Just happened to pick up this book the other day as well. Not necessarily expecting that much from it, but at the end of the day the title grabbed me enough lol. Good to hear you liked it.

Dude just backup your stuff properly lol. The only way any of this ever happens is having a single point of failure.

An interesting document: https://yaofu.notion.site/How-does-GPT-Obtain-its-Ability-Tracing-Emergent-Abilities-of-Language-Models-to-their-Sources-b9a57ac0fcf74f30a1ab9e3e36fa1dc1

There exist countless discords within the overall psychedelic / spiritual / self-help space that have many actualized members a part of them. They are not mindless cults, they are just normal servers with normal people and operate just fine, and that's the reality of it. There will always be a demand for one because this is an intrinsic desire of how communities operate and what members want- they want to interact with one another. Rather than try and find fellow community members through these many other servers, this particular one just happened to use the messaging feature on this forum directly, which went on to spawn this topic / thread. Leo is of course free to suppress whatever he feels like within his own community, but the demand will never go away and these servers will always exist.

LMAO nice one

So weird to have stuff like this happen on clearly educational videos when I also follow active youtube channels that literally livestream themselves straight up taking psychedelics recreationally and nothing has happened to them. Selective enforcement like this really sucks and is just confusing.

Based on the serotonin receptor definition of psychedelics, it is not, and personally I don't see how you can compare a marijuana high to a proper psychedelic experience, but apparently people do compare them, Leo included.

This is exactly it. What you see here is simply the current low-hanging fruit of the art industry feeling threatened by natural progress and the necessity to adapt.

Of course I am. Literally everybody enjoys art in some form. This is such a ridiculous holier-than-thou comment.

lol exactly this Countless real, professional artists are already out there in the world using this technology to speed up their workflows and massively extend their creative capacities. Just goes to show what a nonsensical bias you have. Don't push your nonsense onto us. This is nothing more than you choosing to trivialize your own art. You can have fun with that, more power to ya. The rest of us will continue enjoying the beauty around us as we always have.

Honestly this. Work on self-honesty and mental clarity exercises. Accept yourself, where you're at, and what you need to work on.

Exactly this lol.

"shitty life" can certainly be a spectrum but it will catch up with you one way or another. everybody dies and has to confront these metaphysical truths sooner or later. you are just delaying the inevitable. having a somewhat comfortable life with your survival needs met does not get around this. in fact that just makes it all the more important you spend the time and energy you do have wisely.

You can't speak of infinity and then cherry pick. How much longer are you going to continue subjugating yourself to this complete victim mentality.

Just because the ultimate truth is everything is one, doesn't in any way mean it's easy or accessible for your current ego / incarnation to just access another being's thoughts. If you could easily do things like that, this reality never would have felt very real or grounded at all in the first place, and your current ego / self probably never would have even formed. Like why would you keep existing as your current identity if you could just become Tom whenever you wanted, or become some alien on a distant planet whenever you wanted. Your life wouldn't even matter or be significant in any way. Your current incarnation is more significant than you're giving it credit.

I'm not familiar with indonesia or its culture at all but holy shit this is extreme.

This is exactly it lmao.

As an attempt to maybe get back to the OP, I've been in various relationships constantly through my life ever since my college days, but at the moment I am taking a few years off to work on myself, so you could say I'm in a similar situation.

hahah there we go Yeah pretty much this.

Getting a bit too abstract for the conversation I think. MGTOW does exist as a specific community with specific ideologies, that's just the reality of it. Again it is not just some generic idea of "not dating for awhile".

? ? Really didn't expect this from Ulax. Oh well.

Jesus christ you're really falling down the rabbit whole aren't you. Great. Well I'll leave you to it.
