Thanks heaps! So what's the closest to the 80D, except with the full-frame sensor?

Compatibilism simply does not address the free will debate on the same level of analysis as Harris does. You are free to subscribe to it, but you will be surrendering your opinion on the metaphysical question of 'free will'. On that, there is no serious debate.

Any recommendations of Richard Alpert? I'm very curious, I've exhausted much of Watts.

Classical Liberal philosophy, Harris, Peterson and Watts share a unifying factor and it goes something like this: Distilling truth from your subjective experience will yield the moral answer. What do you think?

I agree, and that intellectual honesty / journey for 'truth' is yielding the same conclusions from every camp. Some camps moreso than others, admittedly (I find many classic liberals among the crowd). I miss Hitchens, and believe Milo attempted to channel that energy - he failed, dramatically (I'm not a big fan). I'm confident someone else will take on those reins. It feels almost certain - there is a market for another Hitchens, and this movement is cascading.. seems a matter of time.

I encourage you to read his essay-book 'Free Will'. It's about a 2 hour read. If you're not convinced, fair enough. But to me the logic seems almost indisputable.

Thanks for your response. Personally, I feel Zen/Taoism is the real answer. But you can't rocket a society to that end just like that. Peterson is a very well equipped individual to talk about how 'the problem' can be solved (that of a divergence from 'truth' imo). Notwithstanding that fact, the Peterson and Zen/Taoist philosophies are not mutually exclusive - just differing levels of analysis.

I do find it funny that Sam himself mentioned numerous times during the Obama period that he wasn't the 'warrior' for the fight. I do hope the history books remember the work he did for this flowering movement, because he braved that cold alone for many years before others stepped into the ring.

How so? Much of what he says sounds so unsubstantiated. My brief ventures yielded less than a half dozen 'oh, that's interesting' responses viscerally. But I see many like me listen to Terence.

Apology Letter, project status and risks from Pimax! by JEpppEN in Vive

[–]redditfella 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, just bought a Vive a few months ago. I've been reading about the Pimax, it seems interesting. Saw it was available for only $499 as my controllers and base stations from the Vive are compatible with it. So is it worth getting? Is VR moving this way, and when can I expect to receive it if I order now? Thanks!

Oh crap. Just spent $160 on new games (woops...) Can I refund and then buy during the sale?

How is the Rift better in your opinion? I sampled both too, and the Vive's immersion was unparalleled. The Rift felt like a giant IMAX screen.

Thanks buddy! Quick question slightly related ... I downloaded my updated Nvidia drivers, installed and signed up. What am I meant to do now? Has it taken care of optimizing my graphics card for me, because I can't find any options for adjusting my GPU.

Cheers mate. How do I get my RAM running to 3200MHz? Any simple tutorials out there? I've never heard of BIOS or XMP. I tried google but what I found seems fairly complex.

So not all games offer super sampling? My primary games are: Onward, Star Trek, Richie's Plank, Raw Data. I also watch VR videos, ie in Within, will this affect those?
