i think the secular morality thread is veering into unprovable territory

"how do you know humans don't secretly rely on instincts, or bears secretly don't do value judgements"

fascinating questions, but bears and such things ought to be irrelevant to discussions of morality

how did they even get to that point

wait wat

"Lots of the basics of our own moral construct relies on instinct. This is why sociopaths exist at all."

i don't even

"how do you know humans don't secretly rely on instincts, or bears secretly don't do value judgements"

i was tempted to write it off as silly

but i tried to reply anyway


i love the way i don't know much about all that book learnin'

but i still feel smart, educated$(oxford_comma) and cultured compared to most those ppl

Assassins creed says it is

Man it totally doesn't

[Dooey Jo]

waitwaitwait it's becoming the thread of the day

"Thus from an evolutionary perspective and a purely selfish one, pro-social behaviour is advantageous and should be encouraged"

if it increases the fitness, it is moral! we are of course hard-wired to know what "pro-social" means (it means kill the undesirables )

so glad we can finally rid us of the whole of western value theory and just make shit up


incidentally, arguing that humans have instincts for morality makes the discussion that morality is "for" something meaningless, because instincts are per definition automatic, can't be prevented and present in every member of a species. morality would happen regardless of what anyone declared it was for

you're talking about the level in revelations where you're killing the dudes that robbed them to make them think there's a gypsy curse, right

that was an odd decision on the developers' part

[Losonti Tokash]

also shep finally posts about a game that didn't come out over 5 years ago so he posts about one that's not out for 9 months

sigh

Actually I was just sort of going by how AssCreed is generally quite sympathetic to people who operate outside normal society and how 'normal society' is basically the Templars.

I had actually forgotten what the Roma mission in AssRev was

Just trick everyone into thinking we're witches

What could go wrong?

What a comedown in writing quality lol

Rent was about the same as the tiny studio my sister had in Manhattan. Because real estate in NYC is more expensive than in a Massachusetts college town.

where did you go to school

Worcester Polytechnic.

The most I got out of it was my friends, but that's mostly my fault for not knowing wtf I wanted to do.

College is wasted on college students.

Also, don't think I didn't notice that you ignored the rest of my post.

god that pisses me off

in the land of porcupines

not quoting each fucking sentence is ignoring it

Recentism is a symptom of Wikipedia's dynamic and immediate editorial process, and has positive aspects as well—up-to-date information on breaking news events, vetted and counter-vetted by enthusiastic volunteer editors, is something that no other encyclopedia can offer.

Hahahaha

[starku]

no other encyclopedia is as much a newsfeed as wikipedia

:V

80 kilos, Starglider has 80 fucking kilos of freeze dried food in tins. He better hope to hell he never has to be mobile in an emergency or he's going to need a wheelbarrow.

[starku]

better or worse than 20,000l of pertrol in the yard

[Aaron]

Better.

[timmy]

Said you'd never get anywhere

[Aaron]

Can't eat gas.

[timmy]

Well they don't care and it's just not fair

[adr-admin]

what the fuck is wong even saying in that secular morality thread?

the way i'm reading it he is vacillating between affirmation and denial amidst the chaos of outer space free will

If there is ever an emergency I know who to kill and take from now.

[The Spartan]

How much water would you need for that much freeze dried food?
