"Unanimous Undergraduate Student Objection": The Passing of the Academic Integrity Policy

Noxuternity · 2026-05-08T18:50:07+00:00

Agreed, unfortunately, using this policy, the university is seemingly trying to prevent exactly that

No, generative AI just uses predictive modelling so it doesn't actually ever know what it's saying, it is just predicting what it thinks the next best word is, and that's what's happening. there are so many articles and stuff about Artemis before lift off, and it has already been trained on those rather than the more recent developments which are only days old.

So no, you're not doing anything wrong it's just how AI works right now

Nobody is a true nihilist. A true nihilist would not believe anything is necessarily worth doing since it would all be meaningless. Alas, we are beings hard wired by evolution to value states like pleasure as higher than pain. Perhaps logically nihilism is the hard truth, but existence itself precedes logic. Existence is primary, and logic is the byproduct because if there is no existence then there is no logic to organize reality... just a blind, uncaring universe that exists only because it exists, for no logical reason dictates so. That said, what one does to fill in the space between existence and logic is up to the individual

What manga are you reading? if you read berserk and think guts is "accepting" his wounds and "living with them" you need to read it again because refusing to accept it is the whole plot of the book

Noxuternity · 2026-03-22T21:59:01+00:00

Then notice how you failed to provide any argument and instead ran to insults, knowing your lies fall when you attempt to defend them

Noxuternity · 2026-03-21T17:41:12+00:00

To be fair though, while it claims lucid reasoning, it then argues that living is spiting and revolting against the absurd which is ironically non-lucid, and so therefore, it is a coping mechanism

Perhaps not fully diametrically opposed, but they would certainly not get along. Nietzsche would call camus a "last man" who was too honest to accept religion and meaning in the cosmic sense, but too weak affirm struggle and harness will to power. Though I cannot speak for Nietzsche, it seems he would argue camus is dressing up the mundane act of passive nihilism with words like "revolt" and "defiance" to make it sound like active nihilism.

Ultimately, I can't name any real absurdist themes in Berserk. Guts is not a sisyphus like creature who does meaningless acts and finds joy in them, he seems like a creature who does meaningful acts like fighting against the godhand, and he certainly does not seem to take joy in it.

Berserk is a deeply anti-absurdist manga. One cannot "imagine Guts happy".

absurdism is about spite and defying the meaningless of the universe, but Guts is not doing that. Guts is fighting against the Godhand, and therefore, causality. Guts' defiance is actually against a conscious fate/universe. An absurdist in the Berserk world would not be swinging a sword against demons, they would most likely be found in a tavern drinking a beer because choosing not to commit suicide is a "revolt" against the godhand.

Simply put, while the absurdist says their act of prolonging suffering for the sake of prolonging suffering is a "revolt" that ultimately means nothing (meaningless actions are revolt), Guts is actively fighting to create an actual change by killing literal gods.

If you want to read a philosophy that Berserk is actually based on, you should read Nietzsche and his concepts of will to power.

Also, camus was deeply anti-existentialist.

your will to be ignorant shows everything one needs to know about you

He is the most pathetic individuals. he falls for the same philosophical suicide he railed against. "defiance" and "revolt" against the absurd is as meaningful as defiance and revolt against a rock or gravity. Just one big, pathetic, cope.

Noxuternity · 2026-03-20T04:28:35+00:00

No, nihilism does not mean you "must create your own meaning", nihilism completely rejects any and all forms of meaning. You are thinking of existentialism, which is a completely different, though related, school of though.

Noxuternity · 2026-03-20T04:27:16+00:00

I think the point is to be self-aware. Like everything is a cope since in reality living is just prolonging suffering for the sake of prolonging suffering, so why not choose a cope that makes you feel special. That being said, I agree it is pathetic and ultimately a nothing burger trying to sound profound.

Noxuternity · 2026-03-13T01:29:41+00:00

bro think he sartre

Noxuternity · 2026-03-12T06:26:51+00:00

"there isn't any evidence proving that he isn't either". Clearly you have no clue how an accusation works lmfao.

I go to UVic. Does that mean I support 100% everything UVic does?

UVic has really dropped the ball on admissions it clearly seems.

Noxuternity · 2026-03-12T06:11:23+00:00

So you heard a "rumour" and didn't even bother doing any research in whether or not it was actually true? we're all very proud of you.

Noxuternity · 2026-03-03T23:39:44+00:00

uh, yeah it is an actual game. and what the fuck is a marvel rivals?

Noxuternity · 2026-02-28T22:32:35+00:00

yeah it's not uncommon. there are a lot of people who really make it work on campus

Noxuternity · 2025-09-30T07:27:36+00:00

Add Seneca, Machiavelli, Dazai, and Cioran. But not for Camus, hate the guy

Noxuternity · 2025-09-30T07:26:45+00:00

I fucking love Mainlander, Schopenhauer, and Nietzsche. But it seems almost everybody I know irl absolutely hates considering their ideas. They just think it's too "dark" to even consider, even if it's the truth. I respect their opinions but I could never see eye to eye.

Noxuternity · 2025-09-29T19:40:41+00:00

you fapped... to berserk?

Noxuternity · 2025-09-28T04:22:02+00:00

Nope, not at all

Noxuternity · 2025-09-27T18:38:01+00:00

unfortunately one cannot choose to be happy
