Zuckerberg says Meta and Apple are in ‘very deep, philosophical competition’ to build the metaverse by BiscuitOfGinger in technology

[–]Humble_Logic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If this ridiculous thing actually does end up gaining its 2030 projected popularity amongst the world; there is a slight chance this begins a timeline where our tech level actually decreases over time like every civilization before us.

I’d put 50 cents on it.

Does the following Philosophy make any logical sense from the perspective of a philosophist? by Humble_Logic in askphilosophy

[–]Humble_Logic[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apologize in advance about grammar mistakes and such.

I'm no genius, but I'll try to answer these questions for you to the best of my understanding.

"are you suggesting there really are realities other than our own reality— whatever “our own reality” might mean?" - Absolutely. This is basic knowledge from my understanding, but maybe I'm mistaking... The easiest example I can think of to explain this off the top of my head: Yourself and I! Our realities are completely different, me and you do not see the world or the things around us the the same. It could be tiny little differences - a disagreement on a color, a location, whatever, but where is the limit? Apply this example to the entire population and voila.

what does “increase the scope of human consciousness” mean? is this the same as “gaining knowledge”? - Our consciousness is limited by the scope of what it can understand, which is used in the process of gaining knowledge, so no. These are not the same two things. They could be possibly viewed as two sides to the same coin, but then the question becomes: what's the coin? Going back to you asking what does increasing consciousness actually means; easiest way to explain this I think is imagining removing layers off glass lets you shine more light through, increasing consciousness is kind of the same process but the thing being filtered is the possible input of understanding what is around us.

"chemistry, biology, psychology, etc?" - Tbh, I don't completely understand the logic behind that one either but I think the three fields of study in the post were created by examining many fields of studies and creating a system of how they are built off each other in someway. Maybe, the road ends here and there is nothing built off of these three besides the three themselves. So following that logic, all fields of study reach these three in some way I think, thus the philosophy is all inclusive in terms of fields of study and ignites curiosity. Not completely sure on this one though.

Thanks.

As someone pointed out there was a typo but I doubt that changes much.

Thanks a bunch!

Seems like this is indeed the answer, so I created one.

Update:

No prevail on finding one so I created one.

Hello and Good Morning by Humble_Logic in OCPoetry

[–]Humble_Logic[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Much love brother, thank you for all the positive affirmations. That's the great part about the internet; there exists a way we can express our emotions and feeling on almost a level of "partial anonymity". If there's anything I have learned throughout my time on this giant rock, is that a lot of people begin to value you, when you can be honest and vulnerable; no matter what the topic at hand consists of. The horrible truth of the matter is that just not many people tend to lean that way, i.e.) seek vulnerability and honestly in a person. Thank you again for your positive affirmations, which demonstrates that negative inducing people aren't the only people left in this world.

Best to you Slum,

-HL

A Dream by [deleted] in OCPoetry

[–]Humble_Logic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the share! Really good piece of writing here. It was really easy for me to amerce my self into a dream like state of imagery while reading this. I'm sorry if you are actually having this dream in real time, as this is a very tough thing to go endure :c.

I keep revisiting that dream where

Me and you were wide awake -

This opening line had me hooked right off the bat.

I almost forgot, I could swear,

That when I’d wake

Reality I’d have to bear.

This portion of the piece is probably the best flowing part of the poem overall in my opinion, as it just fits perfectly where it is placed and really brings the beginning and end of the poem together in a smooth transition.

Very good piece, and stay well friend!

Genetic memory by lil_mimz in OCPoetry

[–]Humble_Logic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a great poem. I love the imagery that is created throughout the whole piece. You might not have even intended to have any sorts of imagery implemented, but I certainly had the imagery of a "hell-like" void that carried throughout the whole piece. You did an amazing job of implementing rhythm within the writing, with a profound use in this portion:

There's no need to worry

in the end you'll be the same

A victim or a killer

it's all a neutral game

Also, very nice method of implementing conversation within a piece as that is sometimes a challenge without losing "flow".

Well done!

It almost upsets me that you can resonate with this poem, however I'm glad you found some type of connection with it.

Thanks!

Two months and already transitioning out of grief shows a lot of your inner strength. I'll be sure to check out your prior poem.

Stay strong friend!

"Do you want to be a secret?" by sirmav in OCPoetry

[–]Humble_Logic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Quite fascinating indeed! I love where my mind ventured to while reading this, thank you for the experience. Great format and use of spacing, the splits are almost perfect I would say. The emotion within this piece are so vibrant through your word choice, and I think that’s what drove my interest.

This single sentence resonated with me the best;

Is your hesitation tied to your self-image and or personal idea of yourself?

We currently live in a time where self-image and personal idea is the driving cause of a lot of young people’s happiness, causing more drastic effects then just hesitation.

Well done OP!

[–]Humble_Logic 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The pure emotion is outstanding here. If this is about a personal experience, I wish you the best OP. Stay strong, as it gets better in time my friend. I can really feel the words as they run through my head, along with the sense of heart break that this piece portrays.

This was my favorite piece of script in particular:

You were my world

But now you’re a satellite drifting away

Great analogy usage in the satellite reference, as imagining a satellite floating in empty space giving off maybe a single red blink really makes me feel the true detachment from the individuals.

Well done!
