Hahahaha! Marriage, social tribalism, and war are left, then. There are many reasons they are other things that are different from technology. But, can you give me an argument why they are specifically not technology? Or would you rather me try to give my reasoning why they are technology, first?

Lol not IN the kettle, but made with the hot water you get from the kettle.
Also I'm talking hot cocoa, not hot chocolate. Two different things, one is with water, one is with milk, at least in my casually defined book.
lists fire as technology
Everybody itt:
fire is not technology wahhh
Ah. I missed the fine print part that says the actual data is from census polls, rather than what is actually likely. When you said "that doesn't mean all those people identify that way", I was like BUT THAT'S THE WHOLE POINT. That does change my impression of the graph significantly, because that would not necessarily mean the numbers are "actual", but rather, should read "actual poll data".
Most of the graph I feel is about right, too. I just find it hard to believe a lot of the upper half of the stuff is so wildly wrongly estimated AND that non-hertero sexualities is still portrayed as basically legacy data, rather than trying to forecast what we all know would be if people weren't repressed by society. Again, though, it's this way to fit a narrative, thus my minor issue.
Not with that attitude
I hear that x, y, z, a, aa, ab, foo, and bar all make great names.
25 of the 180 in the first 6 months this year so far are foreign nationals.
I was going to ask what percentage were just visitors, specifically tourists.
That place just hates everybody. Gay? Death. Lesbian? Death. Drugs? Death.
You don't think humans will ever, even theoretically, reach a point where there is no need to burn things for heat?
Didn't think I'd ever see THAT again. Damn lol
Have you used one before? If so, how did it go? What are the pros and cons?
Is evolution not technology? Plus, a lot of this stuff is used as tools, as a means to an end, rather than just purely emotional reptilian response. A lot of it IS reptilian, but a lot of it is also vestigial, as a conscious tool, especially when used by a society, rather than a single biological person.
It's complicated, for sure. But so are the rest of the usages of old technology.
Back to the topic of biology vs technology, though, violence strictly speaking, is an abstract concept of events. We evolved it as a categorization or idea through the technology of language and conceptualization. The instinct in certain parts of our brains is biology, absolutely (and arguably also technology). But violence as a tool, as a means, I argue, is absolutely technology, in the same way that fire, or hunting, or fast food is technology.
If it is something developed, used, and can be moved past, I'd argue that it can be seen as technology. It doesn't have to be electronic or even physical to be technology. Like farming methods, social structures, government, and even language.
I'm not saying they aren't biological, that's a different subject. But those things are absolutely technologies. Just very primitive ones.... That we still use.
Por que no los dos
