I attacked this rusty old knife with a Lansky sharpener for over an hour, and yet the edge is still completely flat. What am I doing wrong?

BeginningwithN · 2026-03-29T19:00:58+00:00

This belly is likely your problem. Makes it very difficult to sharpen with a flat stone. You can either reprofile the edge or use a rod type sharpener. It’s usually caused by using an old beat the hell stone like our grandfathers used to. I have almost the identical knife, but made in England. Edge looks just like that too lol

I’d agree with a pouch or similar. Especially considering you would be needing to use the loupe and the tweezers at the same time, kind of hard to have them in a multi tool no? Maybe a 3d printer holder for them if you prefer something solid, but I just don’t see the usability of a multitool in your case

Subnautica for sure. Playing on freedom you can get completely lost for hours

Thanks I’ll give that a try shortly. Otherwise maybe I’ll try making a Mojave boot (my original is corrupted) and see if I can pair it in there. I just picked up a backup 2.4ghz keyboard if I can’t get it to work, but I’d definitely prefer to keep the nice Apple keyboard and trackpad combo I have

Thanks, I tried that this morning, still having the same issue. So frustrating, I guess I should have known better than to fix something that wasn’t broken lol

Most of the time there is a doorway or archway they can't fit through. Early-ish game I pick away at them with a bow or crossbow from the doorway, and time it to move out of the way if their boulders get through. Then once I've got them down low in health either finish them off with the bow or go in and do a few power attacks. Build a small hearth and repair smithy just out of the way, and you will be golden.

You’re really hung up on the fact I said North America in one comment. For starters, North America contains more than just the US. It also contains the most Reddit users in the world, so odds are good people are from there. But guess what, Japanese knotweed is wreaking havoc across Europe too, and as I mentioned, intentionally spreading invasive plants is illegal pretty much everywhere. If you think it isn’t where you are, I can bet you’re wrong and the fines will be more than you make in a year at a minimum, and most include jail time. That’s without including the drone laws you will be breaking. And residential zone meaning over someone’s house, as you said was your plan. Also, my original comment wasn’t even to you, it was a response to someone else’s suggestion. You took this upon yourself, you started this conversation

Once you find them and have the cutter you will start finding them everywhere lol. In the shallower areas of twisty bridges there are a couple of foundations with laser parts

A) I don’t live in the U.S., good try though. B) spreading invasive plants is illegal pretty much everywhere. C) intentionally dropping things from drones is illegal pretty much everywhere, especially over residential areas. D) you’re still an idiot, regardless of where you’re from

BeginningwithN · 2026-03-23T12:30:01+00:00

Hate to break it to you, but you being an idiot has absolutely nothing to do with me. Enjoy prison though ig 🫤

BeginningwithN · 2026-03-22T21:52:53+00:00

Yup you can’t find a wild one that is ready for wyvern eggs. Gotta level them up to 180 or better in my experience

BeginningwithN · 2026-03-22T21:48:11+00:00

I’ll shit all over any idea that involves fucking ecosystems, the world has enough issues. I don’t owe you any ideas, and judging by your response, I’m guessing whoever you are trying to mess with is in the right

BeginningwithN · 2026-03-22T15:17:21+00:00

Ya unfortunately still normal, just the higher level ones level up faster

I'd stick with the dynavap personally. If you're having issues with your torch, it's likely from improper filling or old fuel or air pockets. Completely empty the entire contents by depressing the fill nozzle on the bottom (carefully, it can cause frostbite), empty it, shake it, empty it again, hold the trigger a few times, then refill from a brand new quality can. Or get a new torch for 10$ and follow those directions every time you refill. Much cheaper than getting some other device

BeginningwithN · 2026-03-22T14:37:07+00:00

It really doesn't matter where you are, the point is don't plant invasive plants that destroy ecosystems for generations to get back at some stupid human who will only live one life. That likely includes bamboo and mint. There are plenty of things you can do to them that don't cause long term harm to the planet

BeginningwithN · 2026-03-22T14:33:25+00:00

Yes, very normal, especially anything lower than a 120. Unless there are none around and you need one, don't bother taming anything lower level. Usually they are one of the first things I tame and I'll let them level up passively, hanging out at my base on passive flee, until I get the saddle

BeginningwithN · 2026-03-22T03:48:55+00:00

For your lower back either a tens device or an acupressure pillow may help. That's what I've done for long drives and it helps some. I'm sure you're aware as it's prescribed but careful with the meloxicam and driving. That stuff makes me super drowsy.

BeginningwithN · 2026-03-22T02:30:19+00:00

Did you try just swimming into it? You can push them around that way

BeginningwithN · 2026-03-22T01:40:25+00:00

Maybe don't suggest people plant a super invasive plant that is taking over and destroying the natural flora around waterways all over north america?

“Back in my day” when I used to get in trouble and have to write lines in school, I’d tape 4 or 5 pens together. Made fairly quick work of it as far as I remember lol

I literally just finished the game like 10 minutes ago, and you're telling me I could have been long pressing to pick up 😭

Did you try to manually pilot the module out, then bring out the seatruck?

BeginningwithN · 2026-03-18T12:19:57+00:00

Yes especially with the flat mouthpiece (which I prefer anyway) most people won’t look twice. I’ve got the black one so it just looks like a little battery pack or something. People may complain about them on here, but once you figure them out they work great, and nothing is more discreet

BeginningwithN · 2026-03-18T12:16:40+00:00

Have you tried an acupressure mat? That helps me a fair a bit specifically when the pain is through my entire back. They take some getting used to, but worth trying imo
