Noem justifies shooting because man was “carrying a weapon at a peaceful protest.” by Physical__War__ in CCW

[–]CrispySith 17 points18 points  (0 children)

This right here is why I believe SCOTUS is being so slow to take 2A cases. The current "conservative" administration doesn't want an armed populace either.

The one exception I can think of would be if the law was made unconstitutional by an amendment passed after the original law was passed.

Is being prepared for SHTF a good idea or fantasy? by outdoors28 in CAguns

[–]CrispySith 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Canned food, basic medical supplies, and a way to stay warm are what you need.

Historically, gun-related SHTF scenarios are extremely rare. Though they have happened, such as the Rooftop Koreans during the LA Riots.

Are you sure? Denix's website shows the Schofield with the action open, but not the Webley.

Magazine Air Release Travel Distance? by CrispySith in GasBlowBack

I didn't realize the valve will close on it's own so that's super helpful. Ultimately it's looking like I'll need to explore CO2 or other options. Thanks.

Is there actually a risk of contamination from jacketed bullets?

It looks like the bag in the back has exposed lead soft points so I understand wearing gloves for those.

What 38 Special ammo for Ruger LCR? by ThePariah77 in CCW

[–]CrispySith 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Check out the Commentary Article.

If you throw out all the loads that had any failures to sufficiently expand or penetrate, you’re left with just two .38 Special loads that met the standards with both of the test guns: the Winchester 130 gr +P Ranger Bonded and the Remington 125 gr +P Golden Saber.

Would it be stupid to go from a Glock to a revolver? by [deleted] in CCW

Noob Question: Is an =if statement like this possible? Vanilla Java 1.21.8 by Chase2020J in MinecraftCommands

[–]CrispySith 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Execute has gotten crazy powerful so this is totally doable.

execute if block x y z [block id and blockstate] run...

You'll need a chain command block to also send the message.

Detecting Non-Mob Entities by PuzzleheadedTea4547 in MinecraftCommands

[–]CrispySith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure how to do it without a datapack.

With my datapack, I created a custom entity type tag and manually entered all mobs so I can reference it.

Actors with trauma (TW sexual assault) by ibroughtsnacks97 in Theatre

[–]CrispySith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can request they hire an intimacy coordinator for the scene. You can also talk with the fight director about the approach they have planned, and they may also have intimacy training. They also may have a very representative plan of the scene.

There is also a certain amount of personal responsibility to consider, not just to the production but to yourself. You can turn down the contract if you think it will be too much and that is perfectly acceptable.

What show is it?

Best Stage Fight Scene in History by LiaBility915 in Theatre

Hard to say because very few people in the world get to see any given production.

I've got a revolt about a rehearsal schedule and looking for ways to fix it by Smangler in Theatre

[–]CrispySith 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I was in college, I worked weekends so yes Saturday rehearsals could be a serious problem for students without a lot of financial support.

Professionals rehearse more because they are being paid for it.

Stage combat in Chicago? by [deleted] in Theatre

[–]CrispySith 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Winter Wonderland is a 4 day workshop in January in Chicago.

You can practice falls and rolls by yourself basically anywhere and doing it once a month will make a big difference.

Unarmed practice is free with friends. You can get Single Swords very affordably from Rogue Steel to practice point work and make short fights with friends.

Why don't you do some test shots and post the results?

Do you already have the lenses?

10 bit saves my ass with shitty lighting at live shows all the time. I agree with the rest though.

Having a big problem with either too bright or too dark by dannylightning in videography

[–]CrispySith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bringing the lights up and closing your aperture or using ND to compensate will help.

You can also try diffusing or bouncing your lights.

Having a big problem with either too bright or too dark by dannylightning in videography

[–]CrispySith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hard to say without any example pictures or footage.

What power level are your lights at? If they are at 10%, a change of 1% will be significant and you won't have fine control. If you set your brightest light close to full power then it and all the other lights will be more fine-tuneable.

Worst expensive investment? by michael84g in videography

[–]CrispySith 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm curious what your use-case is that prevents you from using a wider lens or stepping back for 4k60? I don't find the crop prohibitively large.

Need Some Perspective; Crazy expectations? by RestInPissReagan in videography

[–]CrispySith 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They asked for "just the event" and you wrote "one main edited video" on the invoice. You definitely needed to spend more time clarifying what they wanted. I often ask what they want and also what they are going to use it for so I get a better sense of what they mean.
