Did they look at what KIND of leisure is involved in the computer "leisure" time? Did they just ask the participants how much time they spent on the computer? In this day of 24h/24 porn accessible online it stands to reason t

Now it's the other way around: you hack Linux onto Apple Silicon (Asahi Linux). For me buying a new Macbook Air or Pro is definitely made more palatable knowing I could turn it into a Ubuntu laptop down the line. And if the Asahi team

> Ancient warriors apparently didn’t get PTSD. And many who actively served in WWI and WWII didn't either. At the heart of trauma is helplessness. That is why it tends to cement in childhood when you are truly helpless. You don´t ha

Completely non scientific theory, although inspired by McGilchrist's "The Divided Brain" I'd wager that as we age the left hemisphere takes more and more of our awareness as we map the world internally and we tend to liv

I think Tailwind appeals to « back of the front end » devs which is a role that didn’t exist until 2010 or so? I think tailwind is valuable and as always middle way is the best approach but more difficult to structure and definitely not go

Of course it’s not illogical. That doesn’t mean it’s intuitive. IMHO a bunch of properties should be renamed in more intuitive groups like all the flex stuff should begin with `flex-`

That’s basically a cop out I think it’s called ? Some kind of cheap magic trick fooling the audience by pretending that if we haven’t explained xyz it’s only because of complexity. This kind of thinking is deeply entrenched in physicalism.

This used to be the iPod touch. iPhone 12 mini is my first smartphone late 2023. I have used iPads for ten years. Love how the iPad freed me from sitting at the PC. Now similarly I wonder if I’ll ever buy iPad again and just buy a good smar

Completely forgot it even existed. I remember I loved the app initially on iPad. Looked so nice. Then it started getting flooded with ads and turned to peepoo. The layout was awesome though. It was kinda like a RSS reader you could follow a

Yeah there is really no way to "do" grieving. I have been crying on and off late in the evening in recent years - but only with a few channels on YouTube I like. I think it is a body based process ultimately so reason doesn't

On my journey healing trauma I find that it is when I feel a deep sadness that I feel more alive. Gabor Maté confirms that grief is ultimately how we heal trauma. Sadness is an emotion that lets us move from the past. A way of saying "

These are basically like animated postcards, like you often see now on loading screens in videogames. A single picture has been animated. Still a long shot from actual video.

I agree in that YouTube is definitely worth a subscription. It has often been deplored that you can't customize the home page enough - but to be fair seeing how they have to please literally the entire world at once - they are doing pr

Maybe NVIDIA is aiming for servers and the like here, not the mainstream market. So the flawless support for Windows and drivers and their own GPUs for gamers etc is less of a concern? Fascinating developments though... we would all benefit

Well this shouldn't be surprising. This is a big issue with AI since it doesn't actually come up with any new thoughts or reasoning - but essentially "remixes" its pool of data - you have a system where everything become

Same but at least now the solo Premium option is more visible. Last year I wasn't even aware it was there. So for me it'll be 12 € for Premium single-user (but multiple channels/accounts via brand accounts is possible). I jus

YouTube Premium Lite at ~7 € was awesome for me. I am disappointed that they sent an email saying "your version of Premium Lite will be discontinued". They are forcefully ending my Lite sub next month. I will most likely upgrade t

That's exactly my sentiment. The main issue with this, it's like telling Apple how to do their job. Like , "you guys don't know how to build hardware and software that works really well together" It's well mean

Look into Donald Hoffmann. Space time is not fundamental.

by AltruisticGapHN 3y ago
Well some very, very smart people would seem to disagree. Cognitive psychologist Donald Hoffman says fundamental physics is consciousness, spacetime is doomed and everything we know about physics is wrong. https://www.youtube.com

Hah! I was thinking something along those lines - in light of the recent interest in UAPs. If NHI's do exist, one wonders if they could pull out such tricks as well in order to blend in and take over different biomes/planets.

And people tell me the universe is not intelligent. I think what scares us is that intelligence, like _real_ intelligence, is prior to thought and so it seems almost alien and incomprehensible to us. Yet these creatures clearly know what th
