@OpenComputeDesign Well my example wasn't chosen very well, but with a better example it becomes more powerful...

"I wish i could fly to Pluto and explore" is way better than trying to do it to make others notice.

And for the self-knowledge, thinking about this could lead to understanding underlying, more basic wishes - not useless!

@OpenComputeDesign They can help understanding oneself and communication with others.

Bit hard to make a pie so you can show someone that you wanted a pie. Better say "i wish i had a pie", right?

@OpenComputeDesign It seems like you ascribe some magical properties to wishing?
I do wish i had not been bullied in school, but i still want to keep the learnings i had from it. Not actually a contradiction, since i cannot change the past. More "dreaming of a nicer world", without accepting fake responsibility that nobody asked me to bear.

Blazing hot kind of a takeish 

@OpenComputeDesign That just means most people are not ok, not that the guy was ok.

But it is too short a view, as i hear the guy had a lot more going on than just one bad comment, but many efforts to actively hurt people.

@OpenComputeDesign I guess being able to let multiple things exist in your head at the same time is a useful ability for many things.

Can you imagine that a good day might exist, but not erase the regret of the past - merely push it to the side of your attention?

@elbast
Die Lösung des "Toleranzparadoxon" ist ja, dass es eine gesellschaftliche Grundvereinbarung gibt, und wer andere töten will entscheidet sich gegen diese.
Kann hier denke ich vergleichbar angewendet werden.

@light I think the first step is to become conformist and the second to become corrupt. Can't skip or they won't accept you into their club.

@interfluidity Yeah, one of the themes in this book (more entertainment than scholarly, but fun and thought provoking):

(I can't speak for the translation, only the original in german)

@yourautisticlife Maybe it's one of those ads that try to convince you to give to charity? You know, give a fuck?

@undefined @interfluidity I understand the need for fartcoin (obviously), but TON of what?

Also, is it a metric ton or one of thouse weird nautical units?

@daswarkeinhuhn Hach wie passend, dass ich gerade nochmal Qualityland lese.

Peter klickt OK. Eine andere Option gibt es nicht.

@PippiPunkstrumpf Ich sitze am Pc und erhole mich nach dem jeweils letzten Meeting vom Meeting, bis das nächste Meeting anfängt. Die TODOliste wächst...

@kalfatermann Einfach nur schade, dass es den Hungerturm außerhalb von Anno-Spielen gibt
