Baraka (1992) is a #documentary with no narration, story, or dialog, and yet this is one of the most intense, beautiful and moving films I've ever seen. The #cinematography of this film is absolutely stunning, music and editing is also great. I found out that its also the first #film ever to be restored and scanned at 8K resolution. Anyway, I'm glad I found this gem.
P.S. I know there is sequel to this documentary called Samsara, I'll be watching that next.
Hi I've also enjoyed this one...watched it a couple of years ago so I might re-watch it again. I have also watched Samsara...hope you enjoy it too. I'm glad I came upon your toot. If you enjoy these type of docus, you might want to try Life In A Day. I think you'll like it too. 😊
@jahabof1794 Oh thanks for sharing, I'll try watching Life In A Day too. This is the first time I've seen a documentary like this one, without any narration & voice-over, and I absolutely loved it.
Love it. Has extremely vivid pictures and a wide range of feelings. And as a German person I struggled with the second half of it. If you have seen it, you know. If not, I recommend it! But beware: there are very touching szenes in it. Good as well as the opposite.
@SteveTux I've seen someone describe this film as poetry in motion and that's exactly what I felt like, so unique and different from the kind of movies we're used to.
I agree. And I was surprised to read in your post about the second part. Will definitely try to watch it.
Poetry can also sometimes be disturbing, which happend to me during some parts of the movie. Wasn't prepared to see part of my countries bad sides to put together with tis beautiful and arrangements in the beginning. But I guess if you don't know what you are seeing it isn't that surprising.
@SteveTux I made the mistake of watching it with subtitles disabled so I didn't know what exactly it was showing, but still it was very heartbreaking to watch some of it, I totally understand how that can be disturbing for some. I watched with my dad and he had a similar experience, it moves you emotionally.
well disabled subtitles give you a distraction free experience of pictures and sounds. That is as well magic. Saw the movie already three times in my life. Always magical.
Its funny how people are blaming AI instead of pointing out the widespread systemic issues that are the real root of our problems. Worried about kids using AI for cheating? Maybe schools should just be about learning new things and not about judging and ranking students based on arbitrary tests & scores. Worried about people loosing jobs? Maybe this wouldn't be so much of an issue if we cared for all human beings instead of normalizing wage slavery. An intelligent species would know that reducing manual labor is a sign of progress and should be celebrated & encouraged. Tools like AI should help people get things done more quickly and efficiently instead of working against them in this mindless profit-driven competition. Its not AI that's the problem here, its this BS trade based society that sees you as a tool and not a human being. As long as you work like a well oiled tool you're able to live an ok life, but as soon as you're not able to

Its funny how people are blaming AI instead of pointing out the widespread systemic issues that are the real root of our problems. Worried about kids using AI for cheating? Maybe schools should just be about learning new things and not about judging and ranking students based on arbitrary tests & scores. Worried about people loosing jobs? Maybe this wouldn't be so much of an issue if we cared for all human beings instead of normalizing wage slavery. An intelligent species would know that reducing manual labor is a sign of progress and should be celebrated & encouraged. Tools like AI should help people get things done more quickly and efficiently instead of working against them in this mindless profit-driven competition. Its not AI that's the problem here, its this BS trade based society that sees you as a tool and not a human being. As long as you work like a well oiled tool you're able to live an ok life, but as soon as you're not able to or if a better tool comes along (like AI in this case) then your survival is under threat.
Now its important to note that these AI tools and the ones making them are also influenced & driven by this trade based society. That is why almost all of these programs are proprietary software, and I'm sure they'll try to milk their users one way or another by introducing little trades here and there. They might put ads on their website to trade your attention, or put their service behind a paywall/subscription to trade your currency, or collect data about you to trade your info. So #TradeRuinsEverything, even useful tools like AI are used to make a profit for the rich in our society.

Have you ever wondered how computers work? Like how the processor, ROM and RAM communicate with each other to produce an output that gets displayed on a screen? I've found this series of videos on YouTube where the guy builds a basic computer with a classic 6502 microprocessor and goes through how everything works, and by the end he successfully prints the message "Hello, world!" on an LCD interface. Considering how complex this topic is, his explanation was really good.

In my humble opinion this has always been the one thing that's missing in #Linux. Found a video on the web that you wanna play with your video player or share to your social media? Then you'll have to manually copy paste the links. On #Android I can just use the share function, I wish I could do the same on Linux.
There are some incredibly useful desktop portals but not every single portal proposal makes it's way into the project and the sharing portal is a great examp...
I just wanted to share this #podcast episode from vox.com/unexplainable. It reveals perhaps one of the most common and widespread misconceptions about #science & #nature. Its actually very interesting to see people engage in such discourse, because it shows us that science is still very much evolving, and that we've barely scratched the surface in understanding this complex world around us.

Some of these everyday things in our life are #designed in extremely clever ways that simply #learning how it works can blow your mind. This #video is an example of that, and it #explains all of the #mechanisms involved in such a simple and intuitive way that anyone could understand it. Definitely one of the best #explainer #videos I've seen.

I agree with the comments below this video, there is no need to use the word stable and cause confusion among each other. Arch is a rolling release distro while Debian is a static release distro, and both are pretty reliable enough for daily usage. Alpha software is usually rolling and unreliable.
When we're using the word stable in the context of software especially Linux distros we need to be clear about what we're referring to, do we mean stable exe...
