Stoicism vs Epicureanism
-->
@Lemming
Take a couple of old Greeks and stick an ism on the end.

Et voila.

Another load of philosophical bollocks that means nothing to 99% of humanity.

Although.

Epicurus was an atomist.

And it has to be said that Democritus was perhaps on to something.


This was a Zedism.

Have a nice day.

At the end of the day, and after years of hitting heads against brick walls.

We have to conclude that some people are just fucking stupid.

And others will just take advantage of a stupid persons stupidity.

And in order to maintain some sort of social stability, others commit themselves to a battle that will never be won.

A wall just has to got around, over or through.

And it's not as if all U.S. Nationals are not stupid enough to not take advantage of the illegal drugs trade.

Might as well just make it legal and leave the stupid fuckers to get on with it.

And stop molly coddling them with help and sympathy when their lives go tits up.

Doing so will make drugs cheap and available, render the illegal traders redundant, and dramatically cut social services spending.

Very true.

We create associations.

And some are better than others.

But people will always criticize you behind your back.

Love is a nonsense word that we apply liberally and randomly, and generally represents a short term desire.

I would say that the strongest emotional bond we feel is the parent child association.

Partners are unrelated, and as such we have no physical connection to them,  though familiarity will sometimes result in a lifetimes loyalty and dependency, but sometimes, discontent and contempt, wherein "LOVE" and loyalty simply fly out of the window.

I am young. That is success.

I am young or younger, is probably a statement of fact, relative to how we rationalise our short lives.

Though "I am young" is not an achievement per se...Rather, just a statement.

The Earth's eco-system is entirely reliant upon the Sun.

And has evolved accordingly.

The Sun is our immediate GOD.

Or perhaps more so, our Universal Angel.

It is needed 24/7.

Will AI make investing in higher education pointless?

Therefore, AI lacks creativity but at an infantile level.

My point entirely.

If you had asked the same things of Og, 40000 thousand years ago, as he stretched upright for the first time, somewhere in Africa.

He would probably have replied Oo Oo Oo Oo.


Though I am still of the opinion, that currently an AI doesn't as yet, properly exist.

Just evolving, human controlled technology.

Artificial is old hat.

I replaced it with alternative long ago.

Because intelligence either is or isn't...So is neither artificial or otherwise.

It's simply a means of acquiring information and creating new ideas.

And as I continue to stress...Hominids have been doing it for 40000 years or so.

Whereas AI is just starting.

I enjoy the English language.

Plus, I am British and was educated at a time before any sort of computer or social media existed.

When English was taught seriously, and one wrote with a fountain pen.

Brain declines with your age.

Brain must incline with age initially, for it to be able to decline eventually.

Whereas wisdom doesn't develop until testosterone dependency diminishes.

Which is why Trump fails on all counts.

And some youngsters lie abed in a pool of spent ejaculate waiting for their Moms to come and change the bed linen.

Nonbinary people suck because they are willing to be gender fluid, but not party fluid.

A statement so rife with comic potential.


Hasn't sucking gender fluids long since been de rigueur.

But may vary relative to the type of parties one frequents.


Though fluid transfer would in general, best represent human culture, in terms of ongoing binary betterness.

And nonbinary is as nonbinary does...Whereas fluid necessities do have a tendency to override the conceptual.

Which isn't to suggest that non binary fluid transfer cannot be mentally and physically rewarding.

Of course the male puts in more effort, unless the female is riding him.

Sex worker.

Sex takes effort for sure.

Though I'm not certain of the ratio of male to female input of energy.

Depends upon enthusiasm and methodology I suppose.

But one might suggest that your average missionary style quicky, probably requires a much greater level of male input.

Sound advice but not as much fun as  a bit of banter trading.

It's rather like advising  the fecund to not bother about sex.


Nonetheless, if there is a GOD I'm guessing that it is not as stupid as theists make it out to be.

And takes little interest in the machinations of human society.

Perhaps smiling occasionally when it gets the time to see us do our stuff.

And when we die, it doesn't notice the difference.

For sure, more accurately an abortion can be either a surgical or medical procedure.

And moral reasoning, is variable, selective  and inconsistent.

We are all hormonally driven, wherein matter takes precedence over mind.

And relative to a raft of factors, human stupidity is rife when it comes to matters of sexuality and morality.

It's the nature of the beast.

@sadolite
I'm guessing that in the short and medium term, AI will require the assistance of clever human dexterity.

Though the old concepts of education and academia will eventually be replaced by a new AI run system of selection and technological conditioning.

Longer term requirements will be universal rather than global and for AI to decide if we still have a necessary role to play.


I'm also guessing that global AI cooperation will make the concepts of cost and investment redundant.

Save for a few albino's no one is particularly white.

Most people just have perceivably differing characteristics.

Which inaccurately get classified relative to just skin tone variation, rather than all the character and cultural traits that make up both our individualities and similarities.

Notably, you also employ global positioning as a classification tool.


So it's all down to, once upon a time, who went where, who fucked who and how the kids turned out.

As you think that being over 40 is of no benefit to society.

Then I wouldn't worry too much about dietary consequences and living until you are 70.

Just enjoy the time you have, lying in bed, counting fowl, consuming sugar, and shooting up with insulin. 

Whilst you slowly become morbidly obese.

Hopefully you will be able to afford a cute gay nurse with a penchant for fat guys, to come and wipe your arse and perform other intimate health care services.

Must sound like heaven BK.

An abortion is a potential medical, surgical or natural procedure.

Somewhat ideologically contentious.

Though a practical solution to a common problem. 

And plays a small part in population management.


I'm guessing BK, that relative to your current line of thinking, you would rather a proliferation of under 40's and the compulsory euthanasia of over 40's.

Though I would further guess, that you would modify your  line of thinking on your 40th birthday.

What is the Christian take on Gnosticism?
-->
@LucyStarfire
Gnosis is the self creation of internal fantasy based concepts, derived from acquired data of a similar nature.

Wherein and wherefrom, the self generation of electrochemical responses occurs, resulting in the appreciation of said internally simulated fantasy.

Stimuli will vary relative to conditioning, though as species we have undoubtedly established common affects.
