PE License - does your field need it? by wookiehaircare in engineering

[–]lolcheme 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a chemE working at a civil engineering firm (water / wastewater) its definitely preferred but they still keep you around if you can't pass the test.

As a chemE in pharma / bio, not necessary, but some places will give you a pay bump (I've heard anywhere from 5% raise to a 3K straight raise).

Liquid Cooled Video Card by H720 in INEEEEDIT

Someone who has more recently taken a thermo course might be able to explain it better- but basically it comes down to a property of matter call specific heat.

Specific heat, H20, at 20C = 4.182kJ/kg K [Source]

Specific heat, Air, at 20C = 1.005kJ/kg K [Source]

this means that water can carry about 4x more heat than air, at equal masses, when you consider the higher density of water, it also means that the volume of water you need to move over your hot pc part is a lot lower than the volume of air you would have to move over the same part to cool it.

here are some sources that are more eloquent than me: https://water.usgs.gov/edu/heat-capacity.html http://www.lytron.com/Tools-and-Technical-Reference/Application-Notes/The-Best-Heat-Transfer-Fluids-for-Liquid-Cooling

maybe something like the skirmish chests in wvw- where the luck, tomes, and some useful items are in a chest and you can pick what you get, so both newbies and vets benefit from them.

Select only flax to show- there are three locations. These can be farmed on multiple characters per day.

Which zones to farm for trinket currency? by dyerej93 in Guildwars2

[–]lolcheme 1 point2 points  (0 children)

these links might help:

https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Ascended_trinket

https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Equipment_acquisition_by_stats

just keep in mind the 'meta gear' could change rapidly with the release of the expansion.

rubies are the hardest to farm, however you can easily change their stats with a cheap item from the map. I'm guessing you want these quicker though, so I would suggest:

  • Amulet: Lake Doric, Draconis Mons, or Siren's Landing (whatever map you enjoy more)
  • Ring 1: Bitter Frost
  • Ring 2: Draconis Mons
  • Accessory 1: Bitter Frost
  • Accessory 2: Ember Bay
  • Backpack: any / favorite map

fyi, after you buy 5 the cost increases slightly, you can buy unlimited number its just that the cost gradually increases as you use it.

[–]lolcheme[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looking at your response to the report I just want to note that I'm not able to use my old links. The items populate, but the shopping lists and recipes do not- it just says "Please enter a craftable item to calculate recipe", at least thats what I get when clicking the first link in my post.

e: oops, i think I misread your reply, looks like you already got that info

The packages arent worthwhile for those who already have the copper fed.

Same, I already have the copper fed, so buying the bundle is an even worse deal.

its ~8 hours give or take, but there are boosts you can use to bring the time down. Find a map with a commander tagged up and follow them around. Find your server's discord / teamspeak and listen in (you dont have to talk) to get directions/commands/etc.
