True, but its contradictory in a way to our own experience. From its nature, I can only speak for myself. I can believe that everything outside of me, including humans, have no free will or sentience. No contradictions there. However, I cannot believe that I myself am not sentient - it just doesn’t make sense. I must be sentient. I dont hâve a good argument, its just that its so obviously true.

I think it is possible, logically at least, to have gods, free will and souls even if everything were physical matter, unless you define those terms specifically to be metaphysical but then its like a True Scotsman fallacy.

Physicalism might be the most viable, but that does not mean its viable enough. There are huge holes - we have no explanation for consciousness, sentience, free will, physics still doesn’t explain everything physical, and quantum mechanics is such a weird aberration of physical matter I am tempted to not call it that.

However, nothing beats the scientific method for truth finding at the moment. And, at the moment, the scientific method is content with only giving us physical results.

Me neither! Looks like I’m adding another service to my repertoire

I mean this whole ceasefire thing, especially at this point, is B.S PR. Its like if the Allies were asking The 3rd Reich to make sure they’re feeding their concentration camp populations well, before they kill them.

Wait till RFK hears that “mainstream” medicine is exploring psychedelic treatments as well - then he has ro disavow them to stay a contrarian.

He lost a sprint race to someone who was alive, and now he is on a crusade against all alive people.

My guess is that the US is threatening to cut away school funding, and so schools banned their student government from boycotting Israel.

Sadly, probably true. But my idea is also that making it only decidable by the Supreme Court means it will take a long, long time to revoke someone’s citizenship.

I think that revoking a citizen’s citizenship should only be decidable by the supreme court, and there needs to be a new trial for every single time the DOJ tries to revoke the citizenship of a citizen.

I think that because that means every triaé must be taken very seriously, and there cannot be summary revocations.

That’s called a subpeona, Mr. Trump.

Passive or Active Ventilation. The idea is to encourage air to pass through the home, which helps with removing heat from inside. Passive Ventilation would be opening windows, using wind catchers, etc. This depends on the design of your home, among other things that you probably don’t really have control over. Active ventilation is the same idea, but you use strategically placed fans to induce good airflow. For example, if you have two windows that are opposite to each other, you can place a fan at one window to intake air, and a fan at the other window as exhaust.

It’s stupid. Sure, one could argue that nationwide injunctions are overreach, but they are necessary to limit the otherwise unlimited executive order power. The real overreach that needs to be removed is the executive order power. Nationwide injunctions would not be as necessary if laws were actually created and voted on by congress.

Some do. I’m sure it is possible with terminal programs. In KDE, you do get authenticator pop-ups.

The graph is clearly labelled. The graph IS greatly exaggerating the level of change, on purpose. Otherwise, the graph would just be a flat horizontal line.

The graph isn’t the misleading part. It is the comment on top of the graph, which claims that the graph is evidence for what they are saying, which is incorrectly reading the graph: the US Dollar depreciated by around 11%, the graph says, not 20%. Plus, it does seem that they are using the scary appearance of the graph (OMG downward spiral!) to elicit fear.

I think prisons have to be reformed in almost every country, including my own (Canada). Prison should fill one or both of these roles:

1. Isolate criminals from society,
2. Limit freedom as a deterrent for crime. Generally agree that imprisoned people should have the opportunity to rehabilitate.

My point that i want to make is that the punishment should not exceed simply limiting freedom. Prison should protect prisoners from violence. Prison should allow prisoners to live fulfilling lives while there in prison. Prison rape should not be a fact of life in prison. Prison should not dehumanise prisoners. Prison should guard all rights of prisoners (apart from freedom of movement). Prisoners can’t be forced to do work or even follow a routine. Etc.

Unfortanutely, it seems things are so fucked up that not many have time to seriously fight for prisoner’s rights (including me).

I think the statistic of 3.5 is more of a symptom rather than the cause of a regime’s fall. For 3.5% to protest means that:

1. Anger has reached a high level in the general population (a lot lot higher than 3.5%),
2. The state of affairs is dire enough and hopeless enough that the trust that the system can improve on its own is very very low.

Probably other reasons.

It is accessible, but it is made for people with accessibility issues?

I assume the Saudi plant will be staffed with grossly underpaid labourers.

Oooh coffee!!
