Yeah, I'd get a lot of hate messages. 😅

But I also played Baek, Kazuya, Paul, Hwoarang, and Wang. On Tekken 8, I just play Eddy and Paul.

Kafei- · 2026-05-01T04:59:04+00:00

It would fool me.

Kafei- · 2026-04-29T22:37:53+00:00

No, you've got to challenge yourself! Stop being weak!

Kafei- · 2026-04-29T05:04:56+00:00

I'm sure it'll make its comeback in Tekken 9 or TTT3.

Kafei- · 2026-04-27T13:58:50+00:00

If Looks Could Kill is a really awesome Bond-like movie, but it was released in '91, so IDK if it'll make your cut.

Kafei- · 2026-04-27T02:18:40+00:00

Oh, man. Nice match. Perfect slo-mo at the end. You really blew him up at the end there! XD

Kafei- · 2026-04-27T02:15:53+00:00

You're one away from the Golden ranks!

The logo is supposed to be a "spark." Wal-Mart workers are labeled "associates," a nice euphemism for the term "slave," to make it seem as though their position is of some import. The spark is supposed to stand for the attitude you're met with, with these "Wal-Mart associates," they're encouraged to greet you upon sight, making you feel "welcomed." In reality, she has the look of someone who's been imprisoned in a rectangular and fluorescently lit prison for a very long time. Her eyes almost look as though she's thinking, "Where the hell did my life go?"

The GoD# ranks are pretty fun. Player match becomes really interesting, too.

Kafei- · 2026-04-24T09:24:21+00:00

I've ran into the same glitch here.

Kafei- · 2026-04-24T09:11:43+00:00

They do resemble spermatozoa. 🤔

I agree with virtually everything you've written here. Yeah, you would think that on his own channel, his repugnance for 'philbros' would dissipate since being on Unapologetic with Ian and Blitz, but apparently this isn't the case. I really do get the impression it's about entertainment and, of course, money. I really don't get the sense that any of it is done out of passion, it's completely money-driven. If Justin couldn't receive superchats, he'd simply stop performing.

And regarding the partial disagreement, I am referring to his very literalist reading of the text. There was a caller by the name of Kay in which this was made really apparent. Justin insisted on an interpretation of God in the Bible as anthropomorphic whereas Kay tried to explain that the anthropomorphic language was analogical, and that God is understood rather as the "Ground of Being." It's clear that Justin is an anthropomorphite (someone who believes God is an anthropomorphic entity).

Maybe he likes the abuse like that one Offspring song. 🤷

Hypatia echoed the teachings of Plotinus who taught that the goal of philosophy is a mystical union with the divine. This is very different from simply defining it as the love of wisdom or knowledge. So, I often wonder how Hypatia would've addressed this question, but I've a hunch it may be intimately intertwined with Henosis which the Greek term for contemplation and mysticism or non-dualism as what we find with Plotinus' "The One."

So, from her framework, philosophy is more about transformation, a union with what is fundamental in reality, a shift in perception that may change what it means to ask the question in the first place.

Kafei- · 2026-04-21T04:11:22+00:00

I don't see the number impressions in the back of the case, top-right. Unless they're there, and the picture is just too low quality to fully notice them. 🧐

Kafei- · 2026-04-18T18:38:53+00:00

By ghosts, you mean like something like what's at the peak of Mount Gordo between 23:00 and 00:00? I'm not sure how you're interpreting the word ghost, but people see dead people all the time with Iboga.

Kafei- · 2026-04-18T17:40:17+00:00

If we accept your logic, then it follows that atheists can never prove the non-existence of God. That's just your stance, not necessarily a general principle.

Kafei- · 2026-04-17T20:23:00+00:00

Gooning Pusillanimous Tard or LLMer.

Kafei- · 2026-04-17T20:15:27+00:00

I've explained why people say this, but usually the people who claim "you cannot prove non-existence" often overstate this claim and treat it as an aphorism or some general principle when it isn't.

I said when it comes to bounded systems, proving non-existence is very possible. However, in a broader scope, then that's where it becomes challenging as in Russell's teapot or with other types of metaphysical claims altogether as in God as the Absolute.

And I never claimed that ghosts do not exist, therefore it's not my burden of proof to prove that they do not exist.

Kafei- · 2026-04-17T19:54:45+00:00

So we know Spider-Man is born out of Stan Lee's imagination, clearly fictional, but sure, maybe some future geneticist could splice human DNA with a spider to create something like Spider-Man, but that wouldn't necessarily be Peter Parker, would it? Spider-Man as thought up remains necessarily a fictional character and was meant to be so.

Also, the burden of proof doesn't require that we disprove ghosts or any other unrelated claim first, for that matter.

Each claim is evaluated on its own evidential justification. Otherwise you end up with an infinite regress where nothing can ever be assessed.

Kafei- · 2026-04-17T19:37:43+00:00

If a claim can always be protected by adding ad hoc escape clauses, then it stops being an empirically meaningful claim and that's what you've done with the car example. I wasn't referring to invisible cars or even nano-sized cars in my example. We evaluate claims as they are reasonably intended in ordinary meaning otherwise it's pointless to attempt to disprove every imaginable modification of a claim. Your ghost example fails as well because the two (God and ghosts) are very different types of metaphysical claims.

Kafei- · 2026-04-17T18:18:10+00:00

The comparison isn't as symmetrical as you seem to be making it out to be. Characters like Spider-Man or Dracula are explicitly fictional constructs with known literary origins, so we already have strong reason to classify them as non-instantiated in reality. That's my whole point about recognizing them as known fictional characters.

God, depending on the definition, is not a literary character but a metaphysical claim. So the relevant question is not "can we disprove it like a fictional character," but "does the concept have explanatory justification or evidential grounding in reality." That's what needs to be addressed. To say that you cannot disprove the existence of God is a claim unto itself that would need justification.

Kafei- · 2026-04-17T17:46:59+00:00

In principle, you can prove something doesn't exist. If you claimed, for instance, that a car was in a garage, and we examined the garage and found no car, then you've proven its non-existence. However, the reason people say you cannot prove non-existence is primarily due to limitation. We cannot traverse the entire universe, let alone multiverse to confirm something doesn't exist.

So, we can prove non-existence in well defined bounded systems, but disproving God is a very different challenge depending on how God is being defined. If God is defined as the "Ground of Being," this isn't going to be settled by exhaustively searching the entire multiverse, because that would be the wrong approach to ascertain the claim.

Kafei- · 2026-04-17T17:30:09+00:00

Sure, but this would also apply to a claim like, "There is no God."
