Stupid World

[Brian d marge]

btw

If everybody would agree that their current reality is a reality, and that what we essentially share is our capacity for constructing a reality, then perhaps we could all agree on a meta-agreement for computing a reality that would mean survival and dignity for everyone on the planet, rather than each group being sold on a particular way of doing things.
- Francisco Varela (1946-2001) Biologist, Philosopher.

I would say that current reality is only an illusion of reality.

Cute name. Like bitcoin, peercoin etc... The names may change but it doesn't protect the innocent from the entitlement complex brigade. I know, not your concern. And no, I'm not after a wounding, I want it dead and buried.

Like that's a solution. It's still plucked out of the air. Just because it is backed by nothing more than confidence in a market, I'm guessing it'll change nothing as it's still just money getting to the same people. What it's valued against, excluding the resources inherent value, matters not... it never has. Bury it deep and execute the zealots that follow such a false idol.

It's OK, dude, don't choke on the foam, I wasn't offering you any.

And nor would anyone else with a jot of sense.

no, because reality is relative.

Well it's certainly relatively scarce in Stupid World.

I didn't realise I was asking.

Ya never know eh.

I'm amazed Stupid World hasn't been tripping over it's collective bottom lip trumpeting the end of evel bank domination of the financial sector.

I mean, fuck, real actual money not pulled out of fresh air!

That's cool, I had not heard of that. Have you used it at all?

So far it seems stable, I like it as the low risk end of an investment spread.

I like the general concept too, though.

Depends on how you choose to add them... or if you're adding them together to prove a specific point. But I know how dumb I am.

The right way in core maths is not open to choice, any other choice is willfully ignorant, and an explanation for a lack of creativity. This isn't a discussion on how to art.

Then the sum should have been written without ambiguity. It is a knowledge test, not an intelligence test.

Oh look, another semantical retreat.

"Let's see who's dumb" was the name of the test.

The question is 100% unambiguous, you just don't know how to read.

Congratulations, dumbarse.

Like I said, knowledge test.
