Starvation.
i’m a fairly deft hand at pottery. i’m also decent at fiber crafts. depends when and where during the stone age, of course, that’s a pretty big expanse. if i’m really lucky, i’d be in one of the many cultures with special spiritual roles for trans folks. i’ve also got good rote memorization skills, so i can help with oral history.
Dying
I came here to write Dying, but 7 other people had already done that.
Either making elaborate traps and contraptions out of sticks and stones.
Or brain surgery.
You’d be the shaman putting holes into heads to cure headaches
Hey, maybe you’ll be the most successful neolithic brain surgeon and only kill half your patients
It could go either way
Ironically, brute force. I would be great at hunting too!
perhaps
geometry, politics and drugs
tool making most likely. also fire keeping, and cooking.
I’m a natural at shooting a traditional bow.
I know every edible plant in my area, and some that get you high.
I can find north without a compass, day and night.
I can make a fire from things I can gather in the woods.
I know how to safely fell a tree, split logs and build a shelter with hand tools.
I know how to act around most predators and have experience handling a spear.I think I’d do reasonably well.
Sometimes I wish I was born in the stone age. My ADHD is completely gone whenever I’m in the wild.I started reading and was like “okay, sure buddy” then I remembered I have developed a lot of the same skills, including tracking wildlife.
And then I remembered the time I learned to identify clay deposits and to separate out the clay so I could build stuff with it.
So I thought: “wth, this is so weird! Ohh, they have ADHD too… That explains a lot”.
I wasn’t diagnosed at the time, when I was learning to find clay, but that should have been a sign lol
Fucking, for sure
Excel, it wouldn’t be useful but I’d still be great at it.
Great! I got a random Excel question. Sometimes when I pull reports at work the format for the price changes. Instead of showing the $ and the correct amount of spaces after the cent sign like .00, it has no $ and many digits after the cent sign like .000000000000000.
Now when I try to change the cell format back to currency, accounting, text, or anything it keeps the same format and amount of digital after the cent sign. The work around I found is to open up a different Excel doc type it in the correct format and then copy and paste over the incorrect formatted cell.
Do you can a better answer or did I explain horribly and your as confused as me when I try to fix Excel?
I haven’t encountered this but have you tried select the cell, going to the home ribbon tab I think, then clicking normal. Then adding the number formating you want
Yea when I said that I excel at Excel I was somewhat exaggerating, much as I have at every job interview I’ve ever had. It’s become something of a reflex these days. But as someone else has said I think that particular issue is just down to Excel being crap.
The more I learn about Excel, the more I know I don’t know Excel.
That’s just excel being excel.
It Excels at formatting.
Finding fruit trees. Hunting would be my weak point.
Being a bitch.
Just by knowing how to wash my hands, medicine. Up until 20th century.
Wash the wound with soapy water, apply cloth that has been boiled. Yeah that should have a better survival rate than most of human history.
Soap is animal fat and what in a survival situation?
Leach wood ashes with water to make lye. Soap is easy
Yep, IIRC hardwood is what you want to be using to make the lye
I would introduce them to scrumpy, then teach them to grow apples so we can make more.
