Fuck you imbeciles, and good bye.

Moron.

Retard.
June 09, 2021 at 06:47
Stupid.
June 09, 2021 at 06:43
It's about digital image and number of pixel combinations, number of unique pictures the grid can possibly, theoretically, represent. I did open the t...

Again, what a finite resolution image can potentially show has nothing to do with computers and memory limitations.
June 09, 2021 at 00:25
It's beside the point. It's like you are refusing to acknowledge it just because you do not like it, for some strange reason. I said down to nanometre...
June 09, 2021 at 00:20
Uhhh. Empty assertion without explanation, wonderful. Let me break it down... 1. Premise: There is no planet in the universe that your monitor could n...

What a finite resolution image can potentially show has nothing to do with computers and memory limitations. It's a simple logic exercise. There is no...
June 08, 2021 at 23:52
I don't see why involve computation/simulation in this. For whatever problem we do not yet know the answer to, your computer screen will be able to re...
June 08, 2021 at 22:43
It is the other way around, the number of possible images my empty photo or your computer screen can represent far exceeds the possible details of the...
June 08, 2021 at 21:44
If you would please answer the question: could there possibly be a planet in the whole universe whose every single square millimetre it could not show...
June 08, 2021 at 21:13
Your irony is a waste of time until you make clear what your opinion is and explain your reasoning.
June 08, 2021 at 20:59
What does that have to do with anything I said?
June 08, 2021 at 20:49
What part, what detail could it not show? For example, could it show every single square millimetre of Earth, Moon, Jupiter, and Mars? And so on... co...
June 08, 2021 at 20:46
Perhaps the best way to explain it is to ask what part of the universe it can not show?
June 08, 2021 at 19:26
Your "of course" surprises me since I do not know of any other argument or reasoning that even comes close to be as convincing. What convinced you tha...

Don't understand. Do we agree this logic with empty photo and all the possible pictures it can hold means there is only a finite number of unique book...
June 08, 2021 at 17:31
Heh, yeah, the logic doesn't seem to scale that way, and that baffles me. I mean, just exactly at what resolution the logic starts to fail, and why th...
June 08, 2021 at 14:03
How is it eventually less, what scenes are not included within the total number of all the pictures that photo can potentially hold?
June 08, 2021 at 13:50
Infinity here refers to the maximum possible number of different or unique things or concepts that can possibly exist, ever. For example, the number o...
June 08, 2021 at 13:42
My point was mainly to introduce an analogy, to look at the problem from a bit different perspective in hope it might shed some new light and open alt...
June 08, 2021 at 12:31
It's a diagram of a segment of an infinite line. What I said, in other words, if we can exist in infinite space, so too present time can exist with in...
June 08, 2021 at 03:26
That present point in time can not exist with infinite past seems the same as saying that some spatial point A can not exist on an infinite line, but ...

There is a glass of water on my table, what about it do you call "flux"? The glass was full few days ago, now it's half empty, what about that change ...

It's not a matter of opinion, you either speak English or Gibberish. https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/physical
March 11, 2020 at 23:37
I think you said material objects are made of material substance, while physical objects are bundles of their properties. And you are not even joking....
March 11, 2020 at 23:21
Physical is the same thing as material, it means measurable / observable. To redefine words is to speak gibberish, just like not knowing what words me...

How is functional-consciousness and qualia-illusion supposed to be different from actual-consciousness and actual-qualia?
March 11, 2020 at 14:37
What's the difference?
March 11, 2020 at 13:39
You are not talking about volition, but identity / personality. Instead of asking for independence and autonomy from what is not you, you want to be f...
March 11, 2020 at 02:46
How? What exactly is the difference between the two?
March 10, 2020 at 23:27
Instead of definition you gave description. In any case, qualia is just one more thing panpsychism can not address. The brain itself is an obstacle fo...
March 10, 2020 at 17:54
It was originally answer to someone's question, not related to panpyschism.
March 10, 2020 at 16:25
I'm only talking about response / reaction, any reaction, as opposed to contemplation / imagination.
March 10, 2020 at 16:08
It “explains” why my socks and bubblegum are conscious, even though no one thought they were, but it doesn’t explain why the human brain is conscious ...
March 10, 2020 at 16:05
Strange twist? Experience comes with a time delay, that’s all.
March 10, 2020 at 15:47
This is not physics, it’s ontology and metaphysics. So the first goal is to establish logical categories or else you end up contradicting yourself. No...
March 10, 2020 at 14:38
At the end of the experiment there are two streams of zeros and ones on two tapes and first you have to pair them to calculate the result or “correlat...
March 10, 2020 at 11:38
Most people even today would consider software to be "immaterial” rather than virtual, and “ghost” was actually a pretty good description of software ...
March 10, 2020 at 05:06
That’s why I insist it should be referred to as “infinite divisibility” rather than “continuity”, it is far more specific and avoids this kind of misi...
March 10, 2020 at 03:33
Again, you say you disagree, but you never say what is it you disagree with. Are you a robot?
March 10, 2020 at 02:52
What do you think I said? What exactly are you arguing against?
March 10, 2020 at 02:47
Continuous does not mean indivisible, it means “composed of no parts”, i.e infinitely divisible. Indivisible is what discrete means, it’s the opposite...
March 10, 2020 at 02:19
You said “it’s not complex enough”. It was about time delay, not complexity. Almost every neuroscientist and philosopher will tell you there is no fre...
March 10, 2020 at 00:28
Yes, many, because what I said is not controversial at all. Google it!
March 10, 2020 at 00:08
You try again, you forgot to say what exactly do you believe doesn't line up with reality. In the meantime I will repeat what I sad. Experience is a s...
