also, trump is related to Everquest now?

srsly, am i going insane? 😛

my point on that tho... was that you cant prove there's no difference .. and cant prove it means anything

basically... race IQ = God

cant prove it exists .. or that it has any meaning

well you can prove it, if the averages are repeatedly around the same value with like a value smaller than say 5 on IQ scale, you can prove that on average there is no difference

and also cant prove it doesnt exist

i like to say this,

when a black man with a 200IQ comes into your buisness and asks you for a job, and you dont hire him cause of his race's average IQ, your polly arrent asian

and now im off to bed for reals

I wouldn't care, what matters is if he's qualified for the job really 😛 a person with an IQ of 300 but gender studies, isn't going to fly an airplane for me

supposedly IQs over 170 are not measured

anythin over 170 = 170

tbh id hire xer anyway, always good to keep some smarties aroujnd

well IQ is relative to the current average

if 100,000 people took the test and all answered correctly in minimal time, their level of intelligence becomes the new IQ of 100

for that test

and yeah they set a limit i believe

but its like, a person of modern time taking an IQ test of say 1930's will most likely score very high, due to the average of that time being lower

i dunno... some people say todays tests in schools are easier

well thats possible too

the point is that the 100 value of IQ changes to suit the average

so if society dumbs down, the 100 is still the average, and the smart people score far better

Today's episode of "The Further Red-pilling of Tim"

woah... my stocks are up a lot today... what happened in the FTSE? its up like.. 100points

well, i know Trump pulled out of the Iran deal, and it caused oil prices to surge

I think we have a rate decision tomorrow

oh thats weird... USoil/crude didnt really go up that much.... but UKoil/brent shot up

it hit like $77 today up from $70 earlier this week

oh you were talking about US

ah yeah I was looking on different timescales... but it shot down quite a lot yesterday too... then back up

it just means US companies will have some incentive to meet demand

our fuel in 1991 cost £0.47 and oil was the same price as it was in early 2016... and fuel cost £1.38/litre then

still around £1.28/litre

we'

we're at $2.50 a gallon here

yeah US has never really paid much for fuel

the divide has lessened a little tho

well we get the benefit of our refineries

we used to only pay ten times as much 😛

haha yeah

you're still near $5.00 / gal though

yeah thatcher decided to sell all our oil

so 2x

Holy fucking shit

oh, new ruler in malaysia ...

unexpected?

It was to me

I kept my expectations low as fuck

and I was rewarded.

isnt that guy like 92 years old?

isnt the vice president of syria ... like.. i think shes eighty-something

things i learned today, syria has a vice president

so what does that mean? what type of leader are they?

Dr M? The plan was that he was gonna step down in 2 months when anwar's jail sentence ends

Hes also pretty corrupt. But so far, people say he seems regretful.

Problem is, most of our leaders have been corrupt as fuck.

well good luck with him, im going to bed, cya guys around

name 1 leader that isn't corrupt as fuck 😛

Anwar is like our bernie sanders with less socialism

neat https://twitter.com/qikipedia/status/994290912384638977?s=20

nailed it

Says alot when the only dirt they could come up with was a sodomy charge that to this day, seems trumped up

what is "the intellectual dark web"?

weird that all these videos on youtube got taken down for just talking about guns.... then a music video comes out with a guy straight up shooting someone on a head ... and is fully monetised

even gets on trending

Almost as if the media only wants one perspective of gun owners out there

They want to keep people thinking that all Gun owners are conservative hicks/

So they get rid of the most reasonable voices

Whooo shit, I also am gonna be preparing for the next few days.

We might see riots. That happened before

Just read up on the conversation that happened. Think I have to side with @>Cytos, de lieve goede synth

Our bodies are built off of our DNA, that includes our brains.

If you accept that natural selection is environmental, you have to accept that that applies to our various traits.

I'd say that there IS natural talent, and there IS learned skill.

Some people have higher pain tolerances, some people have better immune systems, some people have higher capacity for pattern recognition.

The combinations form semi-randomly

But they're picked, naturally, from those that survive, and most of all those that thrive.

all of which are highly affected by environment, and how you were raised

Right.

Highly effected

but note solely dependent on.

We're not born a pure tabula rasa.

I need to get a drink.. someone watch the live stream and catch me up when I get back 😛

There's a lot less genetic fatalism than people tend to make it seem.

I mean, sure, if you inherit a genetic disorder, that might play in

if you mean some people have a much better starting off point in certain senses, yes. But while that might be genetic, so is our ability to adapt.

But genetically speaking, someone can carry a recessive trait (or a combination of traits) that would lead to a higher IQ

That's also something that can account for potential differences between twins, per se.

starting off is what helps our ability to stay alive until adulthood, the ability to adapt is what keeps us alive as long as possible

Adaption isn't an absolutely native instinct for us.

its not an instinct, its an ability.

hit your arm in the same place every day, the bone in that area grows stronger. rip your muscle tissue over and over and grows back stronger.

Not true.

If you tear a hamstring, the scar tissue can cause you to be more likely to tear a hamstring again.

hamstring is not a muscle

it is a ligament.

when you lift weights, you are actually ripping up your muscles.

"In human anatomy, a hamstring is one of the three posterior thigh muscles in between the hip and the knee."

whad i miss on the live stream?

okay, well thats not exactly what i meant by tearing muscles
