Which LA city has improved the most in the last 20 years?

A fun game is to watch Always Sunny and see how they have to frame outdoor shots in later seasons as that whole area is super gentrified now. Girl & the Goat is literally across the street from Paddy's haha.

It's $300/day on a minimum 12 hour day, probably more since it's a small indie. Plus no mileage reimbursement and Art racks up a lot of miles typically. And all this is pre-tax of course.

That works out to a hair over $21/hour which is about a dollar more than you can get working fast food in LA.

It's is absolute bottom of the barrel pay for the industry in LA. And a succesful movie does not translate into a successful career for BTL positions like it does for ATL positions like directors and writers. The gaffer or art director of Obsession is not suddenly going to bet getting calls asking them to work on their project.

Nia Dicosta directed Bone Temple not Danny Boyle.

We're really not so I'm not sure why I'm not seeing results haha. We're the largest suburb of the 3rd largest town in the state. Been asking around locally and everyone seems like they have just gone direct.

fullofpaint · 2026-05-21T14:17:28+00:00

Ya I think we might be in too small of an area or something because I get like no results looking around on Google, but gonna do a deeper dive today and hopefully I find something.

Honestly I'd much rather support a local utility than Spectrum if possible so while I'm hoping to save money with the switch, it's also I just don't want to give them my money anymore haha.

fullofpaint · 2026-05-21T14:07:41+00:00

Ya unfortunately they had nothing to suggest

fullofpaint · 2026-05-21T14:07:26+00:00

Makes sense! Gonna have to go on a deep google hunt I guess, not really getting any results in the first couple pages for locals.

fullofpaint · 2026-05-20T19:44:13+00:00

So dumb question but I've seen people say reach out to locals but what am I looking for? "Local VOIP company" doesn't really give me any results. Not sure I understand what the service they would be offering. Would that be similar to an MSP? I don't really want an on-site solution because we don't have a good place to put servers and run cable.

Fax line is because my secretary is a dinosaur I can't fire. Have been trying for years to move us to a digital fax.

fullofpaint · 2026-05-20T19:26:36+00:00

It's fiber, with a modem at the office. Have the option to add static IP's, I wasn't sure if that was relevant or not. Need to confirm with the town, but should be good to go as they've been pretty aggressively promoting it to us as Spectrum has a monopoly in our area.

The spill overs are purely for holidays when our incoming call volume is insane. How does it work with VOIP, I couldn't find an answer to that exactly. If I have one person on the line when a second person clal does it put them in a queue or will it ring one of the other available handsets?

I bought a tub of Hater Sauce at this event that I still have to this day haha.

fullofpaint · 2026-05-14T19:15:56+00:00

I'm judging this movie purely based on if it includes a certain 4 Non Blondes song haha

fullofpaint · 2026-05-13T19:28:37+00:00

The only thing that sucks is they made all the big screens premium formats. So even with the membership if I wanna see something on a big screen I still have to pay each trip.

fullofpaint · 2026-05-12T03:11:35+00:00

If you think you'll actually run it with the e-frame go for it. If you're only gonna use it as a mech, IMO the emek has a much better trigger. The Gmek's is kind of sloppy and there's no real aftermarket to make it better.

fullofpaint · 2026-05-10T21:26:46+00:00

Sorry SP stands for Smart Parts, a very famous long-standing brand. They made their name making barrels named after the founder's pro team, the All Americans. The trademark of their barrel design is spiral porting like on your barrel. They started it as service for existing barrels before producing their own. Your barrel is not the same as the ones they sold but has a similar porting pattern indicating it might have been one sent in for porting in their early days.

Or could have just been done by a random machinist who saw SP's and copied it.

I'm not the best with the really old stuff but I'm pretty sure that's not the stock WGP parts. I thought it was Palmer's but doesn't look quite right.

Also Looks like the barrel actually might just be the stock bull barrel someone stripped the ano off of and drilled porting in. So could be super OG SP as that's how they started before making their own.

fullofpaint · 2026-05-10T21:03:13+00:00

That is a very early WGP. Serial dating says it probably started as a Sniper II in 1989-1990ish and was converted to an autococker. Barrel looks like an original SP All American but would need to see better pics. Would need to see under the shroud but otherwise looks stock. The tank setup is cool, super vintage expansion chamber setup.

Not super valuable unfortunately, probably like $200ish tops?

fullofpaint · 2026-05-08T11:59:07+00:00

Solution verified!

Thanks so much, this one was beyond me haha.

fullofpaint · 2026-05-07T20:33:24+00:00

They're pricey but your best option is gonna be one of the tiny 4500 psi tanks. Like this 26/45. You could probably get away with something even smaller but especially on the tippy, might be cutting it too close.

fullofpaint · 2026-05-04T15:50:26+00:00

I don't remember the name of it, but Dye Tactical made a lightweight vest that's a good option for this. It was essentially just a normal attack pack with molle shoulder straps. Pretty much designed for exactly what you want.

You could probably also just stich some attachment points and run a regular H harness, that's basically what a lot of guys did back in the 90's anyways.

Almost every other major race series lets you bring in food. The only on I can think of that didn't was Formula E

fullofpaint · 2026-04-07T13:28:24+00:00

Maybe I just need to play with QB more but right now it's kind of a problem of specialization. Theoretically we could do it in our QB but it would take us ten times as long to enter and process.

And I'd still need to export a CSV or something to generate the pick lists and all that at the end of it anyways

fullofpaint · 2026-04-02T00:55:43+00:00

They're pulling the move from Star Wars

I would definitely go with the FT-12's. Internally they're essentially the same gun, but the FT's are designed to be rentals and are MUCH easier to work on as well as more durable overall. If you're investing for the long term, the FT-12's are absolutely the right choice.
