"China will save us" is only one step less delusional than "Elon will save us".

If china was good they wouldn't produce so much trash

Harbouring sentiments that do not unconditionally support NATO, NAFO or uKKKraine here in Estonia are well...

"Controversial" is putting it VERY mildly, to say the least.

1. I do not care for TC69 thought

Maybe this is less controversial since her brief return during the dunk struggle. Basically my gender identity was in a sensitive place during that time, and being told to shut up, sit down and engage with gender theory I wasn't ready for was not helpful. In fact, I'd say it was actively harmful. I'm very stubborn when people order me to do something "because I said so" which was the predominant tone with TC69. That more or less shut down any willingness I had to explore gender on hexbear for a while.

2. Incels should receive compassion

Inceldom is primarily a maladaptive attitude driven by pain and alienation, and while that shouldn't preempt people expressing how incel behavior harms them we should still remember it as pretext for its existence. I was incel-adjacent as a young teen and what kept me from going full blown alt-right PragerU gamergate was compassion from others and the opportunity to grow as a person.

Light is a product of condensed space-time. Matter is condensed light. The speed of light is a constant, but a relative constant. You just need to change your realtive spacetime environment. We live in a fish bowl of a relatively constant temperature. #heatdeathoftheuniverse

Spacetime has properties like solid, liquid, gas. It is elastic. It flows. It boils. It freezes. It's cellular in nature. It vibrates.

The speed of light is relative to the density of spacetime. This bridges the 2D fields that make up our 3D reality. It's a grand unifying theory with string theory and general realativity works all the way down. We just haven't developed the tech. All the fish know is the tank they're in. To us we can try to think we're standing still and things only move at one pace, but it's realtive. We broke the sound barrier. We can break the light barrier, or even skim in between the cells, but we need to learn how to probe and manupulate the fabric. We really haven't done much probing of the fabric. We're still regulating ourselves to percision slingshots in moving around in this fabric. (That's just my lament on not seriously developing more than just pushing mass and not refueling craft which would be a lot easier and cheaper if we put batteries and ion engines or field thrusters on craft).

We're getting there with like Higg-Boson concetrate on one side (micro) and JWST finding "older than is possible" and really stretched out extreme red shift unverses (macro). There is also noticable time-space "gravitational" waves.

You don't have gravity, the bending of spacetime without mass. Why is that? One would think that there's a realtionship there. Light can add or subtract from mass, yet it us massless. More like we don't know why. There's a lot of that too. We witness it. We don't know WHY, but here's an odds chart from running experiments and witnessing. It certianly points to there is a realtionship between mass, light, spacetime.

The great attractor is either a hole in the bubble of boiling space.

Think it's nuts? NGT is seriously thinking we might all exist in a black hole. Or what I call boiling space. I think that's how mass is made. Black holes don't need to be huge. They could be quantum. I think these are found in Stars and gas giants but they are quickly overwhelmed snd collapse. Come to think of it....neutrinos might be related to this. Hopefully the new detectors can make some correlations besides light flashes. Can you imagine if China is the one that comes up with the Philosopher's Stone and manipulates light and spacetime to make matter?

Going to have to get there if we want to be a Type 1+ civilization.

There is some thing about the fractal nature of the universe and everything you need to know about the universe you can find in a cup of coffee with creamer.

There are no material objects in the traditional sense. Taking contemporary physics seriously leads to a metaphysical view on which information-theoretic structures like patterns are the fundamental objects in our ontology. Ordinary objects like tables and chairs are just very stable patterns.

This might just be me being ace, I don't want to be telling other people how to live their lives. That said I find it extremely difficult to want spend time around people in polycules, I don't see the appeal and I really don't get the dynamic.

One ply toilet paper is fine. There does exist super terrible one ply that is cheap and scratchy and rough, but #notalloneply

Music is getting worse and anyone with a certain degree of historical knowledge would agree with me

I hate public transport. It's always noisy and stinky and overcrowded and contains people.

Wanna be cramped in this shaking prison for 2 hours a day that will most likely make you sick? Yeah, sounds great, m8

I just wanna be able walk places, I hate driving and taxis too. Bikes and scooters are the devil's work and UNNATURAL.

I've essentially never seen anything from the sphere of "parapolitics" that actually appears to impart any useful practical knowledge for understanding the past or predicting the future, at best it appears to be a masturbatory hobby that lets you be smug about JFK for 50+ years straight, at worst it makes you some annoying asshole who goes around saying shit like "denying the existence of snuff films is leftist flat earth" for attention.

Also Programmed To Kill is a very stupid book.

I actually don't respect religion at all and could never be 100% compatible with a religious person

We’re on Lemmy, so neither does communism.

I'M IN POLAND, IT'S DEFINITELY COMMUNISM.

“Enlightenment” is a real physical human possibility (but not necessarily how religious people describe it) that is compatible with dialectical materialism.

Open source pushed me toward ml theory. In a bad way.

Like since log4j, a lot of foss can’t be relied on without significant public investment.
