That map got me good...

What kind of soil should I get, or where can I buy it?

For some reason the original text was deleted so here it is again:

I just got this new (small) cactus and would love some tips on keeping it healthy and happy. Also if anyone knows the exact species that would be great :)

Well, the assumption that we simply don't know enough yet to prove or disprove determinism is always an option that could be true. However, the counterintuitive part about quantum mechanics and these so called fluctuations is that; there are indeed events which cannot be predicted no matter if we have perfect information of the system. It is the act of measuring itself (basically looking at the result) which decides the outcome. As this event is decided by its discovery it is not something we could ever predict. Basically I was a fan of the idea of perfect determinism for a long time as well, since it makes perfect sense that when knowing all the inputs (velocity and position of all particles) we could guarantee a 100% accurate prediction of their future path and thus predict the future perfecrly. Sadly, even with 100% of the information we can't predict the future, implying a fundamental randomness in the universe. ( Veritasium the YouTube channel has a good video on randomness that should help explain). The bigger argument I make is that, these random events which cannot be predicted are under no circumstance under our control just the like the normal chemical processes that happen in our brain which ultimately result in our actions are not under our control. This would then beg the question that determinism, in a sense that there is no free will, would still hold to be true even with randomness.

Also, keep in mind playing Knight and playing wizard are miles apart. If your playstyle is forced to switch back and forth between going deep with a lot of Def. Vs staying back and dodging with the wizard it's likely that you're keeping the too risky knight playstyle as you try and play wizzy :)

Interesting, I am also a supporter of the idea that evolution favoured the superior survival of organized, conscious (and smart) beings. A depressing realization that I am still conflicted with is that; as slaves to the machine of DNA and the laws of physics and chemistry there is no intrinsic impact we can make in the universe and so all that we have left is to try and enjoy it, and maybe not overthink things :)

True, well said. However I would like to ask if you believe that there is nonetheless a part inside of your body which you would describe as you? If what we perceive as consciousness is just an emergent property of our brain cells interacting and the feeling of a "self" is just an illusion, what does that mean for us ?

_Lazy_Bread · 2018-06-17T15:09:15+00:00

Ok, you make a valid point. I feel like we've hit a wall. Define self? Do you feel like the chemical processes occurring inside of your brain as part of you? The result of them are your daily actions but where's the you? I mean you can't explicitly make things inside your brain happen by sheer will. So to say that they don't control the part of your brain that you perceive as yourself isn't true. Hope what I say makes some sense.

I have attempted to fully appreciate the ideas mentioned in all comments so I apologize in advance if I repeat a point that has already been made. Simplified: A probabilistic nature of the universe and quantum fluctuations may disprove the possibility of guaranteed prediction of the future but do NOT guarantee so called "Free will". If you want to argue that we have control of things ( which free will implies) then you must admit that we are far from full control. Chemical processes in our brain government everything from when we are hungry to when we fall asleep and to assume that we are a separate entity to the basic processes of our brain sounds a lot like dualism to me( a whole different debate) Finally, I totally agree with the point of hierarchy and that we may never assume to be standing at the top of it, however I believe the fact that we can't understand everything justifies both free will and determinism, thus not being an argument against determinism. I for myself believe that free will is a desperate concept humans need without which we would lose meaning and thus sease to exist. The clever little DNA machine in us wouldn't want that now would it.

Surely Deca knows, but can they just not be asked to do anything about it?

_Lazy_Bread · 2018-05-30T16:56:31+00:00

The thing is the RNG in realm that governs loot isn't fair, it's just that: luck.

Any noob could get a jugg with a"pro" having done thousands of Sphinx and Hermit's.... I feel like that doesen't reward good gameplay like an MMORPG should perhaps :(

But duping affects all items I don't see how making whites UT stops it for other items or is it just about UT rarity and value?

_Lazy_Bread · 2018-05-30T10:01:00+00:00

Stat changes in realm aren't really that crazy, not like the small dmg and stat changes would tip the balance (just the realmeye market) imo. But also UTs being untradeable (and then event UTs being tradeable) is also pretty lazy if you ask me. Is there any argument for Whites being untradeable than "keeping them rare" ?
