I imagine it's all mostly underwater, which is the issue
that, or it's still fairly spaced out
the average 600ml bottle weighs around about 20g, and at the patch's most dense that's only 50,000 plastic bottles per square kilometre
I imagine that's not enough to form an 'island' as such, but definitely a concern
the problem isn't that they're 'hiding pics', just that most pics would undersell the significance of it or not be much to look at at all
keen parcel
Let me guess.
paper timber
A line of 5,000 bottles stacked end-to-end (Assuming a standard 600ml bottle is 200mm-ish long) would be a kilometre long, but you'd only need to put 10 side by side to get the 50,000 per square kilometre
so it almost definitely isn't 'densely packed', but still an issue nonetheless

Then out of no where 3 guys rush us. 2 of them at ultra speeds and shooting at the same time. Soon enough my team gets wiped out with me being the only one left. In an instant they appear at the front of the trench and chuck grenades with the sort of precision I have never seen before.

Random thought
I always wondered what dwarf fortress would be like if it was about science fiction instead of fantasy
grizzled sage
hole game hehe
maiden fern
Im pretty sure the map creation would work if it was a galaxy or something
Though its brutal AF combat wouldnt have the same charm with lasers and stuff probably
No many games let you rip you opponents tongue out and spit it back at them after all
What does interest me the most about the game is how complexe it is for a free to play
Especially for how relatively obscure it is for most people
Guess people can’t stand not having graphics i guess
Which probably explains why a game like minecraft which was partly inspired by dwarf fortress got so popular
Alright then
I noticed that recently the devs of minecraft have been focusing a lot on their villagers
kind birch
They've been at least trying to add more depth to the game to give it a more complete feel.
maiden fern
Yeah thats what i noticed
While dwarf fortress already is miles away from minecraft in terms of npc intelligence you can still see similarities
To me at least if minecrat had villagers that were anywhere near the level of dwarf fortress i’d be spending years just playing it
On another note i find it pretty interesting that in a way dwarf fortress is a study on artificial intelligence
plain mountain
minecraft has a long ways to go before it feels more "complete" and less "freeform sandbox"
it's sort of hanging out in the middle right now

Yeah, we can all just hope that the devs get to work on the core mechanics instead of adding more stuff that mods do better anyways

There was a mod for villages a LONG time ago
It was one of the first mods around, not sure if it's still updated
It would allow the villages to grow over time, and you could kind of push the route you wanted them to take
Added stuff like townhalls, bigger churches, and all the buildings were larger
Never been able to find it again sadly

because people abused the system anclet
charred lark
Religion is corrupt and untrustworthy.
@coral osprey
Every single religion has their own version of events. Every single religion particularly Catholics, Christian etc, all believe their religion is the one "true" religion and that everyone should repent and convert to that religion. All while ignoring the many other religions and why they are wrong and theirs is right.
languid pasture
What about omnism?
charred lark
Makes the most sense.
But each religion is a hypocrite.
Religion are fools, we need to address the current problem with have on earth and the consequences of our pushing for other species genocide.
Yes Climate Change / Global Warming is real and this is pretty much the last year we have to do anything about it.
Russia, America and China are all majorly to blame for a lot @languid pasture
We are rapidly approaching our own annihilation and no one believes it.
karmic ether
who are you speaking for who
charred lark
Eh anyone who will listen.
karmic ether
fair enough
coral osprey
Atheism isn't about whether religion is good or bad, it's simply a result of the god question, which is "Does God exist?"
Atheists will answer "no"
cold dock
"Religion are fools"
Wot?
coral osprey
Religious folk will answer "yes"
cold dock
We live in a simulation
coral osprey
Cheeky bastards and people who like to be right will say "I don't know"
That's where I stand, as a cheeky bastard who likes to be right
There's no way to prove or disprove whether God exists
paper timber
but the chances of a god being anything like we imagine one to be is astronomically small
without any evidence, it's really just a stab in the dark as to how a God would look, act, and play into reality
coral osprey
That's also true. Even if a godlike entity(s) did exist, would they be worth worshipping?
surreal zephyr
rationalists will say, "reason with me"
paper timber
Assuming there's no verifiable evidence for any religion, the odds that the gods we worship are correct start to look like the odds for a lottery with thousands of possible numbers to choose
coral osprey
Not thousands, infinite
paper timber
Even more unlikely then
charred lark
religion likes to place humanity above everything else.
coral osprey
Technically 0
charred lark
Plot twist we are above nothing.
paper timber
There may be a god, but we'll never know what it's like unless they start a rapture or something
charred lark
One planet billions of stars and millions of planets.
We make up such a small fraction of everything we don't even matter.
paper timber
so far the only one we know of with life, but we haven't exactly looked too far
coral osprey
There's a finite number of human religions but infinite possibilities.
paper timber
^
charred lark
Infinite possibilities not really.
paper timber
Hell, even if every single possible part of human thought and writing was dedicated to theorising new and unique gods and religions we would still probably never correctly guess it
charred lark
Physics places rules on the possibilities.
coral osprey
Anyway I learned that thinking too much about religion and existentialism and such just makes you feel small and a little depressed.
paper timber
Eh, just live life and feel happy
charred lark
Thats why Buddism is good.
coral osprey
So the practical option is just to do/ believe what makes you happy even if you're deluding yourself
fierce swan
imagine we found intelligent aliens and they possessed a religion that was identical / almost completely identical to one of our own religions
coral osprey
So long as you're not bothering me I'm fine with it
charred lark
Personally thats sort of my religion as buddism is the closest to science.
paper timber
it's nice to believe that you're in it for yourself, not some bastard in the sky who wants you to do what he wants
not all religions are like that but at least the ones I was exposed to were
charred lark
Buddists believe in everything being connected etc.
It's the most science compatible religion.
candid crystal
Depends on the Buddhism really
coral osprey
yeah dawkins said good things about buddhism
I think the quote he got from a buddhist priest is that if there's scientific evidence that something buddhism teaches is incorrect, buddhism will have to change
Very adaptable and flexible mindset
charred lark
Now that's something that most religions wouldn't ever consider.
fierce swan
buddhism isn’t really a religion that’s like most other religions though isn’t it?
fierce swan
NDE?
charred lark
Near Death Experience.
A lot of the time they defy rationality, in term of what people experience and see. But there is a number of recurring patterns same thing over and over.
paper timber
I think it might just be what aligns with their view of the world
charred lark
White light, warm feeling, relations etc.
Thing is some of those people were never religious.
cold dock
God is real because God is everything
paper timber
I remember hearing about someone who died and was later revived (heart thing, medically dead etc.) and remembered seeing HEaven

Whats more those who experienced weren't necessarily "religious"

🤔
paper timber
It might literally be how the brain deals with death
you can't ask a corpse 'oh, what was dying like?'

The only thing I've really wondered is why would humanity create gods in the first place, why bother having it

I'm curious how the emergency life-support cellular suspension program will go.
candid crystal
I mean the ability to comprehend a concept of a god
charred lark
Removing most of a persons blood then replacing it with cooled Saline.
And dropping their temperature to close to hypothermic levels.
candid crystal
like instead of accepting things as they are, coming up with this idea of god instead
paper timber
Oh, so kinda like cryo-freezing?
cold dock
We didn't allow ourselves to comprehend it
charred lark
Not cryo.
paper timber
That will certainly be interesting, and morally and ethically questionable
kinda-like
charred lark
It's been approved by the FDA and is being trialled by Harvard Medical.
cold dock
People used their brains and thought up a hypothesis @candid crystal
charred lark
It allows them to extend theoretical survival rates hours
cold dock
For why we exist
charred lark
As much as 24 hours.
paper timber
Also @candid crystal religion makes perfect sense if you look at it from the timespan of thousands of years ago
candid crystal
I get the idea of religion as a means of explaining
paper timber
Imagine you're just a farmer, working on your farm, when suddenly the grey sky goes darker in the middle of the day and huge bolts of energy come raining down alongside the regular rain, turning trees to smithereens and killing those who get struck by it
charred lark
Thats a very true thing as well.
If god existed "came to earth etc"
Explaining complex quantum physics to primitive beings would have been uhhh fun?
paper timber
or you look up into the unexplainable cosmos at night, and the most your scientists can deduce about them is that you can use them to tell the time of year and plant your harvests accordingly etc.
charred lark
But that begs the question why didn't "god" make us a lot smarter?
Far far too many questions and no "good answers"
paper timber
lots of things don't really hold up to scrutiny in the bible especially
fierce swan
I dunno about that one robot
candid crystal
If you are referring to Abrahamic type beats, there isn't much in the way of hard answers
paper timber
but I digress, my point is that unless you had people telling you that the world was made up of a series of particles you would assume that there was some other being at work
charred lark
Yes and the crimes committed by religion The Spanish wiped out the Aztecs
fierce swan
Metaphysically the Bible holds up very well
especially compared to other religious texts
candid crystal
I'm not versed on Judaism and Islam

Quantum mechanics
charred lark
Many religions have committed absolute atrocities.
paper timber
It's important to note that for the longest time, especially in the 18th-19th centuries, scientists often tried to marry science and religion
cold dock
@charred lark religions?
charred lark
In general...
cold dock
No
charred lark
Religion was forced on other cultures.
candid crystal
The concept of the being being at work is was interests me @paper timber
cold dock
Religion is ideas
paper timber
Newton wasn't just a scientist, he was a hardcore alchemist
cold dock
Ideas don't kill
paper timber
he taught himself Hebrew just so he could try and turn lesser metals in to rarer ones
candid crystal
"It must be some dude that knows more than us"
charred lark
@paper timber Only way that can be done is via a particle-accelerator.
paper timber
which is why he had a huge amount of lead in his hair, a lot moreso than is healthy
try telling poor old Newton that
cold dock
Lol
candid crystal
I think that given enough time you could explain it to him though
paper timber
my point is that science and religion went hand in hand until they didn't, which was fairly recently
True, but you also need to explain a lot
an astonishing lot of what we know about the world was only discovered in the past 100 or even 50 years
fierce swan
I hate talking about religion because after reading and watching people who have studied years of their life into religion and philosophy and metaphysics debate about religion you tend to learn that you know absolutely fucking nothing about what you’re talking about
charred lark
We haven't discovered what makes sentience either.
paper timber
It was believed for the longest time that there was a state of matter which was responsible for giving life
charred lark
Religion is used as a crutch for people who don't want to "think"
candid crystal
I've always liked Popper
the idea we'll never know the truth
but it's out there
fierce swan
@charred lark that is completely and utterly untrue, disingenuous to religion, and honestly a disgusting mindset
candid crystal
Also Religion can be entirely rational in its thinking
charred lark
Well religion isn't going to save you from being wiped out from climate change so what does that mindset matter?
paper timber
Neither is atheism
elfin trail
lol
paper timber
it's not religion vs science, it's religion vs atheism
elfin trail
climate change is bull
paper timber
true, atheism and science go hand in hand, but as I'm trying to say that wasn't always the case and still isn't
charred lark
Willing to bet your life on that?
fierce swan
oh great I can feel the conversation is about to shift
elfin trail
yes
candid crystal
you put just as much faith in the math that proves the science as the a man that puts faith in a man in the sky
charred lark
So what about all the satellite data NASA has collected about the CO2 emissions and temperature changes?
elfin trail
no different that myans saying we need a human sacrifice to keep the weather good
you must be young
charred lark
Not even close.
candid crystal
The foundation you build your science on is one based on faith
paper timber
Yes, it's built on faith, but not entirely without any evidence
charred lark
Models derived from the current data then extrapolated into projections.
charred lark
Simulations.
paper timber
I think we need to take a step back here
fierce swan
hot take : atheism is just a blind belief in science for sciences sake, and too many people put too much reliance on believing that science will save them from whatever the next impending disaster will be (currently, climate change)
elfin trail
lol
candid crystal
The math does work in a logical way, although you could say that is by our own design
fierce swan
*that was two different hot take opinions btw
paper timber
That is true patrick, but there isn't much chance that religion will save us either
charred lark
Burry your head in the sand?
elfin trail
forever
charred lark
Even if climate change isn't real what about the metric tons of waste generated unnecessarily?
fierce swan
the second one was less about saying religion is better and more about saying that more should be done than just hope some magical invention fixes everything
elfin trail
lol
charred lark
The tonnes of E-waste?
paper timber
One of the important differences about science vs most religions is that science and our belief of the world based on it is constantly changing to fit the most likely model
elfin trail
what if, what about, maybe, lol go to bed
fierce swan
the current magic invention people put their money on is “renewable energy” smh
charred lark
Grown adult. Steven not young.
paper timber
Well, it's not entirely magical
charred lark
Magical no.
fierce swan
magic in thinking it’ll do a damn thing about the problem
paper timber
It's not the only step we need to take, of course
charred lark
More viable in long term yes.
candid crystal
I think we need to separate the two issues being discussed here
charred lark
I also blame throw-away society.
paper timber
thinking one thing will fix everything is naive
rustic nacelle
nuclear is necessary
candid crystal
I don't think religion has anything to do with the climate discussion really
charred lark
E-waste is the testament to the throw away society.
paper timber
it's a combination of things introduced, but a serious lot more of things actually done with what we already have, that will fix the situation
that being said, it's still fun to be optimistic
I look forward to seeing if anything useful comes out of fusion energy
charred lark
Good luck with that.
elfin trail
you guys are so silly
charred lark
Dealing the the neutron damage alone will be hard.
charred lark
Steven climate change based on my own research
candid crystal
I think we already know how to "fix the problem" of climate, it's just a matter of doing it better, quicker, etc
charred lark
Isn't just about warming temperatures it's also about super-bug emergence.
fierce swan
Robot, while you’re correct in that renewable energy isn’t enough to fix the problem of climate change, the problem I’m hinting at is there is NO nation in the entire world that is doing even close to enough to fix climate change
elfin trail
your research isnt worth shit weatherman

and that is judging a nation on its own merit

what "is" the working class then

Is far more.

also increasing the cost of energy has ripple effects across the entire economy that need to be accaounted for
