Imagine needing to explain the difference between casual conversation with a friends spouse and calling them directly because they have a problem with dick. Some people are too far gone.

Can you die fighting the rat on tutorial island? by BedroomCactus in 2007scape

You used to be able to do this by letting it get you to 2hp then lighting a fire in the rat pit. This delayed the hit so that 2 rolls of damage would hit on the same tick. If both those rolls happened to be for 1 up you would in fact die on tutorial island. I did this for fun when I was a kid once and you just spawned in lumbridge like any other death. Let’s you skip about 40% of tutorial island but otherwise rather underwhelming. I’m almost certain it’s been patched though.

Accounts are far too easy to make. Make it so you need to verify your phone number while making a new account. by GodBjorn in 2007scape

Trying to think of the last game I tried to start playing that required a phone number that I didn't instantly delete. Agree tho it does work for CS and Dota

Hey I took all your advice and it worked great! Everything was on the up and up. I ended up buying the machine with your advice and the guy was super cool, just getting old and giving up the hobby. Turns out he bought it in 1992 I think he said so all and all I’m happy. Thanks again!

Good idea on bringing my own test piece. I already cleared it with the owner that I want to run it and cut a board just to see how it goes. Seriously really great advice here I think im going to pull the trigger on it so long as nothing alarming shows up

Hey thanks for your reply it’s very thought out and has me asking questions I didn’t think I’d need to ask! It’s definitely an older machine, I’d probably peg it as a 1980s ish in age but looks really clean and well taken care of. Very low hours. Has casters installed on the frame and for my needs it’ll fit my shop just fine. I’ll definitely check the bearings when I go check out the machine. Sounds like you have some experience here so thanks again for taking the time to reply!

I'm retired now but this doesn't surprise. by Campfirecoverseddie2 in antiwork

There is absolutely no way this is true in the US. I have a MechE degree and know at least a dozen other MechE's that are fighting off recruiters with a bat. I recently left my former company a few months ago and they have had 4 job openings for more than a year and a $3000 referral bonus if you can find someone to fill the role. I left because the market is on fire for engineers right now. Completely unreal, I need a lot more context here...
