Good luck with my data! I didn’t get my vaccinations till after I was diagnosed with autism.

I saw some other pictures of it being assembled and the lights were wrapped until the fabric was on. It’s also relatively rare for moving heads to be IP rated because they move, and in order to maintain IP rating on something that moves it requires significantly more maintenance and with that, higher cost. The lights that are on the outside are IP rated for instance, as they didn’t have the fabric to protect them. But from prior experience that means those lights cost about 3 times as much to rent.
The chains are protected by a coating of oil, the oil is in a reservoir inside the motor so if the chains aren’t getting ran on a regular basis they aren’t getting a fresh coat of oil. As soon as any sort of weathering happens, the chains become exposed and will start rusting. You can get stainless steel chains that won’t rust, but the price on those is so astronomical, that it’s special order only, and only used for permanent installs. The only way this has stainless steel chains is if it was designed as a permanent install from the beginning.
I work in events. That is a very temporary structure. The frame is aluminum trussing, and although it would hold up fairly well, all of the fabric will start bleaching within 3-4 weeks, the metal chains holding everything up will start rusting pretty quickly being exposed to the elements. The lights themselves aren’t IP rated and are relying on the fabric for protection so those will fail pretty quickly. Finally the stage itself has a wood underlayment that will rot within a single season if left outside.
Lastly it’s all rented and the rental company will continue to charge the client until it’s returned.
I have spare the dying prepared, we’re good.
I work at a smaller company, everyone has to carry their weight, and the owner pays about double the industry average. He always says I would rather have shit equipment and good techs, than good equipment and shit techs. Obviously we want both, but if push comes to shove, you pay for the right people, because that’s harder to replace than a machine.
Comma 3x it’s a module that adds sensors and compute to turn your car into a level 2 self driving vehicle.
Glinet travel router. I always have both wifi and hardline with me wherever I go, whether or not I have either.
Sabrent thunderbolt dock. It has NVME drives inside of it so I can have my laptop be mobile then come home and have all my games ready to go.
Dockcase dongle. Most dongles suck, this does 100 watt pass through charging, gigabit, 4k 120hz and 20gb transfers on the ports.
They don’t, but they give a shit about their image that is being tarnished.
The mouse won’t be happy about this…
Obviously Luna is up there, but my personal favorite is Pluto’s moon Charon. It’s so large it turned Pluto into a binary dwarf planetary system, the only binary system in our solar system. It also shares an atmosphere with Pluto.
We will make allowances for female chefs or chefs who can’t produce jizz in the moment, by allowing them to simply spit into the dish.
Technically I have multiple TV’s only because I wanted multiple large high resolution screens for my computer. I don’t actually use them as TV’s.
Do they not make you file permits anymore for shining lights into the sky?
I know when I was doing festivals we had to file permits for all of our light shows noting the exact time it would start and end. They would put a TFR in place surrounding our festival until it was over so planes and helicopters wouldn’t get blinded by the lights.
