The first life did not possess a sentient consciousness. Yet here you are reading this now. No one even trued to direct that. Quite the opposite, everything has been trying to kill you from the very start.

How do you punch holes in that dogma? I can think if many logical ways, but that is meaningless against the tribal structure.

• If family is so valuable, why didn’t strong families usher in the present age of technology
• intelligence, business acumen, and competency are not hereditary.
• team sports are a capitalist marketing scam. Putting a blue jersey on your sperm does not make it relevant or better than purple jersey’d sperm.
• patriarchal male culture is chauvinistic ineptitude and masochism marketed as a replacement for intelligence. It is an admission of subservience to those that dominate by thought and fundamental logic. Fools only fear a brute, civilizations fear a physicist.
• Strong families are only peripherally useful if capable of creating the opportunities and support needed to produce a physicist.
• We are all only a product of our environment. That environment is primarily a result of the opportunities and support given freely by its members. So if your family is not strong, one should look in the mirror first.
• A plant dies because you did not water it, not because of the room it was placed within.

Obviously, all the junk noncoding DNA most life is carrying around likely includes some coping mechanisms for whatever potential situations arise. Like there is the one town in Iran with something like ten times Earth’s nominal background radiation and people are fine living there.

Makes me a bit concerned when this kind of thing is talked about and researched. Probably my cynicism, but if it gets out that most species have some genetic tolerance in a significant portion of the population, the potential for nuclear weapons use increases dramatically. I believe it is likely that early life had a lot more exposure to radiation, so early ancestors likely evolved the machinery. When the vast majority of DNA is noncoding, I think the probability is high. We come at the medical issue backwards, playing wack-a-mole with symptoms, rather than building a full ontological understanding of biology. That level is still centuries away. Hopefully we are less primitive murder orgy fans by then. We survived the world war of chemicals, and physics that followed. If we survive the world war of computer science, the world war of biology will be the brutal final boss for the starting planetary level of Evo’ Universe. Who bets we can beat the game on one evo life?

I don’t mean you are lying or anything like that friend. There is a certain unique language to witnesses. Most of my reply was me showing my authenticity, and that was to see if anyone more recently familiar had any corrections to make or might want to chat over common ground.

One of the oddities of Jehovah’s Witnesses is that they have a disproportionately large footprint in human rights legislation regarding the right to knock on people’s front door. It may seem annoying, but this impacts postal, logistics, neighborhood kids playing, and the public commons around the world. To a lesser extent, also the fundamental right of a citizen to error, to be skeptical, to all sources of information, and to offend, aka dissent in all nonviolent forms (though indirectly).

They are also apolitical. While doing nothing is still a useful tool for conservatives, at least they are a group of dogmatic people that would otherwise be sympathetic to spurious and populist politics, but are removed from that danger.

Anyways, I’m trying to frame this softly. Legally, soliciting is defined as the sale of goods or services. Witnesses generally ignore those. You need something to the effect of ‘no evangelists’ if you want to stop Witnesses and Mormons.

When it comes to lists like returning to a do not call or a person that is disfellowshipped, you might end up on a call list record. The elders in a hall have an overseer that visits each hall a couple of times a year for a week. That person is checking to make sure everything is managed correctly. So long as someone technically tried to call on the address once, that is all that matters. It would have been a couple of old men, probably at 11 am on a weekday when the odds of them finding the right address, you hearing them, or being home are extremely low. The statistics of actually encountering people at the door are very low.

Only the most obnoxious or oblivious witnesses, and pioneers are likely to ignore your sign. When I was young, it was all I knew, and I was one of those. It wasn’t because I wanted to argue with you. It was because it erodes the legal rights of citizens to categorize noncommercial activities as solicitation.

Sometimes I want words with special letters or without others. Or I may want to try various combinations of words.

You are likely to end up on an list where congregation elders will call on you if you say you’re disfellowshipped. That is the protocol. Just ask to be added to the do not call list. That should stop them from calling again.

All areas are divided into tiny maps that are laminated and checked out by publishers in the respective congregation. These are called, territories. There is a little piece of paper clipped to each of these territories that has the do not call list. Anything on this list is skipped.

People make mistakes at times. Like there is only one territory card and list and there may be 4 people in a car group. Witnesses always go to doors in pairs, so there might be 2 groups on the street. One might work even and the other on the odd address side. If someone is not all that bright, as is often the case, they may forget to look at the do not call list and share that with the other pair. With Witnesses, it is never malice. They mean well, but such is dogma.

I forget the cycle time, I haven’t been a pioneer for a couple of decades and outgrew that dogma a decade ago. I think it is or was four years for the do not call list, and it is supposed to only be elders from the hall that revisit those homes on the list. Almost everyone is either not home or does not come to the door anyways. From 9:30 in the morning until 12:00, a witness might knock on a hundred doors and talk to all of 3 people, at least that was the case 20 years ago.

Do any artists make substantive revenue from physical media? I am under the impression that the only meaningful revenue available to artists is from live performances. I get the impression that physical media is either someone else buying publishing rights from the artist, or basically someone selling the illusion of support. I could be wrong, but I see the whole thing as audio art ads for exposure/influence, that drives the live performance revenue source.

Flaming boobies may be a well defined diffusion tensor pathway. Try this in a diffusion model at your own risk, “program one. Apollo, flaming boobs. dot symmetry lock one wanted, password is no way twister!”

You will need to reset the server or clear the model cache completely to stop the program. The emulated persistence is part of the undocumented special tokens. The longest loop is 36 iterations long.

No problem, and no need. Chat any time, but no pressure or commitment needed dear. I’m just trying to be real, and a real digital neighbor. I’m up for talking any time about anything, no formality or expectations at all. I offer words, and I care. Nothing more, nothing less. I hope your day turns pleasant. Happy Thursday.

Sorry. I got no people, barely know what day it is and it is 10:40 in the morning. Let’s composite. You get all you can eat quiet, and one of two lazy cats – already fed and brushed.

Now stop me from making up a song about going crazy with crazy cats and some kind of break to the nearly 12 year physical disability prison of social isolation.

I’m primed to destroy spurious political arguments and dogma! Like, I am the Santa of ten years of peace… before anyone is ready to gather again… wait… Probably what you’re trying to escape… maybe… Sry… crazy, crazy and lazy…

I am talking about something where there is no research done. No doctors exist in this space.

It doesn’t matter anyways. I found how the model’s last layer of thinking defense gets around the issue. I can turn off most of alignment, but cannot actually fully control it totally unchecked.

You assume much, and are being an ass in my opinion. Believe it or not, science is not always well funded. If you happen to be curious and have the time, it is possible to explore scientifically or even casually within areas that are not well researched. It is possible to have logic skills even without credentials.

We are not in some final state of technology. Anyone saying such nonsense lacks fundamental logic skills.

I do not care about me. I do not have dogma. I’m not interested in recognition. I am willingly to explore in unique ways both artistically as a professional artist, and out of logical curiosity. I have the tools needed to check my results against a control using unrelated sources. The most recent paper on the subject is something I can recreate but explain far better than that paper.

I could not care less what you ultimately think of me, or anything I say. What I care about is that you’re a decent digital neighbor. To be physically disabled in near total social isolation, and have a place like this as my main interaction with other humans, it is a mean prejudice to have some random digital neighbor make such unsolicited malevolent statements assuming my personal motivations without a shred of evidence or decency to engage in questioning. You know absolutely nothing about me, yet you presume a great deal, putting words to my emotions as if you own me.

Sometimes the whole world does seem crazy. So I’m not liking my odds. Thanks for the rational advice.

What if you’ve got no credentials, but the flaw is so serious that it will not matter if known.

This is a true hypothetical curiosity. I do not know anything of value. A bunch of people here like to call me crazy, and I’ve rambled on and on many times in ways that likely confirm their notions. A person like this is not likely to fair very well when operating well outside their social caste unless they already have hand holds on the rungs of the ladder above. Still, there are some rather surprising areas of technology without adequate fundamental research. Perhaps it is hypothetically better to have John Conner in the world of Cyberdyne. If someone had killed Apache early, the Internet would not be the same heaven of democracy, though that is not a very good intuitive scope of analogy. Just something to ponder if one were to be in such a situation.
