Yeah? Well this is razzle dazzle camo I think we all know who’ll be seen last.

ProstheticBrain ,

I guess this is where the concept of the “nuclear family” comes from then? After the initial courtship hostilities, the escalation of the arms race is inevitable.

He’s the 37th of the Dirtnapbrian clan, I thought that was obvious.

I wouldn’t be at all surprised if the beauty filters were directly inspired by autotune, given that the first (I think?) app was called facetune.

That sounds an awful lot like a portmanteau of facetime and autotune.

Can you not tell the difference between memory and reality?

Don’t get me wrong, it would be absolutely incredible having such perfect recall that memories are indistinguishable from the present, I just don’t think that’s a trait many humans naturally possess.

ProstheticBrain ,

The burden of proof is on you there bud.

If you want to make extraordinary claims like “I came into your room and implanted your memories”, then you’re going to have to provide some evidence for that. I don’t need to do anything.

You’re also completely missing the point of the original post and my response. There was never any questions about whether memories are real, the question was whether the memory of a thing has the same value as the real time experience of a thing.

(Also, at least I’ve got a prosthetic brain, you’re clearly still on the waiting list :p)

You, me and every western philosopher for the last few hundred years all want an answer to this but as far as I know, the short answer is no - you can’t empirically prove anything exists outside of your own thoughts.

However, unless you particularly enjoy trying to answer that question, it’s simply more practical to accept as a fact, that your senses are telling the truth when they tell you something is real.

It’s an axiom, but axioms are helpful for allowing us to get on with living when we would otherwise just get stuck in a pointless loop of asking unanswerable questions.

That said, if you do enjoy the challenge of trying to answer these sorts of questions, you could probably start with Rene Descartes’ - Discourse on the Method. In that, Descartes kicks this whole topic off by asking “what happens if I systematically deconstruct everything I know to be real?” and eventually comes to the conclusion that yes, everything outside of our minds can be doubted but the one, irrefutable fact that holds up under any amount of scepticism, is that “if I can think, I exist”.

This is a pretty digestible article about the importance of the discovery of “cogito, ergo sum”/“I think, therefore I am”.

If you just want to make one, milder curry you could do a sambal on the side. It’s not Thai but it’s big in nearby countries like Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore etc.

It’s a bit like a much hotter siracha but there are loads of varieties, some have shaved coconut for a bit of texture and sweetness etc.

Here’s a basic one https://www.elmundoeats.com/en/how-to-make-malaysian-chili-paste-sambal/

Edit: forgot to say, sambals have similar flavours to Thai stuff, so lemongrass, chilli, coconut etc. Thought it would compliment nicely even if not strictly traditional.

Someone in 20 years: Say what you will about the sequels, at least they’re not the threquels.

ProstheticBrain ,

One swing, ahead of the sword

ProstheticBrain ,

What I’m getting at is that the way you’re talking about the sequels is exactly the way people spoke about the prequels when they came out.

I hated the prequels when they came out, I still think they’re basically unwatchable. But they weren’t aimed at me, and a whole new generation of SW fans grew up with a deep fondness for them.

I expect we’ll see the same thing with the sequels.

ProstheticBrain ,

And that’s Everything!

ProstheticBrain , (edited )

Me too buddy, me too… but they will, and I have hope that someone will find a way to do the same thing to the sequels that people have done to the prequels.

Edit: changed my wording

ProstheticBrain ,

Somebody’s not getting their catch of the day I guess?

ProstheticBrain ,

This is from The Never Ending Story, Op’s pic is from the Dark Crystal isn’t it?

Or are you just adding this to the trauma pile?

ProstheticBrain ,

This has to be canon right?

ProstheticBrain ,

I think what you’re asking about is called Archeological context.

The basic gist is that archeologists will be able to date not just the find itself, but the soil it’s in and other potential finds within the same layer of soil/around the site.

So you’re right, if you just found two Roman swords on a bench in the Cotswolds, you probably couldn’t infer from that that the Roman military had definitely been present. But if you find them in a specific layer of soil along with other Roman artifacts, that starts to build up context around the find. The more evidence you collect, the better able you are to put a date on when the swords arrived at your site.

Don’t know about terraria specifically, but it’s a sliding scale of how you like beef cooked right?

The mid section is the usual meat doneness from Well done to Rare

Going up it parodies loot rarity types from Rare to Mythic (maybe Unreal is one too?). The idea is that, going “more rare” than rare beef is

  • Rare - Rare beef
  • Epic - raw beef
  • Legendary - Live cow
  • Mythic - All the ancestral cow-like creatures that evolved into cow
  • Unreal - The primordial ancestor of all life on land

I’m making a note here: huge success

It’s because “catnip” is one word.

ProstheticBrain ,

But not every thing should be come two words just be cause you have the cap ability to add a space.
