I don't know how old you are Normang, but I suspect you may be young enough to regret your "it's not human caused climate change, the government is the problem (certainly not me)" comments.

Check out this review.

Unfortunately Vollmann is wrong - his future readers won't even be able to eat insects . . .

I don't have to check out the mainstream media articles that are nothing but fiction..  If you haven't figured that out yet, I really feel sorry for you..

Plus there is nothing to regret..  If we could really actually alter the climate in any meaningful way, other than telling you how to run your life and return to the stone age, which is going to be far worse than any climate calamity.   Look at these saviors fo the world flying thousand of personal jets to Davos, there is an good example of saving the planet right?  Get real... get your head out of the sand for one minute and think of any action on any scale that will stop a tornado or hurricane or any other natural activity just isn't going to happen...

If I read it right, other than perhaps getting photo credit for said photo, you don't get any other compensation for giving Apple the rights to your photo for wide distribution.. Which seems a little cheap to me considering the seeming value of Apple showing one's photo for the sale of iPhones. If all one wants is the notoriety, I guess that's fine... still seems that the winners should get something other than that... though maybe I missed it;

If I recall, DXO has not been overly friendly to Apple in regards to Camera scores, so I take this with a grain of salt.

5G is going to have issues no matter what, its performance is tied to the frequencies used, so its going be possibly short range and will have impediments from nature, buildings and more for good coverage.
