Title of Post: Address Corruption
https://synergeticdesign.substack.com/p/addressing-corruption
CURRENCY ITSELF IS DEVALUING THE PEOPLE; their work, their morality and lives...
Currency devalues the people's work to get them chained and constantly running on the treadmill to sty alive- People may not realise or even guess such a plot against them for control... but guess what people are realising it now!! Hooray!
Realising the whole setup of banks hand-in-hand with governments everywhere in the world is the same template! (and maybe one is more devaluing the others but all are devaluing their own people and then other people too if they can!)
Now #Bitcoin (even with any negative thoughts about it) IS helping people in stopping devaluation and enabling less transaction fee costs (imagine whole countries lifting 4%-20% off their costs with outside world!)...
At least those in the poorest (which is also us but not realising it yet) already have hit bottom by trading with gov's, banks, credit card fees, % transaction costs (2.5% which maybe you don't pay but the restaurant owner does!
8% in countries like El Salvador!
Ouch...)
So watch this (480p recommended - sorry no Audio download but I might add it here)
https://bitcointv.com/w/odqquxBQLTBvr5KVsJg8zi
In general just watch from 3mins-12mins and then go to 22mins explaining costs and uses from different angles ( the reality, not just what your eyes see because credit cards make it seem like 'it's working' but people are shooting themselves in the foot!)
At 11 mins or before it's more about countries with devalued currency which is why I'm posting this and those countries already understand how it's working as IT IS A REALLY PROBLEM and is working great for them (tested from ned which we the west will also have to try similar else be cornered by governments telling us what we should do or they will freeze our bank accounts like in Australia RIGHT now!!!).
This is not a fan post. This is a mix of dispelling fiat currency, basic life balances and real problems with freedom of speech (imagine going to protest and then after bank card not working). Real dirty $hit.
VIDEO TIP - Do Not Use 1080p for this vid IT'S A MASSIVE 6Gb for 2hrs (so save the earth and don't use that)
I really recommend first from 3MINS (before is just a static screen) to 22mins with a saner resolution and stream of 480p...
Currency IS ITSELF DEVALUING THE PEOPLE; their work, their morality and lives...
In the spirit of NOT downloading or even playing partially the 6gb or 2gb file (1080p or 480p) I've included the audio clip here 15mins referring to what I was referring to before)
This audio first 15mins about 7mb rounded up! And gives most of what I meant in comment post before this about:
"Currency IS ITSELF DEVALUING THE PEOPLE; their work, their morality and lives..."
END OF POST - THE REST BELOW IS FOR DEVELOPERS AND CREATORS MOSTLY BUT GOOD TO UNDERSTAND

FILESIZE COMPLAINT FOR EVERYONE - can ignore if you don't create / upload online

#PEERTUBE AND IN GENERAL #VIDEO IS KILLING HUMANITY
AND DIGGING ITSELF THE BIGGEST FUCKING HOLE (I.E. DRAINING UP AND DOWN STREAMS) WITH 1080P MASSIVE VIDEO GIGABYTES
(+ BACKUPS, MOVING, UP/DOWN STREAMS, )
JUST OVER-QUALITY AS DEFAULT AS DISPOSABLE DATA.... oh cruel world lol
No wonder people upgrade their lines it's all just bad practice... saying things are 'too slow' when it's ALL just too big! Bad practices...
At least on the channel they had 480p version (which is still multiplying copies but a bit better for those that don't have 1080p crazy bandwidth and don't have to justify to flatmates complaining that people are abusing the line in downloading massive stream packets AND no offering alternatives sizes sometimes)
This audio is first 15mins - about 7mb rounded up! Even the audio stream was available for download at 320kbps originally it would have been hundreds or megabytes for human voice (64kb or 5 times less or even CD quality 128kb still almost 4 times more)
Audio also not downloadable or put as option (people could offer the audio at 64Kb/s (not 320kb/s and achieve about 150mb tops...)
but anyway... now you have all the complaints
Video / Peertube if anyone cares
Bookmark / favourite or even adjust on you own channels or sites / considering for future...
record at 720p max.
Otherwise we're just doubling and exponentially using / misusing for convenience that is unjustified abuse for just some faces on screen. Stored originals if you must some other way and certainly not MAX as the default in the Peertube interface (interface could remember last setting or or middle or something ecological lol on nature and us in it - self-ban 1080p for mostly static talks at 6gb)!

Childhood memories at the Arcades in the 90's (playing Street Fighter) by Alex Valle (long-time master)
Alex is one of those seen playing in old videos and beginning competitions but actually I liked how upfront he was or his talking style. I did the audio, though visually explaining it was actual good (usually waste of bandwidth but audio is main thing)
It's a good segment relating to human interaction. The times when we were young, looking back from game release 30years later (playing in his teens) when games mattered most and what really didn't really matter was who we played with! (unless they beat us savagely!)
The game was more the focus and I think this is partially what is has lost it's life... or could do with much more of in life somehow (whatever we like, like the Street Fighter and nostalgia / history of new types or games and gameplay was the main thing and made a whole scene and excitement around it)
Audio edit (Video link below also)
+ Notes (from 29.50-44.08)
https://yt.artemislena.eu/watch?v=mOYNHUE91Y0&t=29m50s
Video Notes (the rest is generally ok only if you're a fan but these are specific time points of Human Interaction and story from an original player is best even for me):
NOTES START:
He's a bit famous so that helps interaction but later mentions just talking between players at the beginning of matches also
Childhood memories follow and parts that were good...
1st thought: "What is this game?"
Meeting lots of strangers (at 7/11 in this case but for everyone it was similar but a different place to play)
Talking to people sometimes before playing... Having to interact.. meet acquaintances
A daily thing sometimes, for young people especially back then... a kind of social networking!
Didn't matter what they looked like, or their age, or where their came from, if you like the same thing as I do, we just had some fun.
Didn't even have to play, could watch (like we do YouTube!)
Crowd was attraction in itself, young people like 'us'
Machines in a lot of places; corner shops, food outlet, post offices with back room; anywhere almost with space and good money maker
Making small trips or walking to places was 'a thing' when you were young... for the sweets, to kill time... play arcade, meet friends etc...
Interactions kept things going,
Also reading the room and knowing when people didn't want to be approached.
(I personally remember hard to take losing and even older person pressing my buttons borderline bullied!)
Atmosphere mostly respect and skill (each place had it's own atmosphere, sometimes there was music or it was in basement type place, smoking was allowed back then, other arcades like Daytona like a fun zone or just someone hoarding arcades with many Space Invaders, Pacman, or airplane shooting games originally)
The 'highscore' / 1 player type games were first and then suddenly it was like a brand new phenomenon to play other players and beat 'em ups, control characters with an art of fighting WOW O_O
Breaking the ice using the game and discovering of it... being excited to play generally helps
getting a read on your opponent,
getting information by talking :)
people not have played for years and coming back into being interested or just talking about nostalgia / childhood history
Street Fighter seems to have some history even more than some Comic Con stuff
Hearing about people's story how they started. kinda this video itself
You never know when you'll cross paths again or where you'll see them around, so being friendly can helped say hi outside of gaming, maybe even making time to meet and play again the next day...
Maybe being introduced to other peoples/friends watching, you introducing your friend to others
SUMMARY:
So that's the similar story of childhood I think many had and puts all the points we can relate top.
I liked the "human interaction" part early on (for game and friends)
This segment ends around 43.51 (wasn't much more about Human Interaction and as I'm not being into the newer 3D looking games I can't recommend it being useful but do keep the game+people in mind... the newer games totally changed the 2D game almost but I'm sure new people playing arcade might have similar experience also).
I wish for more interaction like this... and even think about online gaming (for this game specifically because of the scene from back then)... wonder if it's on PC???????

EVERYTHING IS A SCAM!
OK JUST WANTED TO TL;DR SAY IT!
Everything evolved as 1 big scam / profit-orientated conquest / taxation scheme / war model etc...
Truth is mostly that (and even deliberately mixed)
Just didn't want to hide it and say it is possible from beginning (of whenever) and even more so now, it's just one big tangent of debt and hard to go back the branch we're on (my question 'how to end a Ponzi scheme' is difficult... or how to end the debt-based societies and what to to move it to FROM this point with a smoother curve and will of quite ignorant people ?'...
It's a hard one to swallow and nobody wants to talk about it.
Just have to admit the above ingredients all life 'exists' kinda = what we have now. And changing our patterns and habits is probably quite hard / unwanted.
As the curve goes down (as usual for each civilisation and relative to the wars) so our luxuries buys us a small window of die-hard move to do something... you got only 1 or 2 short here (even in years not much more).
AUDIO = Jamiroquai - Scam

They're not really coming for me. They're coming for you.
I'm just in the way,

I've got to create my way out...@AmiW
Video loops are one way...
possibly to be part of something bigger...? from scratch and using existing video perhaps... Ideas welcome as I have lots... but prefer less-commercial work / personally made stuff... happy to hear 'offer' (no money pls)
Treating others better (not easy if you're in a low position)
This often this is why people act the way they do as they are hurt or usually insecure
Someone training their dog the other day told me their dog bark because it's insecure of itself.
So while there is difficulty abd hard to hear the advice...
"Don't let pain cause you to treat other people poorly"
...it's about finding a better way and getting your way - basically about communicating that and exploring middle grounds.
Just my advice. (And yes I do wonder why this is important to me and probably I have nothing 'better' to do than try this since I don't know how to change the people who stop other people from evolving.)
Science fun for kids and adults
I kinda wish these were your videos instead of other people's I'll never talk to...

Video [Killing energy] vs. Audio [small filesize]
A bit of a comparison of static videos or any video that isn't needed/useful or the people or visual don't move much at all.
Even meetings / conferences / conversations I'd include and go for audio only.
Example: YouTube video with static image / cover art for conversation...
https://inv.riverside.rocks/watch?v=H2I8cBpsUnc&t=1
(if you want to play don't play 857mb video, download and lay audio as it's only 67mb!)
Total media on YouTube needed = many Gb's [3/4/5?]
or let's work it out a bit
67mb Audio ~64kps [500k per minute]
+ 257mb /Video 360p
+ 857mb /MP4 Video 720p
+ 1500mb /MP4 Video 1080p
+ smaller 144p, 240p videos [xxx mbs)
+ video only files for each of above in MP4 AND WEBM!!!
+ example 118MB /WEBM + MP4 similar copy
+ audio only /multiple copies
+ example 140kbps
x2 (in MP4 AND WEBM audio only form)
Strangely this one didn't have 1080p BUT does have VIDEO ONLY lol so another 1.5gb on top just not the audio+video version which would be more!...
So just for 2 people talking.. this is the kind of #ecology madness FOR 1 VIDEO that is a real killer for ecology (and water shortages as data centres 'spring' up everywhere, encouraging more land grabs too and fortification of data)
POINTS OF CONTRAST
- you might think people might notice these things, ok me yes... but people easily don't notice also or just stick it on without verification of 'what the fuck is it doing to my bandwidth' and it's default to play at max res!
or even medium I don't use... 360p is for the way (if not audio as 1st gear!)
So it's fault of you and youtube perhaps... (haven't see where you can set global quality to lowest on YouTube, Invidious, PeerTube, Odysee etc!
Max 1080p in peertube for example is terrible even for normal videos, even for those that catch it still the processing of computer is stopping things being smooth or unbloated... unneeded watching for a few seconds or minutes and then "why is it so slow" and then "oh it's trying to download movie size DVD's for 1 youtube video" hmm good business that - WE NEED MORE DATA CENTRES !!
So if you watching inside small box or switching tabs while working - use audio or lower res - FANKS
Either way a big drain is happening and well we could help that.
SUGGESTIONS for service AND users
- the default settings [YouTube responsible]
- currently settings [User responsible]
both could be permanent / global / cookie / low first etc
- Multiple versions always end up bad
1080p + 720p + 360p + video only copies (MP4 + WEBM) + audio versions ... just crazy
all the time up and down streams.. every second of the day
x how users ?
x how videos ? !!!!!
gigabytes multiplied by x trillions of views and users
Other ways to say it:
-Bloat vs. Compact
-Static Video Image vs Only Audio stream
Will revisit this and perhaps merge, thanks

Hi everyone, wanted to humanise phase of humanity! So Jitsi audio or video chat is instant!.. let's talk individually or as a group aytime for me... I'm freeeeeeeeeee!
TEXT is not the greatest filter for human communication so I suggest occasionally back to audio chat (not even video) with someone you like the profile of
(or just me in this case!)
Now you may not always want human voice or video but contact mainly via text is almost a modern killer if you were to keep all those misunderstood emails and how often people didn't respond / ignored you because they 'felt' awkward or were not sure about you behind text.
If fact you might not even remember those emails unresponded and the time you put in to send it but sometimes it's like 20emails (reading/writing/askign again) for something 10mins would have sorted...
So it's the same for Mastodon perhaps but at least we know it was delivered here hoorah and see the profiles / interesting things to talk about!)
For most humans that can't do text or have done too much text-based filters (like in their job) they want to talk so this is a instant way I recommend and open source / safest way I know while being accessible by only browser (no reg / no signup or Big company)
The live talk is what we prefer even if we lost practise and direct adjustments are better instead of SMS to girlfriend type of signals which are interpreted based on mood perhaps and not being personal or polite as in person is more in person.
So try Jitsi for instant chat
https://meet.jit.si/chat123 <--- or change to any chatroom name
I offer you a bit of audio conversation with someone totally different perspective...
Do get in contact
... even if contact is by text to start with
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I'm interested in:
-Peer-to-peer
-Mutual interests...
-The world
- Giving back to humanity / community in the smaller and larger senses...
Just send me a message anytime...

How Big Tech Finds Your Exact Location -- Even When You're Hiding It
https://yewtu.be/watch?v=CS5o2AFpEJ0
Video attached is edited from 13.41mins.
**************************
Summary / paraphrased
**************************
All people are victims when using a Google Android phone
Identifiers all track you and can triangulate position (google knows where each one of it's phones are) by these methods and cross-referencing them:
APPS with privileges (big pain) + IMEI of phone + IP address + MAC address of WIFI / Network adapter + Location (EXIF in pics, GPS data etc) + Browser fingerprints + profile cookies (1 login in for all?) + nearby WIFI + Google ID / AppleID / CAPTCHAS to check you...
A lot of stuff a Linux OS will solve AND some habits it might train you out of.
So for example VPN is good but being logged into accounts or sharing just pings your location, or while watching videos might reveal things or just many things together reveal you
including Cross device tracking (not just 1 device - things connect and pair together things)
MAINLY or good start is de-googling you existing phone because Google Login or Apples AppleID or whatever are the head of snake for identifying you and making things provable (the rest, even if you click is less provable 100% but they are slowly getting here to be able to do things later using 100% evidence).
2FA needs a google app <--- hence even de-googled phone means you need to install app even if you have a Linux phone.
That is why they push for 2FA so badly.
[edited: I got a comment that 2FA does NOT need a google app but it's becoming pushed more which means they will get their way if they want it. There are allegedly plenty of self-hosted options or are included with password managers... so I don't know maybe it's not a matter of time and can be a minor point.
**********************
ANY MORE ADVICE ?
**********************
If I'm wrong please let me know.
If you have a list of your own experience with de-google phone give review.
Help others do it and De-google?

How to use a crazy-looking website?
or a website with too much info?
A simple tutorial...
If the website is giving too much data, lots of choice, etc ---> then it is for YOU also to think:
----> "Right too much info but what is it I want
-----> What do I like and can pick and choose
----> what are my own current projects and goals - can I match anything?
----> Can I do some tests / samples? Can I search keywords?
Find a way. It's in your power also.
***Even in the worst website****
(like freeschool.0id.org)
should be able to find your own direction or relativity and then get what you want and even learn more than you thought (like a book with a terrible cover!).
If you're not serious then you won't really get a serious answer.
Give it some time, keep the open a bit long and think about it.
I admit websites and interfaces vary and can be like being forced in something different but it can be like a personality (not the persons always as it's just technology) but with basic text and pictures words there you caan 'crack the code!' and they don't change that much considering most are similar just with different front end or colour scheme...
Overall I guess it's better to think why am I here, can I try a bit and then also contact them?
Also let someone guide you through their own 'house' or see it as history and even a bit of a relic to adventure
We can't assume standard lives or technology always! But the basic text and pictures are reassuringly there.
I write this because people seem to give up INSTANTLY on seeing lots of information (like what a website should do but too much... as well as summaries and super-short feel-good stuff)
If you met Einstein like I did (in my dreams) then you might see a messy desk as something actually positive and refreshing so you can expect smoething more interesting or even fireworks for thoughts instead of 'sterile mainstream' commercial version lacking any personality and playing it too safe.
Eintsein even used to keep a messy desk! (and not saying you can't change things once in a while).
For example on freeschool.0id.org/ you can also change view, like:
- list all posts
- category view
- random!
- picture slideshow view
- last 5 in each category
Freedom. All things towards #Freedom.
#Notes #Quotes from great #Books #Videos #Talks #Websites (gems from all around the world towards freedom)
#FreeSchool hashtag = more
Communication pioneer (only because people don't reakky do it at any deep depth)
TOGETHER & MORE OFTEN DIRECTLY (who else is going to do it?).
#FreeSchool hashtag shows examples what this is about... and can check anytime.
Overall: Moving From Shorter to Deeper intelligence and more Caring thoughts...
( More below if you're able )
#DIY Care (because nobody else is going to as best as you do for those around) - #Caring IS our main #Politics / #Politics and "System" (not a system of cheating each other but caring and what Capitalism is cutting out - this is what we need to put back in and teach to those willing).
#Degrowth / PostGrowth
#WellbeingEconomy #DoughnutEconomics
#CaringEconomy / #CareEconomy / #Partnerism
"Free School" is a term for a movement born from the 1960's / 70's using educational living & learning practice towards #Caring & #DIY with all others (all at the same time - not an after-thought or specialism in 1 field or person who is a #compartmentalised person ignoring others in other fields). Caring to involves more things, increasingly aiming towards everything...
Posts are 1-line #Notes and #Quotes that links all other things (it's all relative).
Long comments use CW to shorten post vertically and add a 'show more' button to reveal more text if you want it. Long posts might seem bad but it's giving chance to more connection and understanding.
All things towards #Freedom (life moving from Shorter to Deeper thought).
Freedom doesn't come from short-depth lifestyles / short lines of text / ignoring / #inaction. Not less communication between lovers of similar things. MORE!)
#FreeSchool = Learning Together 🔁
#FreeSchool = Working Together 🔁 (eventually + I do Free work for Freedom.
#FreeSchool = Co-Operating & #DIY Solutions 🔁

#FreeSchool ➡ Increment Talking + Peacefully solve everything.
TLDR - Inaction = Fascism
Trust comes from "slowly but surely"... Doesn't have to be all-in, but peace doesn't come from one-way short messaging on 'social' Mastodon either - collecting memes and cats only is limited!
Remember we need develop better humans as well as 'develop' code on computers etc.
☮ Peace needs more... even to save all types of cats!
Get in touch - I'm someone that cares for everything because it's all human-related...
Human #chats welcome - I using #Jitsi audio chat which uses JUST browser (ANY PLATFORM + 2minutes to enter !)
(i.e. no-install / no account / no google / instant / privacy-respecting / safe-enough, etc!) Really the best out there - any platform / device! Instant audio chat !
Just ask for a link and prepare a few topics!
#AltText used (when I remember).
FREE WORK - I do free audio and video editing (anything considered - just ask).
Again - Creating Trust needs a bit of trust given "slowly but surely"... not all-in... being relaxed about it... but has to be more - 'working' like a 2nd job towards peace because your job isn't going to do it / it's now allow by State to get there! War increases prices etc ☮
So do "peace" as a side-job like it was your real job in the world, parallel to the Capitalism (Trap) you (we) were born into. We have to accept that and fight out of that and not be comfortable in it.
Heart and Soul all the way.
