math are prerequisites to studying general relativity in mathematical detail? How do I fix a "Unknown configuration key `foreign-architecture' found in your `dpkg' configuration files." error? he became firm friend or friends?
