We're on Lemmy.world, if this was presented as an actual opinion (rather than an example of an opinion) on .ml I guarantee you it would be removed under 'rule 1'

An example of an opinion that would get censored on some Lemmy instances:
China's authoritarian government is unethical and worse than America, even under Trump
An example of an opinion that would get censored on some mainstream platforms:
Luigi was right, we should kill billionaires
Both should be allowed
Why do people assume time and space didn't exist outside our universe? Maybe it did, maybe it doesn't. We can't know. But that's not the same as 'there was definitely no time before the big bang, or space outside our observable universe'
I agree with you, it's sad to see how people are so happy to censor opinions they disagree with when they're in power, while ignoring that if their opinions get censored when they're not in power they (rightfully) get miffed. Free speech should apply to everyone so people can decide for themselves what they believe and they can challenge authority.

I agree with the first part, but I absolutely do not want to give my biometric data to the government. They clearly already have a way of assigning everyone a number for the National Insurance Number, so just use that

I don't follow some laws, mainly copyright related ones as it goes against my personal morals and there is no punishment.
If a law is immoral and there is punishment, I would conform out of fear, but want to protest it.
If a law is moral, then great!
I'm not so conceited as to imagine I haven't internalised any external morals from authority, majority, or religion, but whenever I actually consciously reflect on my morals, the only one that seems to matter is what I think is moral, not what others do.
It would be interesting to talk to Decartes, but I don't speak Français, so it would have to be... idk... Nick Bostrom would be interesting
No, it's literally a plot point, Dumpledore says to Harry at the end of book two that he's not like Voldemort because he chose to be in Griffindor
You do get to decide which house you'll be in though, that's the whole point.
Not that any of the muggle borns will know what the houses mean...
Detaching it from science and what's actually going on inside our brains, I see two logical possibilities for why something happens. Either it was the result of a deterministic prior cause, or it was random. Neither of those are 'you choosing' for it to happen.
My bad! I'll look for that in future posts
Why can't it be that it happened because you wanted to brush your teeth, and the reason you wanted to was deterministic?
If you can't define the thing you're arguing for, then I don't think you can really reasonably claim that it exists.
Ok, let's take one example. You said you can choose whether you brush your teeth this morning or not.
If you do choose to brush your teeth, what caused you to do so?
I've never really understood any argument for free will, because I've never really understood exactly what they mean by 'free will'. Take me through it, exactly what does it mean if you 'make a choice'?

You are presented with an opportunity to choose between two distinct options for a post-scarcity life. The parameters of each option are as follows:
Option 1: Earth
Live anywhere you want on Earth, with the condition that space is limited and must be shared equally with others. You can have whatever you want, as long as it can be produced by a replicator. If your friends and family live on Earth, you can visit them in person. However, you will be subject to the same limitations and constraints as everyone else on Earth, in regards to space and legal codes that bind you (that are decided democratically).
Option 2: Customised Continent
You will be allocated a portion of a habitable planet, up to the size of a continent (but it can be as small as you want) with the ability to customise the environment to your liking, including:
- Biome (e.g. temperate, tropical, desert, etc.)
- Approximate gravity (within reaso

The hard to pick fruit tastes less sweet
It's a metaphor for the idea that things that are hard to accomplish are often not as rewarding as we might expect.
The more I try to find truth, the less truth I find.
When I was a young child, I naïvely believed anything I experienced or that anyone told me as true. As I started adolescence, I started to question that, and realised that people who tell me stuff might be mistaken, or intentionally lying to me. I became very interested in optical illusions, and realised my senses could be fooled too. I had to rely on measurable, repeatable truth that scientific experts had written in pop science books.
Then I thought about simulations, being in a story (like in Sophie's World), gods, and every other possibility that the entire world I experience is not real and is created to test me, to observe me, indifferent to me and I'm there by accident - whichever it was, I couldn't believe for sure that anyone besides me really existed, or anything I knew through my senses. Only my logical reasoning could be trusted. I am doubting therefore I exist, but I couldn't know anything else for sure.
Until recently, I realised when I was ruminating one time, and thin

Hey,
So I've been connecting to an ftp server which I worked on with apps like GNOME Builder, and backed up the contents of with Pika Backup, connecting to it via the GNOME Files application, Nautilus, from the Network tab.
Recently, apps stopped being able to read files I opened with the file picker hosted on the ftp server, and after a lot of debugging I realised that was because Nautilus had for some reason switched from mounting the files under /run/user/1000/gvfs/ftp_address to the more abstract path ftp://ftp_address, under the virtual directory computer:///. Now apps can't read those files as they are not mounted under an actual path.
I couldn't find a way in Nautilus, FileZilla, or Dolphin to mount the ftp server files under a specified path /mnt/ftp_username, or even to put it back to the unwieldy but still working path it was under before, using a GUI.
I was recommended by an LLM assistant to use the cur

Stereo Madness
I awoke to find myself lying on a cold, hard floor, disoriented and confused. My head throbbed as I tried to piece together where I was and how I had gotten there. As my eyes adjusted to the darkness, I noticed a computer in the corner of the room, its screen glowing with the familiar title screen of Geometry Dash, specifically the level "Stereo Madness."
Before I could fully process my surroundings, a synthetic voice boomed from the walls, sending a chill down my spine.
"Welcome," the voice intoned coldly. "Three of your family members have been captured and are being held in this facility. To save their lives, you must complete the level 'Stereo Madness' on your first try. Each coin you collect will save one of them. Fail to complete the level, and they will all die. You have no second chances."
The back wall, previously white and opaque, suddenly turned transparent. Through the glass, I could see my father, mother, and sister, each restrained under a separate guillotine. The sigh
