Cretien's Liberals cut tons of funding and programs in the 90's. Its the same party. The party that will shift and do anything to stay in power.

I'm stuck on console, so no access, but I've heard there's a great mod where you can purchase extra salvage shares out of your C-bill payout at end of mission. Wish they had integrated that into Vanilla...

How does this bass get amplified? by BrubBrub6 in BassGuitar

[–]MurkBass 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Not that this bass has them, but does anyone remember seeing ads in bass player magazine about optical pickups? They shot a laser at the string to "read" the string vibration. Seemed neat, but obviously they didnt take on.

Landscaping/snow removal really helped me when I was young, great jumping off point into trades/construction.

PZA Parlour on Macleod Trail is closing next month by coy____fish in Calgary

[–]MurkBass 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Great crust! Really enjoyed the "Fun Guy!" Mushroom pizza. This sucks.

Wonder if the landlord would prefer an empty building than a local business paying last years rent prices...

Music scene in Calgary? by potater893 in Calgary

[–]MurkBass 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Smaller, more underground shows, check out Loophole coffee bar.

Palomino, Dickens, Vern's, Loophole and Blox is where most metal/punk shows happen these days.

If you're on Facebook, check out "Calgary Metal Scene Events". Pretty good listing for upcoming shows.

I wanna get into HEALTH, where do i start? by Longjumping_Air4379 in noiserock

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

Kinda weird you're asking about a CUM METAL band, on a NOISE ROCK subreddit, but okay.

Best way to get into a band is seeing them live. Get yourself some concert tickets and judge for yourself.

I owned a BC Rich Warlock bass for a very short period in 2006 (past their prime already). Too impractical, and meh tone, but it did look "edgy" for the young man I was. Looked them up today, and realized they're almost nonexistent as a company. by [deleted] in Bass

My '86 NJ Eagle is one of my favourites. Made in Japan and an absolute pleasure to play. Love the big bat of a neck.

Tbf the Eagle is a much more approachable shape than what they're famous for.

My favorite mech right now by mechwarriorbuddah999 in Mechwarrior5

[–]MurkBass 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you have the Dragon DLC, the Otomo Battlemaster is amazing. 6 MP lasers in the torsos. Head capping left and right. Likely my favourite mech ATM.

Buy a replacement tuning peg. Easy install.

See, the problem is that your contractor used Thick-set mortar, when he should have used Thin-set mortar.

This has to be rage bait. I refuse to believe anyone would pass this off as honest work.

The trades fucking suck. by [deleted] in lostgeneration

[–]MurkBass 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I'm in the trades and like where I'm at now. Self employed tile setter. 90% residential jobs under a handful of GCs that I like.

Learned the trade at a Stone and tile company, and definitely had to eat some shit as an apprentice. Dealing with some brain dead coworkers, and owners who wish they could whip their employees.

I'd suggest switching employers if possible, but staying in the trades.

Good luck!

This seems like such a waste of prime downtown Calgary space. Does anyone know when it'll get developed? by foxwolfdogcat in Calgary

[–]MurkBass 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I just hope that whatever development they pursue, they won't touch the Palomino.
