    ya something I dont get is why humanity is OK with this ‘opting in’ to getting rid of all other forms of transit JUST to sit in a car and get unhealthy and probably die quicker.

    Our ancestors have been walking , running, or riding on animals or walking beside tired animals for thousands upon thousands of years…and …humanity has simply chosen to opt out of our ability to do so without examining the risks that this may pose?I feel that huanity has evolved to walk large distance or rather to expend energy when we go large distances (that includes biking and walking beside our tired animals) . So certainly humanity will be having to face some sort of ‘issue’ cause we have evolved to expend our energy when moving large distances rather than take an automobile , right?

    Like humans didnt evolve to survive repeated harsh blows to the head and we see that humans who keep on getting hit in the head from war training, domestic violence, american foot ball , hocckey or soccer have higher rates of being diagnosed with ALS and CTE.

    Humans also didnt evolve to live in such SUPER-individualiistic societies annd thats why so many people’s mental healths are failing them and we have increased deaths of despair . In fact the countries with the lowest population desnsities and with lower allocation of resources to mental health care have the highest suicide rates

    Humans also didnt evolve to take in large amounts of junk food but then not do cardiovascular exercise at all. Thats why heart diseases are the leading killer of people globally.

    There’s no ‘cost’ for us giving up walking? Certainly there muust be something. I guess increased severity and instances of heart diseases is one of those costs

  • I feel that Its better when you focus on things that you know that you have a close to 100% chance of achieving. Like doing a muscle up is a hard and fun skill to learn but obviously most people cant do it despite how fun it must be to do. But also it is definitely or close to 100% possible EVENTUALLY with years of consistent practice to do, right? Right.

    Losing your v-card? Getting into a relationship? Pft. You can try to do both of these things for your entire life and still fail even if you do everything right and are a smart , kind loyal , and humourous person. Some of the worst humans in history like mobutu, leopold III, karl malone , suharto, pol pot , and adolph shitler ALL had wives. And these a holes all had wives despite their wives and most other people on the planet knowing how selfish and deranged they were soooo… See? Dating is kinda random like that. The shittiest and most obnoxious humans of all times typically had a significant other of some sort … BUT THEN at the same time some of the most quiet, humble , kind humans of all time never met anybody who was interested in them. It just be random like that sometimes. It is what it is.

    I feel that if a person feels like they should give up on dating cause theyve tried for the last 40 or so years and have failed through mostly no fault of their own? Its up to them.Its never a completely good idea or a bad idea to give up on something like dating cause it depends on context and who you are in life, where you are in life, what you want in life, and who else is in your life and wants to potentially see you as a partner . If you want to give up? Then go ahead and do it. But you should give up cause YOU want to give up. You shouldnt continue to seek a partner cause of your parents’ or your community expectations of you or cause some sort of peer pressure. Do it for you. Give up for YOU…or dont give up for YOU.

    But giving up on things that simply require consistent long term effort that you will probably be able to do with a long enough consistent effort is just a bad idea most of the times IMO.

  • literally the correct take. EVERY single major website , YES INCLUDING THIS ONE , is very much run or funded by right-wingers.

    I can actually EASILY prove this. Suppose that I were to suggest that one of the current left-wing groups in existence right now were ’ supposedly correct’ for using tactics that are ‘supposedly not the most peaceful of tactics’ because the members of these groups tend to be the victims of initial, needless, malicious ‘not peaceful tactics’ from right wingers and/or capitalists - so therefore two wrongs make a right…supposedly of course.

    How fast do you think I would be banned from twitter, lemmy, youtube, reddit, instagram, fascbook, or any of these other major websites where human to human interaction is common?


  • the problem with chatgpt is that it cant answer your complex questions.

    Like suppose you have a question related to your cureent relationship with your friend or your lover or an acquaintance of yours or to one of their acquaintances and you and that person are ’ stuck ’ in an awkward situation or misunderstanding that is a one in a trillion situation and has probably only ever happened to you two or to another duo of people in history…what kind of answer could chatgpt give you that would be more specific than a human who can read the situation, compare it to their own past awkward situation and then give you a specific answer as to how they handled a similar scenario ? And lets just say its a situation that you should talk over or resolve between you and that person VERY soon.

    I will admit Ive only used chatgpt once so I have no idea how it handles complex scenarios involving actual emotional and sentient humans with each of our own lives, traumas, journeys, destinations, routines, and every other thing that usually comes with being a human.

    Am I right or wrong about this? Has chatgpt been able to do such complex analysis and complex suggestions to such situations?
