You sound like you may be lacking agency. Agency is simply being aware that one can make decisions for themselves based on their own metrics. . "if you're someone who benefits from this arrangement, to be able to tell yourself th

I agree with what you are saying. My point is mostly that artist occupy a strange spot in our culture. They are the only “trade” that I know of that can fabricate items that have a value beyond their utility. Making a living at art is a big

Also scarcity isn’t what it once was. The biggest internal social problems were often scarcity induced.

Fortunately my DNS entry starts in 1996 and would be covered by the first clause. BigCos claims would need to predate 1996 for my domain to be seized.

The agents sound like old school hackers that would just explore what access they could gain. Creating a file for other hackers and themselves. The fact that there were 3 events for 3 major players does make it seem co-ordinated.

I can’t get over how the process is exactly what a hacker hive does. Communicate leaving notes in some random file.

The number of artists that succeed is irrelevant to my comment. No one needs to tell me about the life of an Artist or the Art world. My dad was a fine art painter, my mom was a potter, another uncle is a kinetic sculptor, one uncle made pa

It is suffering and I'm not sure it is worth it. I didn't notice the suffering until the later stage of life.

I found that that stock market is the way to scale income. One can't make big money with just their hands unless they are an artist.

I would say only a few do it and they are self-selected. The ones that do it have a sense of agency that is lacking in the ones that dont do it. Some people never notice their own agency they believe it comes from outside them.

That is the point. They used to hold the user experience in higher regard than their need for a helipad.

Apple's days of simplicity out of the box are over. The simplicity is still in there somewhere. Through a combination of turning off a lot of features in settings and using a few defaults shell command it can be made simple. Apple got

I would say I'm about 90% satisfied. Yesterday I just did a bunch of batch graphic conversations by opening multiple images in Preview. Selecting all the images in the sidebar. I could then batch process manual using preview. It was an

I was a sysadmin through the 90's and my distaste for Microsoft was that it wasn't plug and play and they would distribute software on 35 floppy disks instead of a CD-ROM. Finally their business practice. If Microsoft was unlucky,

I have been collecting Autonetics artifacts off ebay for decades. What I find interesting about this time period is that Autonetics made 3 different efforts for digital inertial guidance. The first version used vacuum tubes and was never co
