I see! That’s a great point! Thank you!

Not sure if this is the right place for questioning philosophical theories, but I have a few questions about this one.

• The sentence is “I think, therefore I am”. What if we don’t think? Let’s imagine, for example, that there is a god or gods, that are the only beings capable of thinking, and that everyone just recieves those thoughts from the god(s), just gets them delivered right to the brain. In that situation, we wouldn’t be capable of thinking, would we? (iirc this was one of the main critics to Descartes’s chain of to thought. In this situation, I think the sentence could be generalised to remain valid.)
• The sentence is “I think, therefore I am” (or if we generalise it to remain valid due to the previous point, “if something thinks, it exists”). Why can’t it be “I eat therefore I am”, or “I breathe, therefore I am”? What makes thinking more valid than any other action we can do when trying to prove our existence? How is thinking capable of proving our existence at all if nothing else is said to be capable? In fact, what shows that thinking can prove someone’s existence? (this one feels like a reworded common critic, although I’m not sure)

I would like to invite anyone to comment/evaluate/counter/correct what I wrote here (just pls don’t attack me (>~<), attack the content instead). I know I could just research these things on my own, but I have a bit of trouble understanding the formal language that is used by specialists when discussing this type of problems, and I find it likely that others feel the same, so it felt cooler to talk about it here.

P.S.: it’s kinda sad that this theory doesn’t quite prove the existence of our brainrot homies :3

I tried accessing the website, but I only got the text “Access denied FE”. Does it work for anyone else? Could it not be accessible where I am? (I’m outside the US.) Or did I arrive too late to the party?

There’s already Fedivision, where any person with a Fediverse account can participate. Lemmyvision seems to be more about each community presenting their song, and the concept of communities doesn’t exist in most fedi platforms, so ig it makes sense to make it a Lemmy-only thing.

Litterally this. I won’t (and most people won’t) feel morally wrong once I stop paying for Disney’s content.

For anyone wondering:

1. There was a plugin on Unity Store that acted a bridge between Unity and libVLC, which allowed developers to make video players inside the game engine. As the post says, it got removed.
2. This plugin isn’t made by VideoLAN, it’s made by a company named Videolabs that includes several people who supposedly have contributed a lot on VLC and FFMPEG.
3. The Videolan team made a blog post about this, if you want to know more: https://mfkl.github.io/2024/01/10/unity-double-oss-standards.html
