Actual human worth/value is measured in empathy for one another, which makes the US destitude in what matters.

well said. i had the exact same thought yesterday.

almost as if competition is what capitalism was always supposed to be about

we invented magnets and all that we used them for were lousy terawatt-scale power generation units.

we’re not using all the same battery tech today. there’s sodium ion batteries which are widespread in china already today. the west is just lagging behind (again)

I’m on discuss.tchncs.de right now and its web UI lags badly probably due to a lot of bot scaping.

If we had Anubis i guess that could be avoided.

you can just put solar panels at the roof

I think they mostly do it to increase the amount they can extract? And also possibly to lower prices below competitor prices.

That is something that i never got. Isn’t all material that old? I mean it didn’t spontaneously jump into existence at a later time.

did you know that the printing press (with movable letters) was invented in china around 1000 AD?

the only reason why the modern age wasn’t started in china (instead of in europe) is because the chinese alphabet was too complicated for the printing press (too many letters to search from). the latin alphabet is simpler and therefore didn’t have that problem

mathematics, an elegant weapon, for a more … civilized age

I can define the nature of the topological matrix we are not IN but rather ARE, but I don’t know a damn dinky how to shake a person’s hand right. Do I go in for the hug on the first interview?

modern society sucks for that reason; all of these unnecessary and often arbitrary rules about what is “normal” in society more often than not make absolutely no sense, and you’re not to blame for this. it’s well known that autistic people struggle with “normal” human interactions for this precise reason.

what it means to be human

is to live in a society.

yeah the same applies to fish of course as well

you can outright taste when the fish was badly killed. it tastes like shit.

this is the turing test all over again: you can’t actually tell whether it’s handmade or made by a machine.

dang that sounds so unhinged once i type it out loud.

i once dug a hole in my (parent’s) back yard to search for water.

well i didn’t find water but i found a girlfriend. (no joke)
