Why shouldn’t people use windows?

You can’t expect the average person to be tech savvy enough to use Linux and most people cannot afford a Mac. Especially in developing countries.

Windows is the best OS for the average person. Just not for advanced users such as researchers

All numbers are imaginary

They are a logistical concept, invented with the purpose of counting and calculating quantities.

Strictly speaking “Math” doesn’t exist in nature.

Circles are not round because of Pi. A triangle’s sides are not consistent because of the Pythagorean theorem. A thrown ball doesn’t travel in a parabola because of Algebra.

Math is a tool CREATED to understand natural phenomena. Though its logistical power is so strong that it can be stretched to understand almost everything that can be measured.

If a tree falls in the woods it vibrates the air at an audible frequence. Your ears absorb the vibrations and send a signal to your brain that we understand as sound. But the tree never makes a sound. The tree exists and interacts with the environment. Your brain interprets some of those interactions as sound.

You can think of the numbers as the sound. You can understand them clearly, but they’re just an interpretation of a natural phenomena.

So you’re saying that everyone that dislikes anime “just doesn’t get it” ? That’s a pretty silly take.

I’ve watched about 100 different shows and all kinds of anime genres over many years but I stopped because I can’t do it anymore

Most Anime shows suffer from the same issues. Personally The 2 most difficult things to deal with in are:

- Incredibly frustrating dialogue

I hate how characters speak in an extremely unrealistic and cringy way. It throws me off every time and I can’t connect with the characters. It doesn’t need to be realistic dialogue of course. I just think that anime is very far removed from acceptable dialogue, even for a show

- Shows never go beyond their basic tropes

Edgy anime is edgy and then nothing else. Every slice of life is just that and nothing else. Everything is extremely formulaic and you’re just left with the characters. And the characters are unidimensional. Please add some substance to the plot. Create more human and imperfect characters. Every character represents a trope and has no more nuance than that. The clumsy character is just clumsy. The bully character is just a bully. The main character is either the smartest or the most powerful being in the universe. EVERY TIME.

Seinen anime is a bit better regarding this last point. but it’s still too much. I can’t sit through an episode without cringing several times. Especially over the dialogue

Sure but in this case the judge is not censoring merely incorrect information. It’s written in the article that I assume you haven’t read

The judge ordered to remove the account of a militant group that attempted a coup after the party they support lost the election

This is exactly the kind of thing that should be censored. Anti democracy groups

It’s all appeal to emotion

A good narrative is captivating. It’s really simple and comforting to know that the world is good vs evil and you’re on the good side. Those guys are on the devil’s side and we must stop them at all costs or it will be THE END OF AMERICA!! ** Dramatic yelling **

It’s easy to convince less educated people using fear and misdirection. What are they gonna do? Check the sources and think critically about the topic? Lol

Convincing someone that thinks you’re their mortal enemy is difficult. That’s why you have to be their best friend. Show them that you care for their opinion and ask them to explain to you. Show genuine curiosity and then give them something to think about.

“Hey, I see your point man, but I don’t know enough about this so I’m not sure. Hey I’ve found this article that has some interesting points. What do you think?”

It’s not easy but I think this is what really creates change

Remember to be your enemy’s best friend!

when you criticize someone your objective is to help them form a better opinion. If you simply point out that their opinion is wrong it’s likely that they will consider your argument as an attack on their values or self. At this point the argumentation is of no value

Instead talk to them like you would talk to your best friend. Listen and try to understand where their concern comes from, and ask questions that make them have to analyse their own opinions.

You need to help them see what their biases/emotions won’t let them. It takes patience and compassion.

Do you mean that your sadness levels are consistent among all times you’re exposed to bad examples of this linguistic change?

Should it not be “constantly saddened”, meaning that sadness is caused often upon you when seeing such examples?

If this is the case, I can relate to that. Or should I say… it do be like that sometimes

This sounds so stupid in my head. I hate it

Pulls existence from the void

This point is highly dependent on whether or not you believe there is some sort of soul or existence before birth. I cannot argue on this point since this is pure belief, so I will accept your view for the sake of the discussion

Questions how not doing so could have prevented suffering

You could say it prevents suffering, but it also prevents Joy, Love, Friendship. Sure it also prevents Sadness and Grief and so on. It prevents everything by way of not giving life a chance.

If you think you cannot provide a happy life to your children then it’s perfectly valid to not want children. But it’s egoistic to think that other people should not have kids because of your own world view.

Many Antinatalists believe that life in the current world is filled with so much suffering that it’s not worth being born.

But that’s like… Your opinion man! Let people make their own choices

I don’t think that this is AI. In fact I’m curious to how it was made

It’s absolutely fine if you don’t want to have kids

I don’t agree with the Antinatalist idea that having children is immoral. Or that Antinatalism reduces suffering.

If I’m incorrect please elaborate

I’m sorry that you had a bad experience with your psychologist.

If I can point out one thing that might help you is that these thoughts largely come from an evolutionary trait called Negative Bias

Negative Bias is the disproportionate focus on bad events and/or memories compared to good events.

It applies to a large range of memories and our ability to perceive danger. Evolutionary it makes sense because our embarrassing memories makes us afraid or unwilling to behave in a way that the social group doesn’t like.

You can imagine when humans lived in societies in small groups of 30 people, that disrespecting someone could get you kicked out of the group and potentially starve to death in the wild. So there is a very strong evolutionary pressure that made your brain evolve to avoid repeating bad scenarios

Your constant embarrassing, sad, or traumatic memories are your brain reminding you over and over not to be in that situation again.

Unfortunately your brain didn’t evolve to be happy. It evolved to survive.

All I wanted to explain is that these memories are not your fault. Don’t feel like you’re any different because you have bad memories constantly. Accept that your brain will do what it is programmed to do and learn how to work around those tendencies.

And I could recommend trying another psychologist. I’m also available to chat if you’d like. Cheers 🙂

That’s a great comment. I go though basically the same steps with my constant flow of embarrassing and/or sad memories

If they’re useful then maybe I should explore this thought for a little longer, or try to speak with someone

If I have nothing to gain from it and it’s just making me cringe or sad I try to do something else to distract myself

It’s important to not shut these memories down immediately. Some memories really need to be explored in order for you to properly leave them in the past. And you can bottle up a bunch of emotions if you refuse to think about thoughts that come to you constantly.

Yup, but that’s all you have right now

I’d argue the senile old man is MUCH better

America best country in the world am I right??

It’s a meme. It’s just trying to say that Biden is embarrassing and/or a bad candidate

His party dropping him would only guarantee that trump is elected. It would be a dumb move and it obviously won’t happen.

You might not like Biden, but against a twice impeached, insurrectionist felon, I would vote for Biden every time

I would also vote lettuce against Trump.

But I’m voting Joe to keep that orange imbecile away

Spoiler. They did free Will in the end
