  • No shame or issue in being fast. Just make an effort into making sure all parties are satisfied. It's not that complicated. We have hands, mouths and can buy tools.

  • Bernie Sanders says that if AI makes us so productive, we should get a 4-day work week

  • Around 3 minutes in and a couple minutes in from there they continue talking about Gaza and starving children https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4mXBfF6MlgQ

    Edit: Aaaah, I understand. I haven't heard Bernie sanders call it genocide, only criticise it.

  • The countryside can get pretty lonely. Once you retire there is no more socialising with coworkers. So there is only the family, friends and the community. Moving a way from family, friends and a place with lots of places to build new friendships (hobbies etc) could get lonely.

  • I think someone just tried to break into my apartment?

  • Probably someone drunk

  • That's a work of art

  • It's also super cool that they had a productivity institute before. I wonder what we could have achieved with something like that today.

    There are so many ways we could make society more efficient for everyone. Companies mostly focus on smaller issues for consumers, but society could have a more overarching look, and not focus on profits, but on quality of life and efficiency.

  • Another thing, I remember when I used to live in a house with a cat and a lot of rodents. Our traps killed a couple a week and our cat killed probably not far from a thousand rodents and birds. We could have protected our house more from animals, and we could have had the cat indoors. Somehow cats killing animals is socially accepted, the same goes for rodents in your house.

  • Exactly this, I am not trying to say that it is not allowed to have the opinion that this was distasteful. I just find it interesting how hard people judge this person. There are infinitely amounts of cognitive dissonance we all live with every day. It's not really to judge people for eating meat, it's more to point our that from a logical standpoint this person actually did not do something much more unethical. Kinda like the thing with the female politician who shot her dog. Which I personally feel is insane and a terrible thing to do, but at the same time dogs are kinda like pigs, and we kill them all the time just because we prefer pig meat over lentils, beans, rice etc.

  • He should not have. But we kill animals all the time simply for eating meat, because we think that tastes a bit better. We don't need to inflict suffering on animals for years, we can abstain from meat. How are we more moral? Just because we outsource the killing? I so not condone his actions, just point out that we are not better.

  • Luv Me Chips, 'ate Seagulls...

    Jump

  • Of course he should not have done this. What I am saying is that eating meat when we clearly don't need to is also unnecessary killing. So he killed an animal for no good reason, and we kinda do the same. We have more ethical foods available for us, but we like the taste of meat, and don't care enough about their suffering. Except for those that abstain from meat.

  • It's not about morals that the seagulls can understand. It is not about teaching something. He acted like a moron and completely disproportionately. However it's not that much unethical than killing for meat, when we don't need to eat meat.

  • Luv Me Chips, 'ate Seagulls...

    Jump

  • I know what you mean, it's disproportionate as hell. I am just saying that we aren't much better morally than him. Unless we abstain from meat.

  • Luv Me Chips, 'ate Seagulls...

  • What he did was wrong, a bit because of the animal and a lot because of the spectators. It did not suffer, it was quick. It does however feel a bit like cognitive dissonance to strongly disapprove of his actions, while we systematically without any good reason eat animals and have them in small confined areas for optimal meat production per sqm. Vegans and vegetarians however, they can judge him all they want 😉 I am not one of them

  • Upcoming MMO 'BitCraft Online' will be open source

    Jump

  • Wow, looks fantastic. It being open source as well is really exciting

  • Teleportation problem

    Jump

  • Oh, I am very aware of it being like death. My point is that we were never alive at all. We have no consciousness because of determinism, we follow a path that cannot be changed. That's why teleportation is not a problem from a deterministic atheist standpoint.

    However I do fully acknowledge that I can not live like that. I live as if I have free will, because that is the easiest and most comfortable way to live. Beside nature / nurture arguments of course, I don't dismiss those.

  • What is a movie that "looks like" it would suck, but actually is well written and acted and a good time?

    Jump

  • You should check out the movie Hardcore Henry 😉

  • Teleportation problem

    Jump

  • Well the person being teleported would cease to exist. If life is deterministic then there is no consciousness, just a predetermined path. So my argument is basically that you don't exist anyways, and by that extension teleportation is not a problem, because the copy is not alive either.

  • Teleportation problem

    Jump

  • What is death? If everything is deterministic, then there is no consciousness. If there is no consciousness, then no death and a copy is pretty much exactly the same
