Kind of a cutesy medium if true

Big if true

“Slowly, I told myself that evolution failed itself by giving a bit more individual selfishness over community/species survival.”

There are a lot of great answers here already, but I would like to put forth the anticapitalist position that the quote above is likely false. Humans can work together, we have developed systems of cooperation that can deter selfishness from destroying a community. This is possible (and despite decades of propaghanda…popular!) What is stopping it is the greed for wealth and power of the 1% at the expense of everyone else and the planet. The masses of people are constantly trying to stop this, and mostly fail. But cracks in their power do open occasionally, and you just have to do what you can until a Crack is available for you to help widen. I think it’s possible to win, but not through personal lifestyle changes and voting alone. Only through activism and protest is it possible. Most humans keep trying to solve this, and that gives me hope.

I’m thinking of switching to Tidal. I’ve had YouTube music for awhile and I like it, but I just learned they fired a huge chunk of their staff after they unionized and that pissed me off. Anybody know how their rock and jazz selection is, especially with smaller lesser known artists?

Pretty frustrating interview, I didn’t grasp what his actual issues ate with AI. I guess I’ll look for other articles somewhere else

Counter measures against warlordism would be crucial for effective anarchism for sure!

I think the easiest approach to anarchism is searching for Chomsky talking about it.

This is correct. If society becomes a place where a few people are running everything by force it is not anarchy, even if technically there are no written down laws. A lot of anarchist philosophy is about how to achieve and maintain anarchy without it devolving back into hierarchical power structures. There are a lot of different ideas that have spawned their own subgenre of anarchy. I personally think some checks and balances combination of unions and community councils is the most likely to succeed. This is anarcho-syndicalism.

A couple things to try for low light situations.

1). A tripod. This will help the background and anything static stay sharp. And it may help with something moving, as you are only dealing with the blur its movement is creating vs the blur of its movement + the blur of your camera movement not being locked down.

2. Try to take your photo as a moving target changes direction. As the fish (or whatever) turns around, it will be still for a split secind. You have a better chance at a sharp image when that happens.

3. Try to do a slower shutter speed and track with the fish. Keep the fish in frame and move the camera along with it as you take the picture. With luck you can get a sharp fish with a blurred background.

I don’t think thats true. Housing prices are high everywhere, I have friends and family in the midwest their shit is out of control too. New York and San Fran are the most extreme for sure but costs of renting or buying have like tripled everywhere over the last decade

They’ll just go secretive and underground like in that Simpsons episode
