"Can the TV producers tap into the video feed from the drones? If so, that could make for some amazing and exciting footage. I see a lot of potential with this"
"Hi Rain, thanks for the reply. I'll just close the book on this one by saying that I absolutely disagree on just about every point, but I respect that you tried to clarify."
"I think you hit the nail on the head when you say that the article could have been written more objectively. But the fact is, it wasn't. At all. What could have been an interesting read and discussion was instead injected with the venom of political opinion and snark.As to people vying for positions of power needing to be called out on what they say - I agree. But two points I need to make are:1 - Is this the appropriate venue to do that?2 - If so, then what about the endless list of stupidity uttered by any number of other candidates and politicians? Even the current POTUS and VP have said some really dumb things, but not a mention anywhere on Core77... which, frankly, is the way I think it should be."
"Aramis - I see your point, but the overview of the global production process is sandwiched between blatant political snarks and jabs (including the obviously loaded headline).I simply want Core77 to stay above the kind of partisan/political sniping that we are no doubt about to be beaten over the head with just about everywhere else."
"Can we not use Core77 as platform for political discussion? As we head into election season, we in the US are all going to be bombarded with it from just about every conceivable angle angle and there are many other venues to sound off on your thoughts ands observations about XYZ candidate or party.Core77 should be a refuge from all that mess - to discuss DESIGN and the practice of it.You don't like Donald Trump? Fair enough. Cant say I love him either. But this isn't the place to tell everyone about it."
"Excellent post! Good to see some exposure to the little known and rarely celebrated offshoots of ID that some of us live and breathe. POGs are truly mind-numbing and soul-crushing tasks, but there are a select few out there who love it and are hardwired in just the right way to dive into this field and make a solid career out of it.I can only say that while Ive had my run-ins with working on POGs, I am so ever thankful that it is not a regular occurrence for me!"
