Specifically a criticism of the Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics. Schrödinger’s thought experiment is intended to make a person consider where/when the wave function is supposed to collapse.
Pilot-wave theory is another interesting interpretation. I feel like it’s a much more “intuitive” interpretation.

Haha, I can actually get down with that. Anyone crazy enough to do that is probably a genuine person who’s willing to engage with the insanity of existence.
- Comment on That's a good question 1 week ago:
Yeah, in my opinion it shows the power consumer culture has to erode the meaning of things. “This symbol used to stand for something, but it got too popular and now it’s just slapped on stuff to sell merch.”

I can’t speak for everyone, but when I wear a cross it’s in reference to Matthew 16:24
Then Jesus told his disciples, “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. For whoever would save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it. For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his soul? Or what shall a man give in return for his soul?”
To me the cross is symbolic of finding the courage to live our lives motivated by a radical love in order to overcome the fear of death and pain.
It’s like Goku once said while fighting to save the world “this is the power to go further beyond”

Or when Scout explains his date plan to Spy.
Spy: you have a dinner date for 7. What time do you arrive? Scout: 7… AM. Case the restaurant, run background checks on the staff. Can the cook be trusted? If not I’ve gotta kill him. Dispose of the body, replace him with my own guy no later than 4:30.

Quit your current life and move to a country where they speak the language you want to learn. Get a menial job in a small town, find new friends, and learn what love is. Then you’ll know what it truly means to speak a language.

Things won’t make people happy, happiness comes from within. People with financial resources can afford to spend a lot of time running from that truth.
- Comment on What are the best options for computers that explicitly support linux operating systems? 2 months ago:
I know people are going to hate me for saying this, but based on your stated priorities recommend getting a MacBook Air or MacBook Pro. As much as I love ricing Linux and playing games, I use my MacBook Air for 90% of all my computing and coding. MacOS provides the most polished user experience out of the box (although it’s going down hill with every update they push). And once MacOS hits the enshittification event horizon you can switch to Asahi.
I suggest at least going to an Apple Store and dicking around with a display model to get a feel for the UX.

I assume that when they die they’ll wake up from their wizard coma and it will coincide with some sort of cool plot point. Maybe his wizard body gets kissed by a frog or something.
- Comment on 🪨 Rock on 🪨 3 months ago:
The fixation on “completing” things isn’t healthy imo. An attitude like that will rob you of the ability to find joy. I have to eat every day, sleep every night, and do laundry on a weekly basis. None of these things will ever be “done” for as long as I’m alive. Being “complete” is being dead.

The Bible and Shrek are both human mythology. Stories we’ve created, learned, and lived that encapsulate aspects of the lived human experience.
