- Comment on 5 days ago:
Being rational is oppositional to being a cult, as it’s constantly trying to get you to question everything, including itself, and dismiss it if it doesn’t stand up.
- Comment on How much money's out there? 1 week ago:
Money is really just a representation for resources, so if it was simple, the value of money should adjust to be equal in total to the total amount of resources on the market. However, then people go and make it complicated by buying stuff like services, money itself, lending money, and so on.
Value for things like services are also subjective, varying by the person and how desperate they are, or how loathe to sell their time and energy.
- Comment on Shut up science!! 1 week ago:
Knowledge is itself a justified true belief. Also, the scientific method is the best way of obtaining empirical knowledge, but the idea that empirical evidence is true is still a belief, and not even that justified. Also also, science is constantly trying to prove itself wrong. It’s unlikely that what we think now based on scientific methods will be the same we think in the future.
- Comment on OPSEC social media related question 1 week ago:
What type of organisation are you part of that you need to guard the OpSec (operational security) of? Are you sure you don’t mean PerSec (personal security)?
That said, please try selling your item in EBay before using Facebook, like, it’s not great, but Facebook collects so much more data, even on an empty device. Iirc they need to ‘verify’ your identity with an ID document.

- Comment on When you wake up, how long does it take for your brain's "OS" to "resume from hibernation"? 3 weeks ago:
Sometimes it takes me about 30 seconds before I realise where I am if I’m in a new place, otherwise instant.
- Comment on If dark matter doesn't emit, absorb, or reflect light, what happens when light hits it? 3 weeks ago:
It passes right through. It only interacts with gravity. Which can indirectly bend light, however, by bending spacetime.

I let my thoughts wander, and pay attention to the world around me. I’ve been forced to do this since I can’t wear earbuds while my ear piercings heal.

What is the rating scale though? Surely it’s subjective to how the pain feels to you?
- Comment on Particle Observer 5 weeks ago:
That’s a big eye
- Comment on Why do each gaming fraction (pc, consoles, mobile) hating each other? 5 weeks ago:
I’m perfectly content to let console player enjoy their games, just PC games feel so much easier to control for me, especially with the fine control the mouse offers. Although I do appreciate the vibration handhelds can have, mice can have it too, but it’s not as good. PC keyboards also have lots more buttons that you can map to functions, meaning more things can be accessible with one click.
- Comment on On new installations, Android rebinds the power button to open up Google Assistant 5 weeks ago:
Technically it opens your default assistant. Mine is set to Dicio, so it opens that. Also, it wasn’t default for me, but just an option I found while exploring settings.
