I was going to go through the feed and listen to some of faves, but I'm sure others have faves that are different from mine. I always like the episodes with Jerry Clark and Chris Rutkowksi. There's probably some good episodes that I've missed...
Check this out. In the future will these lab grown AI interfacing brains have a form of consciousness, and how might they communicate with alien life forms? Will they decide to leave humans out of the loop?
"Researchers are developing lab-grown...
Very interesting. Thanks ! I've read about the ones they've grown with silver — but these stem cell versions remove the concern over the difference in materials. Still — when it comes to consciousness, there's the issue of form ( as in form and...
Epstein "Survivor's" Testimony
In addition to having sex with rich people
Apparently some were forced to get a free university degree
at prestigious universities which Epstein donated millions of dollars to
Hmm — :rolleyes:
Well — even I don't fully understand it, but at least you're more open to discussing it than others. If you want to explore that further in some sort of organized way — including a companion podcast, by all means, PM me.
I appreciate the sentiment, and it's fun to think about. If only things were still like the good ole days. Now I can't un-see what I saw and un-know what I know — and I can't say much more than that without going where no conversation is allowed...
I think we should do a podcast. Called beyond the Paracast. Once a week because sometimes we have different views but also it would get the Paracast out there.
Very well said, Mr. State.
The archives are no longer available; however, I believe there have been over 780 episodes recorded. I’ll throw a few more into the mix such as Chris Aubeck, John Alexander, the old school folks talking about Long John...
That might very well be the case. We touched on that a few times in the consciousness thread. I was once of the opinion that there seemed to be no reason that a brain made of synthetic neurons wouldn't elicit the same emergence of consciousness...
In not posting that interesting discussion among mental giants of philosophy, quantum mechanics, and classical physics as to spark some long-winded debate, as wondering where the single dimension of time fits in between the relation to aerial...
When it comes to weapons and illicit drug "superlabs" — the USA has more of them inside their own border than Canada, so maybe they ought to clean their own house before making it an excuse to go after Canada.
Here's a bit of analysis to do with Canada. I was listening to this when I was jolted awake when Kokinda states at around 27:00 that 'first it's Greenland, the next is Canada." I would recommend listening to the whole first 27 minutes since that...
A couple of things there. You might want to review my explanation for why afterlives are impossible as a preamble:

That explanation would...
All I know is we may not remember what we were here on earth in fact we may have no memories at all. However our energy will continue and that and the people we encountered in our lives remembering us is good enough for me.
Interesting discussion. A mental shuffling of the ideas discussed here and on the consciousness thread. If I were asked whether of not the wave function actually exists, I'd point out that it relies on what it means for something to "actually...
Our trouble is we do not know history - certainly not recent history, in detail.

The International History...
Sure — so are the other "conspiracy theories" ( The plandemic included ). I'm using the phrase "conspiracy theory" very loosely there. Just because such ideas tend to get pushed over into that category, doesn't mean they're not true. In fact, it...
No conspiracy theory. It is a description of events as the decades played out, acknowledged by innumerable historians of whatever proclivity. America was the lynchpin of NATO that poured its treasure into 'defending' Europe and fighting its wars...
At around 11:00 she says the key phrase: "Trump's moves on Greenland aren't about territorial expansion, they're about ending NATO as an instrument of Imperial Control .... "
[I have to insert this note here because I lost the editing window]
There's another way of looking at NATO, and that is that it was formed by the British to control America. Because at the end of WW2 there was no reason to fear Russia. They had fought on 'our' side. In fact their losses far exceeded our losses...
