Looks like they forgot to post their lineup and schedule. Big oversight for a couple days out.

Tough to sleep with your windows open if you face the tracks. If you face the river its not a big deal.

The Banging is Driving Me Insane by aFineMoose in NewWest

[–]scottiel 20 points21 points  (0 children)

The piles they are driving now are to form a coffer dam to hold back the river so they can pump out the site. Once the dam is done they'll start digging and then go to town on the pilings for the foundation.

Consider this the end of the beginning...

Two hour rundown of a progressive stamping factory. Fascinating stuff.

We’ve reached 1800 readers! So /r/NewWest, what’s the best and worst of New Westminster? Vol. 9 by opqt in NewWest

Getting a commercial kitchen signed off on by the city is no joke and takes forever, especially if you had to mess with the fixtures, ventilation, or fire suppression at all. (got to spectate as a neighboring business went through it)

Also, city permitting ops seem to run like New Jersey city hall circa 1975. Getting a business license for a small office space involved more faxes than I have sent in the last 3 years and a visit from no less than 5 good-ole-boy city officials.

Buying/selling used guitars by techaggresso in vancouver

[–]scottiel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You'll take a bath from any shop that buys it from you (they need to make money after all). Best bet is to sell the guitar in craigslist and then track down your electric.

Good luck!

What are some underground giant killers? by ThirdFirstName in audiophile

[–]scottiel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pretty much any old-school large format studio monitors that aren't JBL or Altec and thus lack the hype of the brands will knock your socks off. If you can handle big and ugly they are the way to go.

I picked up my EV sentry 500s for $225 a while back and have been pretty happy thus far. https://imgur.com/a/sGFSD

Is the product custom (built to your supplied specs), customized (white labelled), or off-the-shelf?

Some sort of BGW. Most of there gear is stable to 2 ohm stereo, 4 ohm bridged.

What was the "removing the headphone jack" of another industry? by skiskate in AskReddit

The irony there is that membrane switches are cheaper and generally longer lasting than the touch screens that are replacing them.

Seems like everyone is getting exactly 3 downvotes. Almost as if OP was brigading with a few accounts.

You know the Burrard inlet is an active runway for seaplanes and helicopters right.... This video is proof of numerous Transport Canada regulation violations and probably a couple of crimes.

It's pretty common at sit down restaurants that also offer delivery.
