I've been sick with a flu for almost 2 weeks and it's not getting better. Advice, medbros?
You're repeatedly catching COVID-19 and doing nothing about it The brain damage has advanced to the point where you see nothing wrong with this

if you are recovering it's fine, if you have no improvement you need intervention

When did America lose sight of its priorities?
>>16913085Americans and Europeans allow themselves to be fooled by dystopian media into fearing the future and life-changing technologies. They genuinely deserve to lose the race if something like that is going to trip them up.

Greetings. A buddy of mine and I are making hijrah from the United States of America to a third-world country (maybe Brazil). One of our goals is to find a cure for akrasia. We may buy chemicals from China and synthesize CNS stimulants, among other things. We follow the manhaj of the likes of Terrence Andrew Davis and Theodore John Kaczynski. Please guide us. We welcome all advice, and other ideas on what to do. I have a background in electrical engineering, and my buddy has a background in mechanical engineering. Both of us have received 800 on the mathematics section on the SAT (and my highest score on the evidence-based reading and writing section is 750, while my buddy's is 780), so intelligence is not a limiting factor for us. Again, any and all suggestions welcome.Cheers,mxwjhd
>>16912765Greetings. Being schizo is apparently okay when Terrence Andrew Davis does it but not when I do it, huh? Anyways, how could I possibly be schizo? I literally read Gwern and have even made a contribution to his website! Therefore, I highly recommend you to SYBAU, yā aḥmaq.Cheers,mxwjhd

If humans are related to monkeys, then why is the flesh of animals tastier than fruits and nuts?
Monkey relation is 20 million years ago, ape relationship is about 5, other humanoid 500k, don't make false dictomy for attention
>>16913496>the flesh of animals tastierit isnt when raw, and even after its cooked you still need to add sauces, gravy or other condiments to itmeat on its own tastes bad
>>16913496>>16913500You're both wrong.You have to consider the taste of eating a dead animal carcass versus fresh fruits and berries. When the tastebuds evolved our ancient ancestral animals weren't cooking their meat and eating it with a blend of 11 secret herbs and spices. They eat the skin and flesh of an animal raw, rarely, because the blood was bad for primates so they preferred fruits. Also your taste can very a lot based on what you grow up eating. The way human tastebuds work actually varies a lot and even depends on what you are used to eating at the time. People from different countries and cultures eat different shit that other humans find disgusting. Lol.
Human ancestors became meat eater because of material shortage, not because it "tastes good"
is IQ the reason why women are outperforming men in every way possible /sci/?
>>16913330>Which makes senseNo, it doesn't.>there must be a biological lower limit of IQ where the woman cannot take care of her children any more and their survival is in danger.That limit is lower than the one where a man cannot take care of his woman, especially in an actual human society where taking care of children is a communal effort. Midwit normies should never be exposed to any terminology or themes related to evolution. It causes you to hallucinate like biological chatbots.
>>16913366A male fox will never mate with another female fox if his dies. A female fox will mate with another male fox if hers dies.
>>16913429You can make up retarded stories all you want but the bottom line is that your head canon makes no sense and is also empirically false because OP's chart is fake and women have a lower average IQ.
>>16913366>That limit is lower than the one where a man cannot take care of his woman, especially in an actual human society where taking care of children is a communal effort. Midwit normies should never be exposed to any terminology or themes related to evolution. It causes you to hallucinate like biological chatbots.You realise that all our DNA is from millions of years of evolution, the last couple thousand years haven’t made a dent.

This shit was a godsend for schizo retards
>>16913497Excelsior, Onus, NonOnus?Care to elaborate?Have a good day either way, I'd imagine.
abiogenesis paired with the concept of evolution really makes no sense at all if you think about it critically for more than a few minutes>cant have evolution without mostly accurate self replication>cant have accurate self replication without complex machinery>cant have complex machinery without evolutionIm not a christcuck by any means but it seems like theres a HUGE part of the picture we are missing here. our current theories and models of life are not enough to explain away this paradox. am I wrong?
>>16913396it's an empirical observation, obviously :^)
>>16913404Another mentally ill retard. Maybe someone sane has got an explanation?
>>16913303In principle, abiogenesis violates probability. Were such an event to occur completely dismantles many basic premises of evolution. Any argument for simplicity is irrelevant, any argument for likelihood is irrelevant. The universe has some kind of system solver at its core. It could be said that protein folding isn't the least likely thing to occur, for example randomly typing out shakespeare or the Iliad is also very unlikely, but even those outcomes would be the direct result of the same system solver. A most unlikely outcome. Some small corner of the universe hardly more than 10^80 atoms converged on events that have a likeliness far lower than 10^200000 repeatedly. Once unlikeliness is removed from the deck, there is no reason to even think of evolution in their terms whatsoever. An animal could be anywhere by any reason. A particular line could be of nearly any imaginable construction. Genetics could change over night and change back for seemingly no reason.
>>16913396>>16913410I asked Claude. I guess it's not a very satisfying answer.
>>16913303The only explanation that makes sense is that life originated when most of the universe was hot enough to support life, and not only extremely small locations in goldilocks zones. That is the only way to overcome such absurdly small probabilities: with massively overwhelming volume. On top of that solves the problem of genetic complexity going from nothing to complex enough for simple life forms in an absurdly small time span.

Update on climate change? Are we succeeding or are we losing? Where can I find up to date statistics?
>>16912443Your retarded, the forecast for that model >>16908572 is from 2000 to 2024. The difference between the raw and adjusted temps is basically 0 over that period so your dogshit argument doesn't even make sense in this scenario.

>>16905995When do Green Sahara and Green Syberia come back? I want to resurrect megafauna to inhabit these places, imagine how cozy it would be.
>>16913294Siberia will be a pretty swell place to be once we reach the hothouse equilibrium, since, unlike canada, it actually has soil and isn't just barren rock.
>>16913294The green Sahara and African humid event was mainly driven by earths procession and the cycles take about 20,000 years. The last African humid period ended approximately 5000 years ago so the next one should come around in about 15000 years, unless we've entered a drastically different climate regime by then.
