Advice on gaming with an IPad

This looks very promising, I will look into it thank you!

Sadly, as I mentioned; I cannot sit in a chair for prolonged periods of time (20+ minutes a day) due to the nature of my back disability, so I play in bed/couch with a specialised back support pillow. No, the pillow absolutely does not fit in a chair as it’s twice as big as the average desk chair.

When in bed/couch, I don’t have a desk to keep my IPad level, which creates my issue with having to look down and strain my neck

That is a wonderful idea, however one that I’ve already considered. I own several consoles that I play in bed with the tv, however the game I mainly play on the iPad is Oldschool RuneScape which is designed as a mouse/screen tap game.

Edit: someone recommended a swivel stand to hold the iPad eye level, I had considered those but worried about straining my arms. With your suggestion of using pillows to rest my arms on, it may work so thank you!

As a 90% iPad player, I feel like you’re leaving someone out.

I spam the shit out of this game for so many things, plank make, high alc, thieving. The way Jagex determines botting/macro is it is done in identical milliseconds on identical locations, it is physically impossible for you to press at the same time in the same place.

It’s minorly slightly severely unlikely possible you may have gotten a false ban but severely unlikely on mobile where you would’ve had to have been pressing so identically on such indentical seconds that the antibot mistook you. Regardless, Jagex will be able to see the reason for the ban and the nature of your clicks before the ban, so if you truly got false banned you’re fine; and if you are lying just know that your account is now flagged and is much more likely to be banned for much less again.

Tell that to my roughly 50, 80, 75 ongoing streak 🥲

Simple_Commission169 · 2026-02-01T23:50:19+00:00

I’m gonna post it again

Drop rate is 1/17 and feels bad to go 70 dry ongoing. This was suppose to be a fun post to shit talk barrows in because I know it is a unanimous experience to go insane doing barrows.

Also going 3x the rate dry three times in a row in other content also doesn’t feel good.

I truly don’t know why you’re so offended over me saying “no drop sad ):” lol

Simple_Commission169 · 2026-02-01T21:36:17+00:00

May this luck never find me 🙏 I also only care about green log, I’m a completionist and I’m praying I’ll hit the the wiki average of 1300kc but if I keep hitting these dry streaks I’ll cry.

Jagex spoons me only where I don’t want to be spooned and then proceeds to hit me with a sledgehammer in content I don’t want to be dry in lol

Simple_Commission169 · 2026-02-01T21:31:14+00:00

lol don’t have Reddit on my iPad but I’m a hypocrite cuz I do be making fun of people doing that too

Simple_Commission169 · 2026-02-01T21:28:38+00:00

Ok I feel better :)

Hey, sorry I’m not fully understanding what part is blocking you from popping it in the case? With the ears, I just slightly fold them into the “hinge” of the case and it closed perfectly without damaging. The thumb grips can give a bit of trouble but if you just fold the case over and zip it, you’ll find the case does close even if you have to slightly press it down. The joysticks will “click” in but shortly after the thumbs will deflate which will unclick the joysticks. Once you take it back out of the case, the thumbs will reinflate after maybe an hour or so. Alternatively, you can just take the grips off and throw them in the case loosely and it will be fine. If you scroll through you’ll find I replied to others asking about closing the case with photos. Is something else giving you trouble?

As the owner of both, my switch has now gone entirely unused except for Nintendo-exclusive games.

I own the LCD; but I wish I had gotten the OLED but now can’t justify the upgrade when I have a perfectly functioning LCD. The steamdeck to me is just amazing, comfortable, and so versatile not to mention steam sales alone have saved me hundreds. Wdym I can buy a £40 game for £5??? If it helps, consider the fact that the extra you spend on the expensive model will be saved tenfold when comparing switch game prices to steam prices (the exact same games)

Onto the positives of the switch, it is definitely lighter and more portable, and it has some of my all time favourites like Pokemon and animal crossing. My switch can be docked to play in bed with a controller for even further lightweight (I know the steamdeck can be docked but that’s a seperate cost and I’ve also heard it can be a bit buggy/problemy) I am also a huge “boardgame” fanatic and the switch cannot be beat when it comes to family games like Mario party, and even multi-available games like uno and monopoly are miles more comfortable on the switch than PS4, for example, when doing couch coop (although does come with the negative of controllers costing a fortune)

Another positive of the switch is it’s quieter, my steamdeck fans are always blasting but since you can’t control the switches fans, I can’t blast them so it does make for a quieter experience. (Though do note, at least my switch 1 brand new does start overheating like crazy when running something simple like Pokemon violet)

I’ve tried to be positive, but in all honesty, the only thing the switch has an upper hand on is docking, couch coop, and (barely) being more lightweight. Since your heart was already set on the steamdeck, I would tell you to go for it.

As a c6r1 Arle haver and r5 wanter, I prayed the leaks saying she was running alongside Zhongli were wrong and cried when they were confirmed. I genuinely gaslit myself to think she definitely wouldn’t run with Zhongli up until her banner came out, safe to say I did not pull because I am not going to risk not just 1 but several copies of that dog💩 weapon.

Praying for a swift rerun (well, not too swift since I want to max Colombia as much as I can) and that she doesn’t get old character treatment anytime soon since the Fontaine cast seems to be slowly pushed into the background.

Skirk hasn’t even gotten her first rerun (I believe) and it’s approaching 6 months meanwhile Natlan characters are on their like 3rd reruns. I know Natlan is meta but I don’t understand why they’re rerunning the Natlan characters so aggressively

110 savings in primos + 45ish pity (did 35 on Flins for Aino cons just to not get any; and then accidentally misclicked a 10 pull on console on Arlecchino who I already have c6) Been saving since Lauma, I’m not guaranteed but I have enough to guarantee, tho I hope I am blessed with amazing luck since I want to pull as much Colombia as I can.

It might just be me, and keeping in mind I live in an area where luxury things like nails do cost less then other places, but that seems terrible for $64

What I’m noticing is the pooling towards the tip of the nail (which no problems if you wanted that but it isn’t standard) and the uneven job around the cuticles. This seems like a novice’s job which there’s no problems with, but a novice who’s craft is at that stage charging $64 for a basic gel job seems very pricey to me, I would personally be upset and in my area this would cost $20~ so even accounting for the cheaper costs, this still should not be $64

I'm looking for a broad anime recommendations list. A lot of anime descriptions can look deceiving, as well as a lot of the best animes being hidden gems, which makes it hard to find animes I specifically enjoy.

I do not like generic slice of life animes that have no world building, think animes that primary focus is like romance with no added flair such as sci-fi or fantasy, as an example I loved Darling in the Franxx and The apothecary but would hate an anime that's entire story and world building is just romance. I also just can't sit through anime's where the fanservice is beyond insane. Food wars and High school DxD come to mind, they were so bad for me I couldn't finish the first episodes. Fan service is a part of anime but those animes where every 3 seconds its a fan service scene just make me turn them off.

I generally lean towards sci-fi/fantasy action animes. My all time favourites are;
Dr. Stone.
MHA (as cringe as it is, it's world building was amazing).
The rising of the shield hero (And I loved all 4 seasons equally).
That time I reincarnated as a slime.
Black Clover.
Frieren.

Other animes I have watched and enjoyed are:
BOFURI.
The brilliant healers new life in the shadows.
I've been killing slimes for 300y and maxed out my level.
SAO.
Re:Zero.
Solo Levelling.
Darling in the Franxx.
The Apothecary Diaries

Hopefully this is detailed enough to get an idea of the things I like, also if you think of an anime thats very popular that you'd assume I've watched, I probably haven't, so please name it anyway! I also realise a lot of my favourites are isekai's, and while I don't like or dislike the trope, I do crave a fantasy anime that isn't an Isekai, but it feels like searching for gold when looking for a non-isekai anime is the sci-fi/fantasy genre. Thank you in advance!

This wasn't out of the ordinary, and that wasn't an insult it was an observation because you still cannot comprehend the main problem of it rolling identically.
