No, a computer is just boolean logic. I'm not being reductive, that's literally all you need.
When people say that thinking is just complicated enough computation, that's an assumption. A particularly convenient assumption, given all the computers we have lying about.

A brain is several billion living nerve cells all doing their thing, acting and reacting to one another, concurrently. A computer is only ever doing one task at a time, but at a fast enough pace as to give the illusion of multi-tasking.
Emulating a whole brain (everything, not just simplified neural networks, but the actual nerve cells themselves) is currently far beyond what computers are capable of. More then that, not every natural phenomenon can be described algorithmically! It's entirely possible that consciousness is non-computable.

Yes, it's an assumption to say consciousness is non-computable. But it's also an assumption to say it is computable. Not really a phenomenon we understand.
I agree that fleshy brains are probably not the only things capable of producing consciousness. I think it's actually fairly likely that a machine could be made that reproduces it, I'm just... really skeptical that it's gonna look anything like a Turing machine. It would certainly be convenient if it did.
As to brains being made of discrete units... there's some evidence to suggest it might not be. When you put a person (or any living thing) under general anesthetics, the thing the anesthetics target is microtubules within cells. And microtubules themselves have quantum mechanical properties. They've been shown to er, "do", super-luminescence in lab experiments (I don't understand quantum).
Admittedly, that's a lot of correlation and almost no direct example of causation. But it does suggest there's... something... there that needs more examination and research.

in my experience this phenomenon is called aging.
The cramp is just your body redirecting the excess force to keep your eyes from blowing out of their sockets.
your foot was jealous of your nose and wanted in on the action
just wait 'til you stub your toe and get a nose bleed.
One day, you'll be remembering the day you did that because you'll be in traction after laying down on the couch to watch a sportsball game and your back entirely seized.

Caffeine doesn't do much for me, in fact it often seems to make me sleepy
I struggle with falling asleep and it gets worse with caffein. So I never drink a lot of it after 16:00
Caffeine doesn't do much for me, unless I have taken my Elvanse. Then it can be like I am too focused to actually focus on things.

If I drink A LOT of caffeine it will keep me awake, but in a groggy rapid heart beat kind of way.

An atypical response to caffeine is one of the most consistent markers of ADHD I've seen in the wild. I've yet to meet someone who has it and didn't have some level of ADHD symptoms as well.
Symptoms? Yes. Diagnosable? That's a different story...
True. I tend to hang out with a lot of high functioning weirdos. We worked out that about half of us either were diagnosed with various neurodiversities, or reasonably could be. Several got diagnosed, after the caffeine point.
Unfortunately, high functioning ADHD diagnosis can be VERY hit and miss. My diagnosis was apparently fairly blatant. A friend, with very similar experiences and issues, got the opposite end of the deal. Since he could hold down a job, he obviously had no issues. A depressing chunk is down to the personal opinion of the assessor.
Yep!!!! Hold down a job so you're fine! Not to mention the last time my house was clean was 7 years ago when i took a half dose of adderall...
My house might be tidy... one day... I don't think it's been truly tidy in over a decade.

I routinely go into Creative mode and wire/route the "perfect" ME controller every few months. It's a fun puzzle to minimize the number of colors required.
I guess I'm nasty at heart. I just make a phat square, cover it in decorative blocks, and double the inside as drive storage/autocrafter manufacturing. Of course I play too much PO3.
But see if you do that you will only have 10x as many channels as you could ever need and not 1000x.

lol that’s like the opposite of ADHD. I worked a pretty long day today and had… idk, 10 cups of coffee? I’m not gonna have trouble falling asleep in a couple hours.
Edit: this me joking about the situation. Caffeine is 100% extra stims, and I use it that way.

Ok but how do you even begin assembling this thing?
This post inspired me to make my own. I started by laying 10 q-tips on the table, then another layer of 10 perpendicular, and kept going until I had 10 layers of each. In hind sight, I recommend doing 9x9, because the next step was to poke q-tips through the grid vertically, and that pushed the other layers around and some fell off. Once you have the 9x9x9 cube, you can fill in the edges to get 10x10x10. Note that the final cube will actually be a few short of exactly 10x10x10 due to the way the shapes hold together.

you know you are not supposed to put them in your ears, right?
Grammy always said never put anything other than your elbow in your ear...
My grandpa said the same. A year or two later when he said it again. It was then that I tried it. Gramps!!
Inner ear is off limits. Can still be useful for the outer ear. For most people, cleaning the outer ear will let the inner ear take care of itself.
You will compact your earwax and it will get steadily more and more blocked up. Don't ask me how I know this.
This entry was edited (Tuesday, April 22, 2025, 5:09 PM)
Outer ear. Blockages aren't an issue for the outer ear.
Well, usually
If it's too deep for your finger, it's too deep for qtips. Don't use qtips.
They also irritate the skin in a way that your finger doesn't.
If you have gunk that's not coming out with your finger, pippette small quantities of olive oil in, leave it there for a bit and tip it back out into some kitchen roll. Repeat once or twice a day for a week or longer if necessary.
MUCH, MUCH easier than that is DON'T compact the ear wax by using qtips in your ear.
You think you're scooping stuff out, and it feels so good, but you're compacting it on the way in and irritating the skin on the twist, promoting more ear wax. You'll think you have some hearing loss from noise, but it'll be the compacted ear wax because you didn't listen to the advice everyone gave you to not use qtips. Use your finger, but don't use qtips.
I've been using q tips and putting them into my ears for 40 fucking years. Not one issue, ever.
Thanks for publicly invalidating my experience and my advice. Really made my day.

Yes, but that top layer isn't square. There's one more row towards the top left. Some Qs need to be removed or added to bring balance to the qube.

This does not need more boosts. I have been employed for a year now.
Please stop. This post was written in April 2025. It is now September 2026 & I have a job. No more attention is needed.
Ignore this post completely if you see it.
~~I have lost my job & housing. Does anyone know of a place in Georgia or Minnesota that has entry level positions for IT or any similar computer stuff? Electronics repair is something I'm interested in too.
I was unable to get any certifications from my current job so I'm stuck at entry level. They told me they would give me opportunities for certifications, but they never came, so I feel scammed & don't feel bad about leaving this company.
I need an immediate opening, just ideas about where I can look now. I would prefer something LGBT friendly, because working with stereotypical anti LGBT boomers is killing me & I'm suffering in this environment.
If I can't get something in IT I'll take anything with a gay work environment that pays enough for me to live alone.~~

Hi Luna. I don't know of any places, but as a political science major, I'd strongly encourage you to look more into Minnesota than Georgia. Georgia is in the bible belt meaning it's a rather conservative state that will likely have much more conservative folks and policies that would be harmful to you. On the other hand, Minnesota is a state with rather strong trans protections (I forget if you're trans or just queer but I still think it's good to know the LGBT culture of States you're looking into)

@Starcross I'm from Georgia. I agree with you that it's not a great place, but there are some very LGBT friendly cities & I'm looking for jobs near those. I just won't specify which ones because I don't want to dox myself. I'm still considering Georgia because that's where my family is. I don't have anyone in Minnesota that I can rely on for help, & I'm only considering it because of its laws about LGBT people. The people in Minnesota may not be very LGBT friendly either, only some cities, the same as Georgia, & the only difference would be the law. It's a very difficult situation & I have to weigh my legal safety against my financial safety & risk of losing housing; personal safety isn't a factor because it's likely to be the same in either state, even if I am legally protected in one it won't change that some people are to be hateful. The USA overall is not a very good place & I would leave if I could, but I can't.

I see. Yeah there tend to always be positive towns in what can be a generally bad state and it's a wise strategy to try to seek those out. I can definitely understand you wanting to stay around your safety net. Just figured I'd offer you a different perspective and keep that in your considerations. Best of luck in finding a job ❤
A gay (or at least LGBT friendly without the fetishization of LGBT people that most corporations seem to do) is very important to me. I can't do this pretending to be straight & perfectly gender conforming shit again. I'm DYING here.
Has anyone seen glopossum's character Junip? I would rather have a coworker like him traumatize me with the details of his sexual encounters last night every morning than this "you can't be gay that's against the bible💔" shit!!! I really don't like hearing about that stuff but it does make me feel accepted & better about myself instead of forcing me to pretend to be something I'm not & do a bad job pretending & repeatedly get in trouble for seeming weird or off somehow all the time!
Do technology employers still do fizzbuzz, or is there a different test they do now? I remember reading that some will give you some kind of knowledge test to see if you know how to use a shell or know what the parts of a computer are or something. What are common tests? I probably don't have to worry about this for entry level but I still want to know just incase.
a book called "Cracking the coding interview" is still relevant for some employers
@nina_kali_nina I wish I had coding interviews to crack, but I'm not a programmer.

erm. Is this too much?
A thought for trans allies in this time:
You often ask us what you can do to help. Well, here's something you can do. Wear trans badges, buttons, pins, scarves, whatever you've got. Explicitly. I wanna see that blue and pink EVERYWHERE.
Because the more of you cis folk do that, the safer we will be in crowds and such. It will mean that wearing a badge of support for trans people doesn't necessarily out that person as trans.
"But wait," you're thinking maybe, "if I do that, people might think *I* am trans!"
Well, why is that a problem for you? Would you be offended by someone thinking you might be trans? Would you be scared? Welcome to our world.
This is your time, cis people. You were all ready to call yourselves allies when it didn't matter more than changing your PFP background. Now the rubber meets the road. We need you. We need your help to normalise our existence to other cis people. It could save lives.
If someone accuses you of being trans (imagine being *accused* of existing while trans?), don't deny it. Ask why it matters to them. Keep calm.

are there any good trans run shops to get such badges etc from (I’m in the UK) - would like to get some in solidarity but also want to support trans owned business rather than an opportunist

@anarchic_teapot @CatherineFlick I love these pins, I have quite a few of them, they are amazing quality and are also supporting a charity for LGBTQ+ homeless people.
@anarchic_teapot @CatherineFlick These are great. My basket is already fuller than my budget. New shiny things for my bag shall be ordered soon.
@anarchic_teapot lovely! I have a few coming in the post ❤️

@christineburns @CatherineFlick
for months I've had a "Mr Skittles" air freshener hanging in my car, although its long run out I keep it there (and put another cheap air freshener behind it) as its both in trans flag colours but also "under the radar" (I'm not sure if whoever designed it knew the significance, but given they could have picked any colour it does make me wonder..)
(it is the mascot of Dodo juice, a detailing supplies company from Essex, dodo in pink/blue)
@christineburns thanks! They’re out of stock of a lot (and trans pins especially!) but I will check back later!!
@CatherineFlick Yes, I noticed that. It says something.
@CatherineFlick The Ethical Giftshop in Sparks Bristol has quite a few things. Not sure if they are trans run though.
They don’t have a website other than this: linktr.ee/theethicalgiftshop
Prof. Catherine Flick reshared this.
Again: Thanks! I've been worried wearing trans / queer stuff when I'm about as boringly cistraight as it gets might be inappropriate - guess I'll be shoppin' 😊🏳️⚧️
That's why the rainbow flag Professor Elemental badge is on my bag. I'm huge (and old) so I double-dog dare you to have a problem with my badges.
I got called " the gayest grandma ever" for my trans support gear and I wondered how they knew about my grand cat.....

Did you intend to refer to the king of Denmark here or?
Of course it made a difference that gentile Danes were in solidarity with Jews. The death rate in that country was a lot less than other occupied countries. Most Jews escaped. Their neighbours helped them.
Honestly, arguing that saving real people's lives only mattered as far as how it impacted the feelings of Nazis is not only absurd but offensive.
@nano_ that's a strange thing to say. Maybe you can take off your transness but many can't at all or can't without crippling dysphoria
@HornyShitposts OK. Yes. I want to do this. Good resources for trans badges, pins, etc?
@darrell73 Hm, I think it depends on location, in my area they are sold at the art supply stores and the independent bookstores and such. They also may have them at your local queer community center (US and Canada listings at lgbtqcenters.org/LGBTCenters)
