What is the reasoning that you believe that your consciousness can't arise out of physical matter?

[–] Wrufieotnak 10 points 1 month ago

Oh for sure, that might be the case. But everything already written in some holy book or told in some ritual now definitely lacked those sophisticated machines, making all their content moot and you can safely disregard them.

So due to the lack of any information, you can't prepare and therefore can't expect anything. So it's better to be good for its own sake, then trying to appease some bronze/iron age divinity.

Those two aren't mutually exclusive.

In fact, Pyroceram is according to Wikipedia a glass-ceramic.

It is a glass which has a special composition and was heated so much, that it loses some part of its glass character but retains some other. So calling it a glass is not wrong.

Oh, that might explain it then. Strange that the glass blower didn't know that.

Pyrex is fraud!

I bought two Pyrex bowls and went to a glass blower to get them modified. The first one shattered and the glass blower then looked at both of them under polarized light: they both showed strong signs of internal stress. The glass blower was really angry and accused the producer of cheating, because the color was also a slight green, which meant iron was in there, which should not be the case. According to the glass blower in the professional line Pyrex seems to be worth something, but for normal customer? Not really.

You can read about the context of Don't Ask Don't Tell on Wikipedia.

Or the article itself also explains why the other commentator wrote that ;)

Leider muss ich die Aussage des Artikels als falsch bezeichnen. Das Problem ist folgendes:

PFAS sind eine Gruppe von Verbindungen mit Millionen von verschiedenen Einzelsubstanzen. Was in der Studie gemacht wurde ist, dass nach gezielten Einzelsubstanzen gesucht wurde und diese nicht gefunden wurden.

Sie haben auch probiert, die Umsetzung von PFAS zu unbedenklicherem Fluorid zu messen, allerdings konnten dort nur rund 80% gemessen werden.

Das Temperatur die einzelne PFAS Verbindung kaputt machen kann ist schon lange bekannt. Das Problem ist immer noch die Bedingungen zu finden, bei denen nicht auch andere PFAS gebildet werden, sondern ausschließlich unbedenkliche Zersetzungsprodukte.

Und das zeigt diese Studie eben nicht vollständig, da der Verbleib von rund 20 % der Fluormenge nicht nachgewiesen werden kann. Ein Teil wird sicherlich in der Keramik und Metalloberflächen im Ofen hängen, aber wie hoch dieser Teil ist, ist eben unbekannt.

The car bomb is triggered by turning the ignition. The POV is of the unsuspecting victim, so no bomb in view, just the view of turning the ignition.

Same as you, I liked the more grounded part better.

The atmosphere is brilliant and the world was so creative. Cyperpunk is hard to do realistically, but Norco managed to create a believable dystopia to me. Because it wasn't that different from our own.

And I applaud the developers for the jump scare with the smartphone and the hobo. That one was really well done.

Wow, it seems I completely merged those two games in my mind. Because I can't find anything regarding randomness now that I'm looking for it. Thanks for correcting it!

Because the way your original comment is worded it can be understood in two ways: either the soju or the vodka was written wrong. You meant the vodka, they thought you meant the soju.

Correct on the first part, I don't know if he did it for other companies as well.
