Why are they waiting for the 2 months in the agreement, it’s clear US won’t pay the 300 billion nor removing it’s war assets in the region and clearer Israel won’t be leaving Lebanon, they’re letting the US stock up on air for another strangling session when they could of just made them pass out immediately
The fast movement and lack of sight is what’s scary about them, snakes tarantulas will move away from you and do it slowly, cockroach will run in any direction at full speed when startled unless you explicitly startle them with large thud near them, otherwise they might dash full speed towards you
Also social upbringing making them out to be some great threat and fact we’re way more common to see them than the other actually dangerous creatures
All of the island’s economic problems come from one specific part of the outside, i hope people can fight back before they add a solar panel tax or something, the west has no good in mind for Cuba
If you’ve been using AI for a while now you’ll have grown to depend on their convenience, effectiveness aside, the time saved on simple tasks makes them very appealing to just rely on
Once you stop using them you’ll notice how much time and effort goes into those simple tasks, even just writing a post and finding information on a subject takes minutes, you’ll notice it immediately and you’ll get withdrawal because of the friction in manual work
So keep in mind that you’re doing this to regain back agency over your life be it in information you gather or work you create and fight temptation to pick the easy way that chains you with dependency
Israel is still occupying and bombing Lebanon, Syria and Palestine
I thought the IDF committed it
Happiness to me is having a meaning to my life, i couldn’t find a point to living for myself that was logical so i just gave up living for it and decided the only reason to live is to be morally good
So now happiness is being a good person, every now and then i’d get unexplainably sad or angry if i’m too happy for self interest reasons because life lost meaning for a moment
You’ll get withdrawal symptoms probably so fight the temptation to use it!
Yes eventually, the only way it won’t be is if it’s physically impossible to replicate a human brain, i don’t believe that’a the case
Fuck AI nonetheless, it needs regulation not hope
How would working solve my survival issues, if that were the case it would mean i have control over my survival situation, so i’m my own boss? Sure then yeah but at some point if the situation isn’t solved i’ll look for an alternative instead like a different job or rioting
Not really, i’ve know many people like this who were bottom of their class and had edge over me in chess, fun games like it or random specific trivia, they don’t do it to feel intellectually superior they do it because it’s more enjoyable to them than studying
They’re not dumb they’re just not trying altogether, and when i talk with them about the topics they enjoy they actually show great understanding on them, it’s all just people with interests
If they were trying, say in a debate and they’re deliberately refusing to follow simple proofs they themselves use, yeah then they’re dumb, but i’ve never come across someone like that that still managed to be good at something, it’s a core part of learning as a process
Sure there are people with useful interests and ones with useless ones, but i refuse to call the useful ones smart and useless ones dumb, it’s demeaning to those people’s capabilities, i don’t hold anyone to this way of thinking it’s just mine
True, and it actually makes up the majority of the skill as well, i just don’t like to look at people as gifted or lucky because it’s unfair, it’s kind of sad hahaha
I get easily conquered by defeatism if it’s done through pure logic and there’s no doubt about luck being a huge factor in skill! And in life in general, So i just kind of look away and continue grinding what i enjoy, because it’s the only thing you can do to enjoy competitive activities
Both sides are just people with interests, i never understood the smart/dumb distinctions, there’s just interests, dedication and morals
It’s always ulterior there’s no doubt about it, the first paragraph is as media biased as you can get on these matters so to anyone reading don’t buy into these reasons, the US doesn’t have anything to prevent or respond to, they only enforce and instigate
Bring 3 aircraft carriers to shores of Israel
AI didn’t steal jobs or creative work of most normal IRL people, so same as with what happened to artist years ago, they had to navigate the crisis without them, the same is happening to programmers now, people IRL are not exposed on a personal level to as much of the dark side of AI business, only environmental and educational arguments land with them, and they’re not as effective when it gives them access to seemingly free art, info and computer skills they never had
This is how i understood them personally, they don’t see it as their war, just as a war, hopefully with free subsidized system going away they’ll take a harder stance like the rest of us
This is normal don’t be ashamed, social media, chaos of this decade and phones have destroyed our attention span, keeping focused on an activity is so difficult for most of this generation especially if it’s as uneventful as reading is
My best advice is to try Manga, the visuals might keep you interested enough to hook you on the activity of reading, then you can try more text heavy books as you go, you have to be addicted to it to fight addiction of phones
You can also try Audiobooks but i personally find myself zoning out on them so many times, it’s like i’m consuming books without actually taking in it’s content
It depends how you use the word, i see it as people being forced to do something they don’t want to do, you don’t say “I blackmailed you into buying a better product”, in same way i don’t say “Trump was blackmailed to be corrupt and make a fortune out of market manipulation”
