In 1623 the German Wilhelm Schickard produced the first known designs for a mechanical calculator. Twenty years later Blaise Pascal produced a machine of an improved design, aiming to help with the large amount of tedious arithmetic required in his role as a tax collector. The interest in mechanical calculation showed no sign of reducing in the subsequent centuries, as generations of people worldwide followed in Pascal and Wilhelm’s footsteps, subscribing to their view that offloading mental energy to a machine would be a relief.

Blog - LongCon 2025 After-Action Report
TL;DR: The post describes organising the convention and then my experience of a weekend full of #TheOneRing2e #ttrpg playing through most of the Lone Lands campaign run expertly by @eladrin.
#LongCon is a long-form game convention, where you play the same game for the whole weekend.

I just stumbled across #LongCon (https://longcon.ttrpg.uk/), a #TTRPG #con dedicated to long-form games. Instead of a three or four-hour slot, #GMs can run a mini #campaign over the weekend.
Is anyone going to this or has been in the past? I'd love to hear your experiences. Too late for this year but I would be tempted for next year...
Lonely fun for the Lone Lands. #TOR #ttrgp #LongCon
