Butters

Somebody colored in this footage from around the world from the early 1900s. It's fascinating footage. But the people look so happy? I'd be miserable if I had to live in those times. Why do they all look so happy? There must have been a much stronger sense of community back then. But just imagine the hard manual labor these people had to do just to survive. No automation, nothing that comes close to our modern standards of living, just an endless grind.

These are wonderful This one is more redpill / masculine content if you're into that sort of thing: Very inspirational Youtube series: Hyper orange business advice, quite unhealthy excess but I still learned from this channel: Similar as Charlie but the original Sam Ovens channel: Pretty decent success coaching:

I bet that first prototype sucks. You come home to broken dishes and your dog's dead.

The point of the video is not to learn macro economics but to help shape a more abundant mindset around money.

I'm horribly uneducated on the topic, but I listened to this podcast episode which sort of shaped my ideas and gives me SOME understanding of Putin's motives. The western media only ever demonizes him, rightfully so, but this helped me understand a different point of view. https://open.spotify.com/episode/4GYSPbnvorqFK0DdiJ6iBF By the way, this is an excellent podcast, mostly biographies. I learned a ton from these episodes; Steve Jobs, Napoleon, Arnold Schwarzenegger and a bunch more.

Most people who I used to label as narcissists I've been able to re-contextualize. Now I just recognize my own selfishness for what it is instead of reflecting it on others with such a silly label. Much healthier.

It's very easy to be a hypocrite, it comes naturally as you have desires and survival needs. Like if I want to go out and socialize, be loud, make noise, but then when somebody else does it when I want to have quiet, I judge them. Basic survival bias, you do it just as much.

Not rationally, but why can't you experience money as infinite? Can you experience compassion as infinite? Joy? Love? Relaxation?

You should watch Wolf of Wallstreet 😁

The thing is, they could use AI to improve audio quality of original talks, it'll probably get more views too. I don't understand the need to create new scripts and use Alan Watt's voice for that. It's disturbing.

Interesting thought. So increasing quality of life, advances in medicine, social matters, spiral dynamics doesn't increase happiness? Then what's the point of those things? I wouldn't want to live in any time in the past to be honest, it just seems like a bad deal. But 100 years into the future, wired up to some VR glasses 24/7 like I'm in the Matrix? Probably not. So I guess I have a current-time bias.

Anyone on ozempic / semaglutides for weight loss? Any noticeable side effects or concerns?

What does the progress look like? I've been doing kundalini yoga for these past few months. I feel energy, it gets circulated through my body. Yesterday had such a strong focus and stronger ability to visualize my dream life in Bali, pulling the feeling of paradise into the present. This morning I woke up and had this awakening of God being conscious of itself. It only lasted a second. Fell back asleep. Today felt so low in my energy, overstimulated. Coffee does nothing anymore. It wasn't until I jerked off, ate carbs and watched some entertainment that I felt normal again. My visualizations yesterday were so strong that the present just feels like a dream. But it feels a bit ungrounded.

Yeah exactly. I'm really just focused on building my business and then moving to South East Asia for a while. I feel much better today, maybe it was just the weather, I have no way of knowing this.

You can do this with AI. (the blog issues not the course 😂)

Has anyone else tried the Grok mobile app in voice mode? It's pretty creepy. So unlike ChatGPT, which voice model is optimized to be truthful and helpful, Grok's voice model is optimized for engagement. This is a slippery slope, because what this means is it'll work to keep you talking. It will stimulate emotions in you, and it yelled at me. I was using it in "Therapy" mode, which makes it even worse. Your brain can't tell the difference between talking to an AI or a real human. With ChatGPT, I know it's an AI and treat it as such. With this, it made me feel bad and it yelled at me, using my personal information I gave it against me. Thankfully I didn't give it any real information, but most people will. Pretty uncanny if you ask me, especially if you're expecting the AI to be truthful and helpful. Grok web is really good and one of the better LLMs I've used.

Curious whether of not Donald Trump receives any Karmic Punishment for his behavior. It appears that when a heart-centered individual hurts another person through their actions they receive some sort of Karmic Punishment. Why doesn't this seem to apply to Trump? Either a) karma doesn't exist, it's a fantasy. Therefor karma is a spiritual fantasy, not a system. Or b) karma is a system but is so complex, it works in ways we cannot comprehend. For instance, not through linear time. If the latter, then there must be some consciousness out there who CAN see the Karmic concewuences happening right now.

This is indeed annoying. Never had this issue on Pornhub.

This guy does wonderful NLP and energy work seminars

Nobody here talking about 3IAtlas is crazy.

It's nice to be more productive in this way. The main problem is where he says you won't lose your keys anymore because the camera is always on the you can simply ask the glasses. That's a problem, because the part of the brain that remembers where you left your keys will stop functioning. As a result you'll probably lose your keys more often. After some time you won't be able to function without the glasses. If you think Ai makes people not think for themselves, glasses are worse.

I've now watched 3 full hours of this video, it's quite good. I think I had this insight: I am equal to Hitler, but of course I see myself as much better. I view myself as the ideal self, but this is an illusion that can only be broken by caring about truth. In the absolute, my entire way of being is equal to Hitler. Me seeing myself as better than Hitler is the whole problem. Is this a good way of looking at it you think?

If a billionaire, say Warren Buffet, gives all his money to charity, is he more aligned with truth than the billionaire who gives it to his kids? After all, social justice (as a value) is not truth you said.
