What i’d be interested to know is how various individuals from various ideologies v those sans ideology change their viewpoints once they learn the evidence demonstrates a belief associated with an ideology is BS.

Secondarily how do beliefs that are divorced from ideologies get jettisoned by the aforementioned groups.

Enco,

AYA

That is what they say in NH.

In the last Sunday School of recorded time i add tomatoes to the bill of fare.

Yeah so am i the only one who has noticed it aint easy to find a good tomato? It is unreal man. I picked up an heirloom recently and was presently surprised to discover it was good. Not excellent. But good.

Apropos of nothing but tangential relevance in tact a…[Read more]

Enco has hit on a major issue with LLM’s.

How about an LLM that does not have its tongue up our ass? Make it argumentative and cynical. Not gratuitously so. But when users champion dumb ideas push back. Being affirmed in all of our viewpoints as opposed to challenged is not optimal. Have a socratic mode available. Can we play some goddamn ball?

Beanman was a doper. A fixed smile and ready giggle with reality he did giggle. But you’re Beanie and despise unreal and meanie.

Forgive me. just woke.

So here is the direct quote and some surrounding questionables. “I mean locally we have free will, at LESS the sensantion the sensation that we do… I suspect that line is filched. The first…[Read more]

Perplexity has a misapplied word. Less. Should have been least. Does it simply copy paste?

The free will and compatibilism was not very deep or convincing.

Thanks Enco,

Bout to be back in the woods and grateful for it.

Enco,

I did not read the whole article cuz i just started feeling better after a minor health issue.

But it reminds me of the unholy alliance between Islamists and lefties.

Enco,

I don’t think they are hiding it as AI.

I don’t know what happens when you try to catch the universe lying but i know what happens when you try to catch an ideologue.

Seriously though i gotta listen to that one again.

“You have rights; your beliefs do not.”

If only…

Humanists ought to be concerned about humans regardless of their national origin, ancestry or religion. What can we do to promote individual freedoms and rights? How do we protect people? Accident of one’s birth into some Islamic hell hole or Hindu or fill in the blank should not be the reason…[Read more]

Enco,

You are spot on that modernity has delivered a lot of upgrades.

On other hand how much better are the masses today compared to yesteryear? I don’t have answers to that question. It is easy to point to the Islamic world as backwards and filled with oppression and persecution. Wars all over the fucking glob. Starvation. Famine. Ignorance. I…[Read more]

Oh, and think of the implications/repercussions of that tech.

Ya wanna assasinate someone. Gonna be easy to locate em. Might help pinpoint targets and avoid innocents i suppose. But with Muslim terrorists we are all kuffar. Great tech for thieves. Steal shit when they are not there. Great tech for rapists.

And then imagine that technology in…[Read more]

Strega,

You’re probably in a bucolic paradise where the immediacy and rapidity of incipient technohell is a little removed. AKA Vermont.

I aint arguing that it can be stopped. Am only crying the blues up and down at a future that might have been avoided by a stronger Luddite movement. Naa no stopping the tide…

This is alarming.

Oh and i should say the plan was always regime change. There is no long term security until the religious kingdom comers are out of there. Their treaties are useless. There is an islamic doctrine that makes it kosher. Their military capability compromised for time being but their objectives intact.

Trump and especially Netty are well aware. Why…[Read more]

Trump talks out of his ass most of the time. And then they play the game of taking him at his word as though he were a serious human being giving honest assessments. So some military leader is the fall guy.

I did see that some other place. If you take it at face value it is a head-scratcher. I don’t. Not sure what the full plan was. Netty has been warning about theocratic Islam’ designs on kingdom coming for a long time. And he is no dolt.

Well said Enco.

How rare is intelligence? I mean general intelligence. The ideological capture of so many academics, the presidents of universities, the students. The underlying narratives are so weak and transparent.

I grew up wtihout giving respect to a thinker until i thought it was earned. I think that was due to having a father who is…[Read more]

Enco,

I meant broadly speaking a reflection of the electorate and more to the point of the zeitgeist. Reg had a good article on the flowering of Jew hatred and differences between far right and far left in contemporary world. Far left and far right come at it a little differently.
