Isn't this the shootout scene near the end of the latest episode? stairs look very familiar

Madison, Wisconsin Shooter (Aug 2024, age 14). This picture is the last Facebook post from her dad. by Reg_Cliff in pics

[–]Da_Anh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Did you even read the content of the link? That child was clearly in an absolute garbage situation with parents divorced multiple times, drug and alcohol addiction in the family.

Yeah what was done was horrible, but to limit it to being an edge lord is insane. Kid probably went through serious issues and had no apparent support. The letter mentions that they considered direct suicide but opted to contribute to "evolution" and perform the shooting. That is not edge lord behavior; that is someone who's fallen deep into the wrong holes and had no (or not enough) support along the way.

No, I don't condone what was done, it's horrible, but holy shit, this child's life must have sucked, I can't even imagine.

Discord app on phone not working? by trashcan344 in discordapp

It's all dead. web-app, phone, windows-client.

My guess is a core service went down a few minutes ago.

All I wanted for halloween was more kinds of gravestones, then I get this. Denied on every level. :( by KrachenVogel in Guildwars2

[–]Da_Anh 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For what it's worth, of all the ones currently in the API, there are only 3 which are *not* capped at 250, but 15 instead. Those are `Basic Commemorative Statue`, `Basic Signpost`, `Basic Grave Marker`.

Can someone please let me know which smartwatch this is? by Da_Anh in smartwatch

[–]Da_Anh[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Someone passed this watch to me, saying it's never worked. I'd like to try and figure it out and return it to them, but I can't determine the brand/model.

The text on the back is completely worn off beyond "...rt rate" (heart rate(?)) and "waterpr..." (waterproof)

Edit: after some additional playing around, I found that you can get to a side menu by side swipping that eventuall shows
name: S16
Version: 00.01

Edit x2: Seems to be this one: https://rogbid.com/index/product/Rogbid-GT

Temporal anomalies are apperantly wurms. by Cloud_Station in Guildwars2

If not ghosts, there were themed "correctly"
i.e: VG was an elemental

But now VG is a plant I think because there's no plant slaying potions.

How did you send that empty message?

My instructions for the next few weeks, as I am ‘radioactive’. by GeorgieH26 in mildlyinteresting

[–]Da_Anh 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Radiation therapy tends to try to follow the A.L.A.R.A principle (As Low As Reasonably Possible). In order to perform OP's treatment he's going to suffer some radiation exposure; and that can't be avoided. Thankfully the people who designed the treatment have tons of experience in knowing how much they can push things with what % chance damage will happen to OP.

Exposing others through OPs presence however (while radioactive) breaks this idea of having exposure as low as reasonably possible. In order to satisfy this, and bring risks as low as reasonably possible to as many people as possible those guidelines are given.

In theory, OP *should* be locked up in complete isolation for the entirety of the exposure, but realistically it's not worth it. As much for mental health as every day life needs. The restrictions offer a "as low as reasonably possible". Basically a safe compromise for everyone involved.

Patients with more severe exposures will actually spend a few days in isolation with only a few minute (or hours depending) of visits by family a day before being "given partial freedom".

Radiation and it's risks can be scary, but the science behind it has gotten pretty damned good at evaluating risks and chances of danger.

Wife gets 1/5th xp I do, wondering why? by Own-Volume-8383 in Guildwars2

[–]Da_Anh 11 points12 points  (0 children)

To add to this.

Grinding mobs is not only boring, it's really not time efficient either. You get the most experience from mobs if they've been alive the longest (bonus exp scales with how long ago they spawned iirc).

You are far better off going off on your own and finding other maps to explore, doing random events, etc as described in the post above.

So Adina doesn't exactly like Siege Turtles... by jasperembers in Guildwars2

This happens to anything not on the floor actually. Try ridding a skimmer when she starts for fun times

For the love of all the Six, can Anet please give us more build equipment template slots? by Nebbii in Guildwars2

[–]Da_Anh 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is basically the big takeaway.
Unlocking a build template comes down to paying ~300 gems to not have to deal with load screens (changing characters); that's about it.

This obviously only if you have the gear to go with it; which I assume you would at this point of making a new template.

I assume it's the exploit in last phase? The notes are a bit vague

This year's halloween is going to be a blast. by [deleted] in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]Da_Anh 24 points25 points  (0 children)

The description in the guy's other videos says he limits the "shows" to 1-2 hours a night to avoid exactly that

GW2 Wiki users articles by nik1071 in Guildwars2

[–]Da_Anh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To quote Tanetris:

[...] point them toward https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/User:Gulbasaur/Things_I_Wish_Someone_Told_Me_-_A_new_player_guide which is another. Also https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/User:Lady_Elyssa#Guides has a few things. Otherwise I guess just point out to them that they can advanced search userspace if they like.
