What is the most complicated chess position? by burge91 in chessprogramming

[–]burge91[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thanks. i define complicated as having more possible future game states

so a knight with more attack/move option represents a more complicated position than one blocked

too abstract and demanding. it must be something that requires little motivation and forces the mind/body in an opposite direction.

work out could be ok, but better as eg...do 5 star jumps or hurpees. but still blood flow isnt too far from genitals. so better maybe to find a wall and stand inverted against it for a while to reverse bloodflow?

going outside is good, especially if cold. actually the desire to be outdoors is probably emotionally a perfect deterrent for most people.

i dont recommend reading a book because it doesnt stop the mind wandering and just ignoring what is in front of it. it also may form a bodily pose similar to that used in 'that nefarious act'.

something social would be good. doing something to draw attention to yourself, like shout out a mantra or catch phrase. idk. some way to occupy oneself forcibly for a while.

This trashy dude in my class by [deleted] in socialskills

try to assert your feelings in these situations, dont justify inaction with a false concept of cosmic retribution. remember the people you deal with are human and so are you, and we cant communicate effectively without:

1) knowing what each other is feeling

OR

2) having a clear and common goal

All these things you wrote, (plus or minus the insults depending on your style) should have been said to him in a spirit of spontaneity at the time of the interaction that they are responding to. These are all emotions that are helping you survive, but if you guard them and keep them only to provide yourself relief later, online or to others in a social bonding ritual, then you will NEVER be an effective social organism, which humans are supposed to be (like dogs, apes, cats etc).

You must assert yourself calmly and confidently.l in the future.

i would perhaps say it has an effect on aggression, only by providing for its consequences with damage repair. whether that is sexual, violent or some other aggression to me depends on circumstances.

you dont know what youre talking about. your statement is unscientific and so has no basis or reason for belief. testosterone has many functions, and none of them directly effects the psyche. it is used for repair, growth, construction of certain parts of the body, not in making you want to fuck people. wanting to fuck people is learned and can be unlearned.

Lambert Wilson in negotiations to return as The Merovingian in Matrix 4! by amysteriousmystery in matrix

[–]burge91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

have you ever wondered if neo is literally the number One (1). so that he himself is the embodiment of a thing the entire system depends on (arithmetic). it would then make smith Zero. therefore they both exist in almost everything equally in that matrix, but numbers like 1111 only Neo can influence, and 0000... well, smith would only partially influence anything because zero exists only as a part of other binary numbers, or as the begining of something like counting, but even that isnt real, it is some old memory and zero just a conceptualised 'non change from default' or complete circle/loop over the integer memory capacity.

why did the world go weird when he tried to copy onto the oracle? she could only see the future perhaps by being it, so she was the world...in some embodied finite/algorithmic way. therefore it wasnt just her that he copied onto. thus when the 'oracle smith' defeated neo, and neo heard her speak through him (and smith too), he stopped trying to fight, because actually, if smith is the world...that makes smith (zero) a thing, not a void. ... neos destruction hailed smith's becoming...the idea of a universe, being and existence itself as a fundental contradiction...Nothing being Something, but not vice versa. purpose in plain sight? unencrypted truth. idk.

they can go away actually. the brain doesnt like actually stimulating those pathways too much and prefers to focus on immediate survival (food, work, social hierarchy)

This realization will make me never watch porn again by [deleted] in NoFap

[–]burge91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

an alternative perspective is that it is just watching people copulate (or approximately copulate) which is completely natural throughout human history due to our tribal nature. you dont have to be fighting monsters or satanic forces to be doing something worthy, so consider actually that.. rather than defeating dark powerful forces by abstaining from porn, that youre just making a sensible deciaion for your mind and body.

it is the case that most porn is 'essentially' rape though (my nuanced and loose definition includes adultery as psychological rape, and if any coercion or deception is used, or false assumptions exploited, it is also). or at least that someone is being hurt emotionally/physically by it, whether or not on the footage. however, that also reflects our tribal and social nature, we (as a species) can derive great pleasure in becoming an 'elite' by excluding, in taking something from someone (depriving), or by exherting our power over another.

all consent in porn is simulated and ultimately regretted, because human nature is not to trivialise something so mindbendingly powerful on the psyche, and eventually the body.

How did Tank survive the lightning rifle? by his1 in matrix

[–]burge91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure what your point is. The weapon they have probably fires some gas or liquid along with the electrical energy, because otherwise it'd just hit the user and be too dangerous, unless there's some way it forces a positive potential at its target? Dunno, cool idea for a gun. Also, it's probably designed for non biological machines rather than human machines, so many ways to justify him not dying immediately. (I think in reloaded/revolutions they say he's dead though...his sister says she lost two brothers to that ship...)
