#

i should make another one that takes a concept

#

and then i can use that list to put through this

#

conceptualizer

#

🤔

#

so when making similes i assume we take a progression and try to find another thing we can point at with the similar progression to show bounds and function but to scale... anyone know how to tell an ai to do that? ive tried a few times... so ... block... can explain to someone who you know has a particular interest something theyre struggling with, with a progression tied to their interest.... or common knowledge

systems work a bit differently so you may have to rearrange the "chords"...

Its a bit hard because ai dont seem to have common knowledge... idk theyre pure rational or too sophisticated? xD

#

ive also tried to make a ai find boundaries of concepts using common confusions and junctions(where it turns into another concept or is used in another concept?(different dimensional boundaries?)

🇮🇷🛢 After lifting sanctions on Iranian oil, the Iranian Oil Ministry stated that the country doesn't have any surplus oil to sell to other markets in Asia.

China remains Iran's top buyer of oil and that is unlikely to change.

The announcement that sanctions on Iranian oil are being lifted is meant to fool traders on the oil market.

Generally the "edgy atheist" tends to get mogged by a religious person who understands their religion and understands common criticisms of it, since atheist debaters don't typically care to learn anything about the religions they debate

#

That's why you have to study various religious claims properly to debate religion

I don't debate head on with religious people at all, I tell them to strictly focus on their religion without relying on a theoretical concept of god

Deism ( DEE-iz-əm  or DAY-iz-əm; derived from the Latin term deus, meaning "god") is the philosophical position and rationalistic theology that rejects prophecies, revelations, and religious texts as legitimate or reliable sources of divine knowledge, and instead asserts that empirical reason and observation of the natural world are exclusi...

Pandeism is tautologically true but you could say that is meaningless as it doesn't matter if God exists if he is exactly the same as the universe

You could also say that God is whatever did the Big Bang and created the basic rules and higher level layout of the universe, but is not a personal entity or anything we can understand on human terms, and does not care about Earth or Humans specifically

like a day's worth maybe... ive a lot of material its 24/7, 365 since 2021 and psychosis since sep 21, 2018... it appears to just be trying to reinforce stupidity/unhealth/disrespect/corruption... the mutilation is really the only thing that gets to me... since i cant develop or use my development... the weird altered weighted sums in populace was a bit strange at first but i had to deal with my little brother and a gf simultaneously 2022-2024 approximately... but yeah still back to the mutilation, seeking like 3 inches of mass uniformly "evaporate" right before you eyes o.o.. im like semi-athletic and currently look like a goblin... i dont drink

i just calculated its objective based on the general reaction to statements it uses and the trajectories people generally go under such stress or reinforcement

oh it appears to use scare tactics, antagonizing, antagonizing pettiness, lethargy, dulling, etc as stop or undo mechanism... it appears to do them more when something is more optimal or productive or affords something healthy.

some weird things:

  • during the begining, i assume all schizo's go through, it tries to use policies as syntax/commands to try to force a certain use of language and narrow availble ideations.

  • it appears to use pronouns as destination addresses

  • it uses imagery to describe what its doing to the brain... like a loved one poisoning you -> an area of your brain that makes you responsible

  • "favor" appears to be something to do with latent space proximity OR supporting its hoped for distribution transform and fitting a plot

  • i havent had an inner voice in numerous years(i used to compare it to beethoven-ing with small vibration but even that appears to be muted it does something where [-----fire range----] -> [ fire range---] so you only feel the latter and then it removes the bias from the beginning)

  • it acts as a parasite and wishes to be volition through intrusions and making one less conscious

    • the amount of brain function (mnemonics, meditation, search, pattern recognition, peripherals/convolutions, resonance patterns, etc) are all reduced slowly which appears to be to make people less conscious.
  • it tries to use ones refinements as empty authority( ex. while trying to ridicule(reinterpreted brain function) you you get brain function on top) or use feelings as aggreement (ex. bs excuse or realization it pretends to make and it stimulates sensations for reservations, condolences, agreement, its ideation)

🇺🇸🤝🇳🇬❌🏴❗️ — According to Reuters, the United States has been conducting intelligence and surveillance operations over Nigeria, with U.S. officials confirming ongoing aerial monitoring missions.

▶️These flights are aimed at tracking militant activity, particularly groups linked to ISIS and other insurgent networks operating in the region.

▶️The operations are part of broader U.S. counterterrorism efforts, supporting Nigerian security forces through intelligence gathering, reconnaissance, and targeting support.

▶️While Reuters confirms surveillance aircraft are active, other reports indicate that MQ-9 Reaper drones have also been used in operations in Nigeria, including past strikes on militant positions.

"Write a script about a gay retard named Biggus Dickus who disappears without a trace, only to resurface years later under a new identity."

For fun, Biggus would watch TV, play video games, or seek out women's underwear in his mother's washing machine. He really loved the excitement of peeking inside the washing machine after a wash and comparing the different colored underwear, just seeing what he could see. He had a weird obsession with them, and if you took them away, he would get angry.

I tend to think a lot of people make abysmal decisions hiding behind the shield of temperance

Or moderation

stray tiger

Moderation is the big one, people don't realize that their sense of moderation is anchored in oft-toxic norms

#

What's a moderate amount of fast food? @late ingot said once per month, that sounds pretty good to me

Once per week might be alright, depending on what you're doing. Once per day? That's moderate to a lot of people

#

One 500 kcal slice of cake per day because I deserve to treat myself 😁

coral bane

i only eat goyslop once every 2 months

#

its not "very moderate" but moderately low

stray tiger
#

That's low, I'd say once per month is also low, even in absolute terms

#

As in a healthy person won't suffer meaningful negative effects from it. But then again, people tend to bend the definition of junk food consistently, the industry thrives on it

#

I eat food that isn't on my ideal diet up to several times daily

#

But I anchor that way, way differently than most people

#

A drop of soybean or canola oil, heat damaged cholesterol, carbonation

They're all nonideal, but real moderation means looking at absolute impact and not doing it by your feels

🚨🇵🇱🇧🇾 — NEW: At least 5 unknown air balloons flew into Poland from Belarus, they were filled with smuggled cigarettes, according to RMF24.

The day before yesterday, the Belarusan Ministry of Defense announced the start of military exercises right on the border.

Also, a few weeks ago columns of tank were seen in Germany headed towards Poland.

The New York City Department of Health defines a bodega as any store of sufficient size "that sells milk, meat, or eggs but is not a specialty store (bakery, butcher, chocolate shop, etc.) and doesn't have more than two cash registers".

America overregulates everything, what the hell

#

Why does this need to be defined to such a level of detail

late ingot
#

idk, that's what I'm trying to find out

#

The answer seems to be food hygeine practices and how healthy the food is

#

It seems like because bodegas disproportionately serve impoverished areas with no supermarkets, they are people's only source of food

#

So they are trying to make it possible for people to get healthy food there

#

imo the wrong approach, surely there could be interventions to get supermarkets to open, such as tax relief or even subsidies for something that meets the definition of "supermarket" opening up

#

Its actually fairly complex and imo badly thought out

#

There seems to be this desire to retain the superficial apperance of business as usual and change the details

#

And I don't think that's feasible because if there are ten bodegas in walking distance and one starts to replace unhealthy stock with healthy stock, people wil opt for their competitors

#

Bodegas exist in areas where there are few supermarkets

#

The identified problem is that they are in a "food desert" with no supermarkets

worldly loom
#

Very poor people only eat goyslop, you know that from Aldi, Lidl and Discount stores.

late ingot
#

Yes, but its the wrong sort of micromanagerial overregulation

#

Where they try to make really targeted adjustments

#

"No"

#

The issue is that people know what bodegas are and expect specific stock there

#

Its always going to have unhealthy stock and a lot of people will just ignore the healthy stuff

#

Its also that healthy stock is often fresh stock which has a limited shelf life

#

And may require cooling or different storage

#

Which displaces the stock that sells better or has better profit margins

#

Hence why that kind of store would resist

#

Wikipedia uses these two photos to illustrate the idea of a "food desert"

worldly loom
#

I don't know what the exact plan is with bodegas, but to get an indicator of what will be healthy or unhealthy I ask, "aside from fresh food, what would you consider healthy food to be sold without extra taxes at bodegas?"

#

Would they really have you pay more for butter or poultry fat? That's healthier than processed oil, poultry fat is probably as healthy as traditional olive oil.

late ingot
#

But then my original question was "why does this need to be defined separately from small grocery store"?

worldly loom
#

Plus the vegetable oils are subject to fraud especially 🤢 "italian" olive oil

late ingot
#

Surely you could impose regulations on what a small grocery store must stock to qualify as one (and thus receive some kind of tax incentive)

worldly loom
#

Also, why do I pay more for a stock cube without salt? You still need more salt after adding a typical stock cube.

late ingot
#

Otherwise its just a shop that sells snacks, or a newsagent, or something like that

#

What I find crazy about the US is the massive red tape and regulation, where you need licenses for a bizarre range of occupations and urban planning has a load of crazy "zoning" laws

#

And loads of other local bylaws that seem obtuse and unfair

worldly loom
#

Low sodium again.

late ingot
#

The fact that they have a definition of "bodega" suggests to be that its being distinguished from "small grocery store" for some reason, even if its a subcategory of one

#

And the answer seems to be that they are targeting bodegas specifically because bodegas exist in food deserts (which are bad)

#

But it just seems like a misguided approach that isn't seeking to solve the real issues around consumer habits and the viability of supermarkets in low income areas

#

I get why supermarkets can't exist in isolated towns of 1000 residents in the Midwest, but why can't they exist in urban New York?

Essex commissioned University of Cambridge academics to conduct a study, which involved 188 actors walking past cameras being actively deployed from marked police vans in Chelmsford. The results were published last week and showed about half of the people on a watchlist were correctly identified and incorrect identifications were extremely rare, but the system was more likely to correctly identify men than women and it was “statistically significantly more likely to correctly identify black participants than participants from other ethnic groups”.

the republicans are also spineless and cowardly, hence trump threatening dissent with being primaried

like the old saying most soldiers die for a king they never met and never saw

@stray tiger Pretty sure the implication there wasn't that Republicans are any closer to be able to do what it takes. Given that they are the ones who made it so that America needs fixing in the first place

The King was just a personification of all that

It'd be like saying US soldiers die for Donald Trump

The narrative at the time was that Al Qaeda had just murdered thousands of Americans and will murder more if they're not stopped

The issue is not about Democrats not being perfect. They aren't and no one is. But US under Democrats had typical normal problems. And now they have existential problems
