Apparently the Aussie police knew that one of the gunmen was connected to an Islamic State cell already since 2019, but didn't do anything about it. There needs to be more competent police and people on a watch-list shouldn't be allowed a gun license.

I'm an average man. Those that make me a below-average woman?

There are some privileged few who's life situation is such that it doesn't really matter what they study. They are born into privilege and they like going to school. If you live in a country like Denmark where university is free and you get paid to go, then you can afford to be less serious I guess. You see them complaining about splurging on text books. Imagine that 🌹 But this thread is about learning languages. Let us stop derailing for now.

You do very little actual philosophy within academia. Just you thinking deeply about serious questions about your life, like how to get a girlfriend, is going to be more substantive philosophically than most what you learn in university (because it matters to your actual life). The point is that there are much better degrees than philosophy if you have serious goals. They are good at teaching intellectual rigor though.

Academic philosophy is mostly scholarly and historical. It's boring and I'm saying that as someone who loves philosophy. There are no jobs that require a philosophy degree specifically except becoming a philosophy professor, but that is a kind of incestuous career structurally. A medical ethicist is a medical degree. Your better off getting a law degree if you want to work with ethics.

You will definitely learn something from a philosophy education, but it won't be a "lean" education. Most of it is essentially philosophical history. Your not going to remember most of nuances and ideas of the various concepts and philosophers and it mostly doesn't really matter unless it is your autism hole. What Kant thought about duty is the academic philosophy equivalent of the mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell. You don't really practice philosophizing that much. The real value of a philosophy education is the rigor, rationality and language they instill in you. You gain a heightened sense of objectivity, making you better at detecting nuances and turning points in logic. It's useful for anything communicative and logical, like programming, law work, arguments and debates, etc. The issue is that it is not really worth 3-5 years of school + debt when the education itself has so much fat and is so contrived. The biggest regret of graduates is not studying something more profitable. I would only recommend philosophy as a minor subject if there's no alternatives more relevant to your goals.

Imagine having to read 100+ pages of that kind of nonsense every week. That is your average academic philosophy education. And real philosophical texts are even harder to comprehend than that.

For whom it should concern in matters of factual understanding, both conceptually, linguistically and ultimately philosophically, there are a number of dissimilarities relative to the conceptualization of theoretical attainment of the sort attentively and academically sound. It's a matter of simple absorption frankly. Whether or not one where to effectively attain elucidation to the aforementioned standard in a manner most conducive to one's pedagogy hinges on specific inquiries, a) the concept of knowledge, b) the accruement of novel ideas, c) idiosyncratic engrossment, and finally d) the capacity for nuanced internationalization of abstraction. Infering the notion, or notional, philosophical and philosophy of principles and metaphysical acclaims in regard to the likes Kant, Hume or various other men of letters, sages and scholars of abstraction (not to otherwise bias against the presupposition of women within the domain of philosophical abstraction, but merely referring exclusively to the aforementioned account to which cooks can cook). The underlying premise, both backwards and forwards, is entitled to a degree of serious consideration relative to the notion of witticism inherent to particular abstractions. Forwards because for there to acclaim of a modest degree, and backwards, because the exercise of intellection requires naught but esteem. The premise, as outlined, is a chain of notions, I all but attend ardently. You can assume, and rightfully so, presently a stir of commotion of the aching sense. It is no mistake. The awareness of wretchedness is naught but temporal, yet an earnest gesture of a ground not conducive to one's pedagogism as formerly outlined. If, whatsoever, the degree to which the exertion of a certain inclination towards inner absolution is questionable, but not lost on one's actual grasp. Thereby, it is better to leave godhood to gods as opposed to the absolution of haphazard subject matter of the contextual written kind. I feel it is a most important matter.

Linux users jerk off to the terminal.

I was once considering trolling a little bit by writing like Kant but that would be too much effort.

It's needs to be stupid easy and play all games in existence without fuss.

I wonder how people's opinion on MLMs will change once they run out of investment capital and have to start making a profit. Suddenly using MLMs come with a significantly greater cost to the user. It's probably one of the reason they are so horny for more investment dollars, so they can extend that period where MLMs provide more value than ever and insert themselves into businesses and daily use as much as possible. Optimize the squeeze.

It's a shame because it makes academic philosophy as a study unbearably tedious. It makes philosophy in general seem like drivel since academia culturally has all of the prestige. It's a grift that university is treated as the be-all and end-all of knowledge when they are so corrupt in terms of incentives. People just drink the kool-aid. It should be obvious that philosophy isn't inherently confusing stuff.

The crab people live up above in them mansions 🦀

I don't feel like Linux is quiet there just yet, but it's getting closer. I honestly look forward to dump Windows one day for a less bloated, younger and sexier OS.

Last time I checked it cost Sora about 5 dollars to make one clip to make. But you usually have to make multiple videos beford you get something remotely watchable. Insane expense all for a meme of Michael Jackson stealing nuggies. We are currently in the venture capital stage, burning through investments like coal.

University system is so shameless with these scam degrees. Imagine going into debt for thousands of dollars so you can learn how to vibe code 🌷

Calling it "AI" has to be one of the biggest investment grifts in history. MLMs as a whole feel like a grift. Its actual value is completely disproportional to the amount being invested in. Where's the morbillion dollars in shitty memes and ChatGPT? They are yet to make an actual profit.

Technology and infrastructure are required to exploit and turn natural resources like coal and land into value. That is something only a company can really do, so they do deserve compensation for that. Not that I disagree with disinsentivizing rent seeking behavior via tax. There's too much rent seeking, especially of land.

Reading academic philosophical texts makes you feel like you don't know how to read as an adult.

Islam is written as a rule set for a medieval society. It makes sense to perhaps avoid eating pigs in the middle of a desert where sanitation isn't the greatest. Our survival standards rise, thus much of Islam is outdated as a guide for living.

But people ARE their culture. If you attack any ideology you attack its ideologues by proxy by virtue that your undermining their identity. I think Islamophobia is going to be to certain extent inevitable, with the terrorism of Islamic extremists in the recent past and the backwardness of certain majority Muslim countries. The solution is that people just need to feel that their borders are secure and solid and that their values aren't being compromised. So no honor killings, genital mutilation, burqas, etc. Respect the liberal culture, etc. Basic stuff which are already mostly present to be fair. There was a recent incident in Holland where a Muslim family conspired to and murdered their daughter because she refused to wear a hijab. They are all in prison now but they really should've gotten the death penalty in my opinion. Politically, that would calm some of the fascisation of locals. The trend of the progressive treating the political issue of Muslim integration as if it is not an issue at all backfires as it hurts their credibility and subsequent trust in institutions. Progressives seem very aware of how easily people can develop islamophobia. It's why they covered up the rape scandal in Cologne. It is also probably a big reason why feminists don't really criticize Islam much (in fact, you see a bunch of attempts at whitewashing the concept of hijab for example, to avoid the issue). But then you got to question if there is perhaps is some legitimate cultural incompatibility to a certain extent that needs to be acknowledged. But Muslims do gradually secularize as they grow up in western countries. I've met a bunch of Muslim guys who the only thing they are really pious about is not eating pork. You still see them drink and fuck casually. Getting into combat sports and shit. They are probably less strict on boys though, I imagine.

You couldn't find a less Muslim immigrant either LOL. It's like if Apu from the Simpsons stopped 9/11.

You can litterally sue the government and win in the US. You have nothing compared to that in China.

Most of these guys where apparently gun nuts. They probably wanted to know what it actually felt like to shoot someone.
