What do you think about people who think that they will trust another person at 100% if he or she marry them?

[lusty zenith]

they have a career in comedy

thank you for your compliment, but my voice and accent are too horrible for VC

[slate mountain]

where are you from? how your accent sounds like?

[lusty zenith]

mostly I just speak too softly. And I am shy lol

but my written English is definitely better than my spoken

[slate mountain]

the first practice ive got was in hungary and their accent is🫡, but i started to understood them fully after 15 minutes of talking, so i think there won't be many problems in understanding your accent

but anyway if you feel uncomfortable i won't insist

[static pivot]

Okay so heres the thing,

I love songs like father and son

But I've been listening to rock n roll mostly

My style is more like AC/DC, over the horizen

[lavish finch]

Cat Stevens?

[static pivot]

[lavish finch]

He’s one of my favorite all-time musicians.

[static pivot]

Father and son is very meaningful one

You listen to rap?

[lavish finch]

I don’t know how familiar you are with his other music but there are so many more extraordinary ones.

If you don’t know about it you might like the film Harold and Maude, which he did the soundtrack for.

[jagged seal]

Hey I hope u have a good day/night , suggest me some good ways for improving speaking

[civic reef]

maybe i should not be commenting on this one too much, since I struggle with it myself, but my struggles are usually caused by being either easily distracted or just getting anxious while talking, but what helped me to even develop any speaking in the first place was listening to the spoken language on daily basis

apps like Podbean, which is free, and Spotify which is kinda paid, even google podcasts if you use apps from google, offer a ton of hours of podcasts on various topics, i just replaced all kinds of radios/any audio broadcasts in my native language with english ones

without approaches like this I think I would have not developed any speaking at all, I would just not be able to form a sentence properly and even distinguish between "this sounds correct" and "okay this one sounds odd"

[slim fjord]

This is so helpful thanks @civic reef

[civic reef]

plus i guess the simple advice would be to just even try, like speaking, even to yourself, because then you get used to it, on random topics, i honestly regret that i have not been doing this for too long yet, i mostly just analysed a ton of native content and that was all I was doing, but if i was actually attempting to speak way more frequently, then maybe i would develop it further and gain preciousn confidence

*precious, the -n was a missclick, of course

[supple harbor]

Yup

It's great until you are a kid lol

[lusty zenith]

Do kids get eaten there or something

[supple harbor]

Sweden has one of the highest child molestation rates in the world

Comparable to south Africa

With the difference that you are treated nice in prison and will be payed bcz of the stress you got from being in prison and couldn't make money from your job

[lusty zenith]

Could have something to do with their low population. Maybe the % is high but the actual number of cases is still better than a country with higher population

Still creepy though

[supple harbor]

Oh, it's per capita

That means the chance a 9yo will be raped is same as South Africa

I think they should just deport the rapers to be held in US prisons

A humanBeing who actually does such thing can't be treated or called a human anymore

[lusty zenith]

What a shame. Maybe it will get better in the future. And yes I agree that crimes like this must be punished seriously

[supple harbor]

Killing a soul is worse than killing a body tbh

[toxic grotto]

I have a question for those who want to chat.
How do different philosophical frameworks like existentialism or postmodernism influence artistic movements and scientific research?

[inland dawn]

i dont think that such thoughts will affect scientific research. if you were talking about religion and not an idea, i would say yes, it definitely affects. as i thought a Muslim would not do research on evolution. however, philosophical views dont have sharp boundaries and do not affect scientific research (this is my own opinion). but art is very different. everything affects art. even a new law published in that artist's country affects artist.

[toxic grotto]

While it is true that scientific research is primarily driven by empirical evidence and methodological rigor, philosophical frameworks like existentialism and postmodernism can still have indirect influences on scientific inquiry. These philosophical perspectives shape our understanding of the world, human existence, and the nature of knowledge itself, which can, in turn, influence the questions we ask and the interpretations we make in scientific research.

Existentialism, for example, emphasizes the individual's experience of existence, freedom, and the search for meaning in a seemingly absurd world. This philosophical framework can inspire scientists to investigate the subjective aspects of human experience, such as consciousness, emotions, or the impact of existential crises on mental health. It may also encourage scientists to explore interdisciplinary approaches, recognizing the interconnectedness of various scientific fields and their implications for human existence.

On the other hand, postmodernism challenges grand narratives and encourages critical examination of power structures, language, and social constructs. While it may not directly impact scientific methodologies, postmodernism can influence scientific research by highlighting the social and cultural contexts in which knowledge is produced. Scientists may become more aware of their own biases, the influence of cultural factors on research outcomes, and the ethical considerations surrounding their work. This critical reflection can lead to more nuanced and socially conscious approaches to scientific inquiry

[thorny steeple]

Very much, the philosophical frameworks you mentioned promote progressive thinking and a skeptic nature which is important to think beyond and induce scientific temperament and creative thinking. I think it's possible to site numerous evidences from the pages of history to support my answer.

[slim fjord]

No u can add

[thorny steeple]

thanks!!

[slim fjord]

[toxic grotto]

Throughout history, numerous examples demonstrate the impact of philosophical ideas on scientific and artistic advancements. For instance, the Enlightenment period's emphasis on reason and empiricism influenced the development of the scientific method, fostering a more systematic approach to inquiry.

Moreover, philosophical ideas have often challenged established beliefs and opened up new avenues of exploration. For example, the theory of relativity in physics, proposed by Albert Einstein, was influenced by philosophical concepts such as the relativity of space and time. This demonstrates the interconnectedness between philosophy and scientific progress.

In the realm of art, philosophical movements have played a significant role in shaping artistic expressions. The influence of existentialism can be seen in the works of artists like Frida Kahlo and Edvard Munch, who delved into themes of existential angst and the human condition. Postmodernism, with its deconstruction of traditional norms, has influenced art movements like pop art and conceptual art, challenging conventional notions of artistic expression.

By acknowledging the historical evidence and recognizing the ways in which philosophical frameworks have influenced scientific research and artistic movements, we can appreciate the profound impact that philosophical ideas can have on shaping our understanding of the world and fostering creativity and scientific exploration

[lavish finch]

“Philosophy, as I shall understand the word, is something intermediate between theology and science. Like theology, it consists of speculations on matters as to which definite knowledge has, so far, been unascertainable; but like science, it appeals to human reason rather than to authority, whether that of tradition or that of revelation.

All definite knowledge – so I should contend – belongs to science; all dogmas as to what surpasses definite knowledge belongs to theology. But between theology and science there is a No Man’s Land, exposed to attack from both sides, and this No Man’s Land is philosophy. Almost all the questions of most interest to speculative minds are such as science cannot answer, and the confident answers of theologians no longer seem so convincing as they did in former centuries.”
― Bertrand Russell, A History of Western Philosophy

[toxic grotto]

Overall, Russell's perspective on the role of philosophy highlights its commitment to reason, its exploration of unanswerable questions, and its critical examination of traditional beliefs. While other philosophers may hold alternative views, Russell's ideas offer a framework for engaging in intellectual inquiry and promoting the importance of critical thinking and rational analysis in the realm of philosophy.

[lavish finch]

Sounds like you're quoting someone.

Maybe using Chatgpt.

Hey guys. I am quite new to this sever so if i am typing in the wrong chat please let me know.

But i have a couple of problems when it comes to Speaking and writing English.
Them being i dont know how to get the things i want to say across fluently. I am never smooth with my speaking as well, i always get stuck when trying to explain something even if i know about that "something" i am trying to explain to.

I am really bad at spelling. Something i never really practiced and now is the time for me to do so. But i do not know how to start.

Mainly i want to learn how to spell better and i want to learn how i can explain things more smoother with good vocabulary that actually makes sense.

Can anyone help me out??

[jovial pine]

Ohhh hell yea

Thanks man

Why you want to your camera on

[little tapir]

if you had a device that lets everyone see things how you see them, a device that lets people be more inclined towards adopting your perspectives. would you use it?

[thorny steeple]

I'd make multiple copies of it and create a business with it earn money.

[civic reef]

it would put me on trial in a way, because then i would have to choose between morality and immorality in a way deeper level than in my everyday life, for example this is a power that would potentially make me irresistable in dating, but would I use it to gain advantage in this aspect and just plainly utilize this to have more fun with more attractive partners? am not sure about this, same for business, i could negotiate under radiculous conditions, and still be likely, unnaturaly likely, to win the negotations for whatever i tried to negatiate for, and in this particular case i think i would be pretty inclined to do that, because business is actually usually no feelings

if i try to think that i could possibly abandon morality, then now i have options like starting a cult, or anything i would like and as a normal person i wouldnt be able to start, but do i wanna live such a risky life?

[slim fjord]

Yes u raight

[civic reef]

or maybe reversed? like i would turn into a hero, and try to convince human trafficers that maybe what they're doing is wrong, using their logic its unprofitable for them, rescue the women who are abducted and sold illegally like items, etc, improve lives of people who would normally have no chances of improvement

[gusty tapir]

Anyone from UK knows about this person? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uMw4tKg4eCg CEO of MEDIZAA INTERNATIONAL EQUIPMENT LIMITED

[pliant dawn]

Hello guys. What do you think about stoicism?

[little tapir]

if we say the device does not work merely on taking advantage of others, but actually spreads your mindset. meaning, the views you have about what is wrong or right, the ideology and so on. so now everyone you know thinks like you and may be inclined to agree with everything you say.

[civic reef]

this would mean that i can be happy in life at no huge cost anymore, like the effort that i normally would neet to put into achieving something would be reduced a lot if i just managed to know a lot of people, and make sure all of them absorb my mindset, because then i can literally create a narrative in which other people would be inclined to obey to me easier, simply by doing something like "i think i should not listen to myself, only to a person who is able to convince me of something in an extraordinary way that is normally impossible" = i logically will not meet a person who has such abilities, but people i know will (its gonna be me), this way i can take advantage of them as much as i want

even if they again absorb this mindset and they want to take an advantage of me myself then, then i can even defend myself against a betrayal like this by extending my logic with "...this way i can take advantage of them as much as i want, as long as I am truly capable of doing something like this" = they would be not able to anymore, but i would still, since all they get from me is the mindset, not the powers of my device

as long as i am able to convince myself to something like this, and believe this narrative myself, then i can spread it, and yet the need of being obedient will not apply to me, because i logically created a process in which it is 100% necessary for the individual to be convinced of something in an unnatural, powerful way

and i can not be vulnerable to this myself, since other people do not posess my device, so i created a mechanism which allows me, and not them, be superior

the only way to vanquish me in that case would be to actually convince me myself in an extraordinary, insane way, which i assumed is impossible for normal human beings to do

What you guys opinion on french riots and rioters

[pure atlas]

I personally think that some people have gone too far, the idea at first was not to destroy life of people that did nothing, they destroy people's cars, burn schools and rob some small shops that are gonna struggle to end the month and probably some more because someone broke their shop or burned their car. Anarchy is a political idea, and they can have this view if they want I don't care but there it has gone way more destructive and some people use the death of this kid as an excuse to rob and destroy. I'm sorry for this kid and his family, and I think abbuse from police officers should be more punished but there it has gone way more far. Some people used guns against the police saying they were responsible but not all police officers are bad persons. A lot of young persons took advantage of the situation to rob . I find it sad that people have so little respect to others for using the excuse that they want to see the governement react to destroy people lives

[dire pawn]

my guy, you've got some run-on sentences

[thorny steeple]

something i can't do much

[thorny steeple]

that would be so bad.. just think, there is no other thought on earth.. i'm talking about losing all colors.. just a black rainbow

[forest raptor]

I'm Sorry to just barge in the convo, but wouldn't it Be Good as well?

[dire pawn]

it depends on the way look at it

and you shouldn't be sorry

this is a public chat in a public server

[forest raptor]

I apologized because i lack the context of their convo

So i might say something completely pointless, but if i understood the question, then it wouldn't be as bad as u think

It would be bad if u look at it from that perspective, because if everyone were to see things how u see them, the World would lack diversity, but u would also avoid pointless misunderstandings, sometimes having different opinions on a specific topic doesn't necessarily mean all the opinions are worth debating.

But then again, it depends on how the device actually works.
If u could use it for just a brief moment to make the other person experience ur point of view and work towards a more rational Debate, as i just said, it would reduce the pointless headbutting between opinions that at times are just simply not worth considering.
But if the device was active over time, like a lingering effect, then it would simply be a mean to force ur view on others and obtain full consent and agreement on Your opinion that could very well be wrong, basically an alternative version of the nazi agenda.
A device that makes other people see things the exact same way u see them can be either a useful item to increase the quality of communication between opposite extremes, or absolute power over everything, a full mind-fuck that lets you "censor" any thought that's not in line with your view, and it All depends on how long the effects last for, and who is in charge of using it and when.

[forest raptor]

Anyways, as i was saying earlier, if i misunderstood the context of the conversation, i apologize for barging in with my nonsense.

[thorny steeple]

hmm Well you don't need to apologize, I actually like your point of view. but i believe the world is better for different thoughts that's what i meant... but your point of view seemed reasonable too

[forest raptor]

I agree with the fact that different thoughts, equal more potential for different, unique conversations.
But you Can't deny that this World has seen its fair share of absolute trash opinions that were based on thin air.

[thorny steeple]

In fact, according to logic, something cannot be right and wrong at the same time.. So what is the factor that creates contradictions?

[forest raptor]

How many times have you listened to someone speak, stopped for a second, and thought to yourself "wow, i just wasted Oxygen and 5 minutes of my Life sharing my thoughts with this individual"

[forest raptor]

I would say most of the time it's ego

[thorny steeple]

right 😂

[forest raptor]

Or rather, more specifically, one's inability to Accept they were wrong on a certain topic, and so they force theirs onto others until everyone agrees.

[thorny steeple]

Well, there are two defendants before the lawyer and the judge, and how can we know which one is correct? so everyone has an opinion.. some blindly lie, some right.. but what is the measure of the concept of truth/truth?

[forest raptor]

It depends on the context unfortunately

Sometimes there's no right or wrong

Just what we define as truth

[thorny steeple]

hmm i think the perception of reality is different for everyone

[forest raptor]

A good example is the endless war of religious people vs atheists

[forest raptor]

That's the key though, reality is one thing, and one thing only

But most of the time no one knows

[thorny steeple]

Definitely

[forest raptor]

Because u only live ur reality

Which is reality+ur perception of it

Which is never quite reality itself

[thorny steeple]

there were logically satisfactory answers on both sides

[thorny steeple]

ur right

[forest raptor]

That's rly hard

When there's an evenly played out match in logic, people resort to ethics usually, which are also far too subjective to be a determining factor

That's what i was saying before

Religion vs non belief

I'm atheist

[thorny steeple]

true and real are not the same if we are talking about philosophical terms

[forest raptor]

And after Years of pushing my narrative against religious people

I realized

[thorny steeple]

yes, this raises the question of what is the determining measure of ethical rules?

[forest raptor]

I'm just as wrong, because as much as they can't prove their "truth", neither can i, but a lot of atheists don't think about this, so they do the same Mistake religious people do

[forest raptor]

Societal influences+culture+hypocrisy

Any reasonable person would agree with the basic fact that we as a species, are unethical by nature

The only thing that got us here, is the fact that we Are more mentally developed, hence prone to Feel complex things like empathy, but everyone feels it to a different degree, while some, not at all

But when empathy, means reality, and the need of survival, u get the hypocrisy i was mentioning just a moment ago

[thorny steeple]

and we come back to what you said at the beginning.. difference, contrasts, conflict...

[forest raptor]

Because if u're in a dire situation, u can't and won't prioritize empathy over ur survival, ethics are just a desperate attempt at deceiving our own perception of ourselves

It gives u this false hope that you are a good person, because society molds u around this "ethical code", but if u look in urself long enough, u know it's bullshit

[forest raptor]

Some stuff is undeniable tho, but i agree, i fucked up here, what i stated cannot be considered fully factual

It's definitely influenced by my very negative perception of reality

[thorny steeple]

what about hypocrisy? Can you unpack this a little? i.e. to ppl have an ego? or

[forest raptor]

The hypocrisy I'm referring to is the basic human condition, in contrast to our "advanced" Society

Think about it, how many people, do u see, constantly claiming to be Good, with all their bullshit

[thorny steeple]

hm

[forest raptor]

Oh i go for green energy, oh i do charity, oh i do this and that

And then, u take a look, and realize that out of 7+ billion people, less than 2.5 live this life we Know, thanks to the sacrifice of the other 4.5+ that live in inhumane conditions

So how good can u be when really u are in a lucky spot, that never forces u to go out of your way

[gusty thistle]

its okay to have ego sometimes...from my experinced

[thorny steeple]

so basically they are not as we perceive them or they are.. we can never know that.. unfortunately I can't read people's souls and feelings.. sometimes it's hard to read good or bad with their words.

[forest raptor]

And keep in mind, I'm telling you all of this without caring, i couldn't care less about these people I'm talking about, but atleast i don't claim to be Good when i know I'm just a lucky piece of shit

[forest raptor]

There are good people

What I'm saying is, good and bad are very childish concepts

If u look at reality, good people most of the time are good because they've been treated horribly in the past, or as i said, because their lucky situation lets them be

[gusty thistle]

we all have good and bad sides ... dont matter

[gusty thistle]

thats the mater of choices..

[forest raptor]

Some people Are worthless scum, but a lot of bad people are just individuals in a situation that forces them to act unethically to in order to survive, and lucky people like us, always have some "nice" Words to share, fully dressed with all of their hypocrisy, we All like to act high and mighty, but very few people can claim to be unconditionally good

[gusty thistle]

matter*

[forest raptor]

Yeah that's where I'm getting at basically, good and bad isn't a real thing, it's a concept

[thorny steeple]

we read it as psychological.. human impulses.. and for survival sometimes.

[forest raptor]

It's mostly a matter of circumstances and will power, if u can handle suffering without turning ugly urself, good for You, but most people fail miserably, myself included

This is just me answering ur question, Moon, not tryna lecture anyone, I'm a piece of shit as well, i just avoid lying by claiming to be good, since i know I'm neutral at best.

[gusty thistle]

our past experiences , regardless , doesnt define us, its our choice to make,

choices*

[forest raptor]

Yeah, the ego Juleen is talking about, is good to have, almost necessary, i was referring to dumb people's ego

[gusty thistle]

thats different ...

[thorny steeple]

omg pls

don't be so hard on yourself

[forest raptor]

As i said, we Are most likely in no position to judge, a few traumatic events were enough to turn me into this mess of a person i am, imagine people with actual horrible lives. It's easy for us to say our past doesn't define us.

[forest raptor]

It's a bad habit, but it's better to acknowledge ur short comings, rather than lying to urself, don't You think?

[lavish finch]

Yes

[thorny steeple]

goodness and evil.. what makes the good ones good, what makes the bad ones bad.. I believe this is very relative, so we shouldn't generalize

[gusty thistle]

me personally i had dealth with people that , made me bad choices because i was fighting for my rights and protecting myself. and made me diffeent person, liked it for a while but just its not me, so tbh ,, im working on getting myself back. ive been playing dead, emotionless, and unconerned for a while... just i cudnt anymore.. coz just not me..

[thorny steeple]

well this is real for you but not for me

[lavish finch]

…

[gusty thistle]

i heard u with that.. when the trauma and pain,,, everything is too mcuh.. but we always have a choice

[forest raptor]

I won't speak on this, because i don't Know you, but saying people made you do bad stuff, is almost always a lie, it's usually still a choice, but u just blame others to Feel better about urself, but again, i don't Know you, so I'm in no position to judge.

[forest raptor]

That's the beauty u Talked about before

We Can disagree, but recognize we both have a reasonable point of view, and have a nice respectful conversation like this, i always like to talk about these topics, to see people's true colors.

[gusty thistle]

life balance.. and thats how we learned

[gusty thistle]

i hear you.. but to be clear ... i dont mean to blamed someone.. it was my choice .. so it was my mistake...

[thorny steeple]

There is an example in which Freud is given through children. they all grew up in the same bad conditions... but they all became different people.some are doctors, some are swindlers, some are murderers, etc.

[gusty thistle]

but i learned from it... and will always be learning ... we are just humans afterall... not an excuse tho

[forest raptor]

U know that better than anyone, i wasn't stating anything, i don't Know you, so i wouldn't dare disrespect you by just assuming stuff about you, i was just sharing a common thing that happens.

[gusty thistle]

...

[thorny steeple]

so this is acceptable , sorry for that

[forest raptor]

At least u take the time to work on yourself, u can be a piece of shit and work to become somewhat decent u know? Even better if u start off as a decent human already

[forest raptor]

Yeah humans are too unpredictable, too many variables

[forest raptor]

No need to apologize, i like You, you're just calmly debating with me

We both are being respectful to each other, u just seem to be a lot more positive than i am, which leads to some minor disagreements

[thorny steeple]

aww girl! ur right..Only do best for you

[gusty thistle]

yes i need too.. ive been thru alot and only God knows wat else.. and made choices...

[thorny steeple]

psychologically so haha ​​you read me well I can't deny

[forest raptor]

Then keep going, just work on urself until u feel u've reached a point where you are satisfied with the result

[gusty thistle]

you two seems great

[forest raptor]

What do you mean

[thorny steeple]

I would really like to know that.. so I can be predictive.. I'm not sure if this is possible under certain conditions..

[forest raptor]

Ofc it is

[thorny steeple]

so you noticed my point of view

[thorny steeple]

aw girl u2

[forest raptor]

If u put someone under an outstanding amount of stress, or if u endanger them to then point of them feeling threatened, u can usually predict basic behavioral responses, because during high pressure situations we tend to act more like animals

[gusty thistle]

right 101% , tho i learned it the hard way...

[thorny steeple]

now we understand how unique the differences are "but sometimes"..

[forest raptor]

Well that's the point of a Debate, i like your view, because it's more realistic, less negative, but i also know there's truth in my view, we Can both learn from each other, that's the key to this conversation

[gusty thistle]

[thorny steeple]

i.e. to be protected, or to close oneself to it.. I think it's instinctive yes

[gusty thistle]

i dont mean to send that

[thorny steeple]

oh srry

heheh

[gusty thistle]

im new here so im still everywhere

haha

[thorny steeple]

it's fine

wlcm @gusty thistle

[lavish finch]

…

[gusty thistle]

👏🏻 both of you guys

[thorny steeple]

hey Mr. James

[gusty thistle]

thank you thank you

[forest raptor]

U can predict other stuff as well, but I'm Not a psychologist, i don't Know the ins and out, but i know there are several different things u can predict with people, i said we Are too unpredictable, but the correct sentence would be, we Are predictably unpredictable, even in chaos there's a pattern, just like mental illnesses

[thorny steeple]

it's like a paradox haha

[forest raptor]

Or maybe, going back to ur previous argument of "what's real at all?", maybe we believe it to be this Way because humans are just simply wired to find patterns, even when none are actually there

[forest raptor]

Ironically most things are paradoxes if u look at the human Psyche and its functioning

[thorny steeple]

So how much is instinctive?

what drives us to this?

[forest raptor]

As i said, not being a psychologist, i can't say it for sure, but on a basic knowledge level, we Are a mixture

[thorny steeple]

now i agree with you

[forest raptor]

We Are the result of a simple sum

Primitive brain+behavioural evolution shaped around modern society

[thorny steeple]

well I don't think it's simple at all.. I believe we are very complex beings

[gusty thistle]

humans are just complex being driven by different rulers/ rules..

[forest raptor]

Ur primitive part of the brain determines basic instinctive responses that help u deal with danger and survival, while the stuff u need to live in society, or atleast to live a civil life, is learned stuff, artificially structured patterns we developed to avoid behaving like animals in heat 24/7

[forest raptor]

As u said, paradoxes

Our complexity is partially caused by how simple we Are on a deeper level

Think about what i just said about the mixture

If u see a beautiful naked woman, the natural instinct is, breed, take control, get pleasure, reproduce, go Ahead, Repeat the cycle

U are inevitably gonna get an erection

So why don't You have sex with her? Because that would only work in a simple world, like the ancient one

[gusty thistle]

strange sometimes

[forest raptor]

In today's society that would be rape

Which is a nono, regardless of ur ethics

So the responses we get, the reactions we Have, are still very simple, but we Are conditioned by our modern behavioral structures, that we need to keep a somewhat stable and ethical society(which we are not, but this is debatable), hence a simple reaction has to be processed with a complex system of mental processing, that's why we Are not beasts anymore

The thing is, we still are, we didn't lose the instincts, we just know better, and usually, avoid acting upon them, unless it's allowed by our modern rules

[thorny steeple]

We can talk for hours on such matters.. I know that ideas give birth to other ideas.

[forest raptor]

Yeah i know, i just liked talking with you about these topics, I'm just giving u my opinions built around some facts that i know, but looking for a final solution is not realistic here

[thorny steeple]

We discussed it for hours with the professor at the university haha.. human, human values, instincts source etc.

[forest raptor]

This was just a friendly Debate, I'm Sorry it eventually extended this much, but i appreciate ur interesting, respectful feedback

[thorny steeple]

me too fr.. it was very nice.. i really enjoyed it..

[gusty thistle]

interesting tho

was reading cathing up ..

[forest raptor]

Good for You, I'm 20, i just read some stuff, and shaped my opinions on some of the facts i know, and the behavioral patterns i noticed in myself and others, but i bet it feels nice to talk about stuff like this with actual professors, good for you.

[gusty thistle]

catching up*

[thorny steeple]

likewise me... I appreciate, satisfaction...

[forest raptor]

I'm glad it wasn't a bother, i hope i could give u at least some stuff to reflect on, and i hope u didn't feel any hostility or disrespect, it wasn't meant, if u did feel it.

[thorny steeple]

seriously we argued so politely that i was about to cry lol and part of the conversation i said yes haha we agree

[forest raptor]

That's all That matters, it was a pleasurable experience on both ends, i also appreciated some of the interventions from @gusty thistle, anyways, good night, and ty for the Interesting convo

[thorny steeple]

I have another friend and we talk to him like this for a long time I wish you to meet him hahah

[forest raptor]

I mean if he has discord we could all have a small voice chat debating some interesting topics like these, peacefully

Or just let him drop a few texts, idk, it could be fun

[gusty thistle]

likewise and thank you,, i enjoyed reading ur convos, just hope i wasnt rude for the interventions..

ya all have. agood night..

[forest raptor]

Nope, u were very respectful, and some stuff i agreed with as well, i hope u had a good Time too, I'm Sorry if i was rude in any way, didn't mean to.

[gusty thistle]

u were not , u just pointing out ur opinions, im an open minded person and i doint judge

its always good to hear other people opnions and experinces

[forest raptor]

Same goes for me, most of the time, have a good night then, maybe we'll interact again on this channel in the future.

[gusty thistle]

mqybe , we will, u have a good night as well

[forest raptor]

Thank you

[static pivot]

Hello there everyone

[little tapir]

agree. it would be a dystopia.

people may think they are on the right, and that they have the best of qualities (i may do as well), so having more of you means more success, but that's such a bad mistake. without the differences in mindset we may never complete one another, society heavily dysfunctional.

[forest raptor]

We kinda got there yesterday, during the small debate, but wouldn't you say society is already dysfunctional? It may look civilized on the surface, but i don't think it's functional

[little tapir]

not talking about this kind of dysfunction, because in relation to what i am describing, is not as bad. it's a tradeoff, you get to have humans with different colors, but you pay for it with the existence of conflict. and let us think about this, if for example we have everyone be einstein, everyone as smart, and everyone with the same opinoins. where are the lawyers? the doctors? what if einstein hated working as a laborer, where are the laborers? how about if the one whose mindset we share is heavily disagreeable? that would create hell on earth. it's also a problem since my background is in ee and ai, so i will be giving an example here as well (:. in lots of machine learning methods, you create different models with different parameters and seek to find the one that gives you best results. had you initialized all of these models on the same parameters, do you have the same chance of getting the best model? not even close.

[forest raptor]

Yeah to be fair I'm Not trying to Argue in favor of this option, it was just a question, and i agree with it, as much as it's already dysfunctional, it would definitely get worse

But that's why i said what i said yesterday, i think depending on who Gets access to the device, and how long the effects last, it could be very interesting. Lemme see if i can find the msg

[little tapir]

i see

[forest raptor]

But then again, it depends on how the device actually works.
If u could use it for just a brief moment to make the other person experience ur point of view and work towards a more rational Debate, as i just said, it would reduce the pointless headbutting between opinions that at times are just simply not worth considering.
But if the device was active over time, like a lingering effect, then it would simply be a mean to force ur view on others and obtain full consent and agreement on Your opinion that could very well be wrong, basically an alternative version of the nazi agenda.
A device that makes other people see things the exact same way u see them can be either a useful item to increase the quality of communication between opposite extremes, or absolute power over everything, a full mind-fuck that lets you "censor" any thought that's not in line with your view, and it All depends on how long the effects last for, and who is in charge of using it and when.

It was this one

[little tapir]

not an effect that would go tho since the device works on altering neuron connections

[forest raptor]

Ah see, that's why i was afraid yesterday, because i lacked the context of the conversation, nvm then, definitely a bad idea then

Not a device i'd suggest lol

[little tapir]

🤝

that device was just a way for me to tell the greater point. which is that, even if we get the best human, or what we think of as the human with the "best" capabilities (knowing that no single human is the best in all aspects), it would still be so bad to make everyone a copy of him.

[forest raptor]

Ah i see, yeah yesterday i lacked the general context, so i just answered the question moon answered to, thank you for the info

I'd say it's very hard to Argue such a point, it wouldn't go well for sure

[civic reef]

it would be at least more functional without criminals like human trafficers etc, or addicts like alcoholics abusing their families and later their children getting lost in life, because so often they find it very difficult to comprehend the world and society if they were treated poorly in the past, i think

[forest raptor]

Regardless of personal capabilities, not everyone is socially capable as well, u might get a very efficient society that crumbles on a different aspect

[forest raptor]

The problem with this is what blur just said before, i agree with this point, and it was what i was trying to say, but blur is right, the trade off is not in our favor

Because yes, u wouldn't have criminals and such, but there wouldn't be a society evolved enough for You to even understand this, because it would inevitably crumble on itself, everyone would be Good at the exact same thing, which is very good for progress, but since everyone also has the same short comings, one single issue might destroy said society, it wouldn't look good is what I'm getting at, it would be an extremely efficient yet frail society.

[toxic grotto]

I often read Pdf/epub books. Is there an application that I can export the points I highlighted and took notes on the book (I tried Moon+ Reader Pro, ReadEra, Google Play Books, eReader Prestigio, FBReader)?

[little tapir]

you understand my point to an extreme extent, so, ||lets copy you||.
fr tho i would despise a society composed of my mindset, even though i think highly of myself. you'll get a society with no emotion as well. it would not be a life worth living. and all of us fall short at one aspect or another. if no one is there to fill that hole, we are doomed. also, "similar" does not mean "compatible" as i mentioned the "disagreeable person" point earlier.

[forest raptor]

I suppose the "lets copy u" Means u found ur old msg that started the convo, if that's the case ty for that, preciate it.

But yeah, that's definitely the end of the argument, and it's just the undeniable truth, it wouldn't work, not on paper, nor in real application, and ur point about the difference between similar and compatible is very good, it would be an issue

Most of the time you would have conflict even if u had the exact same mindset, because some people are just naturally disagreeable, depending on Your personality you could even be in more conflict than you'd be with a different person.

[little tapir]

exactly

[thorny steeple]

I hate Elon Musk for ruining twitter.

[shut junco]

Twitter was already a hot mess before he came and bought it but yea he hasn't done much to fix any of the issues

[teal crest]

i meet a sentence, which says "a nun on a run".
means, there is a nun (a woman of religious order) who is running.

shouldn't the sentence be "a nun in a run?"

[pearl roost]

maybe noo...its sounds right when its a nun on a run

[teal crest]

so, which one is correct?
"a nun on a run" or "a nun in a run"?

[thorny steeple]

Do u want to leave school because u don't like to be around with people. Or because they don't teach u well

[teal crest]

for what reason that is correct?

[pearl roost]

they dont teach well ...its a expensive schl still teachers are bad

[thorny steeple]

@pearl roost I can't give u any advice because i don't know u and Your bg. So u figure things out on your own.

@pearl roost btw good luck

[pearl roost]

a nun in a run ....in kinds of have the meaning' inside' ... a nun inside a run...it dont make sense ...a nun is running...it has a same meaning as a nun on a run..

One piece

Kkkk

[glad helm]

tamo junto

[vernal crypt]

I would suggest prepping for a Cambridge exam.
Firstly you could test online to see what your levels are for:
Reading/writing/
Listening

There are loads of free materials online to help you prep, but you might consider having a teacher help.
Read!!
Highlight new words
Practice using them

Writing practice too.

[thorny steeple]

Thks mate

I took English classes in elementary school but they weren't good. But I attended private classes which really helped me and the material was all in English and there were conversation classes. In high school I had classes at a much better school, unfortunately it was in another city and I couldn't take private classes because it was a full-time school on some days or there was much homework as is both a technical school and a regular one

I can understand complex speech

But saying is difficult also my accent is very strong as I my state has a very unique one

@vernal crypt are you british?

[vernal crypt]

No, American. I'm an English teacher.

[thorny steeple]

Why Euro role?

You live in Uk?

I use this program and it's really good, they correct the sentences and words when u type/write in English

[lusty axle]

Yea, I used grammarly sometimes but I think it makes me more confused 😅

[ember matrix]

I don't have in mind another program to practice writing

[lusty axle]

I will try to explore it more 🙂

[vernal crypt]

I would start by reading other blogs to get an idea of the structure.
Always keep a dictionary and thesaurus nearby; tools for all writers.
There are other tools that teachers and students use to help with grammar:
A grammar book called Grammar in Use
By
Raymon Murphy
This is a practical guide through English grammar, offering examples and practice.
You're welcome to add me as a friend and share snippets (examples) of your work any time.
Cheers!🌻

[static pivot]

I like you another day

You are very serious and helpful

@split nimbus hello

[toxic plover]

Snippets, I've never heard someone use that word before lol.

[vernal crypt]

Definitely not everyday lingo

[toxic plover]

Nice flex tho lol

You gotta use words that are more ubiquitous, ya know ? UwU

[white gorge]

hey so yall speak american english or

british?

[polar birch]

british obvs

[white gorge]

so no americans in this server?

damn i dont speak british english tho

[forest raptor]

there are people from everywhere, america included

[white gorge]

ok

[forest raptor]

also keep in mind, most foreigners like me, automatically pick up the american accent, since it's the most common

you shouldn't worry about not having a british accent, the difference between american and british english is very minor
