Its pretty considerable ngl. Eggs have blank shells. Advertizing has no limits!

Yes. I was just looking for that kind of answer. My poor English might made it become waste of time but thanks for sharing opinion.

I'm asking how we want it. I'm asking what kind of causality the brain uses to want it. It's very difficult to explain what's in my mind. Let's take earthquakes for example, earthquakes don't just shake the earth as they please, right? There are certain continental movements, land plates form, these plates move with certain underground movements and we shake because of the friction, movement, cracks and pressure. Take the winds on Earth, the wind doesn't just blow wherever it wants to, certain pressures, landforms, antecedent and successor winds, things like that allow winds to happen where and when they want to happen. Before we humans knew about these mechanics of earthquakes and winds we thought they were random, but thanks to science we have mapped them and now with our current knowledge we can at least make high-powered predictions. And if you are not a religious person, you are more likely to think that the "life" of us humans and other living beings is not something that was created in such a monumental way. It is, in essence, a complex structure of energy cycles in which inanimate beings live with each other in a given ecosystem. And human beings have a lot of mechanics. There are many details that affect our will. It's not random and we can't decide anything. Can we be predictable beings with a lot of mechanics like emotions, thoughts, certain movements of atoms and molecules inside us, the society and the world we live in?

Some nails and coal are pretty enough.

That's exactly what I'm trying to ask, what caused this? Was it already prepared and foreseeable? Or did I just want to brush my teeth. I think we humans don't live in a cause-and-effect relationship and so I think it's difficult to give a clear answer to that question. Maybe if I could come up with a rationalization, it would be: I need to be clean, for the health of my teeth, to keep up the routine, etc.

Wow, you've given me a lot of research topics. I can't say that I am as well versed in the culture of philosophy as you are, so I will research the topics you mentioned one by one and get back to you.

As free will, we can handle any choice you make. At least that's what I mean. Everything you choose in life, whether you brush your teeth this morning, whether you drink tea or coffee. More broadly, your ideologies, your reactions in life, whether you choose to be a "bad person" as a result of bad experiences. The holy books say we can choose these things. That we can determine our destiny by these decisions and that it is up to us to choose between heaven or hell. I think this is wrong and I wanted to ask you all my opinion. There will always be certain criteria and certain limits when we make choices. But what I am curious about is the predictability of our choices.

 

Maybe this has come up before, but I still wanted to ask. Lately, I’ve been a bit confused about whether we really have free will or not. I’m not religious and I don’t really believe in metaphysics. I’d probably call myself agnostic. I’ve just been questioning life more than I used to, and this thought keeps popping into my head.

Do we actually have free will? Like, can we really choose things the way religious texts say we can? What made me think about this is how predictable the micro world seems to be—but when you go deeper into the quantum level, things get really chaotic and complex.

On top of that, as people, we’re constantly shaped by what we go through, and it feels like our reactions and choices get more limited over time.

What do you think about all this?

forgot to add+ and most Linux malwares are targeting servers. Malwares that targeting casual Linux users are very niche.

You have a point. But Linux Out of the Box always immune to any Windows virus like the meme says. And average Linux guy would still have protections on. But yeah, having a shield dont mean we wont ever get hit.

I know the answer. People is lazy unless they have interest in it. Everybody wants happiness biologically but nobody makes a move to have it. People hate Windows, tries to remove Edge, make performance settings, use 3rd party awful things to improve Windows, but nobody gives any other OS a try. Same thing for the browsers, extensions like that etc. People think its matrix-ish and something weirdo. Who would use Matrix instead of Discord? Who would use any FF fork instead of Opera GX or Chrome? Who would use Lemmy and any ActivityPub media instead of Meta products or Reddit etc. We are full of prejudice, and dont want to move out from the comfort zone. We dont want to make a important choice for our privacy-safety unless it become viral in TikTok.

Its super scary that there are many people not using it.
