It's obvious in the light of pure reason that everyone needs to lift

[–] Xantar@lemmy.dbzer0.com 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

For we all are but mechanical animals after all. Designed to lift.

[–] Shareni@programming.dev 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Animals are machines, humans have free will and therefore can choose to lift

[–] xXxOxhamxXx@beehaw.org 3 points 1 year ago

...especially on leg days.

This is the result of putting Descartes before the horse.

[–] Stalinwolf@lemmy.ca 18 points 1 year ago

Big Papa Descartes

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Principles_of_Philosophy

The work provides a systematic statement of his metaphysics and natural philosophy, and represents the first truly comprehensive, mechanistic account of the universe.

A PhD is a Doctor of Philosophy for a reason. He is a seminal figure in the history and philosophy of science and greatly influenced the scientific method. He also laid the foundations for multiple fields.

No, no. The philosophy of science is super cool but not well taught.

[–] Fizz@lemmy.nz 9 points 1 year ago

He knows what he got and he isn't afraid to show it off.

[–] Sam_Bass@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

Aint no writer gonna have quads like that

[–] mindbleach@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 year ago

The moment I knew discourse about image AI would never be sensible was when someone expanded The Birth Of Venus and people were talking shit about the composition. Like the goal was to improve on Botticelli... not to demonstrate this absurd magic that was impossible six months earlier.

[–] pruwybn@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 1 year ago

Is he preparing to give birth?

[–] mihor@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Too bad he was a piece of turd otherwise.

[–] fossilesque@mander.xyz 3 points 1 year ago
