How to Live a #Happy #Life, From a Leading #Atheist


source (creepy URI but necessary to unlock the article): nytimes.com/interactive/2023/0…

Some people don’t want #magic tricks explained to them. I’m not that person. When I see a magic trick, I want to see how it’s done. People want free will or consciousness, life itself, to be real magic. What I want to show people is, look, the magic of life as evolved, the magic of brains as evolving in between our own ears, that’s thrilling! It’s affirming. You don’t need #miracles. You just need to understand the world the way it really is, and it’s unbelievably wonderful. We’re so lucky to be alive! The anxiety that people feel about giving up the traditional magical options, I take that very seriously. I can feel that anxiety. But the more I understood about the things I didn’t understand, the more the anxiety ebbed. The more the joy, the wondrousness came back. At the end of “Darwin’s Dangerous Idea,” I have my little hymn to life and the #universe. That’s my #God — more wonderful than anything I could imagine in detail, but not magical.

How to Live a Happy Life, From a Leading Atheist

​​“I want to show people, look, the magic of life as evolved, that’s thrilling!" says philosopher Daniel C. Dennett. “You don’t need miracles.”

Rockstar Games is selling a cracked Midnight Club 2 version on steam

.....and thereby infringing on the copyright of the no-cd crack author Razor 1911 :keku: meme and copywrong aside they are too cheap to pay and fix there own software they sell and rather use grey ware by an unknown guy.

Never forget these are the same corpos who sue mod creator into the ground for copywrong.

Fuck Rockstar Games and Take Two and anybody who still gives them money :sui_disgust:

Actually, Razor 1911 wasn't authorized to make such modifications to the software and under copyright law, non-authorized modifications are illegal and therefore, there is no copyright on such modifications.

But, Rockstar can authorize such modifications and they have for their own distribution.

Indeed, nobody should give a cent to companies that rent out proprietary malware.

Atlas VPN zero-day vulnerability leaks users' real IP address

"In a proof of concept exploit shared on Reddit, a researcher describes how the Linux client of Atlas VPN, specifically the latest version, 1.0.3, has an API endpoint that listens on localhost (127.0.0.1) over port 8076.

This API offers a command-line interface (CLI) for performing various actions, such as disconnecting a VPN session using the 127.0.0.1:8076/connection/stop URL.

However, this API does not perform any authentication, allowing anyone to issue commands to the CLI, even a website you are visiting.
[...]
The Reddit user claims that they contacted Atlas VPN about the problem but was ignored, and since the company didn't have a bug bounty program in place, public disclosure was the only logical option left."

bleepingcomputer.com/news/secu…

as usual it fails the basic privacy and security "do you actually give a shit" software checklist

>website uses 3rd party (tracking) domains (cookiebot.com, googleoptimize.com, googletagmanager.com
>not open source
>no PGP key or even contact for vulnerability disclosure

you get what you pay for :yui_shrug:

Our Sad Departure From Dr. King’s ‘Dream’
~60 years later, it's clear: the Left moved the nation in the opposite direction.

Given that #King spoke that day to all Americans — not just #Black #Americans or #white Americans — we should assess where we are today given how King defined then what was wrong. What have we learned, and what remains for us to learn?

We need to ask why, 60 years later, #race still occupies such a large part of our public #consciousness.

King’s complaint was not about our national charter. He referred to the “magnificent words of the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence.”

His complaint and indictment were that the nation was not living up to that charter.

In the grand scheme of things, King, in that speech, defined the movement he led as about leading #America to its full potential, as defined by the ideals and principles in its founding documents.

Meanwhile the Ukrainians desperately try to convey, that Russian drones have hit Romania (NATO country). Which would be fine and dandy if it wasn't for the minor fact, that the Romanians vehemently deny any such thing has happened, since they watched it/the attacks across the border 'in real time'. So what do the Ukrainians say to the Romanian government?: "You're wrong!!!"

Possibly. This chart obscures a number of things.
- What is the balance of native workers retiring vs becoming working age? Flat, negative, positive?
- Are US born children of immigrants counted as new native workers? (likely)
- What type of jobs are we even talking about? Gov stats are notorious for conflating part time and full-time (real) jobs to show a rosier picture.

Bottom line is America's jobs and employment situation is a mess, and nobody even wants to create an informative picture accurately showing reality - let alone trying to fix anything.

anti fascist sentiment

Both anti-choice and Catholicism want to remove freedoms and force others to live by their (misguided) worldviews

One involves protecting unborns over the living
The other involves spreading hate for an imaginary sky-daddy.

They were not prosecuted for BEING anything, but for committing crimes. Even fascists shouldn't break the law, as you'll see when the orange turd goes down hard

来加拿大一个多礼拜了，第一次哭得不能自已。我知道大部分加拿大人对我都很友好，但孤独和每天都会经历的歧视/区别对待终于让我崩溃了。在超市收银台对所有local people热情微笑只对我冷若冰霜的收银员、唯独对我不耐烦的食堂工作人员、同样为她hold the door却只对白人阿姨说谢谢而无视我的残疾同学、一听到我来自中国就立马啊不搭理我的当地华人同学……一件件事都让我感到unwelcomed. 一开始我还能安慰自己说加拿大政府都允许我来，这些种族歧视的垃圾人算什么，但后来经历多了真的很伤心。我已经努力按照加拿大的社会惯例来做事，对人有礼貌有教养，不管熟人陌生人都热情say hi妨碍到他人就say sorry，该帮忙开门拉门就开门拉门，也努力说流利的英语不给听者造成困扰，为什么还是区别对待我？再加上宿舍费用是正常租房的两倍东西却总坏，并且永远有外国同学无时不刻地在party在外放音乐，我感到无比overwhelmed……留学真的好难，新移民真的好难，老钟人真的好难；有时候在校园里看到白人同学们永远笑得那么开心，我突然觉得自己好像下水道里的老鼠……

最近好几次在对话里，见到类似的思路。譬如

：你不用担心瓶盖的密封是不是靠谱。这个工艺已经很成熟了，制造商都在卷。如果某一家做的不靠谱，被人发现了，它家自然会倒闭的。所以大家都会靠谱的。

又或者

：手游公司肯定会出这个角色的，毕竟很多人想要。公司要赚钱的啊。

这样的思路并不难反驳。但我更关心的，不是这些话题本身是什么答案，而是，说话的人，是怎样不暇思索地，用这种新自由主义的思路，来解决问题的？——或者说，潜意识里以为祭起了这个思路，就可以解决问题的？

毕竟，在这种思路的对话里，近期给我印象最深的是——

：我们（在上海疫情封城期间）过的很好啊。毕竟，只要小区物业想赚钱，他们终归会想方设法提供各种服务，把我们照顾好的啊。

Two economists are walking in a forest when they come across a pile of shit.

The first economist says to the other “I’ll pay you $100 to eat that pile of shit.” The second economist takes the $100 and eats the pile of shit.

They continue walking until they come across a second pile of shit. The second economist turns to the first and says “I’ll pay you $100 to eat that pile of shit.” The first economist takes the $100 and eats a pile of shit.

Walking a little more, the first economist looks at the second and says, "You know, I gave you $100 to eat shit, then you gave me back the same $100 to eat shit. I can't help but feel like we both just ate shit for nothing."

"That's not true", responded the second economist. "We increased the GDP by $200!"

“The word misinformation literally just means being wrong, and disinformation is lying. That’s all they mean. There’s no extra meaning to them. And so, misinformation is entirely subjective. It’s literally an opinion.” — Michael Shellenberger

If you are shocked and bewildered that totalitarian tyranny creeps through our country without opposition, the reason is simple: there is no official opposition.

I keep hearing nominal allies asking if people (they mean Normies) are gonna "wake up" when The Regime roll-outs the next round of mandates and lockdowns over the Election Variant

Well, here's the simple answer for any nominal adult who lived through 2020-2023 inclusive and still harbors illusions that the answer to literally anything is "Govern Me Harder, Daddy!"...

Fuck no - they're lost causes; worse, they are tools The Regime will once again use against the rest of us
