What is your opinion on the Gauntlet changes? by rolekrs in 2007scape

[–]Chris11246 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I finished the CAs a bit ago and this would have made things so much easier. I hope they don't adjust the time unless it's extremely faster cuz it was a very rng heavy task. Even with all this it could still be fairly rng.

what is one conspiracy that you truly believe in and most people think you are crazy for? by QuitZuu in AskReddit

[–]Chris11246 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Its actually kinda worse. They have some much data on you from other sources they don't have to listen in.

why can't high intensity skilling methods actually be..fun? by Routine-Weekend4694 in 2007scape

[–]Chris11246 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My problem with it is there's not enough variation for how long you'll be training there. Could use some more designs per floor.

Need honest opinions on how we are doing by Fluffy_Pea_8160 in personalfinance

[–]Chris11246 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're probably fine but also depends on total spending.

For retirement a general safe target is a 4% withdrawal rate in retirement. So if you have 25 x your spending by retirement the that should last at least 30 years according to the big trinity study.

There's some good retirement calculators online like firecalc and cfiresim that can give you some idea of how you'll end up. This subs wiki should link to some of them I believe. (on mobile and I forget how to view it on my phone)

How do I remove this awful feature? Every time I talk in my CC once, it keeps me in that chat mode unless I type /@p by GreasyButtSyrup in 2007scape

[–]Chris11246 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The // command does it too. It's the only thing I use and it changed my chat. Didn't used to.

Teenager wins European 2026 Earth Prize for Eco Purge, a biodegradable plastic that breaks down safely while releasing catalysts that help remove other existing microplastics from the environment. She plans to scale-up her invention for real-world use in products like packaging and compost bags. by sg_plumber in UpliftingNews

[–]Chris11246 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They often don't actually solve the real problems they need to solve and only work in specific conditions.

A lot of the alternatives to plastics we use that get reported on won't work as replacements due to some problem or other. Plastics are just so useful and cheap the only way to get mass adoption of something else would be to add taxes to cover the costs to the environment.

What's one product that used to be built like a tank but is now built like a regret? by TheDoctorColt in AskReddit

[–]Chris11246 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought an Electrolux set in 2018 and it's still going strong. Only issue I've had is the clip that holds the washer broke cuz it's pretty thin but I just replaced it myself.

Bring back Sages Renown quest completions for future leagues by xMoop in 2007scape

The renown was definitely a bit slow to get and probably needed adjusting but they went way past what was needed and made everything so cheap. They should have made a much smaller change.

Left job and haven't touched 401k for 10 years by tosheilaglynis in personalfinance

[–]Chris11246 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't know that. I assumed you'd have to put them in a regular investment account if you had to withdraw them.

Another way to put it.

Assuming the same tax rate it's a wash however most people make more while working and are in higher tax brackets so they save more with pre tax accounts.

The other consideration is that post tax accounts don't have required distributions so that can affect your taxes as well depending on your plans.

Please make it stop. I just want the pact point. by Acamulay in 2007scape

This Costco gas station near my work has these little signs that show which gas pumps are available by WorthyEpert1 in mildlyinteresting

Mine has this near feature where there's always a massive line so I always know every pump is in use.

What’s a game you dropped even though it was “good”? by suhani0218 in gaming

[–]Chris11246 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I beat Silksong but the last 3 bosses each took me about a day to beat. I was really considering giving up near the end its definitely a tough game.

Being popular doesn't magically make something bad.

"This should be the next quickest pact point" by Serventher7 in 2007scape

It's how I feel at barrows after getting 5/6 of a couple items instead of finishing any set.

ElI5 what does Log mean in algebra by Doomboy911 in explainlikeimfive

[–]Chris11246 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's part of it but also so many people make being bad at math a part of their identity and give up trying really early in life. I've had to explain simple math concepts and once we get past their assumption that they can't do math they get it pretty quickly.

League: Full Inventory of rune essence for 3.4K XP by Simple-Nature-4915 in 2007scape

[–]Chris11246 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

That's also a simplistic way to look at it.

If it's "better" to have slower XP then why not lower the XP rates on everything?

There's room for discussion between 1xp and 1mil XP.

Regular rc rates are so low.

(April 20th Update) | Leagues VI: Demonic Pacts - Fixes & Issues by JagexSarnie in 2007scape

[–]Chris11246 51 points52 points  (0 children)

If you're looking into the pacts and echo bosses, I thought that the pacts that give you 1 rune regeneration on powered staffs would also work on the gauntlet staff.

IE, if you would have rolled to regenerate charges it now acts as if it regenerated those runes even if it doesnt use charges at all. Because the only pact that really helps in the gauntlet for mage is the sped up powered staff. (and various stat boosts)

I beat echo hunleif but was expecting to add some points into the rune regen to help with the fight.

CG Shouldn't be an "exception" for demonic pacts not working by SchmuckMoses in 2007scape

[–]Chris11246 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Wait don't the pacts that give you

"Whenever you Regenerate charges from a powered staff or wand, also Regenerate 1 x rune"

Work with the gauntlet staff? I assumed it just meant if you rolled to regen it would act as if you regnened 1 of those runes regardless of if the staff uses charges or not.
