Trash ..some people will never change. Refocusing activism and politics

This is why I think some types of activism and politics are wrong.

And let's ignore politics today not being in the interest of the people anymore.

This was left by a couple spending late hours at the coast having some good times. Too lazy to get out of the car, take one step and throw it in the trash.

Now, I find these spots all over Spain, national Parc, kilometers away from any houses or not and I mean EVERYWHERE!

These people will always exist, especially among the young people that haven't become responsible yet..if they ever would..

Politics and activism often try to inform people, try to initiate behavioural change. But I don't believe in that (anymore for a holistic change in this specific matter). There will always be some assholes or young ones that haven't grown up yet.

What we need to focus on is not allowing companies to make non-bio-degradable packaging anymore, even less bio degreeable ones.

O yeah,as for the argument 'Someone will clean it up anyway" which is the most popular argument (excuse rather) for these kind of people, that means there is only one small moment in time when things are clean, namely right after the cleaner has come.

I didn't even mention that it's often the same people who complain about paying taxes. (Without them, no cleaners.)

Some of my friends who have lived in let's say "privileged" environments, who haven't really come into contact with less informed, more ignorant and responseless people (often in the economic lower classes), they would never believe this and they reach people with their activism. I've lived a lot among these kind of people. Sadly these friends don't realise the type of people they díd reach and won't easily believe there are people they will never ever reach. They have a biased idea about people. Well, this is for you, my friends.

So, please let's focus our efforts on packaging materials and forget people ever changing for the better any time soon.

My Journey Into Modern Video Compression

And Why I Ended Up Using Shutter Encoder, AV1 and opus After testing many tools to compress my album/personal videos from the last years, I use AV1 + Opus + MKV with Shutter Encoder as my daily workflow. It keeps things practical while giving modern compression, metadata preservation, filter preview, and predictable results. AV1, Constant Quality, VBR, and Variable Framerate (VFR) AV1 is already supported by most modern devices and will remain standard for a long time. Its main advantage: AV1 lets you decide how much quality to preserve while greatly reducing file size, so the loss becomes dependent on your preference of videos. AV1 also supports variable bitrate (VBR) , where the encoder automatically uses fewer bits on simple scenes and more on complex ones. Combined with constant-quality (CQ) mode , this lets you target a consistent visual quality across the file without worrying about a fixed bitrate. It works very well with variable framerate (VFR) , where f...

Can we stop fueling narcissists?

Hurt people hurt people By hurting narcissist one is hurting other innocent people indirectly (and most of the hurt the narcissist did is already boosted from other people taking revenge on them). Narcissists are the kind of people that turn hurt into hurting others and it doesn't have to be the people who hurt them, anybody around is good enough. Doesn't mean one's hurt from them is worth nothing and it doesn't mean we have to let them do it. What it means, is that it is fucking hard to resolve this problem, even going in the right direction is full of kindle and oil. Narcissists are one of the most difficult people to heal or to let them heal themselves... It's ironic really, most sociopaths KNOW they are hurting people but they don't care, while most narcissists don't realize it and they would care if they knew but they think they are perfect -in their protective superficial mind, or at least better than other people- and never hurt people or they think i...

Ego, alter, communis

I gave myself the exercise of inventing a new word for the right balance between egoism and altruism. Like the perfect balance between caring for yourself and others. Since ego is Latin for "I" and alter for "the other" I was going into the line of nosism (we) or omnisism (everyone) and then I bumped into the word communism (communis, shared, together). Of course immediately realizing that word already exist. Wait a minute, was that maybe the purpose of the first people inventing that word? Some research shows it goes much further back than Marx and it might as well have been! So, wait a minute, maybe through times that word has been changed and even raped, especially by the US? "Communism is eeeevil" Maybe including similar words and systems, like socialism (allies, companion) and many others? (One has to know that they have brainwashed almost their whole population and even big part of the rest of the world against any form of communism as if that is t...
