Atheism is the lack of belief in a deity. It’s not a belief that one doesn’t exist.

There’s a distinction there. You can look that up. You will find you are mistaken.

P.s.i find your willingness to trivalise scientific research and discovery as “some book” intollerable.

In the context of my original point, the difference between a scientific theory and some political monstrosity not believing something because they have no personal experience of the subject is incredibly large.

Don’t try to legitimise that clown.

People aren’t atheist because they have no personal experience proving the existence of a god.

Atheism isn’t a belief system.

The lack of evidence for a god is why atheists exist.

Personal experience and evidence are two different things.

How most dumb people reason.

I have no personal experience of this thing, so it must mean it’s not real.

If i dont know, nobody knows.

What a feeling.

I’m not a fan

Of this joke.

I looked this up after typing a response to make sure I wasn’t mistaken, but its only honey bees that die when they string you

From google “First off, male bees in any species cannot sting as only females have the bodily anatomy to do so. Secondly, only the honey bee can die after stinging, this is due to the honey bee’s stinger. A honey bees stinger is made up of two barbed lancets, meaning when they sting, the stinger cannot be pulled out again.”

I didnt realise that the worker bees were female! Male bees are good for nothing but breeding. They cant even sting. Bloody layabouts!

No, i dont think so. They are different. I think wasp stings are slightly alkaline, and bee stings are acidic. They need different treatments.

And there’s that one guy who catches his shit every time.

Edit: its a podcast! Its not weird shit stuff

Fair points! Elon is already likely to go down in history, but not for good reasons.

I wonder if elon has been testing all these rockets in a desperate attempt to escape the planet with a bunch of other billionaires now that global warming is on track to destroy us. It would help me understand why the wealthy all seem so hell bent on accelerating the destruction.

Where can i find this within settings?

If something is engaging, interesting, and entertaining, then it is far more likely to stick in your mind or teach you something new than a single sentence. This 17-minute video may do more to raise awareness of google search’s enshitification than any single sentence or minutes worth of info would ever have.

I dont disagree with you, but i dont think it matters. The video will help people.

Thats subjective though…

New to who?

The video is really interesting and more useful than that single sentence though.

If i had fallen for it, i would have had a quarter ponder :)

Is that an indicator of poor impulse control? Really? Finding some shady back of the internet ai site to put some weird fantasy prompts into to get themselves off? Seems pretty calculated to me. They can’t put it somewhere legitimate where content is moderated and policed. Seems like pretty sound logic to me.

Dont get me wrong, these people are sick. If thats what they are into then theres something wrong, but instead of targeting real kids like so many people actually do, you know, like hollywood, celebrities, musicians, the catholic church etc they are entering prompts and reading stories. Sounds like impulse controlled to me.

You got me. Had to whatever the thought equivalent of double take is.

Whilst i dont agree with them that this is an anxiety attack (although it does sound like it’s potentially related to anxiety or nerves) i dont think it’s fair to put them down for “playing psychic doctor” as you put it.

OP came to lemmy to ask for people to help them determine the cause of this problem. They are asking people to, at least in some way, “play doctor”

I k ow there is little information to go on but for all.we know the person your replied to might actually be a doctor and GPs do telephone appoi tments where you tell them your symptoms and they diagnose over the phone.

This isn’t a far stretch from that. I just think a lot of assumptions have been made here, and therefore, you aren’t much better than the “doctor” you are responding to.

(Having said all that, they blew a gasket whe you called them out, so perhaps they are a little too sensitive to be someone who needs composure, like a doctor)

In genera, i think this is a pretty good comment.
