Should work fine. Try holding left CTRL and SHIFT while clicking the link (directly on "Forums" in the title bar).
This enforces cache reload for the site while opening it in a new tab on many browsers. Probably your browser used the already cached "empty" one.

Some numbers seem a bit off..
Medical emergency? Should I call a devil-veterinary?
Ah, they're fine now - devilishly perfectly done!

Just not playing attention on a sufficient level.
Veterinary? The fact that I am something far more evolved than a human does not make me an animal.
Just toss me in a fire and all physical wounds will heal up just fine.

Astonishing. *puts the acetylene torch on*
As such this thing is basically an instant-glue for your wounds, even as it melts 1" steel bars in seconds. That's impressive.
I still have to use leather gloves if TIG welding, else the sun burn would be more of a sun-roast by the emitted UV ray intensity. ?

If you are familiar with D&D, I have the equivalent of a fire resistance of 125%, so I heal 25% of firebased damage instead of taking damage.
You can't even mark me with a branding iron.

Even tho, an acetylene torch is around half as hot as the surface of the sun, that's ~8-10 times the temperature of the flames on a campfire. But as long as your resistance works independently of the temperature, this should basically make you unable to die, as long as you carry a small teafox-produced acetylene-oxygen-torch backpack which burns on your back the whole time. ?
Yea.. my inventions are somewhat to get scared of. Clean beheading? No problem, acetylene backpack fixes it before the severing line is crossed. ?
It's good to be a scientist & engineer. Dungeon / game master would cancel his position after five and a half minute.
That's understandable, I wouldn't want to as well, it's quite the cruel human concept for numbering permanently.

Pretty sure that I am already unable to die from worldy things.
Spent a good couple of hundreds of million years in Hell before I crawled up here.
Serious talk:
Why on earth did you feel the need to construct something like that and make it portable?
For industrial use I can see a point to it. But not as a back pack.
Nothing can have a need to be cut that fast?

Some might have sort of a resurrection source, but in hell?
I didn't yet, but even normal acetylene-oxygen solutions are able to get carried. Lightweight gas cartridges and off it goes.
They're used to cut even underwater, as they gain the ability to burn without air (therefore the oxygen tank).
Things often have to get cut that fast, plasma cutter is portable as well. Only needs an outlet or a mobile energy station which can output around 3600 Watt, then it cuts through any electrically conductive metal up to around a centimeter in thickness.
It's not only about the cutting speed, if you take an angle grinder or saw and try to cut metals, there are some which are quite hard and destroy mechanically abrasive cutting solutions. As such you save on mechanical wear-down by using a plasma or flame. And it doesn't result in much dirt as there are almost no sharp remains falling to earth. Means I can cut metal in the open garden area without my dog or me walking into sharp pieces afterwards.
But I guess that's too boring for this forum.
Oh, that wasn't meant as "dying" in human terms. More like "vanishing" without remains.

No, why should I threaten you? Not at all. I've never threatened anyone in this forum.
It's a concept of role play which I participated quite often in the past (but less D&D than open RP with partly different rulesets).
If as example there was a fight, damages would occur to almost anyone. As such there were "healers" of varying concepts and medicine, boosting abilities, all to keep the recovery short.
If someone got beheaded that was it for him most of the time - in this roleplay actively played right then, not forever - as they "died" surely enough. But there were possibilities to prevent this. Some races had even immunity to "cuts" as in sharp weapons due to scales or armor.
Oh, and a floofy floof appeared! ? ?
Whaaaat?

As long as someone is not actually attacking me or those I care for physically (i.e. in real life), I'm absolutely balanced and peaceful.
Some times sarcastic, tho - but not in terms of threatening people.
I'm sorry if that read like a threatening - never would do something like that.

You're fine - I should've written it differently to prevent misunderstandings.
But I'm very happy we're able to communicate things in more factual ways than some other threads tend to do.
@Mare Lover 1975 : I wish you a quickly arriving end of your shift and a good start into the weekend!

Yeah, I am so pumped to talk science!
Have Germany managed to hinder the spread of spruce bark beetle?

You're a bit sarcastic, right?
Of the Borkenkäfer? Not sure, there were quite big areas destroyed in the Harz by it, that began some years ago.
There's always the question: what's better - accepting the invasion and trying to counter it by non-chemical or at least non-invasive / damaging ways in relation to other insects or even bigger animals? Or to go full out with chemical warfare, but this will as well result in unfortunate losses regarding different wildlife / insects over dozens of years.
And in relation to the bark beetle I am not sure if there are "individually" aiming insecticides available & well-working.
There are tree species existing which could grow quite quickly (compared to tree growing, not human growing - will still take 30+ years) and are resisting against the bark beetle in natural ways, but not all of them are a good choice and compatible with the ground structure.
I've had to kill a bark tree myself a few months ago, which lost all twigs and they fell onto one of my buildings roofs punching holes in it. But in this case it was "just" around 30% of it's matter which a fungus infected and destroyed, not insect related.
Resulted in some fire wood for the end of this year, tho. ?

No chemical warfare needed, really.
Bark beetle traps exist and each can catch millions.
Require a lot of boots on the ground work, but best for the ecosystem as a whole to deal with them that way, even if it is a more expensive way to "fight" them.
In Germany about 70 different species exist that both pray on the beetles and are parasites that only attach to the bark beetles.
But this is a slow way that can't really deal with mass outbreaks of beetle swarms. Best used in local outbreaks where "let nature take it's course" is the modus operandi.
Not dealing with it at all is, as we can see, a catastrophe to the forest industry and a very big problem if the EU intends to go full fossil free in the energy and fuel sectors.

That's the reason why I love science. Every day there are some small, but positive news by knowledgeable people which one can embed into the own lifestyle.
Thank you, very interesting approach. I'll have to check in relation to those traps how they work and which regions use them.
