Мне чот в целом не кажется хорошей идеей транспортное средство, способное гонять 130, но для которого не нужны права :)

D:\side\>:idle:, software and hardware are knowable, in the sense that there are no unknown unknowns. And, you can always make any unknown known if you persevere enough. No such luck with human mind unfortunately.

To me, all that dom/sub thing is part of BDSM. Very much not everyone is into BDSM. I'm not into anything like this either, it's alien to me. And that's okay. Like with all other kinks, the only thing that's important is that these expectations should match between partners (or if your partner is into it, they need to know that you are not and be fine with respecting that — I met people like this and we still enjoyed each other).

Dr. Quadragon ❌, плазма не падает?

у меня с touhou странные отношения, с одной стороны от музыки из этих игр тащусь, но с другой когда-то попытался поиграть и вообще не зашло (и тот факт, что я не знаю японский язык, этому точно не помог)

хера ты прожорлив, аж прям 4 яйца, я себе обычно из 2 делаю

Так-то да, но сервер всё-таки как минимум рассчитан на работу 24/7 под полной нагрузкой, скомпонован максимально плотно и предназначен для установки в стойку. А ещё у них бывают специальные материнки со всякими там IP-KVM. А у более крутых ещё и всякие части с резервированием и горячей заменой.

The core problem is the commercialization of it all. Companies started wanting to sell computers and software (and show ads) to people who don't want to put in any effort to educate themselves how to use these technologies. This is how we got this relentless simplification.
Except some people just don't want tech anyway. I have an elderly relative who is essentially forced by the society to have a smartphone. It's quite predictable that she would sometimes ask me "Grisha, why is it not working well, can you take a look" and I'll see all kinds of nasty bloatware and adware she inadvertently installed. It happened on several occasions. I was able to put an end to this by setting up system-wide ad blocking via DNS like I do on my own devices.
This is what convinced me that the society needs to change to make the use of tech a choice, not a burden.

Erik Uden 🚩,

aren't we the brain

That's the thing, no one has an idea. We don't know the true nature of our own consciousness and we don't know how to even approach researching that because our own perception of what we call reality is all we know. We can't step "outside" of our own subjective experiences to take a third-person look. We are trapped here.
It might be the mainstream view that consciousness is indeed an emergent property that arises solely from the brain's physical makeup, that exists fully within the framework of our known laws of physics.
But it might as well be that consciousness, not spacetime, is the fundamental layer of the universe, and our perceived reality is our own collective hallucination of sorts.
I give a 50% chance of being true to each of these theories.
