Fuck Assange. He helped the Russians interfere in the 2016 US elections. Another FSB/GRU tool. Thanks for Trump, Jules! Go. Rot. :shade:

If you say so ... but then, by implication, you're also saying that Chalmers refutes himself in admitting his formulation amounts to a category mistak...

No mysteries. Dennett got himself taken very seriously by two generations of neuroscientists with his philosophical contributions of elucidating vague...

Read The Ego Tunnel (or if you've got the balls – most don't – Being No One).

:death: :flower:

My two bit(coin)s: Earth's moon, Mars, & asteroid mining are not the end-all-be-all of space exploration. I think what should happen (though probably ...

I've only proposed apophasis in a dozen of so posted replies to you (with links for further context and wiki-simple descriptions of relevant concepts)...

Try actually reading Metzinger.

:up: Yes. Not first, simultaneously. (Mining asteroids will require both for launch and resource processing infrastructure sites. :point: ) Sure we ca...

:up: I can't make sense of what you mean by this. Apparently, we use "metaphysics" in different ways to mean different things. . Anyway, Jack, here's ...

:rofl: I understand. Btw, I don't see what "qualia" (perceptions) have to do with metaphysics (categorical constructs).

This . As pointed out above (re: Dennett), 'qualia' as a concept doesn't add anything informative to neuroscientific explanations (conjectures, models...

:death: :flower:

Too much nuance, my friend, for somebody else's homework. :smirk:

Yeah, sufficiently advanced technology. :sparkle: (Beam me up!)

Truer words have rarely been (spoken). :up:

"Idea X" is objectively true (epistemology). "Idea Z" is absolutely real (ontology).

e.g. Idealism (or solipsism). Embodied cognition —> e.g. anthropocentric bias, confirmation bias, status quo bias, projection bias, salience bias, apo...

True. But remember the Mexican shitshow was more or less "Made in America". https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=scyC9A6o_Ts

That's an uncharitable reading to say the least. I've proposed an alternative / complementary way of 'doing metaphysics' not unlike negative (apophati...

Trust a native, sir, my country was a "shithole" in 2019 (in 1989) too. Nothing new except some (heavily armed, pandemic-denying, racist) natives open...

Bingo!

echoes and whispers :death: https://youtu.be/SNyoUCdQog8 silences and spaces :flower:

Have you read the CPR or any Kant? (Rhetorical question.) :roll: Obviously... But maybe I might learn something here – Cite a "philosophical theory", ...

Did you even read the article I've linked? That's not the experience of those who've actually eaten the 3-d printed steaks. Btw, I've eaten hydroponic...

Appeal to popularity fallacy. C'mon ... That's mere nosiness, or curiosity, not wonder (Plato et al). Philosophers strive to reflectively reason to be...

So (according to you) we don't know – don't have a physical account of – "thoughts", so why jump to some "nonphysical" woo-of-the-gaps instead of just...

I think spectacularly malfeasant, insolvent & gaslighting "Individual 1's" political future is in the same clumsy heavy hands it was in during 2016 an...

Explain how a theory is not also a "technical notion". (What do you mean by "technical"?) Matter denotes dissipative structure. Material objects (e.g....

Doesn't "vat-grown meat" moot the question of "justification"? (re: link to article)

No. (Second question is n/a.) :point: :sparkle:

"Tr45h Restoration" Coup" in 2022? 2024? ... :chin: I don't think so; but nonetheless an excellent analysis of the current "radicalized" State of the ...

No. The affirmative assumes 'logical psychologism' which is unwarranted, even incoherent (Frege, Husserl); and nearly an attribution error.

I guess you didn't read this post or the embedded link (rabbit hole to Oz!) therein. Impossibilism (will do, I guess) – membership-rules of the Null S...

I believe the passage I quoted was translated by Walter Kaufmann (who I prefer even to Hollingdale).

As I said:

I said as much in the post you quoted, so you actually agree with me, Fool. I've also speculated on how it might be done someday . :nerd:
