Yeah, whoever is benefiting from those changes is probably counting on it

That’s why education and reading books that disagree with your life, culture and understanding can be very beneficial

So if everyone in the US stops buying publically traded companies, it would bankrupt the top 10%?

Stellar! Thanks for the info!

Thanks for the resource, might be good to at least research. Thanks!

So thinking on this more, there are many studies that are impossible to replicate, either due to time, money, or team size. Think about weather studies, no human lives long enough, so we have to push the belief back on the original data being accurate. Human studies that span millions of people are also hard for small teams or individuals to replicate. Also hard to have a particle accelerator for most people, so we have to trust the accelerators function properly, the data collected is not malformed and the interpretations are also correct (the last bit is what we could possibly double check if we had direct access)

I love the scientific method as well, but I think we still have some limits. Even if we had infinite time, but without infinite resources we might not be able to replicate everything “scientifically proven” (and even then, due to space time curvature, it might not be possible if infinite time and infinite resources had a fixed physical point, but that is probably Einsteinian philosophy)

Also, please prove me wrong. I’d rather believe the scientific method was 100% true, no joking.

Hey sorry, thinking on this more, could I just turn on the NAS when desired? What is the benefit of running it constantly?

Nice, good things to balance. Thanks for the info!

Nice, didn’t realize a NAS could be on smaller hardware. Thanks for the info!

Nice, thanks so much for the info!

Totally agree that most of the tools are there, but how many trials have you personally duplicated? The average person?

So our brains were crafted to intake “reality” at a specific speed and quality. We can’t see things at the atomic, much less quantum reality, nor understand the massive scale of the planet, much less the universe. Most “facts” are more beliefs from what others have suggested to be, than individually researched facts. Even our scientific method is a bit wanting in this area, since if we hear X, how can we prove X? We just need to take other’s word that they did the correct process, didn’t lie during any steps, didn’t have any bad data unknowingly, especially in a culture where reproducibility is not a high priority so most scientific papers are not thoroughly tested and retested

That’s roughly our skeletal social structure around “facts”, and we’re heading face first into a world of deep fakes and misinformation, to an extent never seen before in humanity. So maybe we should all extend each other a bit more patience and kindly help each other through these uncertain times

Gotta Get 'Em All!

I think this would be funny if the NSA didn’t consider Linux users to be a radicalized threat

Thanks!

Thanks!

Thanks!

Thanks!

Have any suggestions for “normies” on iPhone and Android that aren’t Signal?
