Finally someone who gets it. That NIN album for this movie was just mediocre. They had no reason to be doing this score other than name recognition. The biggest reason Tron: Legacy was so damn successful in my eyes is because that Daft Punk album was a legitimately POWERFUL album. The way they made it feel like a crashing of digital and physical through the use of electronic music interlaced with orchestral/woodwind instruments felt like a leap for movie scores.
I mean… one of the great wonders of the world is literally a border wall with its own border patrol that was placed on it. Albeit a lot more complex than that, but that’s sort of the gist of it. It helped to keep “invaders” out and operated as an early warning system, but effectively was a border patrol.
I was just reading an article about how France’s new PM resigned after 14 hours because to some degree they’re all afraid of tackling the issue of no one being able to afford living anymore. There’s obviously more to it, but my British boss working in the states also told me about how the UK basically had zero options for normal people too. It’s rough everywhere, but we also shouldn’t let that stop us here in the US from trying to make progress on the issue at home.
I think too, and it’s something I’ve seen with my conservative family, is that here on the west coast we took stock of what was happening in Ukraine. I think for a lot of us here we’re learning how drones as tools of war can help make a small army mighty. I get the feeling that the middle America would want to fight with the weapons of WWII (think artillery and tanks) while we could be utilizing drone and electronic warfare. Either way, I don’t want it to come to that. I’d prefer the MAGA base come back to reality and start realizing they’re the ones that kept going further right and not the “Dems” going further left. It’s crazy how much my family has shifted in ideology over the last decade meanwhile I haven’t changed position, but somehow I’ve become the leftist.
They have that new North East or New England health pact thing! They’re working on stuff, but I think they’re rightfully taking stock of what areas they can afford to hit back on. California can basically take care of itself so we have a lot less to lose if the feds try to shut us down.
Maybe, but freedom is worth fighting for.
Also, remember that during the revolutionary war the French provided support. I’m sure there are lots of countries that, in a civil war, would join with California in providing defensive equipment and offensive weapons. We’re also 10% of the US population with a whole mountain range providing protection and desserts between us and the rest of the “mainland.” So logistically we’re covered very well if we really have to.
They can consider us whatever they want as long as we’re winners I don’t care.
It’s a beautiful thing to see my state leading the charge against MAGA. I’m sure a few other western states will join us when we inevitably break off.
Of note, I was just telling my wife while we were out for a drive last weekend how much I’ve seen our state flag appearing on peoples homes now. Before Trump people in California rarely if ever displayed the Cali flag, but now I see it everywhere, especially in neighborhoods that typically didn’t have them before.
Yes please! Let the union place its soldiers back into the confederate states. Just to make sure.
That’s why it’s bolted to a concrete slab from the inside.
It’s a smaller unit for my camera setup and it’s in a cooler area. When I open the safe up it’s basically the same temp. So I’m not worried about thermal performance. At least on that front. The camera system is just for home monitoring. The main components (what you mentioned being concerned about) stay hidden too behind the closet wall in my office and the wall is an interior wall so thermally they stay pretty smooth.
Since the other comments seem to be less than useful ideas on things you didn’t ask about…
I keep my NAS/Video server for my home cameras in my gun safe. Costco has a gun safe (really can be used for anything like documents too since it’s fire rated) that had power cable running to the inside. I used the same path to run a data cable and keep it all locked up in there with a monitor mounted on top and a UPS in the middle. My safe is close to my room with the idea being if someone wanted to break in I’d keep the footage. Not that anyone would, but like you seem to be asking I’m more concerned about the what if.
The rest of the switches/routers/WAP Controller is located in my home office closet inside of one of those on-Q boxes in the wall.
I know a lot of good Mormon people/friends and the ones I’m around are such wonderful people. My heart hurts for them and my thoughts are with their community during this time. How sad.
Someone reported they were in the building right after the first call and mentioned there were 4 canvasses covering people and the cops said it would grow. So I suspect this is an early count before they get to the burned section.
That counter argument only works if you plugged your ears every time they said they would have it fixed in the first week or that the tariffs would make it better quickly.
What’s fucking really stupid is that trump ruined our relationship with Canada because they were “bringing drugs” into our country and he just fucking pardons the legit guy doing it.
How the fuck can he always do the opposite of what’s right?
This sounds like a president legit declaring a civil war… right? Like… I’m not being crazy on this, right?
Look to Ukraine for some understanding of things. Yes back end support is important in war, but people being armed and willing to fight is more important.
As Leftist in the states continue to disarm they’ll continue to allow themselves to be treaded on. It’s our job to be armed and stay trained and prepared.
Pretty much everything prior to this partisan Supreme Court. This new court just says “fuck it” and does what it wants.
Me, a Californian:
We’re an incredibly powerful state and we won’t be bullied. We’ll just leave if it comes to it.
California has left the chat
I really don’t think they understand how much those of us in California aren’t happy about this political shit-show.
It was a joke… cause the start of the headline is “big balls” and the commenter ended with “he should be hung.” Which obviously there’s Linguistic belief around whether that should be “hanged” or not.
I figured if they wanted to keep it to a French house duo that they were going to look to Justice. They had been gaining a TON of hype over the last few years so I figured them, I agree Deadmau5, or I would have enjoyed even Skrillex working on it. Someone that was “digital” with the idea being a chance to hear what a computerized mini colony was listening to. I hope this doesn’t kill the Tron franchise entirely and instead makes them realize we want a digital mini world with the sounds and feel of being digital, not in a physical realm.
