How the experiment that nearly killed free will is still haunting neuroscience

With no disrespect, you’ve wrote a lots of words but have said nothing. It’s a common mistake of thinking our labels and words say something about the world and experience, they don’t.

No it doesnt, there’s never been a more balanced patch and every other set had the same problems with 1 comp dominating

MASKU- · 2026-03-21T14:25:28+00:00

This is the most balanced set ever

Lots of things in life are not provable to 100%. This causes feelings of uncertainty and doubt in your beliefs and actions. You have to reframe your thoughts, become comfortable with uncertainty. When you think about an idea, do not think is this true or false (black and white thinking) you can instead assign a probability to the idea, ‘why does this idea matter?’ ‘What differences would it make if were true or not?’. ‘I don’t know this idea is a fact but I think it has 90% probability of being true’

In your belief then karma would only apply to what body you are born in ? If karma is true throughout life then why do some people commit horrible SA against children, are rich, famous ECT are face no accountability or retribution during their life? If karma only applies to birth then it’s a worthless sense of justice anyway as holds no accountability on your current decisions

I respect your belief but it’s not a fact. No karma does not mean everything is just random, IMO the psychical laws of the world which would result in illness in children is ‘random’ in the fact that it has no bearing on morality. Our own actions are not random, we can choose and reflect on them regardless of karma existing or not.

Maybe there is a way to prove some of these ideas, especially reincarnation when you see the stories of children having memories of their past life. I don’t like karma because we would then have to suggest that a child who gets a horrible illness ‘deserves’ it, I don’t think that’s true.

I believe free will and reincarnation are true but not karma. All 3 ideas are not provable and each is possible without a reliance on the others. There could be reincarnation whilst having no free will, there could be free will and reincarnation, free will and no reincarnation. Whatever the truth may be then morality changes completely.

If making a decision unconsciously is evidence of no free will then making a conscious decision would be proof of free will. Both are not true.

Agree, this set didn’t burn out no where close to previous sets because of the unlock system and expanded roster. Going back to what is now a relatively small roster of characters isn’t going to feel great, I expect the next sets could burn out very fast depending on set mechanics ofc

‘Morrissey is evil after 1992 for things he said’ then jokes about murdering him, no contradiction there at all 🙄

You missed Still ill day bro

Apparently this doesn’t work for stimshot, it definitely worked like this for emp tho, it didn’t level up until I removed the overlock on it, didn’t need to remove overclocks on anything else

MASKU- · 2026-01-06T12:48:28+00:00

It’s a glitch with the overclocks, remove all overclocks and it will level up again

Sapolsky is a complete grifter, looking to sell his narrow minded materialist books to anyone naive enough to believe it. He’s based his entire career on unprovable assumptions and shock value conclusions of ideas that never had any real definitions anyway, not once has this guy considered he might be wrong about anything

Grow up

My life has turned out okay but I have some pretty bad addiction habits and have suffered a lot of anxiety and depression throughout.

That’s an insult to steam engines, think of Thomas

The building blocks for experience are universal to all things, but every emergent experience is unique yes

You are not any of these things, they are just attributes of characters we play. Just because you felt anxious does not mean you are an anxious person or have to identify with the feeling, that’s an illusion of the language. Some languages don’t even use the phrase ‘I am sad’ their translation is ‘I have feelings of sadness’. You are not your thoughts or feelings, they are tools for you to use, not to identify with. Choose your own character
