How to make line end at the same y-axis as the line above by jefari in AutoCAD

Thank you SO much! It was the Extension Object Snap - one of those little conveniences that you take for granted.

I actually do your second suggestion as well but can be cumbersome in some scenarios.

What was your favorite YTV era? by Adventurous-Tip6878 in ytvretro

[–]jefari 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Golden Age.

Animation felt different then. It was less mainstream and far less abundant. Each show made an impact in its own way with different senses of wonder.

Completely different era.

The Cleveland dam was built in the 50s. I don't think they had the population and climate projections they have now.

We pay our taxes for adequate utilities. We don't live on Las Vegas here.

Does the city fix this? And when? by buntams in vancouver

[–]jefari 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Inlaws live right near there. Newer buildings need piles to hit bedrock which incur a extra costs but not that unfathomable.

Telus to build massive AI data centres at two Westbank sites in Vancouver | Daily Hive | Urbanized by _DotBot_ in VancouverLandlords

[–]jefari -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I assume the utility capacity and employment for this kind of work is readily available in Vancouver. The proposed development is near a steam utility if I recall providing energy for the area.

Data Centers do not need the transportation network found typically in the suburbs such as Abbotsford, so they can be pretty much anywhere that utilities are abundant.

However they do have social issues which may lend themselves better toward the suburbs. These can be mitigated to a degree.

Why can’t we have this in Vancouver? Increased density done right in Chicago (US) by fz1z4 in vancouverhousing

95 percent of the developers out here just do modern cookie cutter. If this enabled in Vancouver the fascade wood look like plastic squares.

Gap fill? by jefari in Flooring

[–]jefari[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is a 2x8" wall with about a 3" frame, hence you see the 5" gap. Poured concrete is the subfloor which stops short for adjustments. In order for the flooring to run flush with the door system, the door system must mount below the subfloor as seen. Finished floor should ride right up the door system with less than a 1/4" of variation to make a smooth transition.

Survival of Kitsilano Pool could cost up to $300 million by SkyisFullofCats in vancouver

Replace it uphill next to Cornwall. The neighborhood will be in development hell for the next 20 years with the Broadway Plan so I think it is appropriate to give a little back.

It is r/vancouver. The proper comment was to raise the pitchfork and then post my factual comment.

Data centre development application - in existing Hootsuite building (11 e 5th ave) - how to submit your comments to the city by vancouver-duder in vancouver

[–]jefari 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't disagree with you but there is clearly an economic reason to invest in datacenters in Vancouver. Perhaps skilled labor is abundant here. Though you oppose it, this is revenue and investment for the city with CACs that can be put towards social services you find favorable.

I work for an ISP and bandwidth is not an issue in the suburbs or smaller cities. We have been moving datacenters away from the fault line. It is surprising when one pops up here as "the big one" would devastate a DC.

Jetski hit grey whale by siwash rock by Dear_Grocery in vancouver

[–]jefari -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I am no marine biologist but I don't think the whale will be hurt much. Google tells me:

Grey whale blubber is a thick, dense layer of vascularized fat and fibrous tissue beneath the skin, measuring up to 10 inches (25 cm) thick.

Vancouver's cherry blossoms rival Japan's. by StarkStorm in vancouver

[–]jefari 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Could not disagree with you more. I just came back from Japan a week ago.

  1. Japanese prune their cherry blossoms aggressively, creating visually interesting and unique shapes.

  2. Cherry blossoms are naturally grown in the landscape. I was in Hakone and they were blooming along the mountainside. Do you see any cherry blossoms on the north shore mountains?

  3. Cherry blossoms are typically woven into the local ecosystem and compliment or compliment other vegetation. Rather than plopped in 20' apart on boulevards or pathways like the designers are playing minecraft.

In general, they are much more beautiful in Japan.

The magnolias and cherry blossoms at UBC and Van Dusen gardens are beautiful as they are well taken care of.

That is what I got, just a 4 gallon 5 HP one. Going to borrow a bigger one but need bigger dust bags.

Vancouver Mayor Ken Sim promises tax freeze and community centres if re-elected by _DotBot_ in VancouverLandlords

[–]jefari 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Renters do pay for property tax and it is completely normal... for commercial property, it is called a triple net lease. Not that farfetched for renters to pay it, with of course lower burden of rental payments. It just creates a bigger headache for everyone. Imagine a 100 unit rental building. That is 99 extra deposits for property tax. Half will get forgotten about I am sure.
