  • You misunderstand. You don’t have to know disease to have health. However, the term “health” implies by its definition the existence of “non-health”, or “disease”. It’s a contrast. If that were not the case, if disease didn’t exist anywhere, then you wouldn’t even know what “healthy” meant, because that would imply the existence of non health which wouldn’t exist.

    So if you want to be healthy, you must accept that some unhealthiness exists somewhere, otherwise you wouldn’t know if you were healthy or not. The same way for light to exist, darkness must exist as well. You wouldn’t know what a melody was without the spaces between the notes.

    I’m not saying wishing to be happy is bad, btw. However, do realize you wouldn’t know what happiness was if that was all you ever experienced. So being unhappy is not all bad. It will pass. The same way happiness will eventually come and pass. Don’t let these roadbumps and fluctuations of emotions stand in the way of your goals, is what I’m saying.


  • Edit: You are using the false dilemma wrongly. Here’s an example of a false dilemma: “Well, we need to be happy. So, do you want consumerism? Or communism? There’s no third option.” We can still find ways to be happy in a bad system, whether or not we engage in politics.

    Original reply: That’s what I’m saying. How would you know the concept of “health” if being unhealthy wasn’t a thing? Same thing with happiness.




  • This is just my 2 cents, but I’d go for the CPU. Reason being you can upgrade RAM later with more sticks. However, it all depends on your use case, as this is the old memory-cpu tradeoff dilemma.

    Want speed? Go for CPU. Want to have many tabs open, or guarantee a program does not crash due to low memory even if it doesn’t run at full steam? Go for memory.

    Many virtual machines open? Definitely memory. Gaming? CPU… most of the times.



  • I think the term “manly” has been so polluted. I don’t think there is nothing “unmanly” with:

    • Loving nature.
    • Loving your neighbor (even Jesus said to).
    • Loving culture (and accepting other’s culture).
    • Showing emotion (except for you narcissists who use this as an excuse for abuse. Fuck you).
    • Dancing.
    • Going outside just to feel the wind gently blowing your hair and caressing your face.

    We are capable of very complex modes of existing. There is no reason to keep being the same hateful person every day. It takes courage to go out of your confort zone. It takes courage to be a “man”. Whatever it is that word means. Love you all. <3

    Edit: Guys, are comments like this valuable? On Reddit I felt the need to write this way, but everyone seems so chill here…
