Environments are so messy in Cowboy Bebop and I think it's interesting that old people react to it with "omg this world feels so organic and lived in and natural" while younger people react with "jesus christ doesnt anyone clean in this universe? Why is everyone a fucking junkie? Christ some kid's playing the harmonica in a smoking room".

I get why small viruses aren't considered life but I just don't understand why giant viruses are considered nonliving while intracellular oblobigate bacteria like rickettsia are considered to be alive.

It's not really a question of size, but functionality. Viruses have no capability to reproduce on their own, and no biologica funtions other than to stick to and infect host cells. They technically can't even move on their own. They don't move, breed, eat, breath or fuck: they're better described as objects than living things; plausibly the vestige of some bygone cell-signalling method gone horribly wrong.

This is is also true of intracellular obligate bacteria.

Giant viruses have all the nessicary genes for metabolism.

What? What kinds of metabolic functions do they even have? Do they have any catabolic or anabolic activities?

Nice joke!
"Storing explosions and taking them home to put them somewhere more useful" indeed. We can get hydrogen from places far less dangerous than the sun.

Do you think JEWISH NIGGER BOTS are going to be a thing one day? Just niggering along with swinging arms and spinning hands going "BEEP BOOP, I AM A NIGGER. TAKE ME TO YOUR WHITE WOMEN". It plays shitty rap out of every orfice in its body at once. It runs into walls. It runs into people and attacks them and calls the cops on them if they can't be beat by the niggerbot. Nobody can hack the program to make it hate niggers.

>that sounds pretty fake and gay
The proof is evident and pretty straightforward. Everything that manifest into the physical realm has an associated waveform, a crude example of that is the intrinsic resonance of all matter.

Associated waveform of what? What is creating the wave? What is the frequency of this wave? What is happening enough to show a frequency at all?
You're not using words that are commonly defined, you're using words from Deepak Chopra and getting smug that we don't understand your gobbledygook.

The above gives you a glimpse on the mundane scale, the Earth has its own frequency at macro scale, and going to the micro scale we enter into the electric semiconductors' realm where funny things begin to happen. Suffice to say that if demonic activity can be felt, then that presence must be accompanied by a resonance, also the inverse might be valid.

Thanks anon, I guess I'll look into it this week. Also, forgot to mention, I'm not the anon who said it was fake and gay. I'm genuinely interested in the possibility, just not convinced yet.

>Everything that's a wave is spiritual.
In the days of the birth of the internet a group of people did an experiment to banish any demons (paranormal/spiritual beings) from hardware/software. Things crashed and the connection cut before the planet wide banishment occurred fully.
There is correlation of spiritual matters and material matters that's been known for ages.
>>2402
>Waves can do cool stuff.
Like matter and waveforms, beings that are spiritual do also exhibit those qualities barring the stranger ones but those ones aren't a concern right now.
What can be tested is physical effects of stuff made of matter behaving differently when compared to matter that has such beings and when compared to matter in a zone designed to block such beings.
A huge issue is accounting for all the variables and errors.
There's much more than just String Theory but also Spiritual.

To clarify pinning everything as demons (or anything spiritual) be physical waveforms is a stretch without any evidence.
What is known is that the physical and genuinely spiritual do interact.

Sure, I agree. That said, intuition and telepathy lack evidence too, and yet we feel and even use them everyday.

Not quite.
Intuition doesn't depend on the senses, and can alert on something happening remotely. Some people have it, some don't.

I'm trying to work through a certain kind of religion-related thing here, and I'm seeing a ton of new layers to just about every idea. Your post really hits the spot on a number of angles and made connections in my head that I'd never made before. Thanks for that.

I think the point is to create coherent messages from neural networks. It's pretty groundbreaking for the future of cybernetics and/or other computation. Being able to translate an image from electrodes hooked to brainwaves is a pretty big deal. Those images are clearly faces, and recognizably monkey faces (the dark eyeholes, pronounced browline and pale face surrounded by darker colors are a dead giveaway): the machine was able to interpret images from the monkey's memory and imagination by analyzing the part of its brain that produces abstract thoughts.

A lot of that is retroactive confirmation bias, a subconscious coping method that helps people deal with the unknown and unrelenting chaos of the Clownworld we live in.
