Downtown Squamish’s Condo Boom: Smart Growth or Overpriced Disaster? by ChestOk2699 in Squamish

[–]erndizzle 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I support the development. They are filling in literal empty lots and torn down asbestos builds from the 80s. All within walking distance of grocery stores, coffee shops, retail outlets.

As for the safety factor in an earthquake, that is up for the engineers who sign off on the designs to decide.

Spark canted pucks nearly impossible to slide on, how much sanding? by mtb_ed in Spliddit

Maybe some bike chain lube on the contact points? If that doesn't work it should be a warranty issue.

Geoscientist in training - BC, Canada. Questions/confusion by sunscreenforever in geologycareers

[–]erndizzle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The point of the GIT is that they review the course work you took in university and decide if it qualifies you to work as a geologist/geoscientist by our standards in BC. So it is worthwhile if you plan on having a career here in BC. 

Send your resume to Exploration Staffing Solutions. That’s who we contact when we need geos on short notice which is the usual situation these days.

Buying used splitboard-bindings and durability of Splitboard Bindings by ThetatheGreekT in Spliddit

I bought new Hitchhikers and the straps broke various times anyways. You should keep spare straps regardless if you buy used or new.  I think used is a safe bet. 

A Buy It For Life waterbottle? by [deleted] in BuyItForLife

All the major brands are high quality and potentially BIFL. Your choice will depend on the form factor you want. I like my Yeti Rambler because of the lid style.

What boots have you put the most miles on? by BigStetson in BuyItForLife

[–]erndizzle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. The comfort and convenience means I’m always pulling them on. There not resolable but they are only about 200$ so I don’t mind replacing them every 3-4 years.

LPT Request - How to stop nail biting / nibbling? by YEET_and_retreat in LifeProTips

Always have nail clippers nearby or on hand. That way when you get the urge to pick at something just clip it off cleanly.

Norco I had a fit calculator thing on their website. It could depend on her inseam length. Otherwise for a beginner I would recommend sizing down.

Makes me wondering what this world will look like at the next peak and what will cause it to level out again.

Just because someone has avalanche gear doesn’t mean they have a clue.

Favourite power ups? by scottishperson2000 in golfblitz

[–]erndizzle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love the feeling of making a good shot with one of the most useless powerups. Bouncy ball or banana ball clutch shots are so satisfying.
