More Machine Than Melody by brb
I made this!
Inspired by all the machine spam round here recently.
Wanky phase music with percussion... Tempo, the timbre of things, all are linked in magical ways, every sound is convolved or intermingled with another somehow, it kind of controls itself.

When I'm sitting in my car eating a new variety of homogenised junk food which tastes basically like all the other homogenised junk food I do sometimes think that I could get it for free if I made a youtube channel and reviewed it,

Apparently humans were apex predators for two million years
"Only the extinction of larger animals in various parts of the world, and the decline of animal food sources toward the end of the stone age, led humans to gradually increase the vegetable element in their nutrition, until finally they had no choice but to domesticate both plants and animals -- and became farmers."

something in the stridency of their conclusions makes me wary, you don't often see scientists doing that and making comments about the paleo diet
there's a lot of ongoing debate over which of the many hominid subspecies were common ancestors or evolutionary dead ends, so when they talk about fat cells, large herbivore remains, stomach acid levels and the like, I'd be curious as to which specific fossil evidence they're referencing when stretching their theories back 2 million years. Australopithecus were around then, slender things that ate mainly fruit, and are widely thought to be a good candidate as a common ancestor. If memory serves the heavy-browed robustus were first thought to be a better candidate. One theory I remember was that Australopithecus may have used rock to smash the thick skull case of things like abandoned buffalo carcasses on the increasingly dry savannah, gaining access to fat that other animals weren't able to get at like some scavenging vultures. though like this research, it might have been drawing a long bow from scant evidence.

I find it weird the promotion of paleo, in that there's nothing to suggest ancestral hominids lived extended lifespans
you just don't find fossils of elderly hominids, leading some scientists to postulate that post-menopausal survival is a relatively recent adaption. Diets of creatures that don't live to old age don't need to be protective of diseases that tend to strike in old age. Who cares about cholesterol if by 35 they've already picked out a burial spot for you? Have another mammoth burger, grandpa, it could be your last.

To have as backup the next time an Alan Ford video prompts you to spontaneously educate your spouse on the homicidal potential of swine. From the pillar of scientific journalism that is the LA Times.
Make sure to remember the following quote: "I have no doubt that if a restrained person [were] put in a pen, invariably, inevitably, the pigs would start eating that person."

An interesting aspect of the question "are we living in a simulation" is that...
...it doesn't really matter how fast such an exterior computer is,
since the passage of time inside is just a simulated concept.
If the simulation is merely an algorithm ticking along somehow, it
shouldn't matter on what machine it ticks along, from the perspective
of anyone living inside the simulation.
One would imagine some absurdly advanced hyperdimensional supercomputer
more powerful and sophisticated than we would ever possibly imagine...
some kind of god machine.
But if it's just an algorithm it could all be handled with pen and paper
(or the outer universe's equivalent)... so long as the algorithm continues to
tick along in the outer universe, the inner simulated universe continues to run.
It might all be egg timers and abacuses for all we could ever know.
(, Tue 6 Apr 2021, 1:26, Reply)
A lot depends of the parameters of the simulation though...
Whether or not complexity is averaged out at scales and only becomes complex when observed, for example. Whether or not a single observation manifests for the entire universe or only for the observer, too.
Do all observers each have their our own simulated universe? Are microbes observers? I guess the universe simulated for an organism with no sense organs could be fairly basic, but you'd still require quadrillions of them.
If each Planck-tick in our simulation takes more than one Planck-tick in the next universe up, that's probably a post-stellar universe by now, unless the entire universe was only just created in this instant, with all our memories fabricated.
It's a tantalisingly silly and unfalsifiable idea.
