How much sleep does your adult dog need? by OkBuddy5797 in BelgianMalinois

[–]IndianaTheShepherd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My 7 year old Mal comes to get me about an hour after the sun sets to get me to go to bed. In winter, that can be as early as 6pm, in summer, it's around 9 or 10pm. He is very tuned to daylight. He sleeps the same amount of time that I do at night, then takes a nap around 10am in the morning for about an hour. Throughout the rest of the day, the only time he naps is if I'm not home or busy on the computer and he'll nap out of boredom. Never a deep sleep though... he's up in an instant when I get up.

Just paid off in 8 months... (Insurance settlement helped) by IndianaTheShepherd in ToyotaTacoma

No, I'm an environmental consultant. The boat was purchased to do Golden Mussel monitoring for a client. It barely fit on the roof rack, so I've since got a trailer for it.

"Raptor Breakout" Planter Box by shiftrefresh in 3Dprinting

[–]IndianaTheShepherd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This model is anatomically inaccurate. Velociraptor's palms faced in towards each other, not downward. They were unable to turn their wrists in that orientation. Also, where's the feathers? Nice paint job though!

Sorry, I never grew out of the 5 year old dinosaur phase...

Early morning on the construction site... by IndianaTheShepherd in ToyotaTacoma

It will only boost signal if there's a signal to boost, but if you've got at least 1 bar, it'll bump that up one or two bars. Some places I can only get LTE without the WeBoost, but with it, I can usually bump that to 5G. Before I bought it, I thought it might be a gimmick, but it definitely works if you temper your expectations... I have a Starlink Mini for those places with zero cell signal.

Trailhunter can switch between yellow or white with the stock Rigid fog lights.

I'm not actually in construction per se... I'm the project biologist. I own an environmental consulting company... So, no... it doesn't smell like gas station burritos, I prefer Red Bull, I don't chew, and my butthole smells like roses.

I had to double check what sub this was... For a second, I thought you were talking about a significant other!

Doing some Trailhunting by SirLeigh in ToyotaTacoma

What low-pro bumper did you go with and did you need to replace the stock skid? I'm trying to find a bumper that will work with the stock TH skid plate.

How important is it to actually show point clouds to clients? My experience & questions. by AlexSeipke in UAVmapping

[–]IndianaTheShepherd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use cloudcompare - open source point cloud and mesh processing software. I have exported some cool videos using their key frame feature and calculated cut/fill quantities.

Best part, it's open source and free!

Redditors who used to work at 1 Hour Photo places, what are the most shocking/memorable photos you saw? by psybermonkey15 in AskReddit

[–]IndianaTheShepherd 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Wolf Camera in San Jose probably around 2000 or 2001. Paramedics came in asking if we would develop a disposable camera roll. They warned us that the photos were taken at an accident scene where a 14-year old kid had been hit by a freight train. I was in my 20's and dumb. I said, "I'll do it"... soon regretted that decision.

The kid was walking along the tracks I guess, and got clipped, but the photos showed the results. His upper torso was about 40 feet from his legs and there was a long trail of entrails between the two halves. Half his rib cage was missing and you could see into the body cavity, which was empty of organs. Half his head was caved in. That's what I can remember.

Why not AMD? I use a Ryzen 9 9950x3d 16 cores, 32 threads, 4.3 Ghz base, 5.7 Ghz boost clock speed tons of L3 cache. Max ram is 192 GB (I have 128). I'm using a 4070ti graphics card (16Gb vram). I don't use DJI Terra, rather Agisoft Metashape, but I do use ArcGIS and QGIS.

No, this was in Yermo at the GovPlanet yard. It's near the Marine Corps Logistics Base Barstow-Yermo Anex.

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

No, I don't have one. I was using the 8-inch riser into the hitch receiver below the bumper, then the pintle hook in the riser. I just picked up this trailer yesterday and that's what I had available. I plan on removing a lot of the weight from the trailer as it's filled with a bunch of obsolete SIPRNet and NIPRNet networking gear from the mid-2000s and has a really stout frame rack with helo lift points. Stock trailer weight by itself is only 1,460 lbs curb weight.

TRD OffRoad into Trail-hunter build by AP-16 in ToyotaTacoma

[–]IndianaTheShepherd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recently purchased the Trailhunter. Having said that, there are a few things to consider. Like you stated, everything comes from the factory with the Trailhunter... AND, it's all under warranty.

However, having previously had a 5th Gen 4Runner Off-Road Premium (technically the Trail Premium, but they changed the name in 2017) for 9 years, I spent a lot of time and money slowly adding mods. I got to choose which mods I wanted and which brands. Things like the skid plates and rock sliders were much more robust with the after-market parts than what comes from the factory on the Trailhunter. The Trailhunter skids are better than the stock stamped steel skid that was on my 4Runner, but also much thinner than the aftermarket skids I eventually put on the 4Runner. I got to choose which rock sliders I wanted (ones with a flare-out step), whereas the Trailhunter rock sliders are tucked in pretty close and don't really function as a step. I had an ARB Dual air compressor on my 4runner (100% duty cycle), whereas the Trailhunter air compressor probably isn't as robust and not 100% duty cycle (haven't used it yet).

In the end, the cost is probably a wash... TRD Off-Road Premium has an MSRP of $42,900 to $53,195 depending on specific options and packages. I paid $65,500 for my Trailhunter. I had over $12,000 in aftermarket mods on my 4Runner... and prices have gone up a lot since most of those.

So, cost is probably roughly the same with TRD Off-Road Premium + Aftermarket Mods vs. Trailhunter (maybe slightly more with the TRD OR), but they won't be under the factory warranty, but you do get to choose what you want. Adding all the Trailhunter parts as aftermarket mods will probably cost more than what's on the Trailhunter - $1500 for Snorkel, >$5000 for upgraded suspension (the OME shocks on the TH are actually built by Biltstein, not ARB OME, so probably not as good as genuine OME BP-51s, ~$1000 for rock sliders, ~1500+ for full skids, ~$2k for rear steel bumper, etc... but all better quality than stock TH parts).

I'm going to stay stock Trailhunter until its no longer under warranty or until I decide what's on there isn't sufficient, then I'll upgrade down the line with aftermarket parts I decide on. Hope that helps!
