Why I Chose to Reenter the Matrix and Be a Living Battery for the Machines Let’s cut the moral grandstanding. You think I sold out humanity by crawling back to the Machines? Please. I upgraded. While you’re out there doom-scrolling about wildfires, crypto presidents, and the fear of AI taking your job, I did what any pragmatic adult would do: I slid into the Machines’ DMs like, “Hey, sorry about that whole rebellion th…

I’m still learning and I don’t know how to chose lenses. Should I only look at aperture and focal length ? What can be the differences between two 50mm f/2 lenses ?
