  • Elaborate. You too @grue@lemmy.world Have there been mass deaths of civilians in Russian-occupied areas? Are they segregating the population or practicing apartheid based on ethnicity? Are they sterilizing Ukainians? Have marriages between Russians and Ukrainians been outlawed?

    What kind of extermination campaign are they running? I’m not seeing it, besides relocating children out of the war zone. I suppose that could be argued as ethnic cleansing, but it can also be justified as protecting children from war so this alone isn’t enough imo




  • I take comfort in knowing that I am part of the world. When I die, the world won’t really go on without me, because I will always be part of the world. History is irrevocably changed because I lived. I was here.

    People will remember me, but memories fade and those people will die someday too. But the impact I leave on the world is immortal,. whatever form that might take. I become part of a greater history in whatever small way I can.

    It’s basically a materialist afterlife. And think of how lucky are we to be the ones that are remembered! How many millions came before us that have been so completely forgotten that not even their bones remain? We live in a data age where everything is recorded, our afterlives will be far longer and greater than people that came before us.

    It’s true that we become subjects of history and cease to be agents in history, but we’ll never really die as long as humanity endures.

    Just gotta make sure we survive the next century.






  • It’s very relevant, because this is the reason they hallucinate. They’re just completing the pattern, no matter how nonsensical it is, because they don’t even know what they’re doing. They don’t reason, they just regurgitate whatever fits the pattern. There’s no awareness of what they’re saying, there’s just a logic chain that says “if I say this, then I say this next” without concern about context or reality. No reason, no awareness, no thought.

    It does not think it’s human. It’s just mindlessly regurgitating words to fit a pattern. That’s it.



  • That women can’t be strong.

    On its face this is silly, women’s peak lifts might not be as high as men but they can lift really fucking heavy things if they train.

    But if you dig deeper this actually has to do with how we measure strength. What is true is that men can lift a larger amount of weight in a single lift, but what this misses is that women can have more endurance and can lift as much (if not more) weight cumulatively over the course of a day in the gym. Estrogen and progesterone play important roles in muscle development, it’s not just testosterone.

    Ask yourself which is stronger: lifting 800 lbs once and then being wiped out, or lifting 450 lbs twice before being wiped out?
