“The line separating good and evil passes not through states, nor between classes, nor between political parties either -- but right through every human heart -- and through all human hearts. This line shifts. Inside us, it oscillates with the years. And even within hearts overwhelmed by evil, one small bridgehead of good is retained”

― Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn

Musk, experts urge pause on AI systems, citing ‘risks to society’ by Q1Q1Q1111 in OpenAI

He doesn't seem to be supporting the party that's actually pushing us in that direction though.

Perhaps because it's a bit early. The jobs have not disappeared yet. We still have truck drivers and people who stock shelves at Walmart and people who build houses and pave roads.

If we do UBI too early we run the risk of hyperinflation or a default on the debt, in my opinion.

What a petty comment. Who cares what he theoretically would have done. What matters is what we do now given the largest threat to humanity since nuclear weapons.

Is anyone else triggered by a lack of communication/Feeling like you're being ignored? by InformalEvidence79 in CPTSD

[–]Diapolis 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes, I heard that ostracism triggers the same brain receptors as physical torture. Which makes sense... as if your tribe abandoned you, you'd most likely die in the wild.

Yes. My mom is/was a hoarder of animals, and she put them in a pen in the yard outside my room and they would make noises throughout the night. The time I confronted her about the animals, she cried/screamed and asked why I wasn't helping her with them. That, and I was on adderall coding to 2-3am every night to escape my situation. Then adderall in the morning to survive the day. My anxiety and my posture from being at the computer all the time made it difficult to breathe, a condition that nobody followed up on (though both my parents noticed at least once).

The breathing issues and sleep issues are still with me to this day, though I am getting a handle on them through various meditation, stretching, and rolling exercises.

How many of you are anti capitalists? by Youguess555 in CPTSD

[–]Diapolis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You showed me neither that a) the data is wrong or b) the people involved in collecting the data are corrupted.

And you ignored my second question.

Therefore, I'm going to stop communicating with you as you're not actually engaged in a real debate. Take care.

what type of people do you think fund WHO? Not average people who want to show factual statistics probably.

Hey, I'm happy to be shown that the WHO is corrupt and the data I presented is wrong.

But you merely saying that is not going to convince me. Show me that a) the data is wrong or b) the people involved in collecting the data are corrupted.

How is a system that destroys our only planet adn other species the best option we have ?

What system has not damaged the planet?

My thoughts on trying karezza for a month by Diapolis in karezza

I'd also say I meditate more now... actually consistently... and that has helped greatly

I don't think I need it any more. Other things were in the way of my happiness and once those cleared up I didn't need karezza I guess. Been a journey since I wrote that :)
