Memory of the World Programme https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memory_of_the_World_Programme Humanity must have some people who remember some distant things that they knew happened in the past and go to study them. Or they may be forgotten over generations. This is what is required for the memories to be preserved across generations. Who does it? Historians. Do they do a good job? I don't know if I've really heard this interpretation of the study of history before where it's not only just something we should do on the side for Hallmark card level reasons as to why, but is instead legitimately something we actually have to do or the information will be lo…

I think it's going to kill me. discuss. also, i should add, i've never liked sleeping. It always felt like i was wasting time and could b…

thanks to iococoi for sharing this video in the youtube thread: Spoiler but this definitely needs it's own topic Ganbreeder: Ganbreeder is a collaborative art tool for discovering images. Images are 'bred' by having children, mixing with other images and being shared via their URL. This is an experiment in using breeding + sharing as methods of exploring high complexity spaces. GAN's are simply the engine enabling this. Ganbreeder is very similar to, and named after, Picbreeder. It is also inspired by an earlier project of mine Facebook Graffiti which demonstrated the creative capacity of crow…

Upgrading my iPhone (boring news), new iPhones don’t have headphone jacks (boring problem), I have top shure headphones for years (boring fact). So I need some nifty device to power my earphones. Are these any good? I would really appreciate the help because my head is seriously aching. I can’t read anymore on the subject tbh. Thank you.

Weight lifting? Pole vaulting? Running? Sprinting? Speed walking? Shooting? Skiing? Snowboarding? Archery? Skydiving? Snorkeling? Fishing? Magnet fishing? You have to tell this thread about it and if you know of any other categories please add them too, please give an autistically detailed description of this activity and the reason why you enjoy it on the phenomenological level

What is the nature of IDM as a meme? What ratio of people start loving IDM then get bored of it? Is it the same as any other genre in terms of that?

When anyone else reads this article do they get the feeling that this guy's diagnosis of schizophrenia is incorrect? https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/not-the-whole-person/201801/can-marijuana-trigger-schizophrenia What's wrong with walking on the beach barefoot and feeling connected to nature? Sounds pretty reasonable to me. The dude overestimated his swimming skills when he went into the ocean, but that happens to lots of people, like hikers and mountain climbers.

I saw this article http://gizmodo.com/the-bizarre-world-of-unsolicited-mark-zuckerberg-fan-ar-1778828784 and realised it's been several years since we had the the Kristen Stewart thread. Portraits can be MSPaint or any other medium you see fit (would love a lush watercolour of The Zucc). Go!!

https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007%2Fs00213-018-5119-x Here's the link to the study, basically they found that while under the influence of lsd subjects were able to more accurately reproduce lengths of time that they experienced. ie it's like the brains internal timer was made more accurate. I don't think I have to explain why this is significant for music.. Thoughts?
