This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.
If you ever study biochemistry, it leaves you absolutely in awe. The best engineering we can do is pretty amazing, we have computers and airplanes and all this magic stuff, but the stuff in you is a hundred, a thousand times better made. It's stunning. Comparatively speaking, it is perfect. And that's only the stuff we understand. The stuff in your brain, we do not.
In the relatively short amount of time we've had with computers we've made pretty astounding progress though. If we had had a few million years to improve those silicon brains I think we'd give evolution a run for its money!
Yea, our engineered stuff might be simplistic compared to the brain and biology, but evolution is just a combination of luck, randomness and "unguided" trial and error. There's no "thought" to evolution and that's why we end up with all these....weird quirks and flaws LMAO
those quirks are all features, i swear
Antivirus protection could be better, though. Oh, and the built in self destruct is kind of a bummer, too.
Figernails are so annoying
If you ever need to claw your way out of a heap of rubble, you'll be thankful for them.
Rip them off.
It is a planned obsolescence.
I remember a quote from Civ along the lines of "if the brain was simple enough for us to understand, our minds would be to simple to understand it."
I think this might be a case of expecting a fish to climb a tree. Brains are terrible in fp32 performance, and computers are so far not great at reasoning. But that's mostly because they are made for different things. I'm not sure of this, but i would expect a single neuron firing costing a similar amount of energy as a single transistor firing. The difference is in part that they work differently, but I think the most important part is that they are put together differently. Computers were made for arithmetic while brains evolved for socialising and survival. For most other things you are 100% correct though, we could not recreate a bee or an ant even if we wanted to.
I can create real time visual imagery with no apparent resolution limit or perceptible frame rate including audio and a soundtrack.
The fact that we only recently mapped out the brain really tells you a lot about its complexity.
And that was only a fruit fly brain! Human brain still hasn't been mapped.
Watch this whenever you think humans have rivalled nature in building stuff that works.
Nature's crafts in unrivaled
My brain has the same power draw as a Switch 2? This explains a lot...
Just connect your brain up to a monitor and imagine your game with the best graphics you can possibly think of.
Capitalism has us by absolute fools.
Paying $69.99 for something someone else dreamed up.
We have a solution for this, its called going to sleep.
I think I got the shareware version where it kicks me off after a few hours.
I've tried some of the free mods, but I can't really recommend them. Definitely steer clear of frying-pan to the dome, and you won't get any real lasting effect from hold your breath till you're blue.
I remember listening to a podcast with indy devs and they agreed that engaging player's imagination is the best way to make sure your game succeeds. And most indy games don't have the budget for super good graphics.
20% of our body's energy use is our brain, it's a major energy expenditure.
My shit ass wetware needs to lock in and catch up. It can't even run Doom or play back Bad Apple properly.
Visualise playing Doom in your head. It's free, and the cops can't stop you.
"You wouldn't imagine downloading a car, would you?"
Well? Would you?!
.....?
ANSWER ME!!
What would happen if you did the equivalent of feeding your A.I. a healthy diet, then run a parallel system and fed it only burgers and pizza and Doritos?
Nothing, cos energy is energy
My GPU can compute stuff faster than your brain though.
Your GPU might tell you to glue cheese to your pizza, but at least it's fast!
Efficiency wins out.
