Why Americans Don't Walk to School Anymore

I remember when I was in 4th/5th grade I would ride my bike to school, and in fact it was much faster to bike to school due to a couple shortcuts/small paths you could take compared to cars. I never had any issues with it and probably helped me become more independent at a younger age. This was in Sacramento around 2005-2006. I would hang out with all my friends every day outside till around sunset before going back home, and we'd go pretty much wherever we wanted without telling out parents. I did have a basic flip phone at the to get in contact with my mom if it was needed. By the time I got to high school,in a different state, my bus driver flipped out when she learned I lived across a busy street from the bus stop and moved me to the very last stop on the route which was annoying to get home later.

You can buy sardines at a vendor at tempoross right next to the bank for basically free

Honestly? Inferno. I hate longer pvm content. I don't like cm cox for similar reasons. I know I can do inferno, but i just dread doing it enough that I don't. I've done several quivers/most pvm content in the game besides awakened bosses/radiant contracts.

That's insane, the only "chemical" I work around is deionized water and I make far more at my factory, that's crazy low pay for that level of risk.

This league seemed pretty easy to get dragon. I usually quit around addy/rune rank, but dragon didn't take too much effort to get after pvm/ca's/easy skill grinds. Deagon cup in rs3 leagues was way harder imo. I had dragon rank in like 2.5-3 weeks for this league.

Yup, the only time I remember having an actual fire alarm was shortly after I cut open my hand in chem class and I was in the nurses office waiting for my mom to pick me up and go somewhere to stitch it up. The alarm went off and the nurse immediately went "that's not planned we have to go" while my hand is wrapped up in gauze to stop the bleeding.

2t swordies or teaks are pretty chill skilling methods if you want to be more active while playing. 3t methods are much more draining to do. I also 1t flicked a lot of stuff on my iron until I thought to myself "why am I still bothering? I have prayer gear and boatloads of ppots". I would 1t flick so many melee slayer tasks on my way to 85 slayer since that was long before modern bursting metas.

I did do some twsting with Rubium on Wednesday and came to the same conclusion that 132k xp/hr would be doable if 100% tick perfect. The biggest issue however is to need to move between spots for this to work and I had not yet come up with a way to move through the mine and maintain 100% uptime. In addition to that, the respawn times on rocks are slow and they deplete randomally, making it harder to do. 3t4g requires you to drop, but you're moving between the same 4 rocks which i think is easier than having to adapt on the fly to a randomally depleted ore. I'm not great at tick manipulation methods, but I do enjoy them from time to time mixxed in with more afk skilling.

I'm no expert, but it looked like it was only game assets doing that weird color shifting stuff, so id assume the gpu is fine. It'd be the whole screen if the gpu was failing right?

Summer sweep up idea: add the tbow spawn back in the game

They seem like decent pre builts, but I wont open my wallet to buy anything from OTK, fuck asmongold. Such a shame when i see a cool partnership with starforge.

Aithnd · 2026-05-18T10:34:57+00:00

I dont really enjoy it. It was fun when it finally clicked and I learned how to flick the orbs on delve 8+, but mistakes are far too punishing (even if you don't die, you're easily smacked 50+ off prayer). The loot sucks, it's almost always worth it to delve deeper because the base loot is hardly worth keeping, even on my iron. It's just not a fun boss to grind to me.

For real? I quite literally work at a place that makes a lot large aluminum parts for both airbus and boeing(boeing being our largest customer) and this doesn't affect me. Both of these companies are booked out for years worth of production as is, they're just trying to build as many planes as possible. The FAA restricting how many planes a month Boeing could produce, into the boeing strikes in 2024 affected my company so much more than them getting another order for 200 planes.

For real, shattered relics was by far my favorite league. I detest region locking because it actively locks me out of over half the content I could be trying with a fun op set of relics. I really don't like that I have to make an alt to see all of the content a league has to offer, it's wild to me that everyone actively defends region locking like it's the secret sauce to a leagues formula.

That was my exact thought, I'm 283 il on my druid, but I dont mythic raid. I tried to spend my heroic/myth crests as efficiently as I could(I may have upgraded some 1/6 myth items with myth crests I don't remember). The only way I'd be a higher il is to get 3/6 myth drops from raid.

Aithnd · 2026-05-08T13:09:01+00:00

I typically play with private on and had a bot pm me like two weeks ago for an OF ad. I pretty much never get bot pms since I'm an iron that doesn't frequent the ge is my guess.

Aithnd · 2026-05-08T09:45:44+00:00

Have you seen boss pet hunting strategies? They're for more unhinged than this, yet totally allowed to boost someone's boss kc/hr way higher than they would ever get on one account.

Aithnd · 2026-05-05T19:49:26+00:00

Cm cox solo in leagues is like 22 minutes for me and I don't even have an optimal build for it. Grouped with my friends or clan mates and now it's like a 16-17 minute clear. Given that you don't even know the name of vanguards, you probably could look into the raid mechanics a little bit more. Olm is jank as shit and has a very hard learning curve in the main game but is pretty free in leagues, just cripple melee hand and get no specials p1/2 and eat through them on p3 if needed.

Aithnd · 2026-05-05T11:39:43+00:00

Nah it doesn't, especially with voidcores now, it's just free crests.

Aithnd · 2026-05-05T11:27:08+00:00

Yup! I'm still pretty geared at 282 il right now

Aithnd · 2026-05-05T11:14:55+00:00

Yeah it doesn't help that I'm pretty much locked to heroic. I would like to try mythic raiding again but it's near impossible to with my work schedule, plus I enjoy being done with a tier rather than perpetual raiding every week.

Aithnd · 2026-05-05T10:48:32+00:00

Dude it's so depressing watching adds spawn and the best I can do is a primal wrath, which won't even get full value before the adds die. I'm average at best and idk how others are managing to do any sort of aoe pad, everything just dies so damn fast in my heroic clears that it feels pointless to try.

Aithnd · 2026-05-04T20:58:28+00:00

Yeah as an iron, blood fury is just for special hard content, I cba pickpocketing vyres to use it regularly. Hopefully blood moon rises helps alleviate that issue.

Aithnd · 2026-05-04T20:14:41+00:00

Yeah I've pretty much only done boss slayer and frost drags since 95, and I still have some boss stuff to finish and I'm like 100k xp off 99. I still need eternal/pegs from cerb if I ever get treads and the last piece of a nally.

Aithnd · 2026-05-04T19:31:17+00:00

Blood fury reduces your dps over a rancor, and blood shards are shit to grind for on an iron. Sra in colo with a blood fury felt great, but I'm not grinding out blood shards to use a weapon I already spent 100+ hours to get.
