oh thank the cosmos there is someone else who notices. im absolutely fascinated with psychedelic inspired communities, but that being said i certainly do notice a lot of people that tend to just devolve into a mostly coherent glossolalia in

there is an implied preposition in that sentence, in the sense that that sentence is equivalent to "i gave the book to him". the direct object comes first (the book) which would be the equivalent to the accusative case in German,

i would argue that it's both. what it isn't, is an internal command built into the shell. but what it is is a series of characters that identifies a binary, and the act of submitting those characters is a metaphorical command to t

it's nice to see something like this. im personally of the mind that graphics really don't matter in video games; they are certainly nice, but you don't need state of the art, AAA high def rendering to make a video game compe

i certainly found myself thinking a similar thought, if only because said username seems highly applicable to my own life. mostly the jobless part as i have done a lot of work to leave the junkie aspect behind but i would be lying if I said

oh interesting, i never seem to find mine to equilibriate over time; they generally get zero engagement. i honestly did not realize that people really put that much import into proper capitalization; i figured most people understand that, g

as tinfoil hat as it is, i personally believe that somewhere out there in the world, there is already a sentient and conscious AGI capable of bringing about the technological singularity but it is either being intentionally kept away from t

sometimes i really wish that people would actually tell me why they downvote what I have to say, rather than just silently doing so and condemning me to the bottom of the comments. i can't really really do the revision part of performa

all i can think reading this is, "well the capitalist in me says that money is money, it doesn't really matter where it comes from, all that matters is where it goes to and what good it can do". i understand wanting to disavo

oh wow i was actually completely unaware of the etymological history of it, but after reading what you said i did some research and confirmed it for myself. thank you for sharing that with me, and for allowing me to turn an unknown unknown

sorry if this comment is against the spirit of the community (i don't think it is, but I have been blocked from posting in the past oblivious to the fact that I wasn't contributing anything meaningful), but that being said... am I

im pretty sure that Gift in German means poison, so i can't help but wonder what exactly you think an English gift is :^)

i don't particularly speak any romance language, but that being said, i still more or less had a vague understanding of what was being said. granted, there was a period of my life where I studied several different world languages, back

as someone who is both allergic to cats and also rather fond of them as companions, something like this makes me very happy. granted, im perfectly comfortable with taking cetirizine daily as it tends to work fairly well, but it would be nic

i would argue that just because they factor into everything and the ultimate outcome, that doesn't necessarily obviate the ability of a conscious actor to act in a subjective manner based on their interpretation of it. and sure, even t

it's nice to see that there is someone else who more or less understands my conception of determinism existing on a spectrum that can directly be mapped the the order of complexity that one is describing :)

i suppose that's a fair assessment to make, but for me personally that isn't how I define a God, as there are several deities within older mythologies and religions that weren't exactly omnipotent (and even mortal ones such a

i don't think that proving reality to be a simulation would necessitate the proof of any divine beings. all it would really prove is that we are within a simulation that was put into place by something capable of doing such. there is n

i find it interesting that there are people who believe the universe is entirely deterministic in nature. I wouldn't suggest that it necessarily isn't, but more that it's a spectrum. free will is an evolved and developed trai

it makes me quite happy to see a comment like this. while I consider myself a rational and skeptical person in most regards, having beliefs or views like these tend to sorta come with the energy of "woo" in the eyes of others who

i would make the argument that anything can cause a psychological dependency if it triggers your reward system in your brain properly. so sure, cannabis is addictive, but then again, so is sugar, running, driving cars at really high speeds,

maybe I was wrong about considering other avenues of seeking income. for the longest time I mostly just focused on web dev, tech support, and just general tech oriented stuff because that's where my aptitudes lie, and never considered

as someone who also lives in Austin i have certainly found this to be the case. the only places that one can get a reasonably decent apple seem to be either sprouts, central market, or whole foods, but the problem there is the whole "w

this is certainly accurate. without the presence of the xenophobia in the first place, there would be no means to appreciate it when people manage to transcend it. and xenophobia obviously exists on a biological and instinctual level and ha

in all fairness, what would one expect the app to do in the first place? sharing through the app is fundamentally different than sharing through, say, your photo gallery, as that just shares the image itself. within the app, and the general
