100% agree, so many flops right at the top VR/AR Threads AI Probably missing some more..
one-hit wonder
Same! My early childhood computer / tech introductions, all ran on a 286
Loved this game as a 10yo
You nailed it on the end for me as an Adult with ADHD diagnosed in my 30s. Motivation has been my biggest A-Ha with ADHD and trying my absolute best to align what I do with what I want to do otherwise I am setting…
You are discussing a theoretical world. In the real world, interest rates are 0. I can't find a SINGLE savings account over 1%, while inflation is over 5%: https://www.bankrate.com/banking/savings/rates/ Treasury bonds…
This comment is spot on. Interest rates are not in line with inflation, therefore, savers are being eaten alive. Those on fixed income (retirees, disabled) are getting absolutely screwed.
^ This. Thank you for the correction and more accurate description.
From the perspective of an American living in the Netherlands for several years now... The Dutch are light years ahead in their Water management from the US, and far ahead of any other developed nation. The Dutch have a…
Just want to second your wonderful comment. Down-time is critical for productivity... it is not a paradox as one might seem. Just like exercising gives you MORE energy.
You sure it's not just being around young people. The prefrontal cortex doesn't mature until late 20s, so people are more impulsive and selfish. The 30+ crowd in Ayahuasca/Psychedelics have been some of the kindest,…

I'd recommend the book "How to not Die". Here are some takeaways: "Which foods contain the most cholesterol? Eggs, fish, chicken, and red meat all earn the red light..." "As for saturated fat, desserts, dairy, and snack…
You should check out '30 million words'. It's a book about the importance of spoken language on young minds, and books may be a means. Fascinating data in it.
You are so thoughtful. Thank you for giving hope to humanity.
Definitely possible, I'm just highlighting it as hard. The last time "making friends" was easy was in university/college. For me (anecdote), it's only gotten harder as I've become an adult... then married... then harder…
It's hard to make friends with people and I'm in my 30s. I can't imagine how hard it would be to "find new people" when you are 90+ and probably can't even drive.
So by having a mortgage you justify unethical behavior? I fail to see how one creating their OWN problem justifies unethical behavior. "Be the change you want to see in the world."
Debt is worse now than in 2008. We haven't / didn't escape anything, just passed it on to future generation(s). Future generations will be paying the bill for mistakes of their parents.
"Consumers wouldn't be spending if they didn't have extra cash in their pocket, and they expect the economy to stagnate/decline" Debt, leverage, credit cards, loans, home equity lines, etc. Perhaps 2007 is a great…
Research has been conducted since 1950 (With a gap period of a few decades). It's pretty clear it works effectively, there are several meta analysis' done on modern and historical studies. I agree that many normal…

Look at other societies and ask yourself if your type of thinking that drives societal thinking may actually be part of the cause in creating these "monsters". Why are homicide rates so much lower elsewhere (say…
Why not? Do you think if you were born in their position, to their family, in their circumstances, you would be any different? Are you unable to understand the responsibility of NOT the individual and everyone else…
I understand where you are coming from and agree with 75+% of what you state. Most people who say they have a "bad trip" actually say it was better defined as "difficult" and had long-term benefits. Here is a key…
