Can you post the DMCA notice you received? It should include what the copyright material was which would be interesting given it was discussion only.

That might have been me asking for it, but if you find a mod to that, please let me know! https://lemm.ee/comment/2161312
SFP is pretty straightforward. Most of the SFP modules you can buy you just connect and they work. For something like that, you would be doing fiber to ethernet hand off at a switch. Then you have pretty much everything run to the switch including router and just VLAN isolate. It's not super complicated, but if you never messed with VLANs it might be better to go with something pre-packaged unless you're up for learning.
You could also do a DIY router and run a multi-gig SFP+ network card over PCIe. You still have to purchase a separate SFP module for that, but that is another option.
There are some people who actually study probability patterns in randomness. That subjects beyond me, but a quick summary of what they usually say is that something like what you're describing or triplets or various other things are actually quite common and don't disprove randomness.
Just one example of a conversation like that: https://math.stackexchange.com/questions/1132058/why-does-randomness-exhibit-a-pattern-in-the-long-run
Because you've already expended your spell slots for that level.
I set up a backup cell connection to my cable internet connection. Sketchy Chinese 4G LTE modem. My router was a DIY job I set up off of Ubuntu Server. Everything ran to a Cisco switch and then was VLAN isolated. For the two WAN connections, I ran scripts from the router that periodically tried to reach out to several DNS providers and then average response rates to determine if the main connection was up. If not then it would modify default routes and push everything to the cell.
The cell connection had pretty low data cap, so it was just for backup and wasn't a home style plan. I used the old TTL modification trick to get it to pass data like a phone. When I moved the backup to 5G, TTL modification stopped working and I had to resort to creating tunnel interfaces to an actual phone. Since that tunnel is limited in bandwidth to the lowest value, my speeds were really cut in half.
I disagree with some of their assessment. Specifically the point that you really aren't given enough information to weigh out which decisions you go with and that is something problematic. Unknowns are pretty inherent with Dungeons and Dragons. In tabletop, you typically don't know what the outcome is going to be. You can only veer towards decisions you think will be a net positive and then hope you make your rolls.
With a couple of exceptions, no decision you make is really game over for you. It just changes how the story unfolds.
Gluttony might be an interesting idea. It's not necessarily necromantic, but the idea of using magic to force a person to eat until they cannot continue and literally rupture.
Or, and this probably sounds stupid, but you could have a modified form of the grease spell that's just wet noodles. I don't know if you've ever stepped/slipped on wet noodles, but it's disgusting and traumatic.
Before Baldur's Gate was a thing, I remember reading Homeland by RA Salvatore. It was 1994 and my sister gave it to be as a bday present. I couldn't put it down and it firmly cemented me into Dungeons & Dragons. I already had been playing some gold box games like Hillsfar, but that book got me seriously addicted.
I just read that in my mind in the narrator's voice.
Hmm, so you say there was a DMCA takedown notice but that the thread contained no material or links to material. You also say you can't provide evidence of it even happening. Yeah, I'm going with you didn't actually receive one and are just trying to retroactively come up with a good reason.
