But... where is it? Spain?
Very interesting! Was it as simple as just breeding the lineages that lived longer selectively? I can imagine possible work arounds for the increased replication error - freeze t-cells, or stem cell therapy, or induced autophagy.
Wait but it sounds like telemeres can get longer. Really? Doesn't that mean we can live forever by inducing that purposefully?
Oh okay, that does sound kinda familiar
Yeah I can see how that grouping can be harmful - in the understanding of it and also the feeling of inferiority it might induce in someone who is mostly functional. But also I wouldn't want people to be unaware of what's going on... You can become more self aware and start working on yourself.
That kid might've just smelled the joint and was hoping for a puff.
I think its the shortening of the telemers, but yes I see your point. Also can be caused by a malfunction where the wrong proteins are overproduced, usually after an immune response. Lol, focus...
Idk, you do you man. There's pros and cons to either.
Are you actually in India? What's the situation like between the states and the federal government? Its a federal entity, right? How autonomous are the states? Could they buy bitcoin without federal approval? Could cities? Are the cities and/or states buying gold? I know India loves gold, but I don't know if that's all the government levels or just one or just the people buying it. But most curious if they could get bitcoin.
Is it really just a lack of social awareness? I think that used to be me, but I don't think so anymore. I might actually be cured, idk... But the moment where I think the cure occurred was when I died, literally. Thanks, hospital. But not to get diverted... I think its more about focus than anything else. The lack of social awareness is because you're too focused on whatever else you're doing. Autistic people also get angry easier, which definitely used to be me, and I think that's also a focus thing.
Yeah I don't think anyone would choose to have any degree of autism. I'd say its a disability. I'd say life with it is inferior to life without it.
That's by design. Our government spends too much, and it's only possible because other countries keep buying our dollars. Its only a trade deficit if you don't understand that dollars are the good we produce and you demand. If no one wanted dollars, our economy would hyperinflate because the domestic economy can't absorb that many dollars. So, on the one hand, thank you ; on the other hand, please stop. The tariff makes no difference to me - stop buying our dollars.
Not looking good for you. Perhaps you should be taking notes on nostr:nprofile1qqsd68ua2qk8j5wlgl503mfyt69l5f8haqkz3uvnnx50pe6tqcgn5ggpz3mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduq32amnwvaz7tmwdaehgun9d35hgetn9ehhyecpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurjd9kkzmpwdejhgpjw3m8 list of ways we're inferior.
Looks like he's saying sensible things... But this is a helluva thread... No telling what I missed...
Well... We're related then, in all the lines you listed. I'm also a descendent of Pocahontas, and that wasn't the only one, though I don't remember the details. Also got the Plantagenets as ancestors, which I'm pretty sure links to the Stewarts.
And I prefer the natives. "He gone native!" That seems to be a tradition.
Poland should leave. The have the best military in Europe. If they make a pact with the rump of Ukraine to be a something like the start of that "intermarium," they'll have security and resources without the EU's rules. If that were an option, the southern Slavic countries would ditch the EU in a heartbeat.
I thinks that's part of it. Europe kinda domesticated itself. The undomesticed variant of human were the rulers, and so many younger siblings of noble houses left for america that now about 25% of all Americans can directly trace their lineage to European nobility.
Another part is how much we mixed with Native Americans, which is ignored by both sides in the culture war. The left wants to pretend colonization was purely white people bad, so the fact that natives disappeared mainly due to intermarriage is ignored ; the right also ignores it because they don't want to think about how mixed they actually are. But its a fact... A very very large percentage (possibly most) of white Americans are **_both_** European nobility and Native American. There was a book that talked a lot about this, though more from a cultural point of view - I think it was "Lila" by the same author who wrote "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance" (his name escapes me). Basically he was saying that it is the native american attitudes that express culturally and linguistically that allow cause Americans to be so freedom oriented and also how we react to things emotionally, which is closer to Native American behavior than European.
We have a unique breed in America. It does make sense to protect it from dilution by limiting immigration. I think Australia makes a good example in support of this - they had a "white only" immigration policy for a long time, but it did nothing to protect them from becoming helpless and subservient, and now have an Orwellian surveillance state that is comparable to North Korea. So what did their immigration policy do for them? It looks like nothing. They're the same breed of domesticated farm human as the Europeans.
Studies show conclusively that happiness and abstinence from window licking are inversely correlated.
Ideally, do both. I try to use three pillows while sleeping, and I prefer to sleep on a hard floor - beds make my back ache. One pillow between knees, one under my lower back so that my hips are pushes forward somewhat, and one for my head off the the side in case I turn on my side. The one under my lower back is oftentimes actually a dog toy that's just the right size and firmness - if dog toy, not directly under spine, but off on the side that would ache otherwise. My upper torso is straight against the floor, which has improved my posture, while my lower back doesn't touch the floor.
If I do it right (meaning, I think about it purposefully before sleeping), I wake up with ninja energy as I do a ninja move bouncing into the air. It was difficult to sleep like that at first, but doing it caused my little muscles between ribs to all strengthen, so basically I got a strong back and healed the pain by strategically sleeping on the floor.
Actually, spoons do matter, but in a different way. Weight. A hefty spoon is worth its weight in spoon metal.
You should try it. You gotta try stuff to know if you like it.
So true about the engineers. Well, all of it, but that's super relatable for me. I started off college majoring in engineering - quit not because it was hard (it wasn't), but because I couldn't deal with all the intense autism in both the professors and students. I'm pretty sure I'm on that spectrum, but not like that.
Haven't you looked at a nice cold window in winter and wanted to lick it? Only if its glass, though.
Its good that you didn't say it, then. I was worried your npub might be too identifying for you to speak openly.
Build the peaceful alternatives, if possible.
What do you think might be the root problem?
Yeah, but I wanted to see what the hype is about. It does seem like its just doingvwhat briar already does, though.
Indeed, but unfortunately it looks like I can't do it at all. All install options in the github readme are for apple machines, which I don't use. And I don't want it on my computer, and idk how to unzip stuff on my phone and its not worth it to learn. So... Oh well.
Twitter only became popular after businesses joined and put their twitter name in advertisements. There was nothing normal about it. When businesses want bitcoin, they'll want options to get paid. Nostr is that. Twitter didn't advertise - the businesses that joined it did all their advertising. I remember it well. Nostr is only getting better ; X is only getting worse.
What would be a better name for this? "Yield" is not correct. #Bitcoin
To everything there is a season, and a time for every purpose under Heaven.
The season will come back. Don't stress or strain over it. It'll be back in its own correct time.
Also that's awesome that you did that.
Video can be faked. It could be faked before the LLMs, but now it can be faked perfectly at near zero cost.
I guess everything is terrorism now. Better not protest - they'll charge you with terrorism.
Maybe. We see these effects, and where there's smoke there's fire, but the purpose of the fire isn't known to someone who only sees the smoke. Just speculation... But I have a phrase that I say to myself quite frequently : "all true blessings first appear as curses ; all curses appear as blessings." People always choose maximal corruption. I think that should be the foundation of economics - like a version of the utility curve.
I just don't know enough to ascertain their intentions. They could have bad intentions, but God uses them to harden people against evil. Or they could have good intentions but they and everyone else turn everything good into bad by way of their laziness or inconsiderate self interest - corruption. How incredibly good would you need to be to cause only good effects in the world? How incredibly evil would you need to be to cause only evil effects? The world pushes back, pulls things into a middle.
I'd like to befriend one or a few of them to find out what's really going on. I'm not planning on helping with anything horrible... I just can't judge without direct knowledge.
Have you/y'all seen this?
Yep, and I love this note because because I just said exactly that (the top part - no joke, it was word for word the same) at a family gathering and no one believed me. They just reverted to "use sunscreen to not get cancer," like they didn't understand a word I said.
Ehhh what am I looking for? The friendly AI says she was 21
That lack of questioning... It's worrisome. I think my brother just shut down. I'm pretty sure he used to ask questions, be engaged with people, apologize when appropriate... But not anymore. Like growing up meant losing humanity. But I look at other people and they also don't ask questions. I mean, any questions, not just the self doubt questions. I wonder if its connected.
🤔 Elvis Presley was a real life psychic. Like, for real. A modern shaman - this isn't branding, he really was.
Ah that guy... I remember him. Statist. Or gave statist vibes.
All insurance is a criminal racket and anyone working insurance is complicit with criminal fraud and should be locked up immediately.
I thought it was me for years... So I spent the last 5 years trying to repair things with him. Well... I shouldn't go on about my problems. I just say I found out.
