Scientific claims, of course not. “Scientific” claims, however, should not be that surprising.

Driving may be a necessity while drinking is rarely an obligation. Also driving may cause instant harm while, drinking may cause a very much delayed harm. So, by knowing that not driving or not drinking are the safest choice I can choose to

This is your take on being rich and not at all related to what the article was about, what parent said and the point I was trying to make.

by keymon-o 4y ago
You took the question out of the context. Parent expressed that rich people would be happier by enjoying their wealth and changing and controlling what they want and how they enjoy it. That's the same thing 'poor' people can

Same. I had plenty of so-called life worthy experiences, and nothing would make recommend that lifestyle to someone. To be happy or at least satisfied and content, it takes a lot of introspection and creativity on how to pursue what you rea

> There is a “mindfulness” angle. Instead of taking it always for granted, pay attention and make time enjoy your stuff. Being satisfied with what you have is what “poor” people (people who can’t have everything) do in order to be happy.

Would you apply that opinion to music as well? Yes, it is shorter and more practical type of media, but people tend to consume it until it "wears off". Other media consumption is much more demanding, complex and immersive and it i

Even tech people became like the old school folks complaining about charging for fixing a computer or the ol' "$500 for a website!?". People get spoiled with so many free services and content provider around them and never co

Time for an anecdote. I have recently witnessed a medium large company with a paranoid CEO, obsessed with business security, owning physical servers only for internal needs, hosting every single needed service, hoarding all the data. And ju

Good point, I've answered assuming different context.

Not the guy you were replying to. Why are we assuming any of the impact would be a drive to live and should be of importance to anyone? Isn't the reason why we live just steering through the unknown and finding what will happen next. S

If we persume that life is completely based on the physical world, then yes consciousness is based on memory and you can somehow replicate the same consciousness which will continue with different experiences. But if consciousness is based

I agree. The idea of relating unconsciousness with death is by making the assumption that physical world is what is driving life and consciousness. But since you are the conscious one just perceiving the physical world, physical world reall

by keymon-o 4y ago
Well, no matter how rational you are, it is still your conscious self that is perceiving the physical world and is just trying to makes sense of it. What happens to "you" after the death is really not related to understanding phys

Yes, I did. Intentionally. If you forbid consumer GPUs for both sides, limit or cripple the gaming tech development in a sense it offers lower variety of products, you are going to see a lower demand for gaming in general. Thus, “saving the

I think I get what you are saying, but I think it’s less of a social problem, and more of a resource scarcity problem that humanity isn’t used to solving. As much as people are aware of resources being limited on our planet, rarely anybody

I am probably not that informed on who does what artificially and intentionally, but I still don’t see a point in justifying gaming usage over crypto usage. As far as destroying the planet argument goes, gamers could equally be limited to u

Woah there. I don’t like the crypto culture and mindset as the next guy, but there are plenty of other options to preventing use case you presented. If systems aren’t closed enough already… And as far as the gaming goes, I cannot see how pl

My point was about how well can a society work when there is mutual trust between leadership and followers, not about solving a problem efficiently. Although I did go off the subject with the anecdote. What is your take on handling the Covi

Pretty much this. I know plenty of people who successfully stopped during quarantine (including me), however started the first day everything came back to normal. Without drastically changing yourself, most regular smokers will not quit it

by keymon-o 6y ago
I find it more funny that many people quit smoking during the quarantine in my country, because they stayed in their comfy homes without stress. However, once everything got back to normal, their habits did too. Of course, I am not laughing

Good for her. I'd compare quiting cigarettes to losing weight, since I have some experience in both. Quitting is not a result, it is an effort you make through your life. It can be pretty easy for some, others need to focus a bit more.

Golf match should not be defined as a consecutive failures before a potential success, but more of a set of strategic actions before a potential success. But yes, it is not defined what they took into account. e.g. Calling the same potentia

If there were any conclusions made in the article, OP would probably make sure to dramatically acknowledge the subjective idea in the title. I guess we can only wait for the title "Here is 10 reasons why you are a loser, Harry..."

Not a full feature i3-like software, but I was amazed how it implements almost all features I like about i3. https://www.workspacer.org/ It was mentioned in a FancyZones thread a few months ago.
