    yes, moron, any attempt with anything is fakeable. however thats no reason to make critical stuff depend on more easily fakeable stuff.

  4. yesh, tosh !!!! on Should Dolphins Be Treated As Non-Human Persons? · · Score: 1

    eq is a load of horseshit. anything that has to do with emotion, has to be, HORSEshit. and horse shit too, not any other kind of shit. so, it can be more demeaning.

    the real horseshit is the attitude of science towards emotions, still trying to pigeonhole them into shitty stereotypes based on 'survival instinct'. it is time that the victorian end-age darwinian approach to emotion and emotions should be left back at 19th century, and a new understanding is developed. for, the horseshit we have at hand for dealing with psyche, psychology and emotions, leave aside societal interactions, do not work ...

    basically, if the patent goes first to file, i can patent wheel. or, arithmetic. or, logic. because, i would be the first to file. no no, dont worry whether there would be 'prior art' or anything - i assure you if i can file it, i will find the lawyers to argue for it.

    in terms of iq/eq, dolphins are yang, to our yin. and we are, yin, to their yang.

  10. By the way, sentience is not only 'intelligence' on Should Dolphins Be Treated As Non-Human Persons? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    cognitive abilities are just a part of the concept of sentience. yet, we even tend to categorize humans according to their cognitive process. sentience is not only comprised of particular aspects of cognitive perception and processing. emotion concept is always left out of the definition of sentience, maybe unconsciously. it is wrong. sentience comes in a package.

  11. That is as such. on Should Dolphins Be Treated As Non-Human Persons? · · Score: 4, Interesting

    dolphins have the capability to differentiate in between a human struggling due to drowning in the sea, and someone flapping, blabbing, attempting to swim in the sea for fun, and from a long distance. not even humans have that capability. and this is only one of the capabilities they can field.

    the difference in between humans and dolphins is that, humans are loaded on the iq side, and dolphins, are on the eq side. practically, human and dolphin populations are basically opposite twins of each others, when it comes to social interaction. of course humans are able to field some eq, as well as dolphins are able to field considerable iq. (the mind blobbing 'creating rings and blobs underwater play' pastime of dolphins, what they can do in research centers etc).

    i think it is time we have dropped the late 19th century standards and concepts for sentience (most of which depend on iq, not even basic cognition), and adapt something that is more appropriate with the level of science our civilization has.

    maybe, before huckleberry finn, you people should actually read some world history in your overly self-centered history classes .... all about 'founding fathers', 'liberty', 'freedom' blah blah blah, whereas all of those founding fathers were readers and followers of voltaire, rousseau, diderot and so on.

    yeah. they are french.

    how many of those countries have had to fight for their freedom, how many enjoy a free press, and how many value their liberty as much as we do?

    hahahahaha ......

    everything you know as modern principles of society today, came from europe. this includes the principles of freedom and liberty that you think your founding fathers had invented, in late 18th century. and no, this is not an id-ego crap, but actual history. if you dont know what 'age of enlightenment means', stop thinking on that moronic bit about 'america vs europe', and just read silently from this point on. actually all of those principles were invented in mid 18th century in france during age of enlightenment. all your founding fathers were avid followers of the age of enlightenment, and some of them were personal friends of the pioneering philosophers/writers. and you were lucky in that, there were a handful (maybe approx 100 or so) who were followers of principles of age of enlightenment, among the leaders of your political circle - that way you ended up having a pro-enlightenment constitution written, as opposed to becoming another constitutional monarchy. even at the late stages of the revolution, there were quite a many people who were still royalists, and negative towards the enlightenment oriented ones. heck, after 15-20 years, your nation even has shunned and forced thomas paine out of your country through despicable religious pressure, despite he was one of the few who has pioneered your freedom. tells millions ...

    and the principles leading to these have come from humanism philosophy, which had developed from 15th century towards 18th century, in between italy-netherlands-france-germany.

    it is appalling to hear, an american talks about 'fighting for freedom' over the blood europe spent for making those principles to even be published.

    excuse me, but for someone who is learned in history, all you americans are doing with that 'freedom' pompadour just seems as ignorant cockiness. before your mind despicably wanders off to directions in which you would be tempted to enter an ego struggle with my own personality - im neither north, south american, nor european, nor russian, nor asian, nor african, nor middle eastern or australian, or indian or japanese.

    i will even furnish a link to an easy start on reading about age of enlightenment. anyone who even dares talk about freedoms, has the obligation to know how did they come to being first, lest they go cocky and utter nonsense about it all around .

  15. Left bottom side of my keyboard ... on Will Touch Screens Kill the Keyboard? · · Score: 1

    this is where i orientate my hands. apparently, unconsciously. so i discovered. its an a4 tech keyboard model that i have been using for years. (while renewing the model by purchasing the exact same model when the other one broke). i just found out that, the same model keyboard, but a slightly different (square instead of round edges) casing could throw my orientation and hence typing speed off. the very same model keyboard. i also tried other keyboards, but physical height of keys, their spacing, their placement, seems to have settled quite a lot with me.

    so, no. touchscreens wont be able to do that. because, hands are physical stuff, and if you dont want to look at the keyboard while typing, you will have to keep on feeling what is under your hand. and that requires physicality.
