I remember as a kid distinctly remembering a third brother besides mario and giuseppe, but for the life of me I can't find any information about him online, guess I must have imagined it or something
An entity predicts your choices with near-perfect accuracy.
Two boxes:
one has $1,000.
the other is sealed.
If it predicted you'd take both, the sealed box has $0.
If it predicted you'd take only the sealed box, it has $1M.
Do you take only the sealed box or both?

the internet has also invented its own grammar.
"bro really said..."
"let X cook"
"rent free"
"X goes hard"
"we got X before Y"
none of these belong to any standard variety of English.
In a weird way, Global Internet English is drifting toward what linguists call a lingua franca. It prioritizes being easy to understand over matching any official standard.
some Internet English comes from directly translating other languages.
"I have 20 years." instead of "I'm 20 years old."
"Today morning." instead of "This morning."
"Come one time." meaning "Come once."
they're technically wrong, but people rarely get confused.
@SkyeSharkie@ZyMazza While i can agree on the bigot part (that i didn't really feel as i found myself agreeing with the author) and i also noticed the excessive use of fallacies, what we're calling materialism here is not the one we usually refer to with the same word. And yes, we can formulate more-
@ZyMazza I would also like to add, could it be that consciousness is derived from the ability to think about thoughts? That could potentially exclude the US, we know it can evaluate what to do based on it's state, but we cannot measure if that counts as thinking about it's thought.
