Rabbits are completely incapable of surviving!, see every time we drop a rabbit into an enclosed space filled with wolves, they get eaten, it just proves that only carnivores are able to survive.
Oh hang on we need to drop more herbavores into our carnivore cages because we have to keep propping up these carnivores.
I mean, VR has happened, and been happening for like a decade... is what's not happening that it hasn't replaecd every system and been the only or even primary method of gaming... no. Is it mark zuckerbergs "metaverse" where we start working from home, by wanting to go into a VR virtual workspace or hold our productivity meetings in VR... no obviously not.
Is it a viable option of gaming, along with mobile phone games, PC games, Console games, and portable console games, yes it has a place there right now.
Newton is so strongly the posterboy for how you can be brilliant in one area, and still so wrong in so many others. He spent about equal time looking at physics, alchemy and some bullshit da-vinchi code search for secrets in biblical numerology. Can you just imagine how much further he could have pushed physics and mathmatics if he hadn't spent 2/3rds of his time chasing red herrings.
IMO the biggest thing is in the fracturing they had the ability to do what everyone thought cable should do.
IE cable packages could have been made to work, if say they were actually split by genre or similar. But instead if you want a package for X, you pay for 500 channels you don't want.
IE if the streaming services split up by genre. Like off the top of my head discovery + was the only one that IMO did a cool thing, IE focused on purely giving a solid theme where if you like educational type programs, that's the one to get.
If there were like a sci fi focused streaming, or comedy etc... but rather than going focused, we've got 20 generalists. As a result if say you only like one type of show, you need to buy 6 streaming services, for the 6 good shows in that genre.
What's dumber is the video origionally was called 1 christian vs 20 atheists, and you see in the video at least one atheist brought up the video title that they all knew before they started. (In other words, Jordan Peterson specifically volunteered to play the christian in a video that when he agreed to it was called, 1 christian vs 20 atheists) Then later demanded they rename the video.
But further its simple, JP preffers to attack people's specific stances, from a nebulous position where he never has to give his own stance because he can't defend his own stance.
idiocracy intro?
(IE the theory it pushed was in short, smart people do family planning, try to wait for everything to be perfect... and forget to get around to having kids).
Meanwhile on the less intelligent spectrum. Shit I'm pregnant again!!!... Oh and I got the girl in the trailer next door pregnant.
Or for a real world example... look at Lauren Boebert, the 35 year old grandmother in congress.
Such a facepalming concept, how the hell can boycots be illegal.
Maybe breaking a contract can be illegal, obviously sit ins, and vandalism can be illegal. But no sane person can call not buying something illegal.
Hell isn't that exactly what the capitalist class is supposedly claiming is the one thing that's supposed to guide the free market. IE we don't need regulations, companies wont drop toxic waste in your water, because that would discourage you from buying their products.
exactly, she wasn't saying she was a researcher, she was stating she wasn't an arm chair quarterback... Going with the sports analogy she's far closer to a manager or a coach... not a dude on the couch with just the perspective of what's shown on TV.
To me the biggest hypocracy in general when it came to forms of communism.
It's a failed ideology, it will always collapse in on itself as soon as it grows.
Followed with
We need to destroy it at all costs to keep it from taking hold anywhere in the world.
You don't need to stop something that's self defeating. It's like the tower of babel story in the bible. Mankind was building up a great tower because they thought uniting they would be a powerful as gods, so god knocked over their tower, scrambled their languages to divide and conquer the world.... Isn't that kind of an admission that, God believed without his interference man can be as strong as he is?
That seems to be so common of a theme in theirs... Testing narcotics on animals to make predictions of how they impact humans is constantly being used as a chilling and watching animals take drugs". The idea that there's solutions to drug use that might be more effective than throw drug users into private prisons to do slave labor seems quite lost on these people.
Reminds me a bit of how carrots became known for helping eyesight. (in short the military claimed carrots helped eyesight so they were feeding them to their anti-aircraft gunners, to hide their mastery of radar).
I mean I guess the concept there though is, isn't making things into gold pointless anyway. We can lab make diamonds too, the jewelry industry works to keep them as a distinct alternate product to protect their slave mined ones. Is the quantity used for electronics enough that it would make a difference in typical manufacturing?
Actually kind of the ironic thing to me based on the time. Did gold have a practical use in the days of alchemy? I mean obviously mass producing gold, basically would have made it completely useless back then, it could make a small group of people very rich, provided they kept the method secret and were careful about how much they sold. It seems like the whole idea was flawed on it's head even if they hadn't based it on completely incorrect basis of the world.
