Forum Overview :: Motherfucking News :: Somebody's still pissed over her WAREZ privileges getting revoked

[quote name="Mischief Maker"][quote name="Zseni"]I guess this works great as a theory, provided you are willing to assume that everyone is as stupid and easily fooled as you are. That's a dangerous assumption, though - not that you'd know. But take it from me on trust, hm? [/quote] Any more dangerous than assuming the brain's functions can be broken down into a really complex computer-like system, the only thing preventing total immersion of which is the proper input/output adapter cables? I'm of the opinion that this idea that brains work just like computers is more a consequence of our current cultural landscape than serious scientific proof. Yeah, computers do mental tasks like math really super fast, but so do abbcuses. Just because signals travel through long nerves like wire or optic cable signals doesn't necessarily indicate common working function any more than the fact that birds and insects having wings indicates a common winged anscestor. But now I'm getting tired and rambling. I'll continue this line of thought tomorrow.[/quote]
