Much to my surprise this thing is an awesome example of machine work.
It even came with a spare gas chamber Win Win.

2017-07-09 at 8:55 PM UTC in The Retarded Thread: Click Here for AIDSOh, about the math, I forgot to mention something. I've seen it mentioned that there's a common trait among aspies where if a subject doesn't interest us we find it impossible to pay attention. Exactly how I feel about math and other subjects. Of course, when there's genuine interest, especially a high level, fascination, bam, full aspie powers unlocked and unleashed.
Also, I wasn't kidding about the difference Nardil made, beginning to really recover from depression for so long. I really am getting back my old self, my ability, being able to actually utilize my cognition, my strengths, more of the power my mind/brain has.
It's pretty undeniable right? There's an immense different in the post length I can churn out. Of course you guys won't consider this something positive, but it certainly is for university, of course the writing style and quality would be very different than casual unedited stream of consciousness posts on a message board.
This is kind of cool. I'd really like to see just how far I can go, develop myself. Especially once university starts, I'm 100% certain it's going to make an immense positive difference, although of course it's going to take time to adjust and for the effects to take place. -
2017-07-09 at 8:10 PM UTC in The Retarded Thread: Click Here for AIDSShut the fuck up, CF. Repeating lines like this is annoying as hell, there's nothing funny about it. The people who do this are completely uncreative and simply too stupid to think of anything novel and creative. It makes you look like an obnoxious idiot.
What exactly do you expect it to accomplish? That we're going to decide to stop making longer posts, begin shitposting and behaving like the majority of members, or even stop posting at all? It's never dissuaded us at all for years that people have complained and commented on the length, why the fuck would it now?
You're doing nothing but adding worthless posts, wasting your time and effort, and embarrassing yourself.
Yeah, yeah, I'm sure you "didn't read" this as well. Brilliant, you sure showed me. -
2017-07-09 at 7:20 PM UTC in The Retarded Thread: Click Here for AIDSThe great thing about being a philosophy major is that I don't have to take any math classes beyond general education. Fuck yeah, nigga.
Fuck math, I hate it!!!
The justifications for taking mathematics are absolutely false, there are critical flaws in the idea people have of its actual value to the vast majority. Sploo, you will like this. Translation: An attempt at rationalization and self-delusion to avoid accepting that I'm simply stupid and intellectually lazy.
#1) It does not teach you "how to think". This is related to the concept of the transfer of learning, which is part of the field of study of education. Unfortunately so few people are familiar with this term, ever come across it, when it's necessary to know in order to be able to locate the relevant research/papers. It's been studied for so long, it isn't a new concept at all. The answer is absolutely clear, learning in general is highly specific and does not transfer.
Not only that, but there are classes in the field of philosophy that essentially do specifically teach you this, and they're far far superior. They're the series of classes on logic.
#2) The vast majority of people do not use math beyond a basic level at their occupation. Easy research. IIRC the percentage who did was only around 5%, and of course that doesn't tell you just how advanced the math they used is. Many likely don't utilize any beyond fairly basic algebra.
#3) Retention: https://www.gwern.net/Spaced%20repetition
Long term retention is incredibly poor, especially if you never use it IRL. If you don't at least think about, or read about it.
If something you learned in university isn't a regular part of your life in some manner, if you never utilize it, it doesn't cross your mind, for the vast majority of people (Of course there's always variation in memory (e.g. me)).
There's a large amount of research on this and the results are clear and consistent, particularly with the learning style most students utilize, commonly referred to as "cramming".
#4) Genuine grasp as opposed to simple rote memorization and regurgitation.
Once again, researched. No, the vast majority of students/graduates do not have a genuine grasp of mathematics and are completely unable to apply it in a manner where it could actually be utilized IRL, demonstrate a fundamental understand, a grasp of the underlying logic.
/end list. There may have been something I missed, but these are the most important items. Do they genuinely understand it? Do they use it? Does it teach you "how to think"? Do they even remember it? Then what the fuck is the point? It's a genuine question. It's absolutely useless, an unbelievable waste of time and resources that contributes to the incredibly harmful effects of the current higher education system on society and individuals.
So, essentially, I genuinely believe that the vast majority of mathematics should not be a requirement for most people, even for general ed. Of course the obvious exception is the stem field, fields of study that specifically involve it and lead to careers that utilize it as a key part of the occupation. This is just obvious.
The vast majority of people (data available) do not enjoy mathematics or have an affinity for it. Completely unsurprising since it's so out of alignment with our evolutionary history. Most simply do not have the genetic/biological/neurological makeup, the personality and cognitive traits, cognitive style.
Now, as such a strong hyper-systemizer, an aspie, why wouldn't I be able to grasp it. No, I could, and I have, when needed; far above the level of of the average student (Nothing to brag about, not as if it's difficult), grasping it far faster. In elementary I would consistently score extremely high, the 99th percentile, on the yearly standardized test, the Stanford 9, and of course regular assignments and tests were no problem.
The answer is fairly simple: I don't feel any affinity toward it, I don't enjoy it all, have an interest in it, and I have no need for it, it has no practical value in my life. I find it incredibly tedious, repetitive, painfully, unbearably, boring. Most of the bullshit classes, mandatory classes that have nothing to do with your major, are already enough of a slog, but I find math to, by far, be the worst slog of all.
I literally never tried once I entered middle school. Although, amusingly, during one year we spent regular time in the computer class doing math assignments there and I managed to, by far, be at the top of the class. My best friend was in there too and he was smart as hell (Couldn't beat my performance in elementary, of course). Far more well rounded, knowledgeable/well read, functional, and driven, than I was. I was the really eccentric slacker type who followed his own independednt interests.
Once I entered high school I recall I genuinely, no exaggeration, refused to pay attention, read or study the book, or do any work at all, because I found it so excruciatingly dull and uninteresting. Of course I'm not going to know shit if I did this and never independently studied the subject, how on earth could I?
Now, one exception, at least, is statistics. This is an absolutely critical subject to study and fully grasp; as in have it memorized, read books multiple times until it's ingrained. It is absolutely necessary for logic, rational analysis, to be able to fully understand studies/papers/research, the data, spot any flaws, understand what's being conveyed, the methods and crucial results. -

Originally posted by hydromorphone I really don't care who reads my posts or not. I write them because it fulfills something in me, and anyone who wants to discuss on what I've written and read it, then more power to them… the people who don't, like you, then well… I don't really give a fuck. I'd rather you not read them. Please, Captain Faggot, Infinitycuck, Sploo… you faggots, please, please, please don't read my posts. Even §m£ÂgØL, don't post "didn't read" just don't read it.
I like to read Malice's posts, even if it's not something I am interested in, or find useful, I will at least skim over it, and pick out the good parts. If not for posts like that, then I may never have discovered things that have come to really help me in my life, or dawned on me… so I appreciate that he takes the time to write long, detailed posts like that.
That's funny you felt like addressing that you didn't read my observations. I also think it's funny, God knows you did read and whether if you did or didn't- had you have- you'd have been incredibly insulted or me addressing anything about you. I get an email for me asking after the pics you sent something "If you can't or don't want to, I'll understand if you just don't reply as that being a "No". Thanks, bye." or something to the effect. I asked for pics that may include yourself, and since youve been pretty fuckign paranoid to give me the pictures of us together with the baby, I just though "hmm… he could crop himself out and that would save him anxiety and worry over that, and I could have the pics of my son and shit…cool" and again, I would have understood if it was a problem, but if he didn't want to or whatever, that'd have been okay too… I gave up a long time ago ever having those pics of my child, but then… lo! I am accused of not being able to deal with my past. L.O. Fucking L. I have issues with my past, but I deal with them, and I certainly not paranoid enough to fucking not send pics of non-graphic nature containing their child with me when they had graphic, embarrassing pics already (no longer-I'm not a NARC. This fucker here screenshots incriminating evidence to hang on to, FYI… Remember, temp notes, PGP, whatever it may be is only as good as the person you're sending a message to. Important enough I felt the need to say it, not just for this user, but in general- it's hilarious though When I began taking screenshots of personal messages, but nothing… going to get anyone in trouble with the law just to PROVE when he'd deny saying something to me, just so I could show him when his scizo shit cropped up and his mind would alter a memory soooo fucking much.)
My mistake here was thinking he'd understand where I was coming from… He can't do that. He thinks the world is out to get him, or that hmm… me askign for something and clearly explaining it, then he flips it… and still… still fucking wants to make an issue over it… LOL and omg… I insult and disrespect him. I treat him like I treat everyone on here and try to be as unbiased as possible. He clearly said he doesn't respect me, even when we engaged in sexual things, so… who doesn't respect who here, really? Anyway… moving on…
§m£ÂgØL, Please, for fuck's sake, don't fucking read my posts. I will assume forever you don't, so you don't every need to tell me you didn't read them. Thx.
Absolutely didn't read. -

If you read at 300 words per minute, which is not fast, you should finish in 3 minutes.
I fucking swear, you goddamn instant gratification lazy pieces of shit today. This is exactly what was predicted. You motherfuckers don't read anything substantial nowadays unless you're forced to in school and can't find a way to weasel (cheat) out of it. No wonder the vast majority of people are effectively mentally retarded by my standards. You don't even deserve to be considered humans, you're not much different than lower animals. READ!!! -
2017-07-08 at 10:22 AM UTC in Since there seems to be some confusion: a short guide on how to driveSince there seems to be some confusion: a short guide on how to drive
1. Drive in the appropriate lane. The lane farthest left is the fast lane (in the US). I don't care if you're doing 90 in a 35 zone, if someone comes up behind you, move into the slow lane and let them by. Do not stay in the fast lane because "they shouldn't be going that fast anyway." You are not the police. It is not your job to tell people how fast they should be going. That person could be rushing a stabbing victim to the hospital for all you know. Or they might just want more beer. It's none of your fucking business either way. Move.
2. If you can't maintain a speed greater than 5 below the speed limit on a two lane road, you should not be driving. I don't care how much you value your independence. I don't care if you're driving some piece of shit moped. Either get off the road, find a different way with lower speed limits or more lanes, or, if you absolutely must go that way, pull over into the shoulder and let people by if a train of cars is forming behind you.
3. Put on your turn signal before you hit the brakes. If you randomly hit the brakes and then put on your turn signal 2 seconds before your turn, you might as well have not even signaled. That's like flushing the toilet before you take a shit; it's maddeningly unhelpful and the person behind you will not be pleased.
4. The shoulder does not magically become a driving lane on a crowded interstate unless you are emergency services. Not only does it make congestion worse, but you very well could cost someone their life if an ambulance can't get through. All just to save a few minutes.
5. Driving 2 inches from my rear bumper on a two lane road does not magically make the person in front of me go faster. Don't fucking do it unless you are desperate for higher insurance payments.
6. At a 4-way stop, the person that stops at the sign first goes first. Glancing around to make sure nobody is moving, then cruising through the stop sign is not acceptable. If there is no one on any side of the 4-way stop except you, feel free to cruise through if you're willing to risk a ticket.
7. The double-yellow line is not a suggestion. Don't fucking cross it.
8. Those dotted white lines on a 4 (or more) lane road are not suggestions. Unless you're changing lanes, don't fucking cross them.
9. A green traffic light means "Go."
Not "finish your text and go." Not "find whatever you're digging in between your seats for and then go." Not "finish smacking your children and then go." It means "Go. Now. "
10. Don't stop 2 inches behind a driver at a red light on a steep hill. Keep your distance. If that person is driving a manual transmission and rolls backwards into you, guess who's getting blamed?
11. If you're driving and somebody begins to pass you, do not speed up just to prevent them from passing you. If you're actually going to continue going faster, fine. But if you immediately slow down right after that driver pulls in behind you, and then speed back up when they attempt to pass you again, you need to kill yourself in the most painful way possible. There is no fucking reason for this. Ever. All I can do is pray to God that this doesn't happen in other states/countries, because this is literally one of the stupidest and most maddening things I've ever seen, and I see it all the time. I can't even begin to understand why people do this.
Fucking South Carolinians can't drive for shit.

Not saying her tats are nice though. The one on her inner arm with the face is kinda cool but otherwise they're terrible. Her hands look like they have tire treads. She probably wanted to get large spaces done really cheap.
septum piercings look awful and the whole idea of them detracts from a womans femininity. its repulsive -
2017-07-08 at 4:47 AM UTC in The Retarded Thread: Click Here for AIDSDamn, even my explanation of why I'm making long posts was too long for you pitiful ADD riddled cognitive untermensch. What's your reading speed?! What's your reading speed?!
I also included valuable information about developing the skill to consistently ignore them and then going beyond and applying the same concept to other time sinks, the tangentially related highly important and valuable subject of rational ignorance, improving your ability to consistently and rapidly make judgments on what is truly important, what should be given (sequential) priority, the multitude of negative effects of common time sinks, and the benefits of surpassing this. At the very least, think about how much time could be liberated, which can be utilized for far more important and enjoyable matters.
The last segment was about flmodafinil, which I clearly noted and stated you could skip. -
