This conversation has been swirling since forever, and the answer is that both came first

It really comes down to the fact that we have arbitrary scientific conventions, and we have to slot everything into its little hole

It is impossible to make the determination, outside of the human perspective, which came first

I would like to correct the gut-brain connection. 95% of the time our gut tells our brain that it wants something, and it’s trying to say it wants water, but the brain hears that the gut is hungry.

As a Canadian, I can declaratively say that our reputation for being polite is bogus. As a whole, we are a shitty, privileged, nasty group of people. Our country is built on colonialism and genocide, so you can only imagine what a shit pot this is.

People love to make exaggerated statements on the internet for attention but I can say very truly that the spirit of the people changed me inside and it helped start my sobriety journey

I really don’t know what you’re looking for here. I mean what do you want us to say It’s a speed??

I guess if I can add something meaningful, it’s so fast that no human can ever respond to an unexpected situation or hazard in time and you’re dead. Don’t ever go that speed for any reason.

I was given a smart watch yesterday

I wore it for 20 minutes and immediately gave it to a crack addict

All the fking doodads that exist nowadays are just trash - I literally cannot comprehend why anybody wants them in their life! They do not really seem to add anything, they’re just a meaningless trifling distraction and another shiny toy that ends up in the trash heap, as far as I can see

I truly feel sorry for anybody that is in the not sweet spot I guess the sour spot of not being able to select the vehicle of their choice due to economic factors, and being forced to buy one of these used pieces of shit that is replete with garbage technology that does not serve the user in any meaningful way. Oh my God, I’ve never one from that generation and I never will, and I consider myself blessed. Just operating a microwave nowadays is torture, give me a fucking chunky button and let me press the fucking thing.

You don’t have a point. You’re in a psychological spin out because you’re wrong. Blocked

As I explained to you, you are living in bias, not fact. And I was right not to spoon feed it to you, because evidently facts are irrelevant to you and you’ve shown that by talking out your ass. You know nothing on the subject whereas I’ve 10 years experience and work directly in social services. I don’t waste time on dingbats like you. There’s another fact for ya.

That can be done but the voltage that it receives is variable so that’s causing damage. Which ripples down the chain, it’s not avoidable no matter how much you put in capacitors and diodes

It’s really just an unavoidable aspect of electricity, people think of it as magic fairies floating through wires but really it’s like ropes pulling on things, and just like mechanical things, ripples and vibrations fk things up!

If you’re really want to get down to it, electricity is destroying things by its very flow. But you want to reduce the unwanted harmonics as much as possible and wireless is not the way to go

That’s not a counterpoint, you’re just describing that you had a battery that was okay for 4 years

It doesn’t say anything really I’m sorry friend

I know people love these and I’m not going to go and break anyone’s balls but the reality is, because it is inductive charging you will never get clean voltage

Anything electronic, it really doesn’t matter what it is, is going to suffer basically the equivalent of “mechanical damage” when powered/charged with unstable current

An inductive charging is always going to be highly unstable, there’s no way around that

Anybody who tries to tell you different just doesn’t understand that this is a real thing, and yeah, really nobody should ever use wireless charging unless they’re willing to accept continual device (battery) damage

As an electronics hobbyist and frugal person … you can just literally add CA to any model number and you’ll get the Canadian version. That’s just one thing I’m aware of but I’m sure there’s other ways and I’d love to know

Oh damn I remember those keyboards, I remember my friend absolutely pounding on one like Chick Corea on a meth rage… Didn’t even affect it

You are wasting your time because you’re correct, the way to make the world a better place to get up and do something.

You don’t need to go to that level of complication.

Two sensors in combination, one that detects current heat input one that detects absorbed heat. These modules would be placed about the outer walls.

Then calculate how much heat is going to radiate into the building the rest of the day.

And it can compensate.

We don’t need to be more than a fraction of a degree off and a system like that would be amply accurate.

No, what is happening is a lot of hot wind is being expelled and the word quantum computing is being thrown around.

There is nothing actually concrete that has been realized, or will be realized.

It’s a huge fucking investment sham.

A wonderful idea that should have been pursued, immediately revealed to be garbage, it’s never going anywhere.

Hey I mean it’s fun to make snappy comments, but it’s a joke. There is no merit to the underlying principles in quantum mechanics, it’s a giant shell game, and it’s all about investments and the PhD machine. It’s all phony, take it from somebody who did 30 years of game development and comp sci. It’s fucking nonsense.

Yes and I’m fucking exhausted by it to be honest.

I work in social services, I do street outreach, housing, peer mentorship, sobriety mentorship, life coaching, youth mentorship…

One of the biggest principles is that we must see past the apparent outward identity which is only skin deep so to speak

And yet the moment you take everybody for who they are, without delivering or shoe horning in the identity, it is demanded that you immediately recognize them based on their outward appearances only

It is literally people demanding that you continually evaluate people on race and culture and language and everything along those lines, while simultaneously demanding that you live virtuously and conduct yourself in a spirit of total equality

People are fucking morons. And the more people talk about virtue, the less virtuous they are.

I go to bus shelters every single fucking night for the last 5 years and drop off water and food and clothes, and I’ve never said a mother fucking word to anybody that I do it…

Yet the very same people that preach in the boardrooms and the conferences and the year-end sessions, are never seen at any protests, they’re never seen volunteering, they are never seen out doing good work. They are always seen accepting award, standing in front of news cameras, proclaiming virtues on social media, and literally doing absolutely nothing to change the world in a positive way

So yeah I’m sick to death of black and white

I never want to hear about the color of anybody’s skin tone again for the rest of my life unless it is specifically germane and those opportunities will be one in 10 trillion
