I am not sure if this is a fallacy. 

The only thing that comes close I know of is bad faith. At least it is lying about who really is responsible for the situation, denying one's own responsibility.

I’m also unsure if this is a fallacy. Having been on the receiving end of this kind of situation, to the extent that I nearly didn’t survive, in my opinion this is more of a mental illness eg Personlity Disorder, Sociapath, Psychopath...

False Equivalance comes to mind but its not exactly accurate in this case. 

Thanks for this link Koti. It’s really humourous. Something I noticed though - I think ‘gang banging’ has a different meaning in British English  . Does for me at least!

A bot would never have so easily leaked confidential information like he did above when revealing the code word classified secret about the pyramids being communication devices. Only a human could pose such a loose security risk and give away such a tightly guarded bit of info. 

The sad part is that he’s maybe not. Perhaps he’s a real person in real life who believes really strongly and is genuine in his expressions of faith.

It’s sad that individuals like this become indistinguishable from poorly programmed robots. Think about that for a moment and reflect on what it means. 

Thank you iNow. I feel much better now  .

Exactly.  

Apologies, I’m rather tired. Too many Old Speckled Hens...

I heard that @Phi for All is a state-of-the art AI kept secret and tested on this site. 

Nah, he’s too nice. But I have really no experience of these things anyway

I’m convinced it’s a bot. This actually works on many levels

Actually, i thought the same last week on a different thread.

I’m just ‘praying’ (:-)) that Strange is NOT a BOT!!!

It would make more sense if you would elaborate on your explanation.

Ok. Well, you seem to be very hung up on ‘your existence’ as opposed to just ‘existence ‘. You seem to be quite upset by the fact that there is no scientific evidence to show you were created for a reason. To the extent that you have to imagine one.

All in all, your responses in general seem to indicate you are a person with narcissistic tendencies.

You should know, you quoted it yourself.

 

Right. Yes. Actually I thought it was quite a good counter argument/explanation or else I wouldn’t have posted it.

Forgive me - what was the argument again?

If the present scientific world view cannot explain the very core of my existence, then it is not a complete model of reality no matter how well it models the reality around me.

And here we have the problem:

iNow, I think naitche was describing the same viewpoint as yours?

Agree.

Hell yeah, it is!

This was just the first link I clicked on in a search for ‘how do steroids work’.

With regards to your other questions - there’s loads of detailed information you can find yourself with a little bit of searching.

 Yeah, much better - couldn’t remember how to spell it

I think you should reconsider the title of this thread and perhaps rename it ‘Let the shit hit the fan’.

You’re welcome!

They are likely to be flea larvae.

Go to either a pet shop or vets for advice but you’ll need to buy products to treat both your cats and your home. Make sure you follow the instructions rigidly as fleas are incredibly resilient and difficult to rid.

Good luck!

I’d quite like to open a thread discussing the possible pros and cons of using this technique in humans. Where would I post it please?

Summary:

Glanzman and his team gave the snails a series of electric shocks to their tails. "The result is, their reflexes were greatly enhanced. If we touched their skin, they'll contract very strongly."
When the snails were good and jumpy, the team extracted RNA from their nervous systems and injected it into untrained snails.
"Twenty-four hours later, we tested the reflexes of those snails, and they showed the same reflexes of those that had been given electrical shocks," Glanzman said.

Cool. You might get better sleep now instead of feeling spaced out when you get off the phone.  

That would certainly be welcomed.

Thanks String Junky.

I’ve altered it now. I did come across the setting before at some point but must have forgotten about it.

What's that? If the whites are too much and you use W10 you can set up the 'Night Light' (Type that in the taskbarsearch box) andyou can add more amber to it to make lit ess glaring or you can get F-Lux which will do the same. Their main function is to reduce the screen's blue light which can mess up your sleep patterns when you look at your screen at night because your brain still thinks it''s daylight.. I always have some amber mixed in in the daytime... easier on my eyes.

Is there anything you know of that can be used on an iPhone? I use the Reader View on sites where it’s available but this is the site I’m viewing most often and it’s not.

Thanks.

Perhaps you could start by saying what you think it is?
