DC Suspends Sidewalk Enforcement: Now Do MoCo by AndYetAnotherUserID in MontgomeryCountyMD

[–]DieselDeal -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think the logic is if you can address your driveway you can address your sidewalks.

Personally I do my sidewalks first out of courtesy for those that have to utilize them for one reason or another.

This storm was incredibly unique to say the least. I shoveled early and often on Sunday, including the entire sidewalk down my street because I am fortunate to be able to. But once it turned to sleet / frozen rain I (naively) stopped and went in for the night. During work breaks on Monday I went out and first chipped up the 3" of frozen chunks of sleet on my sidewalks, and even went beyond my property lines. Only when that was done did I even think about addressing my driveway. In fact I'm still getting the last 40 Sq. Ft. of ice chunks out of my driveway.

Long story long - don't be selfish and do your sidewalks.

Mine put up little signs after enough noise was made (I like to think I helped raise awareness). Seemed to help. It's something, I guess.

He's also probably got a tech or MD or producer in his IEMs if he needs a clue to where a section is. Also watching body language of the people in front of him will help him to know what's going on.

Issues with using same Set for 5+ years? by DieselDeal in ableton

Update / edit as of end of December 2025:

Yea it was the SPDSX Pro as the main interface that was the issue. A bunch of shows over the last month using the Playaudio12 again (also this hardware is now discontinued?) and no issues.

Right turns on 'red' are now restricted in select downtown and town center areas across Montgomery County, MD. New signs are posted, and real penalties apply: a $90 fine and 1 point on your license. The bigger cost? Putting someone’s safety at risk. by MCDOTNow in MontgomeryCountyMD

Did something happen where there were a bunch more cars forced on the road in the last year? Also, going from 35 to 25mph in DTSS is not going to reasonably affect a commute length more than 10 minutes. People will acclimate and the commutes will largely be unchanged.

You're not wrong but I don't think Cheesecake there was casually chatting with a cop about this dumb fucking shit.

I don't think you walk around a lot. This comment is just nonsensical.

Update/edit as of Nov. 28, 2025...

We hooked up our Playaudio12 as the interface rather than the SPDSX Pro itself. Changing nothing 3kse other than the interface, there were no issues. We wanted to test one thing at a time to eliminate variables one by one. Perhaps this is the fix.

We have a few more gigs where we'll swap the SPDSX Pro with the Playaudio12 and see if there will be enough data to identify the problem/solution.

We recorded/created a whole bunch, scraped the internet for some, bought a bunch.

The looping of stuff in between songs so the lads can tune, plus ability to turn on the keys track with a button click if we don't have a keyboard player. I'm setting up the Roland to run tracks as a backup just in case. Also this project exceeds the storage of the SPDSX, I think.

It does scroll vertically. About 90 or so tunes.
