why tf do moids keep calling things longhouse. like ok they all live in one big house and they’re matriarchal sometimes. so the idea is we own nothing and are ruled by women. so why is everything longhousian because some of these things are not matriarchal or even hivemind so what gives? i would think its the gradual watering down of words that happens but moids cant even give it a year before they start dumbing it down to “anything i don’t like or think is stupid”

>>2075235I love God because Jesus saved my life. He is good and loves us as his children. The reason there are terrible things is because humans have free will and are horrible to each other. He is not an intervening God. Also if you read the Bible with an open mind, you will find truth and instructions to live a good life. Forgiving others and yourself, grants you ultimate peace. Denying the material riches of this world leads you to true fulfillment. Being grateful for everything you have and experience will make life so much more rewarding. Being able to sacrifice yourself, denying your urges and trusting in the Lord will automatically lead you to a path of a good life.
A lot of new age cult scams also directly steal from the Bible. One example being how they say you can visualize and manifest things. This is literally called prayer.
Mark 11:22-25
“Have faith in God,” Jesus answered.
“Truly I tell you, if anyone says to this mountain, ‘Go, throw yourself into the sea,’ and does not doubt in their heart but believes that what they say will happen, it will be done for them.
Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.
And when you stand praying, if you hold anything against anyone, forgive them, so that your Father in heaven may forgive you your sins.

They sell non-alcoholic wine and beer as well in supermarkets, and they even started locally made "champagne". They want to drink and get drunk so bad but they can't so they do these weird alternatives. There's also this one drink that's popular during ramdan and is made from grapes if I'm not mistaken, but it's a bit fermented or something and if you leave it in the fridge for 3 days it actually becomes alcoholic, and some people boast about doing that and trying it to get drunk. Then they turn around and be like "we're soooo much better than the west because we don't get drunk and do bad stuff!!!!", yet, they're so obsessed with the idea of getting intoxicated because their lives suck ass so bad they want some relief or escape kek. They brought that on themselves though, so I have 0 sympathy for those retarded losers.

>>2074875the basic idea of an airplane is that it is designed to generate power (lift) in directions that allow it to over come gravity pulling in the opposite dorection.
the airplane has a bunch of moveable parts and surfaces (on the wings, tails etc) that can be adjusted so that they're always at the right angle to meet/counteract the various forces that apply to the plane (gravity wind, turbulence etc). that way the olane is always at the correct angle to stay up in the air. you can see an example in picrel, the moving parts are in color.
the plane can technically fly without an engine (gliding) but it won't be able to do controlled flight without some of the adjustable parts (like the stabilizers) bc the pilot won't be able to make inputs to compensate whatever forces apply to the plane.

>>2081796>>2081811Yeah it's hard to describe. Every time I tried to explain this feeling to other people they thought I was just egocentric. That's not it, I have no problem looking at things from other people's POV and I do realize everyone has their own life and there's nothing special about mine. I probably just can't find the right words. The thing is my own existence and perception of the world (in a general sense, not my specific way of seeing things) is baffling to me, and it's even weirder to think that every person is confined in their body and mind just the same and it's basically all they know. And of course you can try to see things from another person's perspective and empathize but it's still
your thoughts and feelings and
your perception of this person. It's not hard to imagine someone having a life completely different from your own or a completely different worldview (although it's also not something you can fully immerse in because it's filtered by yours to a certain degree), but it's wild (to me) that everyone has this "god" in them–not in the sense of inflated ego but in the sense of being the center of everything, exploring and in a way "creating" the world around them so to speak because they only know what they see and can comprehend, and they choose what to seek, and where to go, and what to do, and they experience and interpret it all in their own unique ways. And there are lots and lots of these "centers" or "gods" but where does it even come from? The consciousness itself is incomprehensible and it's even weirder to think that everyone has it. I wish I could elaborate why it feels so weird to me but I can't quite verbalize it yet.
>>2081821Kek anon, some people I'm sure do think other people are props but I feel like it's more about a sudden "conscious thought" (which is a stupid word combination) than the first thought about it ever. I mean, most people usually don't think much about lives of random people they encounter on the street, in the shop etc. even though they know these people don't disappear once they're out of their sight. I see it was coined by some author in 2012, maybe he did get this realization later in life and it blew his mind haha

That’s the only way this belief makes sense to me considering how violent and authoritarian some lefties are (“kill all terfs” “die cis scum” for example) They don’t want to rid the world of violent police, they just want the violent police to be working for them.

No. 2102063
>>2101942Other nonas' answers are good but I want to sperg out a bit. Their explanations describe how computers are able to use code, but it doesn't explain how those 1's and 0's are able to
mean anything. Even if code turns into binary, how are 1's and 0's physically able to do math?
Here's my attempt at an explanation:
A computer gets given a binary number in the form of electrical pulses. The computer is physically programmed to divide pulses into groups of a certain size (let's say 8 bits). The computer is also physically programmed to be able to copy bits (electrical signals) from specific locations in memory (RAM). It does all this via series of complex logic gates, which are physical electrical switches that are constructed to behave differently based on their inputs.
A CPU is programmed to be able to copy values that are in RAM. For example, it might go detect the number 00101001 in the memory location 0000 (the default), and copy it into its "instruction" box.
The computer is physically programmed to send the first 4 bits inside the instruction box to a device that can read that electrical signal and "match" it to another device that has different behavior based on how it's constructed. So, it would take 0010 and match it with, say, the device to "load" or copy a value into another place. It will perform that instruction on the second half of the number from memory (1001 from 00101001).
In other words, the machine receives the input 00101001, and the components physically activated by the first half of the input cause logic gates to activate that cause the second half of the input to be stored in memory. When the instruction is done, everything will turn off, and the computer will go physically copy the value in the next memory location (in our example, 0001, since it comes after 0000), and it will do this process for the next instruction, which could also be "load," but could also be something like "add" or "multiply" or "change current memory location."
These instructions are known as machine language instructions. Humans can understand these and can technically program in machine code directly, but it is extremely difficult to do so. Languages like assembly convert to machine code, and languages like C convert to assembly, and languages like Python convert to C. So, modern programmers might write something in python, which eventually gets converted into machine code, which is really just a way to represent how we've physically programmed computers to respond to different series of electrical impulses (binary numbers).
I like the crash course computer science series that I'm linking quite a bit. It's a bit flawed because it jumps from a great introduction to the origins of computing in the first two episodes to a level of detail that most university students aren't expected to fully understand, but it's still very good overall.
Watch the first two episodes of this series; there's no better starting point for beginning to truly understand computers imo, besides maybe a full-length course at a good university.
If you like and understand it, you should seriously consider studying computer science, or at least watching more.

>>2101942>>2102063Computer chips are physically made of tiny little circuits that make elctricity stop or start flowing, called logic gates.
If you start with a pool of water and a series of branching water channels comes from it, you can set up the water channels so that the water flows into a particular endpoint. If you set up the 'water channels' (logic gates) in a way that represents the laws of how numbers behave, then you can get the water to do math. The first computer actually was a mechanical device that did math with cogs.
Obviously you can do more with electrical circuits than with water or cogs. Picrel is a circuit called a NOT gate, and the chip has been set up so that if the Y light is on, the Z light is always off, and vice versa.
You can set up these physical pieces of logical rules to do simple math, and if you add more, they can do complicated math. You then use binary machine code (the 1s and 0s) to change what logic gates are used or not, so your logic gate setup machine is actually versatile and can be changed to do what you want. Eventually you can use them to do things like represent the pixels of your husbando on an electric display.

Digital art is insane witchery to me, I don't get it. I think traditional art just, kind of makes more sense to me? You grab the pretty colors and pencils and make a drawing using your hands and art stuff on a surface, you use some techniques here and there and there you go, a cool picture.
But digital art is confusing to me, I get so overwhelmed, I can't even understand how to use the controls to do anything other than the simplest doodles you've ever seen.
I mean, I'm a hobby artist anyways and I'm not good at art in general, but I was always gotten shilled digital art as something sooo simple and easy.
I can't even color stuff like if I was doing a digital coloring book because it always looks weird to me.

>>2103824Irish people historically got discriminated against on basis that they're secretly black but white passing, due to some crazy racist "evolutionary theories" about how their skulls and black people's skulls are similar, so they must be black, and therefore should be discriminated against. They faced discrimination in both Britain and America when they immigrated there to escape the discrimination, if I'm not mistaken. It's why there's Irish representation in American shows sometimes, and why it's weird when an Irish (red head) character gets replaced by a black person, because it's perpetuating the belief that "irish=black". Picrel is stuff from that era. Hope this answered your question.

>>2108328It's just easier to find other points of view while talking anonymously than when you're reading books or when you try to start a dialogue with others because politics and religion are topics that most people don't want to talk about with their family/friends etc.
It's more unbiased when the other person can just speak freely without any sort of social repercussions, like when you post online and then you have a bunch of incels sending rape threats or trying to doxx you because you said that moids aren't as sexualixed as women, or that Islam isn't a peaceful religion because honor killings are disgusting.

>>2108342They really aren't valuable because it's all just anonymous sources, which is why most people just use this method to talk about deep themes to just scratch an itch, or to just say something about the topic, specially when it comes to religion.
I honestly haven't noticed anons really talking about science beyond the basics (reproduction, "my head hurts", cancer) and telling people to go to the doctor because medfagging (at least on cow boards) is bannable and honestly I'm sure medic anons know that they can't just diagnose faceless people.
But yeah, sometimes anons just want to talk about something or say something even if they know their opinions aren't valuable sources, it doesn't really matter in the grand scheme of things after all.
We can all just close the tabs and get a book on religion or science and read any sides of the rubics cube, but it's still fun to see what the anons on the funny cow boards have to say about something.

And the perceived inevitable should have happened by time you're in your 30s. They think women are npcs, it's beyond their imagination and understanding that a woman could actively choose to be single, a woman could only ever be single and childless because she was unfortunately not able to get a man.

Idk, I would change the symbol for something different, it feels unfair to use the rainbow when it's supposed to represent gay people.

Boomers and Xoomers' obsession with irl socializing, to them is a life or death situation. Keep in mind that I'm a young millennial and didn't have internet till I was 10 but I was a painfully shy kid so I always hated small talk and forced socializing situation, I only had one friend is school and many in other schools because I liked to talk about common stuff and not the "hi what's up" type conversation but it was never a problem to me, I like my own company and being lost in my thoughts but after working retail and offices, I moved to a new city and I was looking for a full remote job, mind you, I'm from a country that realized that remote was a thing during covid, when I posted that, a flock of older people came to me and started telling me "But what about socializing?"
I don't like to socialize because I'm forced to lol, I'm at work to work, in fact in the office I worked before I was one of the best performers because I didn't waste time gossiping on smoke breaks. Older people love to say that younger people are the ones always on they damn phone am i right dudes?? but they're the ones always on it, back to the topic, no one of these retards was being helpful to me, only commenting about how I'm a sociopath.
I want a full remote job because I don't like to waste time and money on transportation but to them this is absurd and sign that I'm probably not fit to work at all because muh socializing, always in that office one of these retards went to my boss asking me if I could talk to him, why do you need me to talk to you? Why can't you see I'm working? Do you actually have friends? People love to say that I'm friendless but why do they feel the need to bond with every group of people they meet? I don't feel alone at all and I have a lot of friends that I meet on weekeds, you know, after goddamn work. He couldn't understand why I didn't like to talk or gossip. I know I need to be social to go on but there's a difference in between formal communication and people forcing you to be in their social circle or "work friends", leave me the fuck alone.
I highly value my relationships and I don't like to waste time and energies in relationships that will go away once I change job or get out of a store, I'm glad that these gens are retiring, they're not even that useful in professional positions anyway.

Why do men lose any and all manners or decency when they’re trying to chat up a girl? I went to a friends birthday last night and one of her goober coworkers zeroed in on me and spent all night invading my space, talking over me, and called me a bitch to my face twice. Even two of his friends tried to tell him to tone it down. I didn’t give him a single smile all night because he was acting like a mannerless boor but the whole time he was gawking and grinning at me like we were flirting. This isn’t the first time it’s happened either., but it’s always the short/bald/ugly ones that do it the most. I wish they could just be normal or leave me alone.

>>2165099>>2165100>>2165117>>2165120Godness, I just find pet owners morally questionable. That's all. I don't like pet ownership as a concept and unfortunately, because I do wish it wasn't the case, I find that almost every pet owner I've encountered either
>smells bad>lives in an enviroment that smells bad>is covered in fur>lives in an enviroment covered in fur>low grade psychopathic>retarded regarding their pets>narcissistic >hypocritical >very irresponsible>delusionalI disdain pet ownership and how it negatively interplays with social aspects of animal ethics, its perception of living creatures (such as the instillment of artifical humanity) and animal consumption. Owning another animal in the ways that that pet owners do is unnatural. Most pet owners shouldn't own pets, like 65%-78% of them shouldn't. I'm not even a vegan. I will eat almost any animal if given the chance, I love meat and have more respect for the local pig farmers than I do for a dog/cat owner. I just personally believe we shouldn't have domesticated dogs and cats the way we have done so far and the people who are apart of that social complex are retarded.
