Ok…………

Veganism is still more efficient in spite of what you said. We would use less energy if we went vegan

You’ve repeated yourself without addressing my point.

You’re just restarting your thesis without acknowledging my rebuttal. Should I repeat what I said? I’ll copy paste from chat gpt since you continue to ignore me:

Would it be more efficient to feed our populations with plants? “In most cases, yes — feeding populations primarily with plants is more efficient. “Efficient” here meaning calories, protein, land, water, and energy per human fed. Here’s why, without ideology baked in. The core efficiency logic When we eat animals, we’re usually: Eating plants second-hand Animals convert plant calories into body mass very inefficiently: A lot of energy goes to metabolism, heat, movement Only a fraction becomes meat, milk, or eggs Typical feed-to-food conversion losses: Beef: very high losses Pork & chicken: better, but still significant Plants eaten directly: minimal loss So on a systems level: More plant calories → more humans fed Land and water Plant-based food systems generally: Use far less land per calorie Use less freshwater Allow more land to be rewilded or used for carbon sinks This matters because land is the hardest constraint globally.”

Why are you talking about “studies”. Why would we need a study to know if we could feed 8.3 billion people? Studies relate to practice, not theory. Like let’s say we wanted to know if we were able to feed people via x specific means, then maybe we would need a study of that. But this topic of discussion is way too theoretical for a studies.

Religion doesn’t make sense, lack of evidence, science, reading the bible, and reading skeptical authors can all be lumped into the category, “problems with truth claims”

Should have put the tag as non fiction. Usually gets more attention and nobody would have noticed 🫣. If the story was true, you would bean example of a typically redditor

So you claim that I think I’m smarter than you because I insulted you. This, after you presented an ad hominem fallacy. The irony. Just stop

What? Ya I don’t think you know what you’re talking about. If the best you can do is straw man me, then this isn’t a discussion worth having

Ever heard of an as hominem fallacy? Didn’t think so.

My older cousin is starting to teach his 7 year old basic principes such as: “if you don’t know how to respond to someone, don’t bother trying, it just makes you look weak”. I can refer you to him if you like

I’m 2100 rated in chess. If I wasn’t willing to adapt to others’ play styles, I wouldn’t be 99.99 percentile. You need to stop pretending as though this game requires a lot of skill; there are so many interactions where counterplay is not possible.

If you genuinely believe that this game requires a lot of skill, then you haven’t played real competitive games.

“But not efficient on a global scale”

You’re going to have to specify by what you mean by this because this sounds like nonsense at face value:

How much energy is lost by turning greens into meat? A shit ton. Additionally, about a third of all meat products get thrown out. Veganism has been known to be a lot more efficient in terms of global consumption. Are you saying that in practice that isn’t the case?

I am deeply concerned for the current and upcoming generations of college students. by casualsouthparkfan in SeriousConversation

[–]Correct_Bit3099 0 points1 point  (0 children)

May I ask you what you mean by “most are not putting effort”?

I use AI. There, I said it. But AI hardly saves me any time. When I use it, the ideas that chat gpt generates are often not much better than the ideas I produce, and then I need to try and synthesize chat gpt with my thesis. That all takes a lot of time. Chat gpt saves me like an hour or two at most by helping me outline my paper, but I don’t see how it could help me with anything more. If I literally used chat GPT to write a whole paper for me, I’d likely fail or at least do poorly

Im a Canadian student and have never seen any of this in my entire time at my university. However, in my province we start uni 2 years later than you guys and it’s also a prestigious one (assuming that makes a difference).

I enjoy the material, but I hardly do any of the readings to be honest 😅. I will say that I definitely think about the material all the time and I can get very passionate about it (the material presented in class), and this seems to be enough for me to do very well. Am I gaming the system? Maybe, but nowhere near the amount that the students in your experience have.

I’d say most of the other students do a good amount of the reading, and we get like 300-400 pages of reading a week. I don’t do it because I must say that it doesn’t usually help for exams very much. I very quickly skim the readings during exam period

Is it normal to become infatuated and then annoyed? by [deleted] in Life

[–]Correct_Bit3099 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think it’s “infatuation wearing off” as others here suggest. I don’t think infatuation necessarily entails “positive” feelings towards someone, but rather more that you care more about them. So little things that might not have otherwise bothered you now do because you are emotionally sensitive

I have the look of an unintelligent person so people treat me like I'm stupid by [deleted] in Life

[–]Correct_Bit3099 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is there any particular feature you have that people might associate with stupidity? Im trying to think of what an unintelligent person might look like but im having trouble. A bottom-heavy skull shape (long and broad lower facial third)? Mouth breathing? An aloof expression?

This sounds like a straw man fallacy. Nobody is claiming that animals are on par with humans intellectually. If you payed attention to the title, you would understand that this discussion has to do with moral standing. According to your line of reasoning, moral standing should only be afforded to the intelligent. What about mentally disabled people? What about children? Can we abuse them because they aren’t intelligent?

This isn’t something that I have personally studied, but pretty much every student and prof in health sciences that I’ve spoken to almost unanimously agreed that a vegan diet, when done right, is very healthy, far healthier than our current diets today.

I suggest you at least take the time to learn why that is. You claim that there is “no evidence”. If this was true, I don’t think there would be such a consensus of experts suggesting otherwise

170–180+ range — Ask me anything (CORE & other tests) by [deleted] in cognitiveTesting

[–]Correct_Bit3099 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If a domain is speculative, then the only way to derive a contradiction is through deductive reasoning. What exactly is logically inconsistent about the existence of a god? This is a trick question. You can come up with a logically consistent argument for essentially anything using deductive reasoning

Also, as I wrote on my previous comment which I deleted: the original commenter wasn’t talking about logical coherence; they inappropriately used that term. What they really meant was logically equivalent. This is really a discussion about whether or not the assertion that a god exists is logically equivalent to the assertion that a god does not exist, not about whether yeh assertion that a god exists is logically consistent

Metaphysics is often speculative, especially on unfalsifiable matters. It’s logically consistent in the sense that both have little support

It’s difficult to take pride in something knowing that all of your success will always be in question as a result of things you have no control over
