It does but it’s unreliable; mining is faster once you have it set up properly.

I typically focus first on things that give me more iridium: pickaxe (faster mining), crystalariums (jade = staircases and ruby = spicy eels), iridium band (big upgrade over either magnet or glowstone ring).

Then I upgrade the other important tools (axe, hoe, water can) and get iridium sprinklers, depending on which is more pressing in a certain playthrough. I only upgrade stuff like the pan or the trash can when I don’t know what to do with iridium any more.

I checked the whole planner, pressed some buttons commonly associated with it (Q E , . plus right click) and I couldn’t find a single mention of rotation. So I think that you can’t.

You don’t find Legend in Ginger Island. However Ginger Island allows you to buy magic bait in Qi’s Walnut Room, so you can catch the Legend off-season in the mountains.

If you’re trying to catch all legendaries in year 1, make fishing your early game money maker, and you should level up really fast. Fish mostly in the mountain lake as largemouth bass is more profitable than the others.

Use Stardew Predictor to check for weather days near the end of the Spring. You’ll need those.

Worst hypothesis if you can’t catch it in Spring, then rush towards Ginger Island, since magic bait allows you to fish it regardless of season.

It’s the first winter. My farm is still barebones but starting to take shape:

It’s still missing a lot of stuff:

• obelisks - I don’t have enough money
• Junimo huts - I need starfruit, and my Ginger farm is full of strawberries for seed makers for spring
• sprinklers - I need batteries, and for batteries Caroline needs to request that special order for solar panels
• sprinkler nozzles - Qi’s quests simply take a lot of time.

but overall I’m pleased at the quick progress.

I remember Session Restore from Firefox 2.0 times, I think. Back then people would crash the browser on purpose to have it remember the tabs.

So I guess this sort of feature is, like, ~two decades old or so.

They aren’t different sources of info, but parts of the same process. And they’re three:

1. The utterance. Like you said, the words and how they’re arranged and such.
2. Your internalised knowledge. It’s all that bundle of meanings that you associate with each word, plus your ability to parse how those words are arranged.
3. The context. It’s what dictates how you’re going to use your internalised knowledge to interpret the utterance; for example, selecting one among many possible meanings.

Without any of those three things, you get 0% of the info. They’re all essential.

So no, it is not solipsistic at all, since it depends on things outside your head (the utterance and the context), and those are shared by multiple individuals.

I’m checking the Curated Tumblr thread and modlog. Holy fuck, what a shitty user - clearly behaving passive-aggressively. I’ve seen more oldschool forums being ruined by those than by the ones hurling insults.
