Re: The Prison of the Future - Cognify

Thankfully a system like this doesn't exist but if it did it would be psychotic in nature. A society that has nuclear bombs pointed at itself and which values greed and corruption as virtues has no business coercively reprogramming peoples minds. Where does it stop? Sure maybe people don't have empa...

Re: Is a Latin American Union Possible?

I think the political and moneyed elites in the existing countries of Latin America would not want such a union if it would hurt their own power and wealth. Average people would also find it distasteful given national, ethnic, and racial differences. For example, Argentines consider themselves to b...

Re: Is a Latin American Union Possible?

^I just wanted to discuss something similar, just not on a global scale. The entire world breaking down literally all its borders seems like a stretch to me. If anything, it would make more sense for linguistically and culturally similar countries to try it out first. A Latin American Union is cert...

Re: Israel's conflict with its neighbours

Like I said I don't want to argue with people here anymore but I feel I should say something on this rn. Israel clearly broke the ceasefire they just signed, any rhetoric to the opposite is a lie. America and Israel are both tapped into each others communication networks intimately. There is no misc...

they could literally launch the recycling initiative as is and put a new glass collection canister on site when it’s ready. The UK government is such a joke, taking 3 years to figure out how to recycle glass.

I feel like this thread has been talking excessively about the US Republican party to the point of almost totally ignoring the terrifying rise and wrath of the actually Fascist Zionist and Hindutva movements https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zA3gELMvuV8 https://old.reddit.com/r/israelexposed/comments...

Re: Aging & Longevity News and Discussions

I really hope we live to see LEV and that it comes soon enough for our parents even. Spiritually I have come to terms with death to an extent, but that doesn't mean it has to happen now when it could happen in a million years instead. The result is still the same and there'd be nothing wrong with th...

Re: Peak Oil

They don’t square well with projections of lower demand at all. That said I don’t think these production expansions will lead to 4x production from todays numbers in real terms. The Permian Basin is all but dry and new tar sands and fracking wells are less efficient in energy return on investment te...

Re: GPU and CPU news and discussions

Re: OpenAI Sora actually is dangerous

We're certainly approaching the event horizon. The three most important actions to take are to build strong local communities IRL, Promote environmentalism, and oppose nuclear proliferation at all costs. We have to whether these awful times without destroying the planet until material conditions cha...

I cannot think of a single place on Earth where the presence of American soldiers has helped in any way during my entire lifetime. But isn't that an oversimplification? The U.S. military doesn't just bomb or attack places. They provide a lot of peacekeeping, disaster relief and humanitarian aid wor...
