  • I am no psychologist but it’s about how their day night cycle develops which is very different from adults.

    Daylight is one of the systems it uses to self regulate and start feeling awake.

    School actually starts to soon in many places, that already a major part of it. Research (not at hand) actually show grades go up if school starts later. We basically force kids to be tired to fit our schedule and it gets worse for teens.

    With delayd sunlight. They wont really be properly awake for almost half their “productive” day”.

    We also know that lack of sleep is a pillar of mental health conditions, now include all the dormant mental health conditions kids already carry and with growing up in this timeline.


  • Yes i know, from the perspective of others i got sidetracked but its part of a larger thing in my brain where intellectual property is a symptom of the capitalist disease. I mentioned the autism thing, we tend to connect dots on all scales.

    I could go on and explain how IP can actually become a form of thought police. (Things being invented just to cencor them/The creator of Disco Elysium being banned to publish things from his own paracosm universe) but to be honest your replies have been lacking substance and i am rather tired of defending this towards someone who is not going to change their right. (Which is your right, i respect your entitlement to your beliefs)


  • Of course not, it runs on people wanting to live in and improve society.

    Money is a system we invented long after society was already a thing, it’s not a required part of it.

    Of course you are correct to think of me as an idealist but my general stance is that while perfection can never be archived you should strive for perfection to get closest to it.

    Combined with a lifelong pursuit of growth and improvement you keep getting closer to that perfection and the fact you cant archive it means there is always something else to improve and not get bored.

    That is my real life work attitude, how i can jump from “high level” complex tasks to “dumb” repetitive labor tasks while still having job satisfaction because even those repetitive labor tasks have a non perfect structure i love to keep improving with every repetition.


  • I am not sure this logic holds well.

    People who are rich are still involved in society to the point i wish they would stop exploiting to chase more profit and just retire already with their near infinite wealth.

    And the actual retirees your refer towards that don’t do anything are usually old people who slaved an entire career for a total less then some rich “earn” in a single day.

    I do think people who build cool stuff deserve to be rewarded though, we could give them a cool artwork, trow them a party or just continue to respect and thank them for their accomplishments.

    Currently the reward is “here are the means that someone else could use to not starve that you can now use to go on a holiday with.”

    The fruit of our labor should be a better world for everyone and future generations.

    The belief that people won’t work without external pressure is contradicted by human history, cooperative work and mutual aid have existed for millennia before formal economies developed.

    Its known that when people’s basic needs are met, the desire to create and contribute is a natural human drive.

    Also as a bit of a sidenote to avoid confusion, i believe all people deserve and could be given more comfort and luxury then their labor currently grants them. So its not correct that i would not want people to have those things, just that it should be non conditional.

    I am aware that there are people like that that exists and that its quite a big number of people

    But I will never understand how people like that exist. And to be very controversially honest I don’t trust the sincerity and thus ideas of people that think like this. Though i still respect such people like anyone else all the same.

    Granted i am a certified autist but personal gain has almost no value to me, to the point that being paid actually demotivates me because:

    • I believe i deserve to have a good quality life regardless of economic value and know that statistically humanity has enough resources/food to guarantee such for everyone. It being conditional makes me feel exploited.

    • I always want to be the best possible version of myself and accomplish whatever i, with my human limitations, am able to, which has the most general positive effect on the total universe. Regardless of anything. I consider it personality offensive others assume i would want anything else.

    I feel devaluated because society appears convinced that i would not do work if they were not threatening my survival, and because corporate hierarchy is what it is i actually have to underachieve all the time because fighting to make actual improvements would quickly threaten the control of higher ups and thus become a risk for my own means of survival.

    Sure, if i could solve climate change and no one would even thank me for it leaving starving poor then i would be very sad. But self worth and identity would be Intact because i would be doing what i know is right.

    While changing that in favour of stock trading maybe my life standards would be better but with the lack of any real value and living of a system designed around exploitation of existing value will make me feel worse to the point i may actually end up an existential crisis and kill myself.

    To die sooner for the right reasons is a better life than to survive longer for the wrong reasons.

    While i know my stance is rare i know there are plenty of people who think exactly like i do about this.

    Anyway i also got a bit side tracked because this wasn’t about ip laws anymore, but my belief remains that if people can work on what they want without it affecting their personal access to luxury then there is no reason why they would not work on things that benefit all of society and thus themselves.

    Objectively,

    Because we would be avoiding the 2 jet lag times a year which have been proven to cause deadly (traffic) accidents.

    Because the other alternative of always dst means sun only gets up at 10am in winter which can negatively impact mental health (especially for children and teenagers)

    Subjectively,

    Because some people actually enjoy summer nights.

    Because getting up on time is easier with more sunlight. And waking gradually and naturally at 5:30 beats waking forcefully by alarm at 6:30

    I understand what you are saying but i hope you never invent something that can solve a current day crisis.

    We are already behind schedule to solve things like climate change. If someone invents breakthrough tech then we need that today and open so other minds can quickly iterate and improve. Not after 20 years of stalling on a bureaucratic advantage.

    If it wasn’t for capitalism chaining survival to productivity there would be no reason for this system to exist and we can move on to teach that “all good ideas should be copied” And “the same ideas can emerge in multiple different minds”

    I would listen to music but in 90% of times that music is controlled by my phone and my mind always seems to get lost on Lemmy while looking for the music controls.

    Gaming and computers in general became more stress than fun a while ago and never liked tv. I should pick up reading again but in a way thats still staring my eyes at a flat surface.

    I would not recommend for people to casually start trimming plantlife in the wild. /s

    Unironically though there might be lots of insects living within that ecosystem that rely on it. If you don’t need something for a dish or specific resource, just leave it alone.




  • The textbook:

    “After the likeness of [this] angel. He made the incorruptible [generation] of Seth appear to the 12 androgynous [luminaries. And then] he made 72 luminaries appear in the incorruptible generation according to the Spirit’s will. Then the 72 luminaries themselves made 360 luminaries appear in the incorruptible generation according to the Spirit’s will so that there’d be 5 for each. And the 12 realms of the 12 luminaries make up their father, with 6 heavens for each realm so there are 72 heavens for the 72 luminaries, and for each 1 [of them 5] firmaments [for a total of] 360 [firmaments. They] were given authority and a [great] army of angels without number for honor and service, along with virgin spirits [too] for the honor and [service] of all the realms and the heavens with their firmaments.”
