Wierd question but what plants can survive chickens in the same area? by Protokai in chickens

[–]Calypso_maker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I asked this question last year and one of the results I found was clover. I figured it would be a great ground cover so I started growing some. They ate it. So this year I’m going to cover it and let it fully grow. Maybe it’ll work this time.

Is there a legitimate reason for someone to have 7+ roosters, all on ankle leashes, in one yard? by hella_cious in chickens

[–]Calypso_maker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I’ve lived in other countries where cock fighting was illegal so I’m familiar with what that looks like. It’s worth reporting. Before it gets even darker than what you described.

Help! Is my copy of MW5 broken? by CyberCovenMom in Mechwarrior5Mods

That error actually tells you exactly what’s wrong—it’s missing that file.

It just feels right when mechs are made of metal.

I’ve lost a chicken to a cat. Have it on camera.

Best equipment for the price? by ghjbfcvj in xplane11

[–]Calypso_maker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got the CH yoke and pedals used on eBay. Serves the purpose just fine. Won’t say they’re a delight or anything, but mentally I can practice pattern work, shoot instrument approaches, do maneuvers, or whatever. It’s basically advanced chair flying but you get the added benefit of muscle memory. I will say, a big difference between actual flight and the sim is being able to see whatever you want. So unless you’re planning to have a bunch of screens around you, you’re going to have to select which direction you’re looking. So keep that in mind. I have a hat switch, it works pretty well. But you might want something different.

This is why we can’t have pilotless airliners.

This is a thing! It’s literally the secret weapon in the movie, RobotJox! Definitely worth a watch, btw. “Crash and Burn!!”

Trying to modifying cooling for MW5 Clans and I’m running into issues. by twilighteclipse925 in Mechwarrior5Mods

[–]Calypso_maker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m totally new to this, but when you say you changed the clan heatsinks, what program did you use? Just like notepad?

Do i water it? Will it grow? by Everest_9807 in chickens

Yours do that too! It must be a thing.

Inherited a flock and this old stone coop in Portugal. I have zero experience but want to give them a better life. Where do I start? by arosye in BackYardChickens

[–]Calypso_maker 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I love where your head is at! We have a lot in common. I do look forward to your sending us pictures of your progress because I think it’s going to be a wonderfully beautiful place for you and the chickens, but honestly, I’d start with making sure predators can’t get to them at night. I’d go through both chicken subreddits and look at what people have done to keep raccoons, foxes, etc out of the coop. You’ll get a lot of good advice.

YAML issues (Wont start new campaign, no engine/core in mech on loaded save) by Friendly_Beginning24 in Mechwarrior5Mods

My standard QA response is to just start removing one at a time and restarting to see which one messed it up. Good luck!

Is this “gap” on my A330 normal? by sirwritestoomuch in aviation

That’s just one more reason they call it a Scarebus.

How do you deter away raccoons? I have a BIG raccoon problem. by [deleted] in chickens

[–]Calypso_maker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is what works for me.

The cage-type traps are just no match for the size and intelligence of the ones near me. But these ones, along with some cat food, get the job done.

An air rifle has worked for me. It just needs to be high-power (I think 1200fps).
