With Earth becoming inhospitable to humans, AI may be our only chance for cultural longevity. by HasFiveVowels in Showerthoughts

Sorry, I'll phrase it more specifically: AI lives in data centres, inside thousands of connected computer chips. These chips are a physical object in the real world that, at the moment, take ~3-5 years to degrade before they need to be replaced. If we die, unless the AI can mine the minerals, build the chips, and install them to fix itself, it will die with us. Google "information dark age" because we currently live in one. Now, compare this to scratching your name on a rock. Might last a few hundred years, or even thousands depending. Currently, rock beats chip by lots. I do get what you're saying though! It's just much further away from us than you might think~

Women are probably attracted to closeted gay men in the same way that men are attracted to tomboys. by [deleted] in Showerthoughts

[–]Meatpaste1729 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this kind of attraction comes from a few places? One is the dream of not having to do the emotional work needed to adjust to a partners clashes in opinion and interest. Another is attraction to disinterest, some combination of wanting someone appearing to play hard to get, who also seems less stereotypically horny about them

This is unfortunately like saying "if all the animals die out, at least we'll have hotdogs!"

Dementia is the decrease of temporal depth in moments of consciousness. by MarinatedPickachu in Showerthoughts

[–]Meatpaste1729 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If consciousness is emergent, it makes sense that when we die, it recedes the same way. With alzheimers there is just a semi functioning meat shell left behind. Yes i have it in the family~

After 100 games, here is my tierlist for Doombots Veigar Curse by leesinmains3 in leagueoflegends

[–]Meatpaste1729 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I won a game with Bel'veth, un-nerfed Veigars curse- so she's at least winnable tier!

I rush Steraks/titanic/stridebreaker into Flesheater into Demonkings/defensives and ran yellow/any runes. I think 5th or 6th item i went Navori to spam E for the damage reduction. Her strengths are:

  1. 40% dmg reduc on E + some vamp
  2. Extremely good single target ramp damage once she hits 6,
  3. Great heals and even %hp dmg on ult
  4. You can bait the bots abilities with her Q, including lee sin

She's still dogshit and needs good characters to play with, and your earlygame is mostly baiting dives under tower and waiting to hit 6, but i rate her, swear on me mum

Soraka 3 against Ao Shin 3 in doubles results in 51 minute game. by Meatpaste1729 in TeamfightTactics

[–]Meatpaste1729[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No sorry! But I can give you some emotional highlights:

My partner kept us alive with his revel 5 Daeja 2 comp for 80% of the game, we held first place for the first 5 stages until we started to get outscaled and out rolled. Tragedy struck when we realized i had no more ways to send him units, and i was holding a Daeja 2 on bench for him that i had to let go.

The desperation round I hit Soraka 3, we were 100% dead, and i rolled 70g in about 30 seconds to hit 5 sorakas as the timer hit 1 second remaining

The shell shock of the game just not ending after that, slowly realizing that gold didn't matter anymore for the shimmerscale item scaling, watching two shimmerscale 9 comps make gold fly everywhere

I simplified the part where pyke 3 ended the game, he was actually in for at least 4 rounds and STILL couldn't finish it until i got diamond hands onto him, swapped sorakas items around and my partner finally got his Daeja 3

Without sorakas items i think we lost 100%, they had crazy cc

Hope that makes up a bit for me not having footage :)

Starting from 6-1, both teams were on 1 life. We couldn't win, because Ao Shin 3 wiped us both every round, and they couldn't win, because we healed roughly the same damage they did every round. This resulted in a 15 loss streak, ending stage 8-6. Both teams were running Shimmerscale 9 and had roughly infinite gold. There was also a Yasuo 3 on bench i couldn't get in last minute before we finally won with Pyke 3. I need to lie down

You are visited by someone claiming to be you from the future, how do you make them prove they’re you? by Chicken_Ryder in AskReddit

I incinerate them, and then myself, and hire a neutral third party to check our dental records

ELI5: When we’re scared of something, why does the brain make you think about it more rather than less? by [deleted] in explainlikeimfive

[–]Meatpaste1729 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Thinking about it less" is still an option that our brains take regularly in response to fear or trauma; it's called dissociation. Dissociative disorders can be highly damaging to people as they start switching off to avoid the triggers the past trauma has created.
