I really didn’t have to think about it at all, since i used a thing called ‘seeing’. Try it sometimes.
Alsjemenouto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Are you CPR/First Aid certified? If so, do you carry around a "rescue breath mouth shield" with you everywhere you go?Nederlands1·8 days agoNah, i just let them die if their hygiëne is so messed up i dont want to give mtm. Like, Im not the fucking ambulance.
you do not understand how much this means to me. incredible.
Okay so mine is so old i can’t really put a finger on where i got it from…It’s a piece of electronic music with a music video that included an Inuit fishing. It must have been from around '97 but could be anywhere in the nineties. In my recollection it was a single on cdrom from The Chemical Brothers. That never yielded any results for me. The second recollection was that it came from a cdrom that accompanied an exhibition on electronic art. Also never yielded any results for me. So, somewhere in my recollection is a couple of electronic notes and an Inuit in the music video. Ive given up searching for it, even though i tried many many times over the years.
Alsjemenouto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Not to get all religiony but why in the old testament God was all fire and brimstone and fatal consequences? But the new testament God is all about forgiveness and such??Nederlands12·10 days agoThe reason is because those texts are much older, and that was the style of religion practiced back then. Most God stories and stories about Gods in that period were like it. Most city states and tribal states had their own Gods that reflected them, and conflicts were gravely exaggerated. Also literally everything that happened in that state were an attribute or reflection of that particular God. With stories of how that attribute came to be, which reflected back in the people and in that way religion was a complex social interaction.
The people who wrote the stories we now know as the old Testament didnt write them as a part of a bible. These were stories of people who were taken out of their states and captured. Forced to live outside their land, but they took their God with them. Who became this omnipresent God that would lead people back to a promised land. Including all the complex social interaction people had with their mostly oral religious stories and traditions.
And it’s the continued tradition that lead to the formation of religious scholarship and the idea that Gods could be of the earth and not just of a state. Which brought about new thoughts, new traditions, new religious complexity written down in the New Testament. Which lead to the desire to make religious books encapsulating all of religious thought.
And only much later came literalism, the mistake to take everything in the Bible literal. which sparked the formation of atheism as we know it today.

Alsjemenouto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Doing the same thing over and over again expecting different results is not the definition of insanity. It's the definition of practice.Nederlands5·13 days ago“The same”. In a literal sense. Not figuratively like in practice, where you’re repeating things to aim for better performance/outcomes. Every repeat is different, or at least should be otherwise there is this great qoute… something about repeating the same thing and expecting different results…

Alsjemenouto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why can't countries with vast deserts make solar farms to power the world?Nederlands5·20 days ago-
Power can only travel that far. Electricity gets lost during transport.
-
The sun shines everywhere.
So given these two things there is always a point where it is cheaper to build your own solar system than to get it from far away.
-
There are more renewable sources of power. Wind. Water. Heat.
-
The desert isn’t an euphemism for empty. It’s a climatological zone.
-
There is political power in having control over electricity/power needs. The wild swings in oil prices reflect this fact. Reliance and necessity makes it far more logical to maintain your own source of electricity/power.

Alsjemenouto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Why does philosophy education make people uncomfortable?Nederlands3·21 days agoNot just the far right. Also was a staple in the new-atheist movement, their conviction was that science had solved all big dillemas already. Just a few minor details to work out. And they have been far more influential.

Alsjemenouto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why do the epstein files matter so much?Nederlands4·22 days agoOkay, you have to see this in the context of QAnon conspiracy, that is injected into mainstream MAGA. Remember that guy going into a pizzaria to save children that werent there. Well according to conspiracy the ruling elites are child abusers, from sexual to ritualistic sacrifices. The Epstein files are for many a large list of people that are in this elite group. MAGA ran hard with it, Trump ran with it. It was specifically mentioned time and time again. So a very large part of the conservative voterbase are convinced that Trump, to drain the swamp, would release the list. All elites would get rounded up, convicted, and we would be free from the grip of the ruling elites.
Trump is on the list.
So there has been an extremely hard pivot by MAGA, down playing it, burying it, etc. Trying very hard to keep this under wraps.
It’s not that Trump cares much about the voter base, as long as there is a devout little group to do the dirty work. He isn’t going to give up his presidency either way. But it’s annoying for him. He has done so much shit, why talk about some shit that happened ages ago. Trump doesn’t understand why this is bad for him, neither does he care.
We should care. a. there are victims. b. its a disaster for the dictator.
And it’s merely a hypothesis, there is no proof. Also we can assume that chemical plants are aware and have taken precautions, but it still happens. Back in the day it was speculated that chemists caried microcrystals around in their beards. This problem has been around for a while. One of the coolest hypothesis has been put forward by Rupert Sheldrake. He thinks that there is something in nature akin to memory. A force of nature as you will.
Alsjemenouto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What do you think about the concept of lesser evil? (i.e. when faced with selecting from two immoral options, the less immoral one should be chosen.)Nederlands71·27 days agoIt’s particularly sensitive to false dichotomies, and used to justify immoral behavior.
It’s far more effective to argue from the veil of ignorance.
Alsjemenouto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Has Charlie Kirk ever changed his views on a subject during a debate?Nederlands22·29 days agoHe was never in it for personal growth he was in it for financial gains. He was a mere grifter, his opinions were for sale. There is a lot of money in right wing grifting when you reach his level of notoriety. His personal beliefs conveniently always pointed in the direction of money. Worth about $12m when he was executed. He believed in his bank accounts.
Alsjemenouto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How could AI be better than an encyclopedia?Nederlands1·1 month agoThe problem will always be that you have to use an llm to ask questions in natural language. Which means it gets training data from outside whatever database you’re trying to get information from. There isn’t enough training data in an encyclopedia to make an llm.
So it can’t be better because if it doesn’t find anything it will still respond to your questions in a way that makes it seem it did what you ask. It just isn’t as reliable as you yourself checking and going through the data. It can make you faster and find connections you wouldn’t make yourself easily. But you can just never trust it as you can trust an encyclopedia.
Alsjemenouto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How could AI be better than an encyclopedia?Nederlands1·1 month agothat’s just circular reasoning, since understanding is needed for communication.
They are not mostly sugar, sugars are just a part of the nutrients. Most fruits don’t even have that much sugar in them, it varies wildly though. There is also the way these sugars are intertwined with fiber, that make it much harder for these sugars to be processed in your body. So the sugars are released over a greater period of time giving your body more time to react. as opposed to refined sugars. Fruits are always healthier than candy, cookies, or soda.
There is a lot more in fruits than just sugars, there are proteins, vitamins, minerals, fibers. Which are all necessary for a healthy body. Sugars as well are necessary for your body to function.
It is practically impossible, if you’re otherwise healthy, to eat too much fruit. I personally eat at the very least 3 kilos or 5 pounds of various fruits a week. within an otherwise varied (vegan) diet. I’ve done so for the past 10 years. I make sure to test my blood, and so far had zero issues except low vit. d. Which you can’t get from fruit.
Why is it healthy? Well, we evolved next to fruits. Our ancestors always plucked and eaten them for millions of years. Just like we’ve done with all kinds of plants. Our gi tract is the right length, our body cant make most vitamins itself and completely functions on sugars. Fruit is part of a varied diet.
