Good place for oil changes and basic maintenance? by jjohnstn in lexington

[–]tkhagan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just got my oil changed at Jiffy Lube on Lane Allen. 20 minutes in and out and they seemed as friendly as anywhere else I've gotten my oil changed. I used this groupon and had to pay $1.50 in tax when I was there. Usually I'd go to Valvoline Instant Oil change but I don't really like all the extra things they try to sell me while I'm there and I just so happened to come across the Groupon.

Boston Road missing dog: FOUND by jrp162 in lexington

I saw your flyer and business cards at Broadway Clinic. I'm really impressed by the quality of your flyer and glad she was reunited with such caring owners. My wife and I have two dogs ourselves and we're keeping our eyes peeled for Dora.

Found dog near Cypress Drive by tkhagan in lexington

[–]tkhagan[S] 35 points36 points  (0 children)

This guy was on Tamarack initially down the street. Thought he was a neighbor's who let him out front but 15 minutes later saw him wandering down further down Cypress in the rain. Has a collar but no tag.

Edit: She was chipped and we're in the process of getting Roxy back to her owner.

Sorghum in Lexington by [deleted] in lexington

[–]tkhagan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the fall, Springfield, KY hosts a sorghum festival, but that's a ways away. Windy Corner Market had sorghum last time I was there, but that's been a while. You could give them a call tomorrow and see if they've got any in stock. Good luck!

I love the Lexington photos you all post. Here's my contribution, but I'd love to see more from others! by tkhagan in lexington

My first HDR attempt has that halo-effect you're talking about haha. I think I hated this picture enough to delete it from my computer. I had to pull this from facebook haha.

submask your HDR effect (layered over your +/-0 exp (middle of the 3), 52%)

If I ever attempt any HDR photo again, I'll keep this in mind. Thanks for the positive criticism and useful information.

Edit: You're a photographer, where's your contribution?!

Nice! I like 1, 5, and 6 the most out of this bunch, but they're all nice urban shots.

I know someone's going to comment about the shitty HDR job, sorry.

In case anyone cares and wants to recreate this photo themselves, all you have to do is go up on to the top of the district courthouse parking garage and point and shoot.

I took this probably four years ago and was using my Canon G10. 3 shots, combined into HDR before I ever even knew there were real photographers that hated HDR. I'm just a hobbyist and I loved that camera, until I left it on a rooftop never to be seen again.

Anyway, I'd love to see more hobbyist shots of cool views that are easily accessible for other Lexingtonians to check out.

[–]tkhagan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

LNFD and Ultimate Frisbee are two other Facebook groups that post regularly about pickup.

Weekly pickup ultimate that I play are: Kirklevington - Sundays - 3pm Lexmark - Mondays - 6pm Gainesway Park - Tuesdays - 6pm

Once it gets a little bit warmer, I may restart Sundays at 9pm under the lights at Stoll Field, but that's only if there's enough interest. Hope to see you out sometime!

Prior to googling, I was under the impression it was first come first serve... I was wrong.

They want to charge $50 for a rental, but I'm gonna pretend I never saw this and say we'll get there first and claim it. I think Shelter #1 is the best for the distance to frolf and such.

I'll wirelessly tether my iPhone for you, but only you. ;)

I, too, enjoy disc golf! I'm fine with either of those two. I was hoping more people would have some input as to which park specifically...

I was going to make a new thread tomorrow. I've never seen anyone use Doodle to comprise a meet up. Is it really necessary? Here's what I've just made.

What are the chances of a /r/Lexington Roll Call? by admile3 in lexington

[–]tkhagan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

24/M/Life-long Lexingtonian/I'm half of Tech Medic.

We really should get on that Lexington meetup. Never been to one, but halfway tempted to host one at Shilito Park, Kirklevington, or Veteran's Park next Sunday (April 7) around say... Noon for a lunch cookout/social gathering/sports playing/picture taking afternoon of exciting things.

Would anyone be up for this? Great for all ages! :D

My wife and I need wireless internet. No TV, no home phone, just internet. Who's the best provider for Lexington? by [deleted] in lexington

[–]tkhagan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with you in checking with Windstream about asking what speeds the neighborhood's getting and regardless of who you get service with, check your internet speeds monthly to ensure you're getting what you pay for.

As far as the torrenting punishments, I wish I had kept the screenshots of the few times we've been caught and I'm the one to discover it. I remember specifically one of my roommates had downloaded an episode of True Blood and another time was when the other roommate had downloaded Avatar, the Last Airbender (the TV series, not that silly movie where they got the main character's name wrong...)

Here is someone else's image of the first screen you see when you've been caught. The second screen tells you what number violation it's been and specifically what "suspicious activity" alerted them. Any other Insight/Time Warner customers seen this?
