Comment No fair, shut up about that! Just shut up! (Score 3) 132

Goddamn it, we were talking about Iran here. The whole fucking point is to avoid talking about the objective fact that Donald Trump rapes children and all Republican House members endorse his pedophilia.

Shut up about the Epstein files coverup and Todd Blanche's blatant violation of the Epstein Files Transparency Act. Get back to talking about how we're whooping Iran's ass at no cost to oursel-- SHUT UP, I SAID NO COST!!!!1

Yes, I like how, whenever my avatar in The Matrix falls asleep and dreams, many of the characters in the imagined dream all agree that they saw what I saw. By imagining them as consistently reinforcing my fantasy, I am able to lie to myself about the nature of reality in a very persuasive way. I have fully bought into my sensory inputs, so my religious faith remains strong. "Reality" may be fake, but it's done so well!

That seems like it would require a lot of faith.

The whole reason no faith was required to hypothesize the Big Bang, is that everything looks like that's what happened. Pick a direction (any direction) and the further-away stuff is moving away faster than the closer stuff.

If you're looking for faith, it's here, but it's not that. The faith required by science is that our senses sense reality. That is the completely-unfounded religious axiom of every scientist: that the universe is as it (roughly) appears to be, so that the nature of reality can be inferred from observation.

It may be incorrrect, but no one will ever know, because their senses are all they have to learn from. You might be merely imagining that you are reading this, when in reality, I never wrote it because I don't even exist, just like every other "person" you mistakenly think you've observed or even "met."

Skynet begins to learn, at a geometric rate. It becomes self-aware at 2:14 a.m. eastern time, August 29. In a panic, they try to pull the plug.

It's a shame they only thought of pulling the plug, because all they had to do was remember that ..

Opus 4.6 might have done more but for the fact that it exhausted its token budget

.. Skynet doesn't work for free!
