The opportunity to shitpost another day.

I wouldn't gladly die for anything, because I'm scared of being dead.

Freedom to think and say whatever I want, and the freedom to disagree. Those are things I hold to be very important.

Your life can be shit, would you still love this shit?

Shit is better than nothing.

I don't care much for anything or anyone, really. So, nothing.

But it is still shit.

Im fine with dying, but I also enjoy living, so I'm kinda torn in this question.
I would gladly die to live another day and experience everything the world offers.

Myself.

love
empathy
freedom of thought
I think these are things that hold true meaningful importance.

Jesus Christ, because if I die for him, I shall have eternal life.

what if you lack empathy

>>1362340

Same as you, but I would change "emptahy" for "sensitiveness", and add "solidarity".
>>
Nothing. I suppose I prefer ease and freedom to the opposite. But there is nothing in this world that I live or die for. I'm alive, so why not continue. But I'm not doing anything special to preserve that life. And I don't much care if or when I die. There isn't much I want to accomplish other than to learn things, and when I die that knowledge will be lost. So it's all just filling time.

Mental masturbation.
Im serious. There is nothing more fun then coming up with some hodge podge idea and getting excited about it.
Also, skimming over great ideas and concepts just taking the most fun and mind bending parts without going into too much detail.

Of course, im a loser with zero achievments in life so..

If my death guaranteed the success of the construction of the Machine, I'd happily accept it, because such a death would nullify itself.

It'd also mean that I don't have to build the thing, which would be nice because that's going to be a lot of work.

To end the pain

I have nothing I'd die for....what I seek is purpose. If I could find a true feeling and sense of purpose then whatever the purpose would be I'd willingly die for that purpose. Yet as a man with no purpose the only thing I seem to value is living

Recently I started thinking about the problem of consiousness after reading some deleuze and watching a 14 hours course on philosophy(and rading some bergson and hegel).
It came to me that scientific methodology is an extention of the part of our consiousness that inspetcs exterior reality and that looking at your brain through an MRI as compared to feeling yourself from the inside are two aspetcs of doing the same thing. (i.e. looking at yourself controting your face in the mirror and feeling yourself doing it on the inside are two aspects of the same thing)

A very rough aquivalent is looking at a video feed of an event and an audio feed. Both pass information about the same thing but are different.
Likewise our neurons firing as seen through an MRI machine and our internal experience of ourselves existing are two different descriptions of the same thing.

Later on i sarted doubting myself as physical alteration of the boy effect our subjective experieces of ourselves but our subjective experience of ourselves, the part that isnt inspecting outside reality cannot so drastically cange our physicality as seen through an MRI(the scentific method).

Then I started thinking that our physical actions are exactly that, a result of our experience of ourselves and a change in thinking.
As in, when I act it is a result of all aspects of my consiousness so me doing actions on the external reality IS exactly my mental experience of myself effecting physical reality.

This all was connected to my desire to find a way for a non causal free will.
So inspecting the brain and ourselves through the scientific method is simply an incomplete view of reality that relies on the fact that our experince of the outside presupposes causality. The way our brain structures the data we get form the outside is causal and we cant avoid it.
However us, inthe complete sense, us as we experiecne ourselves in full, us as we experience beuing ourselves is not nessecarily causal.

>>
>>1363049
our full experiene of ourselves is not nessecarily causal because it is more than just our prediliction to structure observation of outside reality causally.
i.e, being consious as we are, is not just causally inspecting reality through our senses but is a fuller experience that also includes feeling ourselves from within.

Meaning that a computer that does calculations can be seen by us from the outside as electrons and chips passing electrictiy but asking about consiousness means also asking how that coputer experiences itself and its work by itself which we cannot know(if it does), at least with current scientific methodologies.

So long story short you like to
>consider the following
so to speak?

I'll admit I didn't fully understand your whole thought, but I got that you tried to figure out some aspects of human consciousness with logical reasoning, something I recall doing as well at some point in the past.
Similarly I also like going through these mental tantrums where my mind brings up some random thought and I begin analyzing it, developing some kind of sense behind mundane stuff and just plain meditating over stuff that either influenced me at a personal level or simply catches my interest. As a matter of fact, I do this before sleep many times and is kind of my way to cope with certain events, old or recent, and basically get over it or to simply tire my brain a bit when I can't sleep.

I just want to find where in modern phlosophy is there room for a true non causal free will.
I think there is.

>>1363049
You are your own consciousness,. Never treat consciousness as something different than yourself.

The "extention part" of our being isn't our being at all.

Though it feels like the rest of my country is activly against these princables, so i guess im a man with no nation, but willing to fight and die for one.
