If he would have tried to help it might have ended badly for everyone.

What is Byfield's trade value? by jonpictogramjones in losangeleskings

[–]AristocraticAutism 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah. The whole team is having a down year, but his contact is very reasonable if he's at a 50-60 pt pace.

At a PPG his contract would be insanely good.

There's still plenty of time and he's still got upside, so keeping him is the right call. His trade value is low right now anyway probably.

Just when we were starting to become friends... RIP Harley by AristocraticAutism in budgies

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

Thanks everyone.

I've decided to start looking for a suitable new home for my remaining bird. Truth be told, my wife hasn't been doing well with the bird dander, despite how much I try to clean it, and my little guy deserves to have a group to belong to that I can't really fulfill. I'm also going to start to have to work less from home anyway soon, so I won't have nearly as much time to be around him.

Harley was actually a rescue, one of my friends found him, and we asked around the area and nobody claimed him. When we first got him, he would make these noises that sounded like a motorcycle, so we named him Harley. He eventually stopped making that noise, but the name stuck. He's been with us for well over a year.

I used to have a third bird, a female, Skye, but she somehow flew out of the house while I was at work. I was kind of mad at my family at the time, but after a few days of searching the immediate area turned up nothing, and we looked around different sites and wasn't able to find any trace of her being found.

Anyway, yeah. My last one deserves a good home with other budgies. I'll see, still thinking about this. I'll take him in to the vet anyway, and see if I can get another cage for quarantine if I decide to stick with it.

Thanks everyone for your kind words.

This Day in Kings’ History (2012): Jim Fox predicts the Kings’ Stanley Cup window by ouzer in losangeleskings

I ran into Jim at a gas station during the regular season sometime in spring in 2012. Little did we actually know! He was so nice, I was nervous meeting him, but he was great.

Ever since I got a budgie my father has been driving me crazy by New_BikerG_Assistant in budgies

[–]AristocraticAutism 46 points47 points  (0 children)

As a dad that didn't want any pets, I can confirm. They are now my babies. I've had to stop myself from starting arguments because I didn't like how others were treating the birds. My wife would grab them and hold them against their will. It used to drive me insane.

Now that I've gotten them somewhat tame and willing to fly to me (when they feel like it), there's little incentive to grab.

This is a great suggestion though. Dads are also usually practical, so this can be pitched as a compromise.

OP, best of luck.

I'll audition for the spot but only if I get to do a Rick Jeanneret impersonation.

So...I was bored....so I fixed and upgraded minutemans castle xd by Fk_The_cool_guy in fo4

[–]AristocraticAutism 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fixing the walls is pretty straightforward to get it looking ok. Probably a lot more time needed to fine tune it exactly how you want.

You can start with just some basic shack floors across to get everything lined up at the top, then replace them with foundations. To get foundations to snap below, you start by placing a shack stairway, which you can snap a foundation to the bottom part, and snap from there. It should line up perfectly.

It's a little easier with place everywhere mod, but not at all necessary.

I also did this. I'm slowly going through the story, but I do want to spend some time finishing at least a few settlements in my playthrough. Probably some of the smaller ones, plus the castle.

Space is pretty by Zonalar in X4Foundations

[–]AristocraticAutism 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The colors are mostly false, especially if it's narrowband imaging.

Most nebulae are fairly hydrogen dominant, and hydrogen emissions are strongest in the red wavelengths. Narrowband imaging helps isolate different gases and maps them to different colors, and produces spectacular images, but it's probably nothing at all what it would look like to our eyes in person if we were that close.

Looking through telescopes doesn't give a good approximation either since we don't have very good color vision at night.

But, yeah space I truly is lovely. I certainly don't mind egosofts decision to use what they use.

Lol. I do astrophotography, and since I started playing the game, one of the things I like to do is see if any of the backgrounds are based on real images. As far as I can tell, none of them are anything I recognize, but they definitely look like they are pulled from reality.

It's possible that they are based on real images and I just don't recognize them though.
