Lotta BIG QWERTY's on Lemmy

edit: I thought you were using 'QWERTY' as a pejorative term for 'know-it-all'. Turns out you actually mean the keyboard.

Bookpilled. If you're into science fiction books, he's a great YouTuber to check out.

edit: Also, he does extra videos on his Patreon. But if you don't like him try Outlaw Bookseller and Media Death Cult.

The average voter pays zero attention to politics but has very strong opinions about what a politician has or hasn't done.

This only proves that the ideal relationship is one without the compilations of sex. Checkmate natalists.

I really hate text articles that end up being a podcast. Feels like a bait and switch.

Great ideas. Too bad our politicians don't listen to us.

Took forever to find out, but, "Daisy" on backroomcasting.

Well I suppose it depends on your views of consciousness. Some would argue that our consciousness is nothing more than an emergent phenomenon grounded on the electrical impulses of our neurons. Personally, I'm convinced that the phenomenon need not be physical. It should be possible, with enough computing power, to model the same interactions. But I admit that if you reject this possibility, then the simulation hypothesis loses credence.

Yes, this is the idea. Although, as another noted, you can argue back and forth on whether Bostrom's argument holds.

I understand that modern outer layers are more functional. A leather jacket, for example, can be dressed up or down so as to be worn in a variety of situations. It is also better at keeping you warm.

However, I think capes/cloaks are more aesthetically pleasing garments. It also feels good to have the fabric flowing around you as you walk. But what do you think?
