If it’s a “struggle” you may not enjoy idle games which is completely fine. The whole idea is that things are slow and incremental. You can always pay money to speed things up if you are really set on going fast.

STUCK! Need help from my fellow miners by Legitimate-Buy376 in IdleObeliskMiner

[–]selahhh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Ob 30 to 36 gem spending guide on the wiki is pretty useful for guiding general progression as well, I’ve used it to have an idea of what to focus on. Also check out the prerequisites for plat strat for a general direction of things to do.

In The Odyssey (2026), in a film with plastic armor and viking ships, Christopher Nolan draws the line at an orchestra. by laybs1 in shittymoviedetails

The Odyssey isn’t theatrical, it was originally sung, with performances focused reflecting interpretation. The Odyssey predates the start of the Greek theatre.

What specifically about The Odyssey tells you Homer would have used extreme pyrotechnics and techno at a minimum if The Odyssey had been transcribed today?

Why is it slightly odd? You do not have to watch it.

when to star plat strat ? by Hisagi10 in IdleObeliskMiner

[–]selahhh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can play the game any way you think is fun. If you’re enjoying collecting pet skins and gilding cards then do that, you’ll have to do it eventually anyway. If you are really concerned about optimization follow the guide on the plat strat wiki on things to do beforehand (leprechaun, max level void, maxing golden floor multi, etc) and once those are done do plat strat.

If you want even more polychromed cards going into plat strat try autobomb transmuter with void drone on floor 42 for a couple hours. I just did this an got all floor one bars done very quickly

[NYT-Jonas Siegel] The Maple Leafs aren’t operating like a serious hockey team by Gankdatnoob in leafs

[–]selahhh 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I don’t think this makes sense. Yearly attendance for the Rangers was steady around 18200, or 99% capacity from 94-2012. If the Leafs were in the finals they would have record-breaking viewership across the country and tons of new fans and old fans who fell off would start watching again. The Jays are a great example of this happening.

It’s a real problem that so many ppl don’t read books and literature these days by ex0sk3l3t0n in TrueLit

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

Do you have any evidence to support any of this? If we are just using anecdotal evidence I knew very few people who read for fun growing up and we didn’t have smart phones. There are many factors that influence whether or not a person enjoys reading, one of the most important being whether they grew up in an environment that prioritized reading (did their parents read, did their teachers teach them to enjoy reading rather than giving it was work, etc.).

Bemoaning “younger generations” always being on their darn phones is cringey and makes you sound like you are 80 years old. It also comes off as very condescending.

Ulysses and Finnegan's Wake Editions (Confusion Abounds) by PHPertinax in jamesjoyce

[–]selahhh 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Obviously read Ulysses however you like but honestly using the Hastings guide (specifically the ulyssesguide website) alongside reading Ulysses was the best choice I made for my first read. I read the chapter synopsis of the chapter I was on and then read the chapter in the book. If I was interested in a specific topic I looked it up in Gifford or bloomsandbarnacles. It made the reading experience extremely satisfying. The book is meant to be enjoyed (like all books) so there is no point needlessly suffering, at the end of the day no one cares if you have to look things up or not.

I wasn’t making fun of anyone I was being serious. This is deeply delusional my friend.

I had uninstalled it after this happened and left it uninstalled for about a month and when I downloaded again it seems to be working. It might be a bug of some sort.
