Solid state tech using minerals and metals for interstellar travel.

Squishy meatbag for living and reproducing on a goldilocked planetoid.

We should just turn into comets for the purpose of travelling 🐌 slow but effective

what enriches lives:

1. solving world hunger
2. doing the taxes and other boring stuff
3. translation
4. replacing corrupt governments
5. cheaper living

what we use AI for instead:

1. making society, artists, already poor people poorer
2. making life more complicated thanks to increased joblessness
3. causing more polarisation and conflict
4. helping corrupt governments
5. more expensive living

why invent an AI that eats ice cream for you when instead, it should do the dishes and pass the butter?

iphones just do weird shit after a while so that you can’t go on without a restart. truly smart

Angry voting has never helped with anything. It would be like setting your house on fire because the neighbor’s music is too loud for your taste.

Voting is not what you think it is. I encourage you on re-evaluating that.

high exposure is used on almost any high-level landscape photography, even during daylight and not exclusively auroras. there is nothing wrong with squeezing down a couple of minutes into one picture for a better visualization

but that’s great. using long exposure is a skill that is highly regarded in the photographers community. early photo plates needed exposure for at least 7 minutes, requiring the subject to stand completely motionless. quite a challenge.

I am all with you on editing images and creating a “fake” reality on social platforms.

But this poses the question: how much has digital tech become part of our perception and is digitally enhancing a picture really much of a difference if it just helps us see more of the actual reality? I don’t think increasing exposure and contrast is changing reality, it just squeezes down what we cannot see so easily and makes it visible in that narrow slit that our human perception can actually process. We use digital editing nowadays that it has become part of our whole process of perceiving reality, so much so that the digital picture litterally replaces what we saw with our eyes - simply because digital photography has become an extension, much like glasses, shoes, cars are litterally a part of our body.

Imho as long as it doesn’t create pixels from scratch that weren’t there in the first place, it is still viable to polish a picture of the sky to make it more appealing. I mean no buttcheeks were enhanced here, no eyes replaced or lips turned i to a grotesque sausage mouth freakshow 😅
