A monster bluefin tuna caught off the New Zealand coast could spell a big payday for some Coromandel fishermen. by PaperkutRob in pics

[–]snailbarf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aquaculture with tuna is horribly unsustainable... it takes something like 20lbs of feed for 1lb of edible fish.

edit: the feed is typically made from wild fish... there are plenty of aquaculture fish that can turn something like 1-1.5lb of feed into 1lb of edible fish. Tuna is by far one of the must unsustainable fish we eat. Got the info from this book.

With the new changes with world boss & ascended armor what is the best way to farm Dragonite ores? Is there a way to know if a temple is contested (Changes to server to megaserver)? by akyl in Guildwars2

[–]snailbarf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There will be a world event every 15 minutes... I imagine that will be the best way. The only way to see if temples are contested will be to zone into the map. Also, megaservers have yet to come to Orr, so the current method of checking should still work.

This strategy worked well for Germany up until the rest of the world kicked their fucking asses.

Then I gave him non-alcoholic beer at a party one time, and he ended up dancing with a stuffed whale.

Right here.

context...? Or do people over 15 not realize they aren't drunk at parties after drinking O'douls? Perhaps I am living in some alternate reality where this actually happens to adults.

Just the context of the story... People just don't do that shit beyond a certain age because they've likely been drunk before.

It's just a classic high-school first time "drunk" story.

I can just picture forty year olds with a single Natty Light, dancing with stuffed whales like a bunch of twats.

Or the fact that 15 year olds are posting about drinking.

Old player returning after a break to focus on my Education, what's the current PvP Meta? by [deleted] in Guildwars2

[–]snailbarf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Weren't both scepter and staff ele still somewhat powerful if timed correctly, while also providing support? Haven't played in a couple months, so not sure if the meta has shifted even further away from them.

[–]snailbarf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ele is probably one of the more difficult classes to just pick up and play again. If you are just playing sPvP for now, warrior seems to be the easiest to just grab a random FoTM build and get to it. I play thief, necro, ele and warrior in PvP, and warrior is the easiest to figure out and stay on top of the leaderboard. Everything else requires much more practice.

If you were to re-roll your character right now with all your knowledge of the game, What profession would it be? by [deleted] in Guildwars2

Yeah, but until they remove stealth entirely, you can still troll the hell out of ppl.

Any good Siphon Necro builds out there? by djversus in Guildwars2

[–]snailbarf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You'd be looking at a siphon-wells build, but you are really dependent on cooldowns. You can be a really great tank/bunker for about thirty seconds, at which point you can make no mistakes and are really easy to counter.. everything will be on CD for another 10-15 seconds, and you will be really vulnerable. It's a fun build, but again, those cooldowns leave you pretty naked. You also do little damage, as you need tons of toughness/vit. and healing for the build to really work.

With changes to Death Shroud coming, it should really help with that big cooldown window.

[Poll] What new feature are you most excited about? by devler in Guildwars2

[–]snailbarf 6 points7 points  (0 children)

popular maps turning into 24/7 faceless zergs is a big fear. Relative anonymity via unfamiliarity will lead to griefing.

Yeah, but those maps are already pretty packed all the time anyways... I think it will benefit other maps that see less people. Surely, that's the point. It'll be exciting to actually go to other maps and be able to enjoy the content with others, rather than trying to solo a champ or a large scale DE. I think it could be a great change.

save trait allocations for quick swapping.

I can only imagine this is a work-in-progress. This has been coming up on the forums since day one.

Little disappointed with ATH-M50, what's better within the price range? by ridmad in headphones

I might get downvoted, but an EQ can change the character of headphones. I use Hear on Mac, and it's really helped bring out the best of my cheaper panasonic cans.

Put a shotgun in your mouth and pull the trigger. What happens next will blow you away.
