Humans are all fucking stupid

Blender DumbassNobody knows everything. The top scientists don't know everything. The science is incomplete. The GΓΆdel's incompleteness theorems show that even something as basic as math ( which we rely on to understand the rest of the world ) is incomplete. And probably logically dubious as well. We can't know everything.
The Police-Force Paradox
![[thumbnail]](/pictures/thumbs/police_paradox.png)
Blender DumbassIn 2011, French writer and director MaΓ―wenn Le Besco went to the police station in Paris in order to try to get some information about how the police works. The research she ended up gathering, ended up portrayed in her 2011 film Polisse about which I already wrote a review. But one thing about this movie suck with me. And if the intention of the film was to shine light on the police-work, this means that to some extend that thing that stuck with me shows a certain, very depressing truth about the world that I don't know how to process quite yet.
Part 2: Developing a Way to do Action Scenes Without Money
![[thumbnail]](/pictures/thumbs/vfx_honda_2.png)
Blender DumbassSo a real cinema movie project is being developed, and as explained in my previous article about it I don't have the money to shoot a real chase scene. Instead I gonna use CGI as much as possible, to cut down the costs ( but not my sanity ).
Developing a Way to do Action Scenes Without Money
![[thumbnail]](/pictures/thumbs/vfx_honda.png)
Blender DumbassI'm in the middle of developing a movie in which there is a car chase. You know me I can't live without a car chase. But this time I'm trying to make the movie properly. By "infiltrating the movie industry" as some people suggested to call it. Which means ( since I live in Israel ) I need to write something that is possible to do in Israel. Getting $40 million to shoot a first feature film in Israel is not something that I can expect to happen. So instead I need to come up with something else.
Chat Control Violates More Kids than Encrypted CSAM

Blender DumbassWe all know that when politicians tell us to think of the children it is always a bullshit manipulation technique. But I rarely see people actually break down the issue well when it comes to EU's Chat Control.
Why are we blind to 99% of Child Abuse?
![[thumbnail]](/pictures/thumbs/otherAbuse.png)
Blender DumbassChild Abuse in on my mind right now. I have written a screenplay for a feature film that I'm already in early talks to produce. The bad guy in the movie is a child-rapist / child-killer. His presence alone justifies the anger of the heroes and creates the tension in the film. Yet I don't think I can make a movie that is a shlocky exploitation film. The subject matter is a bit too strong for something that careless.
The Goodhart's Law of Child Abuse

Blender DumbassWhen a measure becomes a target, it ceases to be a good measure.
How AI, ICE and Elon Musk Manipulate People Into Supporting Evil?
![[thumbnail]](/pictures/thumbs/ICE_AI_Musk.png)
Blender DumbassElon Musk is now infamous for showing a Nazi-Salute when Donald Trump became the president for the second time. Yet, this is the same Elon Musk, who's cars were disliked by the same people who have a hard on Trump. People who like to burn gasoline. For them an electric-car company is an epitome of wokeness. It was very funny to see, then, Donald Trump making an ad-read to promote those cars, before realizing what he had done and deciding suddenly to hate on poor Musk. Was Musk playing a part of a Nazi? Was the Nazi-Salute a genius marketing move, to try to make the conservative public of the United States consider buying a car they so disliked? Or was it just a funny set of coincidences?
Is Blender's DOGWALK Even Libre?
![[thumbnail]](/pictures/thumbs/dogwalk.png)
Blender DumbassIt seems like the project is meant to show that they understand the frustrations of people who didn't understand where the Game Engine was gone. And in the same time, to develop / polish Blender in regards to game development.
The question stands though: Is DOGWALK even Libre?
Help Me Collect Financial Statistics Of The Libre Community

Blender DumbassIf you are running a Libre project and / or know somebody who does. And that Libre project has a way for donations to come in. Please make the data about your financials accessible in a machine readable way.
Did PewDiePie Just Crack the Code for How to Present Libre Software?
![[thumbnail]](/pictures/thumbs/pewds_and_rms.png)
Blender DumbassOn June 26th ( two days ago ) PewDiePie ( who I believe needs no introduction ) released another video in his liberation saga. This time titled I'm DONE with Google. In this video he goes over his process of getting "de-google-efied", or as he clarifies toward the end of the video, his process of getting rid of his reliance on Big Tech.
A Libre Replacement Software for People Stuck at War in Israel

Blender DumbassI developed a Libre replacement for the proprietary missile attack warnings app by Χ€ΧΧ§ΧΧ ΧΧ’ΧΧ¨Χ£, so I will not lose my freedom by trying to keep myself alive in the conflict with Iran.
The Complexity of Selling Libre Software and Freedom in General
![[thumbnail]](/pictures/thumbs/rms_too_extreme.png)
Blender DumbassWe are Selling Freedom Wrong! And I don't think this problem only applies to Libre Software or the Fediverse. It think this problem is applicable broader. I think the sense of "the end of the world" that a lot of people are feeling right now, comes exactly from this problem. From the bad enshitified software we are forced to use, to the various wars around the globe, to the unsettling uprising of complete political instability. All of that is blamable on the same problem: We are Selling Freedom Wrong!.
Clarifying Costs of Running the Fediverse with Jerry from Infosec.Exchange
![[thumbnail]](/pictures/thumbs/jerry_interview.png)
Blender DumbassI decided since I don't understand how all of this works, I will just simply ask Jerry personally about all of this data and technical details, so that people will no longer be confused about all of this.
Includes an exclusive interview with Jerry.
We have to solve the money problem!
![[thumbnail]](/pictures/thumbs/money_problem.png)
Blender DumbassOn the Fireside Fedi interview with Jerry ( the admin of Infosec.Exchange Mastodon instance ) a scary truth was suddenly revealed ( on 34:11 ): Just to keep the instance up and running he needs to spend up to $5000 a month, pretty much out of his pocket. Donations to the instance barely cover any of that. And if he will ask people to pay to use it, they will, rightfully so, switch to a different instance.
I Wish I Simply Had Diabetes
![[thumbnail]](/pictures/thumbs/vertigo.png)
Blender DumbassWhen a person breaks a leg, everybody runs to help. When a person breaks a brain, everybody runs away in fear.
For the last few months or so I was getting worse and worse. From the symptoms of vertigo and headaches to insane levels of fatigue. I thought that I'm for sure sick with something very bad.
