@write4u It’s a fascinating talk, trust me.

Indeed, this video is a great summary to the basic mechanics of perception.

My question from above is about the point this mechanism does work in a way it isn’t fully reliable anymore. Not only restrictet to sensory perception and its immediate “first level” processing but also the later overall c…[Read more]

Fun little quick answer.

article above – “… Good question. We don’t know.”

Something we don’t know yet is something we can learn.

But, doesn’t have the value of maximum effect-transport-velocity = lightspeed a background behind it, something that causes it to be the value we know?

We can’t say that spacetime exists in all the universe as we know it here. So unless you are only referring to light moving here in this solar system and area, you cannot talk about a speed for light. No one has gone out to the far universe to experience light moving there. We do not even know that time as we know it here exists out there! – d…

“Treat others how you want to be treated”
This is seen as the golden rule, and it is most of the time. -morgan

I think this is a adequate rule of the thumb, like you shown can it be vague. The more precise of an action the ethic has to describe/guide the more difficulty it gets to define it. Thats why I prefer to leave the ethical definition in a…[Read more]

Yes but who does the recycling? -write4u

In the case of CO2, the waste products of our industrial fuels, does alter the atmospheric composition – climate change back 2.7 billion years ago -write4u

You’re missing the point that this CO2 is not “normal” at all. Sequestered CO2 (oil, coal) was formed 2.7 billion years from excess CO2, deep in the…

Yes, but unlike other natural consumers, human waste is not returned to the earth as potential fertilizer for new consumption, i.e. renewable resource.-write4u

Not on its own, it has to be recycled.

Human waste is often is toxic and harmful to the environment. Example; extracting sequestered CO2 from the earth and sowing it the atmosphere.-w

@Mriana Indeed that generally is was would and did happen. In the case of having some crazy evil “genius” overtake the country there are three main options to choose from. Jump on the train, dodge the train, get under the train. From every of those stanpoints is a unique possibility to stop/sabutage the train or pushing it on.

Extra-dimensional. -mrmhead

@mrmhead You mean like we and our environment exist in more dimensions than we can perceive and the UFOs are phenomena occurring from these extra dimension(s)? Interesting thing. How can we describe, understand, grasp dimensions we are not aware of because of… why are we actual not aware of these extra dimensions?

Within the limitations of free will, yes, you can change. Acceptance is a good thing, but if slaves accepted their fate, we wouldn’t have the democracies we now have.-laust

Excuse me, I transposed you and sabolina, guess sometimes you both come across the same way. – Citizen

@citizenschallengev3 Figured it. No problem.

If everything that happens is something you could just live with, then there is no basis for determining how to act. -lausten

The constant that you live / exist next to and with everything should stand. How you live I think is your decision. And yes, there is no proper higher decision-making basis in the universal sense about what desicion to…[Read more]

@citizenschallengev3 #345891 humbly harrumph. Do you adress me? #345879 wasn’t from me.

You described the process of becoming aware of your emotions, understanding them, channeling them instead of letting them control you. – lausten

Yes, and by doing that they don’t have an influence on you anymore. What leads to the practically/technically disappearance of sad emotions until your awareness in that regard fades away. – I made a…[Read more]
