Reno is the best. I love Tig Notaro's dry-ass sarcasm.

The sea surface temperature is leaving the chart in c/climate

Yeah, that sums it up pretty well.

It's nothing to do with maritime fuels

The whole conversation is compelling but here's a direct refutation to your point by one of the coauthors of the 2022 Hansen research

We lost the fight for 1.5°C. Those banners are a waste

Carbon tax employers for miles commuted by employees, unless c-suite and board salaries are equal to the general population median salary for a 15 mile radius from the office location.

Not just another dot on the graph? There is some disquiet among people paying attention about just how extraordinary 2023 really was. in c/climate

You should see all the graphs Leon Simons has been posting lately. He has an episode coming up on the Nate Hagens podcast soon I think. Should be pretty sobering.

We'll try on +2.0 this summer, just to give it a whirl. That shipping fuel sulfur was masking a lot

I'd appreciate a link to the report about California if you can find it

What's the oldest piece of tech you still have running? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

[–] CodingAndCoffee@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago

It's been over a year since I unboxed it, but my Nintendo 64. Last game I played was Majora's Mask and it suffered a hard reset in the stone temple that made me box it back up.

My girl craves bananas and will circle the table when my son and I are having breakfast, demanding her share. She also likes pita chips.

My old boy (RIP) used to love avocado and seaweed snacks.

What are some physics-based arguments against hard determinism? (lemmy.world)

I don't believe free will is real. I'm not a deep physics person (and relatively bad at math), but with my undergrad understanding of chemistry, classical mechanics, and electromagnetism, it seems most rational that we are creatures entirely controlled by our environments and what we ingest and inhale.

I'm not deeply familiar with chaos theory, but at a high level understand it to be that there's just too many variables for us to model, with current technology, today. To me that screams "god of the gaps" fallacy and implies that eventually we WILL have sufficiently powerful systems to accurately model at that scale...and there goes chaos theory.

So I'm asking you guys, fellow Lemmings, what are some arguments to causality / hard determinism, that are rooted entirely in physics and mechanics, that would give any credit to the idea that free will is real?

Please leave philosophical and religious arguments at the door.

A good chunk of this was borrowed from another thread by @mershed_perderders@sh.itjust.works at https://sh.itjust.works/post/70273 but I've also added:

clickable comment headers
big friendly up/down vote buttons for posts
rearranged comment up/down vote buttons and More button to shift things to be more visually pleasing (to me anyway)

similar to the kbin userscript I made this colorizes posts and comments by origin. kbin users/posts are dark blue, Beehaw (and any other restrictive moderation sites in the future) are red, local is left unchanged.

YSK that kbin.social is now federating, adding hundreds of communities and ~26k more users content (lemmy.world)

Because they don't get listed by browse.feddit.de you'll want to browse https://kbin.social/magazines to browse "magazines", which is what they call communities

e.g. !RedditMigration@kbin.social

or directly, https://kbin.social/m/RedditMigration

Why YSK: Federation literally just synched up thanks to the tireless efforts by @ernest@kbin.social over the past few days.
