Who's "them"? Trans people???

That's scary.

Thank you! unless it struck you as one of the most stupid, lol

He was banned specifically for being bigoted. "We have been very tolerant, and Bob was warned many times, but he persisted in advancing racist, homoph...

Strange? It was bigoted and stupid. It would have been one thing if Bob had been intellectually honest, but arguing with him was like talking to smoke...

Let's start simple: you think death threats should be illegal, right?

We're better off without his pseudo-intellectual bigotry.

:up:

I am largely sympathetic. I was playing Devil's Advocate. Leibniz claims this is the best of all possible worlds. As a theist who believes in an omnip...

I think what’s happening here is that the bar for “necessity” is being set so high that no theodicy could ever clear it. You’re asking for a proof tha...

Ukraine is getting a $90bn euro loan. That will fund their war effort for the next 18 months. https://www.ft.com/content/e5691048-696b-44cd-8a0a-50b91...

Your response assumes that free will can be preserved while catastrophic consequences are engineered away. That assumption is unargued and highly ques...

Right. Would the world massively collapse in some way if PMS cramps were 10% less painful?

The theist could construct a theodicy to attack "Creating vulnerable, ignorant, and powerless sentient beings when one could instead create equally om...

I'm not following this. If an O-O being is a necessary being, then it is impossible for an O-O being to bring about "the existence of beings who are e...

What about traditional women's spaces? Suppose you have a man who identifies as a woman walking around in the women's locker room at 24 Hour Fitness w...

How does this apply to, say, women's sports? I think, in those cases, physical attributes take precedence over gender/identity. To take an extreme exa...

A necessary omniscient-omnipotent (O-O) being would invalidate premise 2: "If a being is omnipotent, it has the power to bring about any logically pos...

What if omniscient and omnipotent beings also happen to be necessary? In that case, they could not be created, they would already exist. And also, if ...

Mathematical truths are distinct from logical truths. It seems strange that mathematics cannot be reduced to logic when both logical and mathematical ...

What about something simple, like 2+2=4? Isn't that discoverable through pure reason?

P or not P; If P then Q, P therefore Q; all bachelors are unmarried men, etc.

If mathematical truths are necessary truths (e.g., there is no possible world where Pi isn't 3.14...), then aren't mathematical truths also logically ...

I agree Ai isn't the best way to arbitrate this. You brought it up, though. It's not the media giving me that impression. It's Charlottesville and Bir...

ChatGPT, what percent of MAGA do you think are "white nationalists"? Realistic range: ~10–20% of MAGA supporters hold white-nationalist ideology outri...

I have some of the same thoughts the OP has. But I don't think babies are all that special.

4o. I've heard Gemini is better for the sort of simulations I run. I'm going to try it out.

I've been running alternate history simulations with ChatGPT for awhile. I play different world leaders, give orders, and advance the timeline by 3 mo...

He's a white nationalist Christian fundamentalist who hates Jews. https://www.mediamatters.org/diversity-discrimination/nick-fuentes-jews-are-running-...

That's not our only difference and I don't actually think Trump was lying when he said, earlier, he didn't know who Nick Fuentes was when Kanye brough...

"We’ve had some great interviews with Tucker Carlson, but you can’t tell him who to interview. I mean, if he wants to interview Nick Fuentes, I don’t ...

There's something going on there. Why is being put on a puberty blocker such a powerful determinant for transitioning? Is the puberty blocker a casual...

When people say all this is a bubble, like pets.com, I think: this is the worst these ai's will ever be and already they're incredible. What will Chat...

No, I think women have a well deserved fear of biological men. I think they have a human right to some traditional women-only spaces and sports. This ...

This got me thinking about changing rooms in various gyms I've been in. None of them have been mixed, and women have complained about the presence of ...

:up:

There are some opinions that will get you banned, and for good reason. We don't tolerate Holocaust denialism, for example. This whole thread is an emb...

Jamal is being charitable. I would have banned you by now.

Thank you. "Well this strikes me as leftist propaganda. Most of this has been explicitly clarified or corrected." Musk's Ai literally called itself Me...

None of this is happening in a vacuum. The Heritage scandal comes on the heels of https://www.politico.com/news/2025/10/14/private-chat-among-young-go...

Did Kevin Roberts resign? I'm not seeing that. Tucker privately hated Trump after Tucker got caught falling for his election lies. He then explained t...

We are seeing lots of opposition from (what MAGA would call) RINO squishes. Has Trump or Vance weighed in on this?

I don't blame them. In many respects they're still a developing country. Developing countries use fossil fuels. They're cheap, easy, and reliable. If ...

Is this supposed to be encouraging? Catastrophic warming is already baked in. By the time China makes a meaningful reduction in fossil fuel use (say h...

Or like asking is there something it's like to be the countless interactions between billions of neurons? That, also, doesn't make any sense to me. Wh...

Very interesting. Is there something it's like to be the user-AI interaction? Grok and Chatgpt say no.

But it is a mental image, right? A picture, if you will. So what is this quote about?: "Ulric Neisser argued that mental images are plans for the act ...

Sure, but for those who have a mind's eye, the imagination and/or memory is a lot like a picture/image in the mind. Isn't it like that for you?

It's not exactly like listening to an actual song or seeing an actual sunset. Why do you ask? Are you not capable of playing a song in your mind or im...
