Wesley discusses the concept of human dignity.

Two items in the news lately have captured Wesley's attention.

Once a culture accepts the fundamental premise of euthanasia consciousness, there is no way to limit doctor-administered death to those who are already at the end of their lives.

If you think it is respectable to consider babies, whether born or unborn, to be an inferior stage of human life, you can easily come to think that they have few rights that fully developed persons are bound to respect.

Wesley discusses "transhumanism"—what is quickly becoming the world's newest religion, offering adherents the kind of hope once within the exclusive province of faith and without the humbling concept of an omnipotent God to whom one owes prayer and thanksgiving.

Even if we came about through purely materialistic and Darwinian means, it is self-evident that something happened to make us so remarkably distinct from every other known life form.

Should animals have the same rights of "personhood" as humans?

What do euthanasia enthusiasts really want? To eliminate suffering of any kind by eliminating the sufferer.

Is the "right to die" more important than religious liberty?

Why is our culture obsessed with death, and how can remembrance of death help us to overcome it?

Should a human life be ended just so we can harvest their organs for another person's use? It might be closer than you think!

Is human life exceptional when compared to the animal kingdom? Some scientists do not think so!

What is the best way to defend the exceptional nature of human beings?

Do "doctors of death" need any specialized training to diagnosis and prescribe lethal drugs to patients who want to die?

Should animals and humans have the same rights? How best should we care for animals in a humane way without confusing the value of the two?

Who should decide what is best for a child, the parents or medical professionals and the state?

Wesley introduces the Transhumanists and then explains what is wrong with their desire to increase human intelligence.

To what extent should efforts be made to work for the healing of those with significant illnesses, like polio, rather than letting them die with assistance?

LG Display’s new free-form screen technology can expand from 12 to 18 inches, with a resolution of 100ppi. The display also uses a micro-LED light source smaller than 40 micrometers, so it can apparently be stretched over 10,000 times. While this probably isn’t your next smartphone, we could see the tech in clothing, car panels and more.

LG Display has pushed the boundaries of screen tech for a while, revealing folding screens before foldable phones appeared, roll-up TVS before roll-up TVs went on sale and transparent displays before they appeared in fancy stores, theme parks and elsewhere. So expect to see this Bop-it of displays somewhere, eventually.

Netflix’s ad tier has attracted more than 70 million subscribers

However, many have probably downgraded from a premium tier.

Netflix is crowing that its ad-supported tier now boasts 70 million global users. Amy Reinhard, president of advertising at Netflix, says the company continues “to see steady progress across all countries’ member bases.” But there isn’t any information about existing customers. It’s very possible a lot of people downgraded from a premium tier to an ad-supported tier.

Fujifilm is developing a 102MP medium format cinema camera

With a new sensor 1.7 times larger than full frame.

Fujifilm is developing a medium-format, 102-megapixel cinema camera, the company said in a surprise announcement. Due next year, the GFX Eterna will carry a boxy, modular design reminiscent of Sony’s FX6. The new camera will have a medium format GFX 102-megapixel (MP) CMOS II HS sensor, the same one used on the GFX100 II. That sensor is 43.8mm x 32.9 mm in size — that’s 1.7 times larger than the full-frame sensor on the FX.

The benefits will be extra dynamic range, potentially high resolution and a very shallow depth of field, which should enable cinematic shots with the right lens. Having said that, Fujifilm currently has no GFX glass designed specifically for film production. It’s working on it, though.
