This is what Jon Snow did. Obviously real life works the same way

For sure. Part of me would want to take a sort of principled stand and not fuck with anything meta. But if I can follow people on threads from Mastadon, that would be pretty nice, and I think that integration would lend Mastadon and federation in general some legitimacy to the normies (for lack of a better word).

Can’t speak to ADHD in particular and don’t want to discount the difficulty it adds, but one of the biggest hills I always have to get over is not judging my own thoughts. It’s easy to get frustrated that you aren’t able to achieve a more still mindset but at the end of the day the thoughts of judgement are just thoughts that can be observed like any other.

It should be left up to individual instances or user who to block. I personally think the integration is great

Meditation practice. Key word is practice. Watch thoughts and emotions come and go thousands of times.

You will be in close quarters with a lot of people. People suck and will be inconsiderate fucks. Airlines are shit and have you by the balls in terms of delays and shitty service.

Go in with low expectations and don’t make yourself more miserable by getting upset about it

AH. Well then… that makes a bit more sense lol

You wouldn’t pay to not own a car

This is how I feel about everything in life. What I like is correct by definition and everyone else is wrong

I recently heard someone make the argument that pain is could intense for simpler animals since they need more explicit punishment for doing dangerous things

We don’t have much way of knowing afaik but it seems plausible

I mean that is pretty much correct. We don’t know what it is, but we can see it’s effect

Even more so Dark Energy

It’s a technical challenge but I wouldn’t rule it out. Apple has been using a “neural engine” in their SoC for faced id, etc. for a while. So it’s something they’ve been working on. It will need to get better, but AI models are also getting more efficient.

There’s a bunch but I can’t find them

Circle back to something I already gave you a clear explanation for?

Learning facts works in some contexts. The context of hot button political issues, it does not

Nothing wrong except it doesn’t work.

Kids generally don’t have ingrained opinions or social groups formed around whether or not 2+2=4 and generally they’re really just concerned with passing tests

Now this isn’t always true and in cases where it is you WILL have trouble teaching. But the vast majority of school curriculum is not this way.

Social beings as well. I wouldn’t even say it’s about how you present facts. We are pretty bad at interrogating our own reasoning for things. We will quote facts when asked for our reasoning, but once you start really digging in it’s often not really about that.

I actually just finished reading “How minds change” by David McRaney and would recommend it to anyone.

But if I had to summarize my biggest takeaway: you can’t really change someone’s mind, you can just facilitate convo with them that leads to them changing their own mind to some degree.

The context there is obviously very different

Yea it is easier for them to ignore. Choosing to ignore it is still a choice. And the effect of that choice is the continued suspension of human rights. There is no true option of sitting out.

The point is framing it as a “political issue” takes the responsibility off of them. Again, it’s true they see it that way, but all I hear is they only care about themselves.
