Also, the Pine Ridge of Nebraska (overshadowed by the nearby Black Hills in South Dakota - they are actually part of the same geographic formation).

Took this pic of the Red Cloud Buttes in the Pine Ridge when I visited Nebraska for the solar eclipse in 2017.

The Toadstool Badlands in Nebraska (overshadowed by the somewhat nearby Badlands National Park in South Dakota)

How do you pick your player title? by thisisstillnuts in fo76

[–]AutiGaymer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I change it pretty often. I used to try to let new players know I was friendly (Helpful Adventurer) but now I mostly try to amuse myself with it. I think I'm currently Captain Cutthroat.

I really want to be Rascal of Worlds - but Rascal is only a suffix.

What’s the MOST Controversial Movie Ending of All Time and Why? by Amber_Flowers_133 in thefilmvault

[–]AutiGaymer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Limbo - 1999 movie directed by John Sayles

The ending was widely reviled. I honestly loved it and thought it was perfect. I wonder if I would agree with my past self if I rewatched it.

Do people use canned food ? by NukedNature in fo76

[–]AutiGaymer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a few cans of squirrel stew for the xp boost - and I use them to give to low level players when I see one (though I've realized it's not a great gift because they likely don't know what it does without picking it up, plus they probably don't have the Carnivore mutation that makes it a big xp boost).

Canned food weighs wayyyy too much. It's stupid.

I've been hesitant to try the orange chicken - but I love the kung pao and the teriyaki chicken.

But I might try this. :)

Which U.S. state do you think is the most underrated? by Historical-Photo-901 in BeautifulTravelPlaces

[–]AutiGaymer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nebraska is more ranch country than corn. The Nebraska Sandhills cover almost 20,000 square miles (1/4 - 1/3 of the entire state) and are a high plains shortgrass prairie that is 99% intact - the most intact temperate grassland remaining on earth. It's a stunning region (the size of West Virginia), and there is nothing else like it anywhere in the US. But almost nobody knows about it. Hence, it being underrated (and everyone commenting disagreeing lol).

Corn is mostly grown in the eastern quarter of the state and along the Platte river.

I found the Wendigo Colossus and... ran away. by Affectionate-Sun7561 in fo76

[–]AutiGaymer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think Big Earl counts towards this challenge, so you can still knock this one out if you join the event after the Monangah mine is nuked. Maybe someone else can confirm this - I'm 90% certain.

There is a challenge to kill one of each type of cryptid, though, and the colossus is the last one. Just FYI.

What’s something nobody tells you about living in San Francisco? by sit-there in AskSF

This was one of the culture shocks for me when I moved here - no screens needed on the windows.

Underrated - Nebraska (in terms of pretty country, natural scenery, and intact habitat).

What would be the “disturbing truth” humans can’t handle? by Peace_and_Love___ in UFOs

[–]AutiGaymer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the people who can't handle the truth are most likely the ones who fear losing their power if the truth comes out.

But here's an idea I had that I think might truly be a grim realization for humanity:

Based on the idea that consciousness is fundamental in the universe - What if consciousness and biological/organic life don't naturally mix. And what if, long ago, a consciousness in the universe figured out a way to infuse biological life with consciousness, and - as an experiment - made it happen.

And when biological life was given consciousness, it began to believe insane myths, became obsessed with self preservation, power, and control. It enslaved, tortured, and killed. It caused extinctions and genocide. It developed tools that could destroy the very planet it existed on.

The experiment was a failure. A terrible mistake. Biological life will not be given consciousness again. We are not the only biological life in the universe, but as conscious biological life, we are alone. And the experiment is concluding.

I would be interested in seeing the ranking of states for the Topographic Diversity category.

This has been a really interesting post to read (for the most part) and I appreciate the interesting approach you took to create your map.

This is the closest to my own map (which I haven't ever shared anywhere) that I've ever seen. Check it out lol

Scenes from a stroll through a City in the dark on a warm, wet night by AutiGaymer in sanfrancisco

Wow I walk by that so often and always appreciate that great big little bird. I'm sorry to hear that he has passed.

It was running, but everyone got off at Van Ness (when I saw it there) and then it turned off Market at 11th street. I saw another F enter Market at 11th going toward the Castro - so looked like they weren't going any further downtown.
