I don't know what ama is, ama
| Why did you not Google ama before posting
| Did you find out what ama means?
| Ask my ass
| feet
| ama? a mutilated appendage. everyone knows that. literally everyone has one on this siteorino
| what's knowing?
| >>971992 I guess knowing is when you consider a belief about the world as something that has a high probability of being true. Unfortunately, the probability is never 0 or 100, so technically we don't know anything.
| >>972028 no, there is always a chance that I live in a dream or whatever. It is small but still not zero, so...
| Once I had a nightmare. I knew it was not real, so I tried to wake up. However, no matter how hard I tried, each time I woke up in another nightmare that I knew was not real. I wanted to wake up but couldn't. Even killing myself didn't work. I thought that I was trapped there forever.
| hmm
| I love sex
| Wrong your, I blame Swype/auto correct
| >>972126 yeah, I am not saying that I don't have any thoughts. I am saying that I can't disprove the possibility that my own experience is a lie.
| Cool, right? It is called probatio diabolica or whatever.
| Also, Descartes doesn't really make sense either. "I think therefore I am". What is thinking? Having thoughts. What is "I think therefore I am"? It is a thought!
So, we can translate this to "The thought that I have thoughts is a proof of my existence". What is the opposite of that? "Lack of thoughts means non-existence". That is simply not true. A rock doesn't think but it exists, right? So, having thoughts and existing are two separate things.
| I am fun at parties
| >>972176 my id changed I was continuing>>972028 >>972037
I think I didn't word things well
I was mostly nit picking >>972020 "technically we don't know anything"
By saying that you are 100% certain about whatever thought you have, irrespective of the correctness of the contents of that thought
Even if you're a brain in a vat you can't be wrong about what you're thought is, if that makes sense even if that thought itself is wrong
| >>972049 pro tip if you want to ever control your dreams (lucid dreaming) just start reading something. a sign, a paper, a book, anything
| >>972178 rocks dont exist. you dont have any proof rocks exist. you might believe your are seeing a rock but you cant ever be sure its really there. after all, what if you are dreaming a rock
| >>972180 but how do I prove to myself that I have thoughts? Is that even possible? Is personal experience enough to say something with 100% certainty?
| >>972254 so you are thinking that thinking and existing is the same thing, right? I am leaning towards a separation of thinking and existing. I don't have any proof though.
| have you try sex before?
| What's your thoughts on sex dolls?
| >>972321 I think they are dangerous because you can give up on women entirely. I am not that desperate at the moment.
