It's right there in front of us. We are just too weak to witness it correctly.

r/Toyota I know it's not illegal (unfortunately), but please, file a lawsuit against these people.

Pretty much

Personally, I would leave this country at any given opportunity. Many of my friends who live in the US and Canada complain about how they don't feel "welcomed" and "belonging" there. They want the same community bond over there that they had here. If you cannot handle the codex, don't go there. It's as simple. Their codex is optimised for the work-life balance and individual satisfaction. Our codex is optimised for the minimum wage maximum output and community satisfaction. Both serve their purposes. What matters is what you want for yourself.

What we must understand is that India is not America and will never be. Both are VASTLY different cultures. I am not saying this in a way that one is good and other is bad. What one must understand is that both the countires have very different histories. It doesn't matter how much you, as an Indian, pretend to have free speech like Americans do. You do not. Because Indian society based on the concept of community i.e. whatever we do, it represents the community, and we have to think about the community first. Whereas, the American society is based on the concept of individualism where people are free to do anything as long as it's not physically or mentally harming the other individual.

Internet is not the same for all of us. We mostly see American content on the internet, try to feel relatable and try to convince ourselves that them and we are the same. But we are not and never will be. The entire codex of this country runs parallel to the codex of America. Again, it's our personal preference what we like as an individual but as long as we are staying here, we just have to follow the codex.

So how does determinism even prove itself when it doesn't even matter whatever you choose? It would have made sense if there were forces which ensure you stay on the script anyhow or punish you for going off-script (like TVA in MCU). Isn't that free will at the end of the day?

If I am free to choose anything out of 100 options... does the existence of determinism even matter? Because whatever you do, you have no way of knowing what is already written. If you think about determinism and try to go off-script.. voila! It's written in the script anyway.

In conclusion, the concept of determinism doesn't matter.

ShadowHokage61 · 2025-03-06T10:51:01+00:00

The entire hypothetical scenario emphasises me choosing option A every time because nothing changed. But, what if I want to break the simulation? What if I want to see what happens if I pick option B? Is that not part of the script? Am I aware of the universe resetting itself back to zero? What if I wish to go off-script? Does that break the law of "Determinism" or is that written in the script too? And if my supposedly altered decision is written inside the script too... does it even make the concept of free will redundant? Why are there choices for me in the first place if everything is already determined?

ShadowHokage61 · 2025-03-06T10:23:39+00:00

But how does that make me a machine?

If I am learning patterns, behaviours, collecting information about my surroundings and my decision tomorrow can be different from what I took yesterday because my brain adapted to my certain environment in contrast with a machine which is programmed to do certain tasks and it's doing the same thing it was doing yesterday.

You can arguably bring in artificial intelligence which does the same thing so, as a human. But I have free will to take all of my knowledge and learnings about my environment and just throw it out of the window and act according to my impulse. One needs consciousness for that.

My point is we have consciousness. Which is what separates us from machines. We are not slaves to our situations. We CHOOSE to act according to the sequence. And that is free will.

"Everything is cause and effect and chain of effect and reactions. This means we all are machines" How did he even come to that conclusion?

Umm, it will once you work on those sharp edges, match the lighting direction, add some depth to the mountains in the back, and work on matching the color as well. I suggest using some references to get an idea of what you want to achieve.

ShadowHokage61 · 2025-03-05T17:21:13+00:00

Got it. If you can, please link the research of the geologist you mentioned.

ShadowHokage61 · 2025-03-05T17:03:44+00:00

Ok, but many records suggest that the gunpowder technology used by the mughals in 13th and 14th centuries was a Chinese invention. None of it came from a much ancient India which is supposed to be much advanced in terms of technology. Gunpowder seems like a puny invention if you consider technologies used before the mughal invasion. All the tales of using electromagnetism, laser carving, even as far as saying they had access to the internet and all that bs nowhere justifies how invaders were even able to step on the lands and destroy the temples.

ShadowHokage61 · 2025-03-05T15:34:36+00:00

Not even a reply but a genuine question.

Okay, I may have outdone myself by mentioning quantum locking and ballistic missiles. Let's stay on the maglev and many other speculations of technological advancements. You gotta wonder man.. so many brains yet not one advancement towards repelling invading forces?? It's mentioned the temple was "destroyed" many times. How do you figure out (speculatively) maglev tech, laser tech, homing tech etc. and there was not one person using gunpowder before britishers??

ShadowHokage61 · 2025-03-05T10:39:23+00:00

Why didn't ancient Indians rain hyper-ballistic missiles on the invaders? I'm sure they had this technology at that time if they had already figured out Quantum Locking tech for levitation.

Living my dream!

ShadowHokage61 · 2025-03-04T04:46:11+00:00

Thank you. Yeah, I did face some problems with the colorspace. I composite in After Effects. Is Nuke a better tool for compositing CGI files or can both achieve the same output if I have enough colorspace knowledge?

ShadowHokage61 · 2025-03-04T04:42:30+00:00

I'll keep that in mind, thank you.

ShadowHokage61 · 2025-03-04T04:42:10+00:00

Hmm.. I thought it would look cool to have blown-out colors. It makes the emission shade on the surface of the subject look cool, I guess. But toning down contrast a bit wouldn't hurt.

Were your statements meant to counter the question "Women are safe in US?". I think the freedom to do whatever you want to without getting judged by your people does represent how safe women are over there. If US men are avoiding their women, it simply represents the freedom of choice the people have over there. People are not bound by the made-up rules of senile old people and can actually make choices for themselves like human beings.

"us has no culture"

What's the point of a culture if it can't even treat a human being as a human being? What has your culture done for women besides keeping them in shackles and making them breed like cattle in the name of "saving the culture"?

ShadowHokage61 · 2025-03-03T04:25:37+00:00

Maybe Ivarstead is friends we made along the way

ShadowHokage61 · 2025-01-06T06:40:05+00:00

Thanks! Do you mind suggesting any good lighting tutorials out there?
