Delay, Dissent, Depose?

For the same reason that a little fire and big fire are both fires but a small rock is a pebble while a big rock is a boulder. Fire is more about what something is doing while rocks are more about what they are.

Considering people exist who can, by hand, create art that appears photorealistic to the naked eye... Yeah I'm gonna slap a big false on this question. Lol

The biggest challenge, for a capable individual, is knowing enough to do so.

The disturbing part of this idea is that once humans create a computer similar enough to our own brain, it will just inherently be conscious. "Organic" or not.

Hadn't really thought of it that way before. I've considered the possibility of an exterior source before but not that it might have something to do with sleep.

These days I'm more leaning to consciousness being the result of some convergence of our neural architecture.

It's like asking the question of, "where's the user environment of a computer?"

Well, it's in the RAM... Except it's also streaming through the CPU, oh also it's on the monitor but that isn't what it actually looks like, however it actually originates from the SSD.

None of these individual components matter in a truly meaningful way without all of them. It is the same with the brain, take out any part of it and effectiveness is diminished or outright bricked.

Astlibra: Revision

I'd put a conservative minimum first playtime at 60 hours... For slower, completionist, players? 80-100 hours.

If that first playthrough is on the impossible setting?... I don't wanna think about it. Lmao

Ha! Nah, Federal law doesn't require a lunch period, or breaks, at all. It's all state side.

Only thing is that if an employer gives a short break, like 5-20 mins, it must be paid and included in overtime.

Series increases voltage, parallel increases capacity. the more you know

I had mine at 26 and wasn't even married. No kids. Had one interview where the doctor made sure I was properly informed, had the procedure done like the next week or something when the schedule had an opening.

In a very conservative state too. Not Missouri conservative... But definitely not California either. Lol This was nearly 10 years ago. No regrets.

This article is a mirage.

Yeah my motherboard is an old tomahawk b450 and its bios looks like "newer" version.

I hate to say it but maybe the newest bios is going to strip away some of the features and the better looking one is actually the old version? Perhaps to cut down on development costs because profits like always? I can only speculate.
