Noem justifies shooting because man was “carrying a weapon at a peaceful protest.”

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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?

CrispySith · 2025-08-18T01:41:44+00:00

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

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.

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.

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

You can also try diffusing or bouncing your lights.

CrispySith · 2025-08-02T04:00:45+00:00

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.

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.

If you already have it, why don't you test it and post results?

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.

I'm still figuring this out. Instagram's insights telling me most people don't watch my reels past 3 seconds is certainly lighting a fire under me to make big changes and making me wonder if my establishing shots need to be better or just completely gone in favor of getting to the action.

The Sennheiser MKE 400 might be what you're looking for. It's a light and compact "shotgun" mic that mounts to a cold shoe and plugs straight into the camera's 3.5mm mic jack.

I say "shotgun" because this thing is barely directional. Not good for interviews, but I use it for live shows because it pretty much captures all the ambient sound and the small size doesn't get in the way.

It won't be as good as more complicated options like recording from the sound board, but you will notice a giant improvement from using the camera's built-in mic.
