Obviously life will refuse to be neatly classified, but that doesn't mean people smarter than us won't still try to do it in order to better understand the world.
They are the same species by the scientific definition. The meaning of the word "species" has become diluted over time as it was adopted by more people and misused, just like all language.
The joke was also explained in the title of the post "A Very Emphatic Answer" which highlights the exclamation mark (emphasis) on the answer as being important.
I'd probably commission some art of Shadow the Hedgehog on a motorcycle holding a gun. The license plate on the motorcycle would say "ALL0FM3". I feel like he'd appreciate that.
Ah, I like this solution. Thanks for the suggestion! I set up GPU passthrough for a VM on a build years ago with QEMU. I'm sure I'll be able to figure that out again.
Haha, I was hoping that because all my monitors are plugged into my AMD card that it wouldn't cause as many issues, but I was mistaken.
I'm looking at it as an opportunity to learn more about the Linux kernel, the order that certain modules are being loaded in, and environment variables.
Cool! Maybe I can challenge you. Can you help me figure out how I can get my Hyprland session back on my Arch install? I have a Radeon 7700 XT and I recently installed an RTX 4070 to assist with some compute tasks. With both cards installed GDM doesn't populate the Hyprland option. If I remove the 4070 everything goes back to normal.
(This is also a joke, you don't need to help me troubleshoot this.)
(Unless you actually know how in which case I can pay you $20 for your time)
But yeah I totally agree. I still feel mortal fear in my daily life, especially in dangerous scenarios.
But isn't that what the ultimate high would feel like? In order to look forward to dying you have to be able to look forward to limit experiences and bad trips, which is insane.
I just hope that if I die in a violent accident I'm listening to "Last Surprise" from the Persona 5 soundtrack because I would really appreciate that.
Not everyone can live a "good" life by your definition of good, but they can live a good life by their definition of good.
Current generations realize that what older people are trying to sell them is a scam, and they're working on building a new better reality based on their fresh perspective on what reality is.
You can look at religion through many lenses, but at the end of the day religion is just an unprovable fiction we choose to believe because it's how we want the world to work. My belief that if you want to live a good life you should do unto others as you would have them do unto you is religious. Game theory and my life experiences support my belief, but it is ultimately an unprovable belief because of Hume's Guillotine and the fact that my definition of "good life" is subjective.
It's 100% possible that I'm just tricking myself into thinking helping other people is good and makes me happy, but I will still choose to believe.
Nah. But reason and logic are just human constructs that you'll get to let go of when you die. The process of being born is indescribable for me. I think the process of dying will also be indescribable by definition.
What if dying feels like letting go of all your pain? I can imagine dying feels good. The best part about dying is you can't be certain what it'll be like. It could be the ultimate punchline, the ultimate letdown, or just utter nonsense as you fall asleep.
Just like life, dying is out of my control so I'm just going to go with it and try to enjoy it as much as I can.
Yeah. As someone who really likes thinking about metaphysics I'm really excited to die and see what it feels like. That being said I also really enjoy living and I'm not in a rush to die. It'll happen eventually and I want to try to do as much as I can while I can.
Everyone should be excited to die, not just religious people. Being excited to die means you lived a good life that you're satisfied with.
I had a hard time getting drivers for an RTX 4070 setup on Fedora a couple months ago. Not that I'm everyone, but I'm relatively competent so I could see how it would be an experience many people have shared.
Yeah, I think a lot of modern Christians are unaware of how masochistic and sadistic they really are. They get so hung up on the idea that they have a "get out of jail free" card that it justifies all the rest of their behavior, even when that behavior is explicitly called out in their manual lol
