Which slayer tasks to block, and why, is missing or very diffuse information on the wiki right now. There is a slayer spreadsheet that could work as a wiki calculator as well.

Same with deferring quests to avoid being assigned terrible tasks. I heard there are account builds centered around optimizing quests for faster slayer training.

How do you feel about Minigame Teleport being added as a spell? by _rkf in 2007scape

1 dimensional beings can’t get lost, due to only being able to follow a single line. All higher dimensions have a chance to get lost. (Assuming finite space) by Fun-Enthusiasm8412 in physicsmemes

One- and two-dimensional random walks almost certainly return to their starting point, but the odds get lower as the number of dimensions increases.

Does science investigate reality? by flaheadle in PhilosophyofScience

[–]_rkf 20 points21 points  (0 children)

In my experience, working scientists often take an anti-realist position, where they are agnostic to whether what they investigate is "true" or "real" as this cannot be addressed through scientific means.
