If I'm being manipulated from on-high by some otherworldy powerful, possibly eldritch abomination, then that's actually way more metal than just being some dude.

edit: I was supposed to criticise the relationship advice, got it... Yeah, I'm divorced.

As someone who's not been in an real relationship this is my fear as well, even if I find someone how will I keep them engaged enough for a lifetime. I rarely even text the women I get digits from, I'm just very comfortable being alone and now it's getting problematic

[–] volvoxvsmarla@lemm.ee 2 points 1 week ago (2 children)

But if you feel comfortable, why is it problematic?

We gossip about our coworkers/classmates /people we know in common or talk about shared hobbies and upcoming plans together.

Nope. Free will is an illusion that we have because we live in a world that's too complex to predict. We are a product of our circumstance.

  • Nope.
  • Why ?
  • Because I said so. Go to your room and do your homework.

To a (modern) compatibilist, free will is the capacity to respond to the same stimulus with different reactions, i.e. it’s equivalent to the cybernetic concept of degrees of freedom. As such, answer:

“You can poke a ball-point pen and it’s going to do the same thing, over and over again: Extend and retract the lead. It is predictable because its internal complexity is below the threshold of chaos.” Then proceed to repeatedly poke them in the arm to see how many different reactions they have to that. Mentally prepare for a tickle fight.
