Why eat food when I've already succeeded? I win at natural selection while hungry says a lot about me as a sperm donor.

AI right now is a language model based on algorithmic data and prediction models. It only looks sentient because human behavior is predictable but not 100% predictable. It cannot be driven to say unpredictable things that hormones would otherwise do for you. It's your biases that make you believe it has a consciousness.

Much like animals, I don't see why not.

I used to keep my own teeth but I kept losing them. It's nice that she held onto them for this long.

Reply to comment by paragraphsonly in Students who report experiencing discrimination are more vulnerable to suicidal thoughts and behaviors, study finds by lolfuys
Pretty much this. Felt profiled when I went into a luxury store. They kept thinking I was going to steal and they weren't very welcoming. It's like because of how I dress and that I'm introverted.
It certainly did not make me feel good about myself having to experience this. I thought to myself: is this how black people feel?

So exploiting the human brain for profits. It's not doing our society any favors.

Reply to comment by [deleted] in Intermittent Fasting significantly reduced systolic blood pressure (SBP), but not diastolic blood pressure (DBP). The effects are likely due to weight loss. by glawgii
I've been doing intermittent fasting for a long time, maybe almost a decade. It was never for a caloric deficit since I still make up for it 1-2 big meals later. The beneifit was not having the need to constantly raise my insulin levels, which would either make me more hungry or more tired from eating carbs in the morning. What I do now has reduced a significant amount of the fat around my belly area. Was still able to obtain gains too in muscles.

Yeah they're called planes. Unless you want highways in the sky affecting birds.

With abuse you lose your agency.
