@timkmak They should take it one step further and seize any Russian heddles carrying gas into their port and impound the boats.

You are god-like. You can literally do magick in your head (math) and use it to change the world to whatever great works you desire. The universe can not stand against you, any barrier it put in your way you can blow through like no creature has ever even imagined. You can create things the like of which has never existed in the whole of the universe...

You, a human, are one of the most powerful forces in the whole of existance, start acting like it.

@TheOldGuy They always were, now we just have a new one that Kant embarassed by it.

@freeschool I am literally heading out the door to a flight. But I do want to give you a thoughtful reply when I'm by my keyboard. Im also forgetful but ill try to Rene era to reply tomorrow. If you are willing please ping be about this tomorrow and ill give a proper response

You are always hearing people raving about how amazing women are and the "miracle of giving birth" and shit... I literally just took a shit that is easily twice the size of an average baby and not one person I showed the picture, not one, recognized it for the miracle it was! Sexism is everywhere kings, be safe out there

Interesting fact of the day. Invoking the 5th amendments right to remain silent can and will be used against you in civil court cases. The protection only really exists in criminal cases because in civil cases the jury is generally instructed to assume an invocation of the5th is due to the answer being incriminating.

You are not the king of your brain. You are the creepy guy staning next to the king going "most judicious choice sire"

@elijah

For my curiosity can you tell me which domain name, specifically, you are checking?

@stux

@stux Thanks that gave me everything I need.

@stux Your points are valid, im just trying to confirm them. What was the website, maybe that will help me make sense of it.

Im sure your right, i mean there were enopugh other red flags of course.

@stux UltraGames HK is the Hong Kong branch of Ultragames which is a Konami subsidiary.. Basicaly the guys who built the original NES and SNES and many of its games. Most of them wouldnt be on steam though as they are all retro games from the 90s.

@stux That may be, though if they can just make up a big company name like UltraGames. To give you some context UltraGames are the guys who published all the famous retro SNES games and before. So they are **very** well known.

That said im not disagreeing with you, im just curious. Do you have any links so i can dig a little deeper, im curious now.

@louis

While there would need to be a conversation around that, for me the bigger challenge is just quantifying suffering.

Imagine some future world where we can scan someones brain and objectively measure and quantify their happiness. I would simply take the average over each persons lifetime, using the geometric average, and then would take the average across society as a RMS average.

Obviously when you dont have sci-fi type brain scan devices it becomes a far less precise process to actually quantify it, and therein lies the real problem IMO.

@Ponygirl @bonifartius

@stux I went and looked on Steam, where paradis is pushed, and followed who steam lists as the publisher, which is UltraGames and a very reputable publisher... So im kinda confused, what company website are you talking about?

@elijah

Im so confused, what website exactly? The publisher according to Steam is Ultra Games, the ultragames website has been registered since the start of the internet almost... Can you be specific cause im not seeing what you are seeing.

@stux

@Ponygirl By the way, new thread (for tomorrow). I noticed you are a speech therapist. I recently noticed, through my own observations, that accent acquisition seems to occur **before** language acquisition. I notice this in babies who cant form words yet, but also in animals who havent quite evolved speech yet but can communicate, for example I have noticed it in both cats and dogs.

Any thoughts on this?

@Ponygirl

The objective morality bit seems to be a hot topic anytime i bring it up with anyone... most people seem to have an almost visceral reaction and disagreement to the notion that morality can be objective rather than a pure cultural construct.

I argue its both, while on the one hand the measure of morality is objective (quantity of suffering) ont he other hand what will cause suffering is very much influenced by culture. If a culture covers women up (like muslim cultures) then forcing a woman to wear very little would cause most women to suffer more so than forcing them not to. In a society where women usually expose more like west societies the opposite is true, most women would suffer more to have to cover up. Basically, whatever feels normal for your culture, usually there will be some degree of suffering to depart from that. But my whole argument is that the suffering needs to be measured in aggregate and not just the emotional component.

Anyway im rambling, have a good night, it was a pleasure.
