Everything in this blog is sick and I want it. Except the banner, who the fuck cares about a banner.

I think it’s to give the top women a platform, for young girls to see people like them on the TV and make them believe they can do it too. If enough young girls start playing and keep playing, there should be plenty of female players that can compete with the best men in short order. There are also women’s titles that have lower requirements than men’s. It’s a pretty controversial thing; some women refuse to take the “lesser” WGM title over the open IM title.

I’m not saying this works or I agree with it, but that’s the thinking.

You could, but no-one really plays it so you won’t be getting the same experience. If you want the constant anxiety of being killed, or the thrill of hunting others, the yearly deadman is your best option. The permanent world is just a private server with boosted xp rates.

It’s called the Peter Principle.

Pick and Shovel from mlm, or Coil from Zulrah. What bangers.

Some bosses have high ticket drops, some have consistent money drops. Having both would be broken.

Worth watching, but only watch in English if you think you can get over the dubious dub. After a few episodes it mostly stops bothering you, but it’s probably better to watch in Korean with subtitles if you’re sensitive to that.

The real issues? Social anxiety, general guilt and regret about the past, the acceptance and occasional pain in knowing that I’ll never have a partner.

But the situation has been the same for about a decade and I’ve moved past the point where it bothers me other than acute episodes. I’m fortunate enough to have a good job and enough money that I don’t have to worry about housing or food, and aside from work I can basically do whatever I want (the positive side of “no partner”). I have hobbies and am going to start traveling soon and work keeps me busy, so I don’t really have grounds to complain.

Also, at some point if you’re not dangerously depressed, it just becomes a part of life and the new baseline. I feel “meh” at the best of times aside from when I level up on OSRS, and having that kind of pessimistic outlook does have some advantages. I don’t really panic when something goes wrong because everything is shit anyways, so the boiler breaking down or w/e is just another Tuesday. Makes life much more chill then the rollercoaster of being an optimist.

Not inherently, but I’ve been in communities where everyone is weirdly positive in the name of being “non-toxic” and it resulted in people generally not voicing dissenting opinions, which is pretty similar to an echo chamber.

I no longer frequent those places because it all felt a bit artificially happy like a kids TV show.

There are extensions for Chromium browser’s that do the same thing now :) I use it at work because my mouse doesn’t have buttons for navigating back and forward, it’s great.

Yes I forgot about this! Speed Dial was a killer feature, we just take it for granted now.

I loved Opera 20 years ago when the built in RSS reader, email client, mouse gestures and unique rendering engine that was either faster than the others or completely incompatible with websites. Now I don’t give it much thought, all the chromium browsers feel the same.

My local supermarket sells these “exfoliating gloves” that you wear in the shower and basically just use like a wearable washcloth. They’re awesome.

Just to be “that guy”, oriental isn’t a bad word in British English. It’s used very commonly in the names of Cantonese restaurants for example. It’s less commonly used to describe people, but if you did need to specify that the person was east-asian, it wouldn’t raise any eyebrows.

Husky is fantastic, his content never misses and his comms are great.

Yeah I was thinking that. If bots can do zulrah I’m sure bots could do the diaries and get to killing the bosses easy enough. I guess Jagex are relying on being able to catch accounts in the process of doing the diary, and idk how that’d be easier than catching them in the process of training or doing the boss.

I’m pretty new to the fediverse, but I haven’t been too negatively impacted by lemmy.world’s issues, especially in the last few weeks since the performance issues were solved.

I wouldn’t be against setting up another acct on a smaller instance, but I don’t want to have to maintain two sets of sfw subscriptions. If there could be a service to sync your subscriptions between instances I’d be all over it.

Yeah that’s the one! Definitely not toxic in there at all, it’s a social clan that does occasional bossing and bingo and stuff like that.

Gz and fuck you!

Prioritise your prayer at all times. Time your gear and prayer switches to happen between phases so you spend the most time inflicting damage. If you’re having difficulty switching, use void with only a weapon, helm and cape switch. Use veng if you’re feeling spicy for some extra damage. And don’t worry about it needing many attempts, I think it took me 16 deaths before I got my first kill, you’ll get there.
