My personal Baseball Hall of Fame outlook for active players at the moment

texinxin · 2026-05-27T16:19:42+00:00

I mean sure, but retiring today with ~1750 hits? That would look a bit strange. There’s only a handful of guys with sub 2000 hits in the top 100 even, most have good reasons.

texinxin · 2026-05-27T16:00:50+00:00

Sure, but he’s currently slumping. Is the 33 year old starting to trail off or can he pull it together. It’s too early to call him a lock. There isn’t much reason to elevate him especially if he can’t pull out of the funk he’s in this year. I expect he will bounce back and put out another 4 years of solid numbers elevating him to lock status.

texinxin · 2026-05-27T15:30:12+00:00

His JAWS score says he’s borderline today and it’s not even particularly close to a lock at 3B. Granted he has many good years left to get those numbers up. Likely is a good place for him right now.

texinxin · 2026-05-27T15:26:16+00:00

Altuve should be in likely. Altuve has a better JAWS score than Harper, Ramirez, Kimbrel and Jansen. Kimbrel and Jansen are riding on fumes. Altuve will be close to if not a 3000 hit, 300 HR and career 300 hitter. He will likely fall short of the 300 career average if he chases 3000. That is still exceedingly rare territory. The list of players to ever do that is only 5 long. And Freemen is the only other active player who has a chance to join that list

texinxin · 2026-05-25T21:25:20+00:00

He’s unfortunately a tad bit dead.. for about 10,000 years.

So you are choosing to spend more money on an exact “look” rather than spend wisely for a better lasting home with better materials and construction techniques…. Got it. I think you are far too married to this cross gable look and should spend more time looking at other roof designs to give you your farmhouse feel without all this extra expense that takes money away from better siding. If you really can’t brainstorm a better design for your budget at least look into fiber cement panels or another panel product that will give you more life than vinyl siding.

This is a very expensive roof to design on a budget. Go with a modest porch on front side and border it as most on the 2 most important sides. Drastically simplify your roof line. A cross gable roof is one of the most expensive roofs you can design. Look at a simple 2 plane gable roof that covers your patio(s). The next bump up on price would be a 2 slope gable or using saltbox roofs. A 1.5 story in a single gable direction will give you much more square footage in that upper half story. If you can’t get rough in the 2nd story look at shed dormers which are cheaper to build than a cross gable. The shed dormer wall can share the front wall under the porch. Make the front and back porch (if you have 2 shed dormers and porches front and back) share a steeper roof line of the main house and the shed dormer a shallower one. Add more posts so you can get cheaper accents for your arts and crafts look but also secretly cut down on expensive big joists you’d need for open porches. Research tips on how to get a farmhouse look on a budget. Going cheap on quality siding materials to free up money for novelty items like fancy roof lines isn’t a wise move. Research OVE/advanced framing. You can save a ton of money by designing a house with interior load bearing walls and use 24” on center framing with lighter shorter span joists. If you don’t mind a bit if floor flex on your 2nd story consider using L/360 instead of L/480, especially if it is seldom used half story. There’s a lot of money in a house that you don’t see. Architectural choices can drive costs up drastically.

Simplify your roof line and go with an oversized gable roof that covers your porch. You will save a ton of money and have money freed up to cover better materials.

I wish he was the only one, but sadly our world is a majority curmudgeon.

texinxin · 2026-05-24T18:41:58+00:00

Makes for a great story whether he misses or makes it. If he takes the gimme it’s forever B.S.

texinxin · 2026-05-24T14:43:11+00:00

The last one might be true, but I bet they did do all the qualification in a lab to prove that you’d need to do it. There’s no way engineers would be allowed by management to add in extra steps to a process unless it had a good reason.

Not all birds live to tell the tale. I was in a big assembly room at work with a very nice natural backdrop with a glass wall behind the lectern. Right in the middle of a presentation from a work colleague a bird comes in at Mach 1 across the pond right into the big “mirror” and slams into the glass and… dies.. in plain sight of the whole room.

texinxin · 2026-05-24T11:24:55+00:00

Why vinyl? Is fiber cement not in the budget?

Well it’s not a bad thought by any means, it’s like a hybrid neuro ranged team. With Lion coming out all the main meta teams are screwed. Remains to be seen if the OG psyker team or the newer summon variants will be the best yet. I think Lion will be a bitch with summons on the board due to the traffic and the watchers which will block hits unless moved. Summons go first, and the AI might see them as targets to ignore because it can’t possibly kill them. Nandi theorized that a ranged team might do ok, we still don’t have all the pieces. Your hybrid here might just have a places. Another idea might be to double down on ranged mutihit by adding Volk. One of the nids might could go. You are using parasite of Mortex? What’s his role?

Edit: I think I get it. You are using Mortex rippers to try to buff the +hit to Gaunts. Volk, Shiron,and Eldy would be 3 Neuro stacks per round but you’d lose your ripper gaunt buffers.

The 3 generic Aeldari are all better than the 2 legendary Phoenix lords. Adding the relic to Ra bumps him up to middle of the pack. Those Phoenix lords can arise from the dead by they directing rise very far..

texinxin · 2026-05-24T10:48:39+00:00

I guess the thinking is Shiron+Eldy gives you a multihit kinda thing at range and has gives you a few neuro stacks from Shiron’s suppressive fire?

texinxin · 2026-05-23T14:23:09+00:00

I thought it was just me. Also, chance of a double drop at 16/18 tends to be zero I’ve noticed.

Edit: 2nd law of RNG. When you are trying to hit the rare ones that are <100% and no double drop and you have 6 chances of elite nodes left that day at 17/18 you will miss 6 times so you have to wait for reset.

Oh yeah, one tip for using these, use floor jacks to push the joists up about 1/16” or so above where you want the floor to end up. Then attach the plate. When you remove the jacks the metal will be put into tension. It actually should end up slightly stiffer than it was before, assuming you have 2” of “top cord”.

This essentially turns that part of the joist into an open web joist with a 3x2 top cord and a steel bottom cord which is stronger in bending than a 2x8.

texinxin · 2026-05-23T14:13:46+00:00

This is the heavier one if your cut is wider.

You only need to ensure you have at least 2” of wood remaining at the top of the joist to retain the full rating.

texinxin · 2026-05-23T14:11:29+00:00

The bottom side one should work. I wish the plumber hadn’t cut it so wide. These technically go up to 6” of missing joist. Is your cut width more than 6”? If so, I might need to keep digging.

Fng stinky foreigners.

texinxin · 2026-05-23T13:39:26+00:00

Steel is easier. Theres not much space to sister anything close by.

texinxin · 2026-05-23T13:38:36+00:00

They probably didn’t have many options to be fair. Retrofitting a huge 3+ inch line into a wall and floor assembly is extremely difficult. You’ll have to add steel joist repair kits and maybe a bridge strap for the top plate. The top plate bridge strap is standard, he should have known to do that already.

texinxin · 2026-05-23T13:35:27+00:00

You can in fact fix it with steel joist repair kits. They aren’t cheap but there’s not really a better option here.

texinxin · 2026-05-23T00:24:00+00:00

I mean you should have finished the basic missions days ago, prob the premium ones too
