I've used, administered and coded on Linux for a very long time. So yup

Obscure keyboard shortcuts.

I was just [insert action here].

Are they counting GOP fundraisers?

There have been plenty of studies on psilocybin with human subjects. None of them included vivisection or bisection. We have other ways of testing this sort of thing.

In rats. I've yet to read a human study on microdosing that showed any effects greater than placebo.

Sounds like the pharmaceutical companies are still investing in governments.

And that activity will MySpace itself just as fast. It seems to me that's their goal. All that investment money hates free speech.

I wouldn't hold your breath. The survivors of the Heaven's Gate cult continued to believe after most everyone they knew offed themselves over a comet. Cognitive dissonance is a powerful thing.

What, again?

I've been thinking exactly the same thing. Facebook, Twitter and Reddit. Each of them a complete shit show of disinformation and censorship. Blogs and personal web sites are pretty much dead. It's getting harder and harder for anyone without buckets of money to stand on equal ground.

After breakfast and coffee things tend to get better.

I'd have answered fraudcore or hip quack.

Right. His body can shame itself just fine on its own.

Wait, you mean this inherently unstable design is actually dangerous? Shocking, I say!

The new age of anti-intellectualism persists. Continues. Stubbornly endures.

Not when I flew there last year.

So you're saying military aggression sucks, but only when it happens to you? Wow. You were so close to empathy.

A couple weeks ago, I had a ten year old account on Reddit that just wouldn't let me back in. I tried changing the password, but the link and the form it gave me didn't work. I tried several times, no luck.

I contacted support several times. They were worse than useless. If that's how they treat their most loyal content creators now, why on earth would I ever go back?

Oh well. It was fun until it wasn't.

First, I appreciate your calm response in the context of my sarcasm. It's not what I'm used to on the Internet, and it's refreshing.

My simplest answer is that I don't know. Neuroscience has made a lot of progress in the last several decades, but I'm unaware of any credible researchers claiming to have a unified theory of consciousness yet. We probably still have a long way to go, assuming it's even possible to know.
