Eh?

is experimental

tl;dr

What rise?

What did you think might have changed in order for people in the UK to stop drinking tea?

Quantum mechanics is unintuitive. Appealing to intuition is not an argument, it’s avoiding bothering with an argument.

In the past, the common response to the idea was, “So, rocks are conscious?” This argument was meant to illustrate the absurdity of panpsychism.

To me, this response does not illustrate any absurdity in panpsychism.

every instance has some users worth keeping in some conversation

That doesn’t contradict what I said.

Refraining from making the fediverse an archipelago where people refuse to talk to anyone who had the misfortune of picking the wrong instance

The fediverse cannot now be made that because the fediverse is already that.

Do they genuinely believe the shit they’re peddling or are they paid propagandists or is their something more nefarious afoot.

From my interactions, I’ve come to the conclusion that they’re mostly seriously broken people who’ve discovered Marx, convinced themselves that capitalism is the cause of all suffering and believe socialism is the solution that will free them from their trauma. The degree of their attachment to socialism is a reflection of the degree of their suffering and brokenness.

If they weren’t so toxic, they’d be deserving of compassion and forebearance.

No, that initial post is about a user’s bad experience posting on lemmy.ml’s communities where they disagreed with the Mod’s decisions.

Right, I see.

Does that happen on here?

I’m not sure what you mean by “on here”? I’m using feddit.uk to read and post, is that what you mean? The communities are not generally not on feddit.uk though.

If so, report it.

OK, will do.

Thanks but I meant links to your posts :-) Or more specifically, the communities you post to with anti-regime info. I looked through your profile but I couldn’t see where you were posting such things beyond World News.

What/where are you going to get them riled up like that?

Anywhere I join any kind of socialist thread. No one place in particular.

I post about horrors that are happening in Ukraine (not the ones that are committed by Russia, but by Zelensky’s regime with support from the west)

Any chance of a link? Just out of curiosity.

Every time we fragment the fediverse we make it overall worse.

Only if your conception of better/worse is focussed on user count rather than user quality.

Average users don’t even understand what they’re looking at when it comes to decentralized networks

Refraining from defederation won’t change that.

occasionally when an instance is full of toxic trolls

Isn’t that exactly what we’re talking about? I get constant lemmy.ml lunatics jumping on threads, name calling, talking nonsense, posturing, telling me to “go away” (this is the Fediverse looney, you’re only viewing my comment by your own consent), etc.

I’ve already user-blocked hexbear and lemmygrad, lemmy.ml is the next candidate for me.

Yeah the tankies seem like a crazy bunch. Literally.

The only thing to do is to disengage. Just ignore/defederate/whatever lemmy.ml.

So it’s rather pointless sitting for example in /c/linux@some.random.other.instance.world where there’s nobody to discuss anything with.

On the other hand, if you don’t participate outside of lemmy.ml then nothing outside grows and you just give more power to lemmy.ml.

I’m asking if the wave functions in the particles around us could collapse in such a way that they could absorb light, or even change the composition of atoms?

Your question doesn’t make sense.

a wave function “cascade”

I’m not sure what you’re referring to. It sounds like you’ve heard some physics words, misunderstood them, and are regurgitating them based on that misunderstanding.

The scientific method doesn’t rule out any phenomena, it simply provides a method of investigating phenomena.
