I’ll just need to get less scared of dying-- it’s never actually happened on my current account, but I’m not hcim so it doesn’t really matter. Thank you for the offer of help!

I was setting my sights on Prime because of the dragon axe (unless I goofed and it’s one of the others). Priority #1 is probably just unlocking ancients and grinding fletching to get magic short, haha 🙃

I’m a regular ironman that just got 1500TL the other day… and I feel so frustrated with the wiki. Looking up strategies that they describe as “low level/beginner” for things like Dag Prime, and the gear it recommends is full specific Barrows and other things that would themselves need gear setups to get.

I think I might just go and get my ass kicked a bunch and try to keep from that feeling of “man I really should be using this gear…”

It’d be pretty slow, but couldn’t you either do ammonite crabs or sulliceps to get fossils and finish off those last kudos?

Got back from the theatre about 10m ago, and I see why! It was a lot of fun, and while it did have some serious things, it also didn’t take it’s humorous parts seriously. For 2 hours and the cost of a ticket, I’d definitely recommend it.

While maybe not super cost friendly, I second the meal box angle. I wasn’t bad at cooking, but was definitely super slow with knife skills, not comfortable with some stovetop methods of cooking, etc. We used Hello fresh and Plated (before they went out of business), and that really springboarded us into feeling like we could cook. Haven’t ordered any meal boxes in like 5 years now, and make homemade dinners 4+ times a week.

An Aeropress Go.

I’m far from a coffee snob, but figured I’d give this $25 piece of plastic a try because a good friend was raving about it. In the year since, it’s been my favorite way to make myself a cup of coffee-- the ritual of it helps me structure my Saturday morning, the coffee tastes better than I thought coffee could taste, and I’m more excited to look at the flavors and whatnot from locally ground coffee.

I always get myself to do things I don’t want to by thinking “Future-me is going to be much happier when he finds that present-me did this already.”

Helps me find the motivation to exercise, make myself a good cup of coffee instead of a kcup, do the dishes after dinner, lots of things. And past me is such a bro, saved me from present-me having to do those things.

Highly recommend Darn Tough socks from Vermont. Best socks I’ve ever worn, and they hold up really well.

Numworks has a free app that supports python, if that’s sort of what you’re hoping for? I will say that I don’t know if it clears the program memory between one use and the next.

If you’re into trivia and podcasts, I really enjoy The Omnibus Project podcast.

If you like Magic: The Gathering, the Professor over at Tolarian Community College can’t be beat.

Stopped using reddit after 12 years when the blackout began, and kept up with the developments through the tech news. Removing the mods and screwing around with things just because they’re mad about a protest was the last straw, so now here I am!
