CS related degrees are useless. Tech is something that you need to be constantly on top of and perpetually trying to expand your skills and knowledge. Assuming you have a strong foundation in math and logic, a degree in CS will not help you much.

Check out Ironsworn and Ironsworn: Starforged. I’d say they are the peak of Solo TTRPG, Starforged especially. The Ironsworn PDF is free to download. There is even a pirate themed expansion called Sundered Isles.
I am curious about that Crowthulu cosmic horror expansion too.
I “own” it in Multiple platforms already. I might actually own it now.

As it relates to this post, I like Puma for skate and On for fitness (running, gym, tennis, etc).

There is a fun solo TTRPG of this concept.
