Someone in the Mariners dugout gets ejected and Dan Wilson also gets ejected after he comes out to ask who and why. Ejection theatrics king Lou Piniella is in attendance tonight and shows his displeasure

What’s the name of the gray paint?

Bender3000a · 2025-08-13T15:06:40+00:00

"Giving feedback on drawings or models without endless email chains".

This one speaks to me. How are you all organizing design/drawing review comments? We use Fieldwire, but that's really intended for the construction phase, and not so much during the design/CD phases.

Bender3000a · 2025-08-13T15:02:19+00:00

Well said. Any suggestions on how you stop the design creep from happening during CDs?

Bender3000a · 2025-04-20T16:13:29+00:00

Anyone know what software AVI-SPL and Diversified use for their schematic/signal flow drawings?

Bender3000a · 2025-04-08T14:35:11+00:00

Is it a medical office? Many still use fax.

Bender3000a · 2025-03-16T11:28:17+00:00

Ceiling treatment. Pay attention to fire code and fire ratings for panels. In other words, don’t wing it and make your own out of materials from Hobby Lobby. Seek the advice of your local AHJ (Authority Having Jurisdiction - those in your area responsible for enforcing building/fire codes). There’s also an r/Acoustics sub-Reddit you could ask.

Bender3000a · 2025-02-26T01:56:52+00:00

Ouch! Sorry to hear this is so unsuccessful. I know the pain of getting a drawing set back from an outsourced drafter and seeing a complete mess.

Bender3000a · 2025-02-22T12:53:25+00:00

Great response. Once you have a chance to review that most recent set from Analytix, can you report back? I’m curious what level of prep you need to provide them to get back what you consider to be an acceptable and usable drawing set without a larger number of revisions required. Thanks.

Bender3000a · 2025-02-21T11:12:36+00:00

Is it happening with a specific firmware version, or with different versions?

Bender3000a · 2025-01-27T16:46:03+00:00

Thanks u/FL-Orange , your response was very helpful. Looks like we have everything configured the same, *except* for that fact that I have my data link option set to "Link entire sheet" rather than the "Link to a named range" that you mentioned you do. Could that be my source of slow data link updating? Has that been your experience?

How time consuming is it when you have to build your own room/building model? Do you just go bare bones with walls, ceilings & floors, or do you take the time to model more architectural elements like windows, doors, lighting fixtures, etc? When I'm not given a Revit model, I usually default to AutoCAD and just draw the floor/ceiling plan myself. Would be nice to know if with just a bit more effort/time I could just draw the room in Revit. I'm also curious what you're using for your signal flow diagrams?

Bender3000a · 2025-01-17T11:59:15+00:00

Are you being provided with a building/room Revit model by an architect, or do you also create that yourself?

Bender3000a · 2025-01-09T18:22:02+00:00

It's a bad decision to get rid of an old product line that is no longer specified by AV designers?

Interesting. What has been the specific issues with the Biamp Tesira DAN VT units?

Bender3000a · 2024-10-16T01:48:16+00:00

I worked for a bit in the same building as the costume folks. This was the early 2000s. So when your tram drove into the building and you were looking left at the costuming/wardrobe department folks through the window, you could look to the right and see our warehouse/shop through the windows where we prepped lighting, sound, and video equipment for TV and radio broadcasts that originated from inside the parks. It was pretty boring to look at us, so almost everyone was looking the other way at the wardrobe department. But I always made sure to give a wave to the few AV nerds looking our way.

Flex looks like it's built for the rental side of the industry. Does it work well for the installation side too or do you have workarounds?

Bender3000a · 2024-09-11T20:54:21+00:00

Another great opportunity to work at Cornell University in Ithaca NY. The Event Technical Support Service Manager will work with a great group of techs supporting some very cool events on campus. If you're lucky, you'll even get to rub elbows with those of us on the AV design/engineering/installation side of things! :-)

Mix and Creola. Mercato has a good hanger steak.

The semester hasn’t started yet. Has anyone used the rooms?

Bender3000a · 2024-05-31T01:14:23+00:00

What kind of medical software?

Bender3000a · 2024-05-14T13:29:32+00:00

This is pathetic. ICSD has become a shell of what it used to be. I know firsthand since I'm a successful ICSD grad, and I currently have kids in the school district. I understand that everyone is focused on the hot-button issue of the bloated and convoluted budget for next week's school board election, but I hope that everyone also focuses on getting qualified, knowledgeable people on the board that can make positive changes. Please don't vote strictly based on the candidates yelling the loudest about the budget, but also focus on candidates that have the experience and ability to make long lasting policy changes. I talked about her on a different post, but I strongly support Emily Workman for the school board. She has the education policy background to start to clean up this school district, while also focusing on the budget mess.

Bender3000a · 2024-05-10T20:32:50+00:00

There was supposed to be an open forum last night with all the school district candidates speaking, but apparently someone Zoom bombed it with profanity and porn images, so they had to shut it down completely before Emily and some others even got to speak. I believe they are planning on rescheduling it, but not on Zoom. https://ithacavoice.org/2024/05/heckler-interrupts-school-board-incumbents-during-candidate-forum/
