Wait, what? (screenshot #1)
Do I read this correctly: Artists submit their work for an auction, and if they're selected and the painting sells, they get between 0% and 15% of the selling price.
Oh, they list "benefits" (screenshot #2). Let's see.
> All selected artists will be included in our robust promotional campaigns.
Oh, you'll use my art in an ad campaign for free. Awesome. I'm gonna be famous.
> Artists will receive bidder information from their sold artwork after the Auction.
Do we get their cell number and the name of the school attended by their children? I can't wait to stalk them.
> All artist applicants will have their work seen by local art-world luminaries who jury the work for inclusion consideration.
Sweet, a jury of local randos will get to see my painting.
> Your contribution as an Auction Artist directly supports ArtSpan’s programs, and has a positive impact on our local art community.
Sounds like an ineffective way for artists to give their money to other artists.
You know what, I'll skip this and focus on making art.

"Science is the belief in the ignorance of the experts" – Richard Feynman
"Science is the belief in the ignorance of the experts"
– Richard Feynman
Perhaps truest in the increasingly modern-day type of context (unknowing / not knowing at lot in real-time)...
█ "We don't know anything
(we have to trust / take paid people's word for it)
█ don't have much real access
█ Those that do are under a lot of pressure, financial stresses, strong-arming
█ We have old data
█ Systems and people in charge are not transparent
█ Security for not showing is usually an excuse or not worth the risk of being lied to
█ etc
I would include AI in the initial quote sentiment that ignorance is by the masses yes but also of those involved and line managers themselves who don't know really what's going on. (Business Science and Art of Deception)
------------
SIDE TOPIC:
█Fake scientific papers? Number of papers retracted by research journals topped 10,000 for the first time.
Believe it or not... *THIS* exploitation is more of what we need more of... in our own ballpark(s) to celebrate ourselves since they won't even pay for it much anyway...
@mjambon OK- Believe it or not *THIS* is exactly what we need more of...in our own ballpark(s)...
...the Fediverse..
...the areas of people in unpaid sector(s), the justice people etc... we need to do get it together a lot more...
More of something *ourselves* however we can and have access to... share and enable each other where alone we have near nothing... more within our -like-minded- selves...
in the similar-but-less-exploitative / much-more-mutual-friendly-exploitative ways to get money from the richer of us - because anyway there is no money anywhere else (or bad exchange and only bad circular economy) and we are all now political exiles (de-facto their politics pretty much them wanting alienate everyone or follow them).
Now your post might be a small representation of that but:
We are anyway facing starvation
When those outside care less for us and our arts AND politics that al comes with it and the see it... (especially for art I feel it's always been like that and 'too many artist and 'political people' starving right).
Tech is well abused so it's ok pay for that... for now... AI will replace them and leave fewer need like almost all machines have done or killed the human / art of doing... leaving it empty.
So we have not much choice and anyway should work from ourself (#DIY #HomeSchool style each other) else face worse positions...
Are you with me on that?
Technically / Financially there isn't much money given from banks down to the likes of well, the many peasants ... the banks choose the waterfalls as the main pipes and where it goes and what people and companies get green light. Anything good we do is neutral at best or mostly against them and they know it.
Anyway I hope you agree and I've been trying to 'promote' people more and more via #FreeSchool podcast pumping up others I/ we like to highlight them for 1min (literally 2mins in total)...
Those who maybe rely on job or commercial stuff too much probably should make a start with us / anyone here... as plug can be pulled literally anytime so better start now to be more together if you believe it...
Talk to me to advertise yourself on Fediverse...

Let me know what you think
and if not sure, slowly think about it - Talk to me about what you think ?
@rgb That is kinda cool... I got all my shit saved - let's go!
Key points to why people double down and maintain the same into the future... *even the same regrettable* history...
@undefined @strypey Key points to why people double down and maintain even the regrettable results of history into the future...
(just to check off you see what I mean and it's ok if you did - also for me as a list of key points you might add to...)
█ playing army games
█ filling time + solving boredom
█ resources (people had to live and as they grew have to kill more things)
█ monetary gain / wealth / greed
█ prestige / honour in battle / needing antagonists to justify their own existence / reasonings
█ commercial expansion
█ creativity (tech inventions for war)
█ Like to feel superior (not everyone regrets it)
So not just colonisation.
Human tendency and primitive solution (or many other things as names).
And also consider many might not regret it! At all and consider it normal!
Not sure what else you were expecting different - OP seems quite simple answer of conquest, exploiting people and geo-resources and human ignorant tendencies...
Can't those other people running the show, has to be us! 🗺️ 🌍 🌎 🌏
New Tube? https://newtube.app/
Videos maybe not found on Google YouTube !
█ People kick out local government because it was approving unwanted Chinese electrical battery factory again locals wishes!

█ Bluetooth MAC address signals emitted from Vaccinated people?
@strypey@mast@strypey@mastodon.nzoss.nz Yeah maybe they just went for it as lyrics as it's half good in some way of breaking something. An external person could have easily spot it or seen it as too risky.
I also realised they ARE managed / helped by same for Linkin Park guy(s) :) And I thought many more times it was more similar to LP...
Here's the interview they mention it in that I can recommend for some wise word in there and definitely seem politically committed...
https://invidious.fdn.fr/watch?v=ussiAu7ikQE
I'll update this post which part of this video I liked but all good at low res (since it's just for audio mostly)
Other notes:
Not sure it's more angry if the growling (or attempted growling) was one of the main judges of that. And perhaps LP having more softer sides makes it seem more but need to listen again.
It wasn't exactly what came across first time more than 'attempting' (depth way too low like if I was to try it!)
and not even understandable in the part I could hear most System and LP achieve in the yes soft, whiney and angry spectrums... I just couldn't hear it clearly like some genres where you have to wonder what they are talking about or look up lyrics and then you like them even more :) I generally;y go for what I can understand as words. (funny to say that but really some genre eh! ^^)
@freemo Kinda waste of the bench. I would have prioritised actually being able to site on it / being more welcoming...

Silence, often as violence and abuse...
Silence as violence and abuse:
Examples:
█ People who have power and chosen responsibility but misuse their position or don't fulfil it staying silent when they know of the wrong for waay too loong and don't help improve things also.
█ Those who represent / speak for others, but choose not to put themselves at risk and leave others waiting in vain.
█ People who avoiding answering the truth and further cover up things, not only by not being transparent (or even saying why not transparency) but even adding layers.
█ Self-denial or feeling of shame which becomes hidden violence, even after self fear, it becomes negligent over time and lying to themselves or others as abusive stakes only get higher. Negligence.
█ We all have power and I think we all abuse it when deliberately being non-players... like taking away each others voice in order for it not happen or effect us.
AI = Artificial Increase / pushing up prices... Arbitrary Increase for profit...
AI helps 'Artificially' increase prices and it's all to maximise profits for them more than us.
To force people to pay more using whatever Tech that will help them.
(Kind of like IBM helping track / count people in the genocide, though no proof my side and speculation probably that there could be such coldness of selling tech for whatever reason.)
I believe already this is arbitrary increase is already happening but with AI make doom quicker...
Basically as demand increases so does price but way deeper than that.
Will be worse IF domestic levels of people accept it into their homes and hand over their data and daily usage habits a bit like Facebook did / does... < = = all priceless survey type stuff for the AI suppliers allowed to see what you're using while you to use their 'services'.
AI = Another Invasion
or
AI = Arbitrary Increase
Arbitrary Increase is mankind's doom,..

█▄ike your local supermarket when you buy lots of the same item ( 🔔 this tells them it's too cheap' 🔔 )
█▄ike when you're booking your flight tickers for airplanes 🛩️
and ticket prices creep up on the sister sites strangely, because they know what you're looking for now and prices go up as time passes and you search more
(They see what you need and push prices up everywhere so you have no choice on all sites which is why you do better to pay quicker than 'shopping around')
█ Clever AI... working behind the screen (for the the company people) to make targetting easier... while people think it's faster for them (maybe for a quick second but not long-term).
█ Sentiments here of 'sale' when it's not really a sale. Also I worked in supermarket and shocking how things increase (and seeing all the old tickets for same products even a month back... much cheaper and "sale" only after pushing up prices!)

@gpowerf Just business in the end... We are expecting that more and more and realising everything was / is mostly just business. Although not doubt using creative people (and being used) for profit etc still mainly just a business. Closes it's door one day.
Does anyone know how to get rid of the 'Log in with Google' pop ups in firefox?
The default advice is to (cough) log into your google account and change a setting. Right. I don't have a damn google account and I'm not getting one just to turn off google?
I tried an addon 'stricly block popups' or similar name, but it was horribly broken - it also began by white-listing every site I hate - including google, bing, facebook, twit and others! Anyhow, even with those out of the way it was buggy junk.
There must be one that works without nuking everything (I log into jitsi with github - no other way except fb or goog).
Anyone?
@gemlog I've already cut down my diet and range of foods to almost absolute basics and making soups from everything just to keep flavoured water... can be done while keeping some existing stuff more as treats... I think probably we need to go to this level anyway like after the war was and things were special from abroad etc...
and great how you're already thinking / doing it yourself. Apples are amazing and many things you mention...
Frozen fruit and berries were in 600 gram bags. Now they are 400 grams, but the bags look the same. And the Weasels *also* raised the price 2 dollars and the shops have the nerve to call it a sale when it's *only* 1 dollar more and for the 1/3 smaller size!
Fine. I won't buy them any longer.
I will redouble my efforts to freeze plums, cherries and blackberries from the yard in season. I will buy clearance citrus and grapes and freeze them myself. They can pound sand up you know where.
Ditto for mushrooms. I normally just freeze a few Pines (matsutake) and eat the others I forage, but now I'm going to freeze morels, chanterelles and sweet tooths as well. King boletes even grow right in my yard.
More foraging. More leaning on friends hunting (I butcher). I'm nearly meatless anyhow.
I will push back!
We have sky high food inflation in canada and the supermarkets are having record profits, but they tell parliament it's just a coincidence.
It's about changing / opening our minds...
I give people time and I thnk that's the difference to others online who really don't have or give time and give up on people really easy... (don't mean to be competitive, no put-downs, just I more dedicate time to others and weave us together).
So you don't even have to read any of this because EVERYTHING needs time + communication and without that a lot is broken and even less human even if it's for good...
Just follow and put notifications on to TEST MY FEED.... the rest below is just over-info for most poeple.
Open Learning School or Freedom University...
------------------------------------
A lot you might be at length and depth, but if you're easy about it, you can take the best and even take me along to understand life with others!
To learn and do everything practically! (this is a practical living (and gets stuff done as much as we can).
Fan of Fediverse!
Quick Look - peace-loving work / services:
█ Mini-Podcast (few mins each, examples below)
█ Picture remixes / video remixes
█ Lessons without being too 'teacher' about it. Teacher has teeth for eliminating doubt.
█ Food for thought as gentle soul also.
█ Unique ideas - often impossible for professionals (they are burdened by financial repsonsibility and therefore associational risk in saying things). I'm more diverse and occasionally direct (with respect, though I don't shy away from reminding people).
█ Not too embarrassing to say "I don't know" but can still chase things.
█ More responsive than casual users usually because people think having 'job' is enough in life. I say it's not! And even faimily is of no use if it's only getting worse (in everything!).

I help people create audio / edit educational audio / podcast / music / visual short videos / transcript text
+ I like to add a bit humour while being quite strict in my own politics (opinions) but open / inviting for others to tell me what I should do if they can explain more than just a short comment (I don't mind it's healthy for me at least if you have logic and can stand yourself explaining).
FreeSchool is about Learning towards Freedom (which is about Uniting everyone slowly, even "1 by 1"... Easy with The Fediverse!
Not virtue signalling here only, but practise of EVERYTHING as we go. Judged by getting in contact (many have) and having courage to communicate (or seeking it from others is ok, EVERYONE needs a bit of courage or hand-holding to make big personal changes). Who else is there for example if family doesn't understand?
Learning and watching can be good and staying out of people's way, BUT better is doing something every day and helping each other with some tough decisions / lessons... and then being bold enough to do them. 1... 2... 3 that is all that's needed.
Let my posts do most of the talking.
Put me on notification (click bell that appears after follow ia accepted) and if it's not interesting switch off after and tick me off the list of potential people to follow daily!
Media version of my posts here... open link for later... good for visual scrolling version and judge me on that I don't mind...
https://qoto.org/@freeschool/media
I'm usually impressed with my media gallery as I work on posts a lot usually or hit the "Aha!" moments and capture it (other people may forget it for years, not me!).
Freedom is about *making it work together* better like using #Mastodon on the #Fediverse daily for better platforms with more #bestpractices and 'best' people to help us which I kind of collect here and
when it's #1 comment!
I am measurably better because I reply and stick to everything to the end(!)
No cancelling friendship suddenly without saying why or being moody!
Freedom is to Learn, Respect and Love eventually and ️to Unite!
Practically it's also like Tetris - add yourself to the puzzle and watch it all happen...
█▬▄▀ ╚ ╦ ╝╠╧
talk more on Mastodon and the Fediverse and puzzle it all out using better ways to less use the other bad commercial / extractive people...
L£$$ of the less caring people like the ggl's / ytb / gmail / mainstream communication points etc who are offering lots of space 'free' and it's not free of peace there.
We GIVE to real people (TIME NOT JUST MONEY).
There's no buy-in solution - we have to make it with selotape or whatever we have - it's not shameful to bring whatever you have.
FreeSchool is terminology put together from many good things from past (coined in 1950's/60's. I / we become it eventually through being.
It's a movement for Freedom via Learning it all (learning self included and less active stuff) and doing the learning *together* --> https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Freeschool.
I encourage you warmly to participate with me as a I have time and then spiral out naturally to others (we are part of humanity and so naturally a sort of evangelism or ecological pyramid of life as we choose to spread lesser suffering while accepting consuming is part of it).
Less-commercial in orientation (in everything) and happy to think / work for free.
Naturally you will hesitate if someone is sure of themself or ok standing on shoulders what we copy do the best from humbly but not too sterile either.
Based on just emotions ruins almost everything, which seems very common - very ungraceful - so don't disconnect... do it gracefully at least!
A "school" of thought is here you can interact / ask and make best together as free/low cost as possible.
Even a bad answer you can take best from (of course I won't know all your situation when I suggest something but I don't need to answer 100% - you also need to help me!).
Leave perfectionism, we are all imperfect humans! Let's do it... Choose something ANYTHING and keep the thoughts rolling together...!
