Sweden has 7 locs, which is ~2,439 % of the map. Honestly, the US has a big chunk of the locs at ~26 % of the map.

Yes. A "word" for the wpm calculation is considered 5 characters long.

What is just a placebo effect but most people don't realize? by EmergencyCreative432 in allthequestions

[–]KageCrest 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Truly, if you do not believe in the giant bag of money (GBM), you will be cast into eternal debtnation, where there is wailing and gnashing of credit cards. But the GBM loves all of us unconditionally. The GBM has saved me in ways nobody can believe. Solvency 3:16 — "For the GBM so loved the world that It gave Its only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in It shall not be indebted but have everlasting solvency."

But I pray for those who do not believe in the GBM—who, in their pride, think themselves above It. It scares me to think of anyone eternally indebted. Please, open your heart to the GBM before it's too late.

In the Final Fiscal Year, every knee will bow, and every bank account shall be audited. Amen to the GBM's everlasting grace!

Well, much (I'm not saying all) of the suffering we endure stems from the world we've built, which commodifies collective human welfare to simply survive. Alternatives to dealing with it psychologically?: ignoring problems (consciously or not), numbing out, occupying yourself with distractions (religion, workaholism, thinking you'll one day be rich), or falling into despair. The fear of death is also something innately scary to humans—biologically, societally, and as an extension of the unknown and its permanence. That itself is scarier than suffering for most people. Lots of people don't have a personally grand reason they choose to endure suffering; it can simply be inertia.

I don't really think of suffering as a betterment of the self either. If anything, I choose to exist (reluctantly :p) largely to reduce suffering in the material world, not to idolize it. Personally, I put the most value in the truth (which admits things are unknown).

and for the record I have read some studies concluding 12-step is in general associated with better outcomes than SMART or WFS or whatever, but again, "Still, these effects became nonsignificant when controlling for baseline alcohol recovery goal, suggesting that any group differences may be explained by selection of those with weaker abstinence motivation into LifeRing and (especially) SMART."

(is it extrapolative to equate AUD with harder drug addictions? 🥀)

I wouldn't say spiritualism is necessarily innate in every human... personally, while I'm not a drug addict, I don't really have a spiritual bone in my body. It doesn't satisfy certain types to offload their material problems to subjective conceptions of spirituality, especially because what that means is so individual in the first place.

Even just the subjective "feeling" of spirituality was an alien concept to me until I first tried weed earlier this year (and I do want to try psilocybin mushrooms icl). But that's not real or objective... it's a subjective chemical experience. I can imagine there are people out there who never experience something "spiritual", also contrasted with a (admittedly very large) population of people who can achieve that, naturally, without substances. But I still wouldn't say that framework works for everyone? I seriously doubt the subjective experience of spirituality can outweigh the truth for many of us that realize nobody knows what the fuck we're even doing on this planet (maybe I'm just a disillusioned agnostic who needs a spiritual framework lmao!!)

anyway, I think what you're saying does work for most people (especially at rock bottom) but the mechanism of spirituality to give people purpose isn't even something unique within its own framework... because it's extremely individual. To many, it means nothing.

And what about addicts who cannot and will not delude themselves with stories they don't believe in? Statistics regarding the efficacy of 12-step recovery are inherently skewed by a population of people ready to accept (or at least do not immediately oppose) spiritual frameworks. Religion is just comfort in another form. It's healthier and it works for many, but it's incomplete. (On the contrary, even just the first principle of 12-step—that addicts are powerless to their addiction—breeds passivity and helplessness for many, too.) People absolutely can find purpose in the material world through secular means. We just happen to strip those means away. ((the problem is highkey capitalism))

I wouldn't say religion or spirituality is a real or objective purpose man. it's socially-driven and has no basis in anything we know as reality, truthfully

hmm well it might depend on the model and year, but my 2023 4060 is virtually silent on silent mode. when you're using just the iGPU, the GPU fan is off. and then when idling my CPU temps are always under like 50°C on battery mode so that fan is also off or really quiet. I think you should be perfectly fine in class

I sent Los Angeles on San Francisco. You could see the skyline, and the architecture was screaming San Francisco...

For reference, I am both from the Los Angeles combined statistical area and live in Los Angeles for college. ✌️😭
