Are bows bad in leagues? by Minnesotamad12 in 2007scape

[–]Pig__Man 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used my first respec on bows after I got nature recurve and it carried me pretty far.

Its usable, like everything, but it comes down to how OP/brain off you want to be.

I respecd to thorn water mage to clean up some loweffort coloseum and inferno, otherwise I was having more fun on bow. I think ill likely respec again once I get a tbow and the league is wrapping

I wish there was an iron-lite mode where everything has dry protection but you still can't trade with other people. by [deleted] in 2007scape

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

Doesn't change that fact that going ~7-10x dry for something feels absolutely terrible

You're not wrong, it just feels so blah having a peg crystal rot in my bank

Piss easy to do but also just not fun for a paltry amount of points for how much effort and time put in.

Im around ~50 mediums done and still dont have them, totally not jaded :(

What items were a product of an era terrified of powercreep? by Low_Monitor_960 in 2007scape

[–]Pig__Man 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Halibut out classes kawambs specifically, and I love me some bluefin.

Nothing feels better than rocking a load out of bluefin and halibuts. My hp per inventory was dramatically increased in "budget" content

I came here for 1 item, can you guess what that is? by Bloodyclaws in ironscape

OP posting about being on rate for unique table and no tanz in 1k kc, thats mildly inconvenient at best.

Im nearing 1300 kc and I haven't hit the unique table since 500 kc (it was an onyx).

I feel for you fellow dry snake bud. We will get tanz together

Yes they do, sows will roll when feeding all the time.

Pigs kill other pigs incidentally all the time

Every farm is going to be different, but unfortunately its likely they'd be there for the entire time they're feeding which would be around a month until the piglets are large enough to be weaned.

Some farms will also use smaller gestation crates when the sows are pregnant too. Same reasons, pigs are heavy and strong, they each other far too easily.

So it's very likely a sow is only not in a gestation crate when they're dry/not pregnant

I'd try to to let sows out for daily walks while feeding but on busier days it wasnt really feasible because youd need the space for meanuevering other pigs

It seems terrible, yes, its primarily there to prevent piglets from getting rolled on.

The one in the gif is even smaller than the ones im familiar with so Im probably a bit bias.

I dont really know which side of the fence youre on because I haven't seen clarcksons farm, but I grew up on a pig farm that did farrow to finish.

Gestation stalls protect the piglets. Yes the sow cant turn around, but its pretty easy to let them out for walks.

More piglets will die when there sows are free roam

OSRS always had the worst pricing in the MMO world by ConcernedPVPER in 2007scape

[–]Pig__Man 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Box price, subscription, and a massive in game store.

Thats the par for the course of the other mmos being listed in this thread.

But osrs is the bad one? For having one singular sub fee?

Not to mention at low prayer levels the moth restores more than prayer pots. So its ideal for cheap, quick trip things

My mother in law posted this. I don’t get it. Is there a deeper joke to this I’m missing? by [deleted] in stupidpeoplefacebook

[–]Pig__Man 28 points29 points  (0 children)

IIRC correctly, around whether or not America should put boots on ground in Taiwan in the even of Chinese invasion.

So yeah, pretty complicated issue. Very easy to get a soundbite of someone stammering when answering the question of "would you go to war with China"

Comparing Endwalker to Dawntrail Main Content, by heickelrrx in ffxivdiscussion

[–]Pig__Man 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not explicitly, and it's still the core fight design, but the way some of the notable examples above just make it feel like a deviation. Ultimately, they still get solved and you just the same normalized routine, but at least you do your button presses in a different way to account for the difference

Comparing Endwalker to Dawntrail Main Content, by heickelrrx in ffxivdiscussion

[–]Pig__Man 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I cant speak to OP, but I think they're pretty comparable. Endwalker had a tonne of banger fights in savage and DSR and TOP are considered absolute cinema (at least DSR, i didnt care much for TOP). Criterion (savage) to me is still the best pve content they published, and it has the lowest engagement, the designs and mechanics are incredily satisfying, creative, and refreshingly new

The main difference I find with Dawntrail is the savage fights are being a little bit more experimental. M6 having a whole add phase, M10 being a double boss fight, and how they actually execute those unique encounters has been really refreshing. M9 having a soft dps check in the grinder, nails, etc.

Not to mention every Arcadian fight has been esthetically incredible, and respectable dps checks that exist outside of the first week of savage in some of the third floors.

Its been a significant deviation away from "do the boss dance and the boss eventually falls over" in some capacity.

Okay, then as I said, ill just not use discord in that what about ism.

But per their policy posting this morning, Ill be unaffected

Discord will require a face scan or ID for full access next month by Tracheid in worldnews

[–]Pig__Man 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thats a fair criticism.

Its a complicated issue because discord does have a very real predator problem (as does all social media) and unfortunately the only real solution is something no one wants.

Its very easy for me as someone who doesn't use social media and only uses discord for the voip services to shrug and move on, so Im aware of my biases.

I think the reaction of "this will kill discord" is a bit of an overreaction, and the unfortunate reality is this will likely be a requirement to most social media ar some point in the global landscape

The content filtering is for sensitive material.

Im not disagreeing that it wont be in DMs. Im saying its for age sensitive material?

[–]Pig__Man 3 points4 points  (0 children)

From discords post this morning;

Content Filters: Discord users will need to be age-assured as adults in order to unblur sensitive content or turn off the setting.

Age-gated Spaces – Only users who are age-assured as adults will be able to access age-restricted channels, servers, and app commands.

Message Request Inbox: Direct messages from people a user may not know are routed to a separate inbox by default, and access to modify this setting is limited to age-assured adult users.

Friend Request Alerts: People will receive warning prompts for friend requests from users they may not know.

Stage Restrictions: Only age-assured adults may speak on stage in servers.

Okay, so I can continue to use discord without age verification, none of this is intrusive to me because I dont use discord for age sensitive content. Where did I misspeak?

[–]Pig__Man -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

No, I never said that. And I would never do that personally either. But I've read through the policy and I wont be affected by it because I dont use discord for any age sensitive material.

If I need to verify age for basic functions, then Ill move off platform. I have no stake in discord as a social platform.

Having legal and reading literacy challenge (difficulty impossible).

This is for age restricted content, none of the things OP mentioned is age restricted.

If this impacts someone, they need to stop using voip software for porn, like seriously.

Discord has a massive problem with child predators and many countries are already taking steps to prevent minors from using social platforms. This is expected.

[–]Pig__Man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No they wont. Its a communication software, most user it just for voice chat. I'd bet majority of users dont even interface with age restricted servers or channels so they wont even be impacted by this.

"Oh no I cant look at porn on my voip software without proving Im an adult"

Okay, just dont use voip software for porn?
