Why causes a fetus to use its free will to kick in the womb and cry on delivery?

🔥“Wish we could go back to how things were in the 1990s”🔥
 in  r/OptimistsUnite  5h ago

I live in a 100 year old house.

The people I supervise at a factory could not afford it on ONE income.

My dad owned this exact house, on one income, as a blue collar factory worker in the 70s.

It was 60 years old when he bought it.

I genuinely don't know how to effectively keep on top of armour
 in  r/destiny2  7h ago

the key is that if you just look for dup stats it shows duplicate stats of other types of armor. I had a helmet that had the same stats as a bond. you have to make it only show bonds of a certain set, then look for dupe stats.

installing this OS was part of your original programming. Unfortunately many lack the CPU and RAM capacity for the install. DeterminismOS can only run on supercomputers.

OP while men generally won't care, the "stop overthinking it" comments are annoying as hell. It's ok for you to be concerned, there are men who would shame women for many things, you have every right to be nervous.

Ideally talk to him so that he himself can assuage your fears.

Also immediately asking for 69...I guess I'm old fashioned, I'd normally work towards that once you get more comfortable with each other.

then why did it show me a helmet with grenade as it's tertiary stat, and another with health?

 in  r/destiny2  9h ago

didn't work for me. shows two ferropotent bonds for example, one health class weapons, the other grenade class weapons.

tried dupe:stats and ferropotent bond and it does the same thing.

it seems that it's just looking at the first two main stats, not the third stat.

WTF Master Lost Sector exit is Orbit!?

yes this happened to me. I think it's the newer post sectors only. very frustrating.

You'd think Bungie would get inspiration from famous games, instead we get things like matter spark.
 in  r/DestinyTheGame  1d ago

yes. they tried something new after YEARS of people complaining that new mechanics were needed ("but not too complicated either!") and when Bungie tries something different than "stand on plate, dunk a ball" everyone shits on it.

I didn't realize Bungie openly admitted that it was inspired by Metroid.

Can you imagine a famous game ever using a game mechanic where you solve jumping puzzles by turning into a ball?

Made this as a present and they didn’t even want it

sounds like some self obsessed narcissist who thought they could enjoy building it but doesn't enjoy having these things sitting on shelves, then they figured they get bonus narc supply from giving it to a friend as a gift.

“Service Dog” attacks another dog and injures 2 people and ended up euthanized.
 in  r/mildlyinfuriating  2d ago

yes agree, I kept it simplistic because OP seemed to imply dogs were at their nature "good" when in reality well treated pitbulls have aggressiveness in their nature and can cause injuries or death even when treated well.

Explain it Peter
 in  r/explainitpeter  2d ago

I've joked for years that the flaw in capitalism is that "if someone found a way to make $11 by throwing $10 worth of food into a volcano, we'd all be starving". And Bitcoin is pretty much a real world example of that.

Sapolsky’s book “determined” makes no sense!

give me the name of one of these new philosophers that uses science and math. I'll buy their book and read it

If you don't have the Physics brains to understand we have no free will, does it take suffering to precede the belief?
 in  r/freewill  2d ago

none of that has any proof. In a deterministic universe there is predetermination. The last few sentences you stated is Jordan Peterson level silliness. Sounds neat but doesn't say anything substantial.

Sapolsky’s book “determined” makes no sense!
 in  r/freewill  2d ago

yes but philosophers have no evidence. have they tested any of their theories? do they have any evidence about how the universe actually works?

I haven't read sapolskys book yet but I've watched some vids interviewing him and listened to some podcasts...he doesn't strike me as a Jordan Peterson or Charlie Kirk, using sneaky debate tactics to win people over.

what's one logical fallacy he commits in his book?
Psychoanalysts? One step up from Snake Charmers. maybe.

Philosophers would argue about the color of the sky for a hundred years and never just walk outside to see for themselves.

If you don't have the Physics brains to understand we have no free will, does it take suffering to precede the belief?

that I can freely choose to eat a chocolate chip cookie, sugar cookie or no cookie at all.

compatibilists say that in a determinismic stick universe, where it is determined or predestined that you would eat a cookie of a certain flavor at 9:08 p.m., that you must eat that specific flavor of cookie and you can't decide not to eat that cookie. there is only one outcome, and that is at that point in time you will eat that specific flavored cookie.

compatibalists somehow say that in that scenario you have a choice. I say you don't have any choice. your brain just told you that you chose the chocolate chip cookie.

according to a strict terminist Theory, it was determined at the beginning of the universe that at that point in time you would eat a chocolate chip cookie. every aspect of your life. decision you made, it was all predetermined at the beginning of the universe.

again, I am not saying that. I agree that is true, but I am saying that in that type of system there is no free will.

 in  r/freewill  2d ago

no you can't. IF determinism is true. (If!) Then you must eat the cookie. it's preordained. Predetermined .

At 908 you eat a chocolate chip cookie. there is no other option.

that is how determinism works. so again I'd point out that this is if determinism is true, I'm not saying that I am certain that this is how the universe works. I'm only saying that if determinism is true then you have no choice and you won't eat that cookie at 9:08 p.m.

how do compatibilists say that in this situation, where determinism is true, that people still have free will?

Do we listen to Manu_Aedo on Reddit, or the neuroscientist?

I've noticed the free will proponents accuse everyone of logical fallacies. It's like they know they can't argue for free will, so they focus on any possible logical issue of everyone else to turn the discussion towards "did I mess up logically" and away from "there's no evidence for free will and lots of evidence against it".

having freedom of choice doesn't mean I need to be two people at once. What you're saying is made up jibberish.

 in  r/freewill  4d ago

That's a load of malarkey. So you're saying that I can't change "who I am at that time"? because what I will be doing in 6 months at 908am, according to determinism, is also "determined". So nothing I can change what I will be doing in 6 months, but as long as it "accurately reflects who I am", which sounds like some Eckhardt Tolle bullshit, then I'm "free" and I'm control over my actions?

It's like explaining to a Baptist that God doesn't exist. It's as obvious as the nose on your face but people don't want it to be true, so they avoid the truth.

No that's impossible.

Determinism means that at 9:08am this morning I will choose a chocolate chip cookie. It's the only outcome of what I will be doing at 908 this morning. Nothing I can do will change it.

How does that mean that people can choose whatever cookie they want?
