  1. "How are you feeling?" "What are you thinking?" "Can you describe your thoughts?" "Do you know where you are?" "Do you know what you've been thinking about?" Doesn't seem like torture, more like an honest attempt to understand what he's going through. The purpose was research, right?

  2. How did we get from peace, love and understanding to war, hate and censorship?

  3. Annual animal testing in U.S. is 71k monkeys, 61k dogs, 19k cats and at least 11 million rats and mice.

  5. Seems very one-sided. Every paragraph end with arabs being the villains.

  6. I feel a mix of fascination, anxiety and humor. What a strange environment.

  7. What an incredibly articulate and sharp woman!

  8. The power of supply and demand.

  9. It is a hardening experience which can help bring focus on what's essential, I guess, but I can't help but feel that it is also infantilizing in the sense that you're taught to obey and not question. Pros and cons.

  10. We just need to better distinguish between improvement and change. Improvement does not mean to simply reject the old and try the new. This might as well lead us backwards. Improvement involves preserving what works well and replacing what doesn't. Change for change's sake is destructive.

  11. He was pretty accurate about the future. The main thing he missed is that the information about the users would not so much be utilized by the users themselves, instead utilized by corporations and governments to manipulate them.

  12. "An unprovoked invasion" "An attack against the rules-based world order" "Ukrainians has shown unexpected courage and patriotism" "The European community has shown unprecedented unity in their support" etc.

  13. Wait, is it called doughnut because it vaguely resembles a nut, as in bolt and nut? Mind blown!

  15. @Danny Horworth They're symptoms of rampant poor taste I'm afraid.

  19. Terrible how these people are exploited. What's keeping hospitals from hiring more doctors to avoid overwork like this? Is it about cost? I'm sure most doctors would accept a lower salary to get more time for sleep and life.

  20. Great to see you stand up for the free word/press and remind us all about why state censor is a very bad idea. We live in strange times.

  21. Wholesome video. Some say you don't need to invent the wheel again, but it sure is more fun that way.

  22. People who work for themselves rarely long for retirement.

  25. Hi, this is AT&T, would you like AT&T? I already have AT&T, that's what I'm talking on right now with you! Well, ah... would you... do you want some more? - Louis C.K.

  27. It is unfathomable how the perhaps greatest and most productive mind of all time still reserved part of his attention for gossip.

  28. I want that book!

  29. That was so meditating. Some great poetry by the narrator.

  30. I don't think anyone comes home to some great years after battle. It's probably taken him a lot of work to find himself again after that.

  31. I think this clip is from a Finnish TV ad for heart medication Aspirin Cardio.

  32. Maybe, for example, because they will have to study longer, take on more debt and work for more years than previous generations in order to afford an equivalent standard of living, and their hands are pretty much tied because they're propagandized by legacy media and surveilled by social media to the benefit of a corrupt state.

  33. I can't say I've deeply confronted my mortality, but the way I see it now is that it is inevitable and something I cannot control, so why worry. I'm sure I will still worry though on the day I'm forced to confess that death is closer than I hoped.

  34. They are also not limited to the US, meaning workers and consumers may live in different parts of the globe.

  36. This is so interesting!

  37. It is ironic that men who took pride in their daring individualism sought themselves in magazines which molded them into a uniform group.

  38. Nowadays most Americans don't even know what's up. It's too much to keep up with, and media keeps them misinformed.

  39. 1:51 Nuke flattens city above bunker. Reaction: shrugs, sucks on cigar and casually continues playing poker.

  40. If a full life comes at the cost of the lives of others, then I'm perfectly happy with a piece of it at half speed.

  41. This video made a very important point: that every nation thought they were the good guys. Now, how do you feel about your own? Would you defend it? The hard truth is that most wars are fought for very different reasons than soldiers are told, for the gains of very few.

  42. His words are still true, but surely racism was worse back then.

  43. Weird hats and the beautiful women that wore them.

  45. So he predicted that computers will replace human labour in repetitive tasks, allowing us to support a maintained or improved standard of living while putting in less hours. Well, here we are, working more hours while feeling less happy and more worried about our future.

  47. To say prefrontal cortex is "missing" is a bit extreme. The risk analysis is a bit flawed though. The reason he feels pressure is because his prefrontal cortex is working. If it wasn't, he'd just act without hesitation.

  48. Interesting, but I'm not so sure individualism is what caused the fracture, because the cracks seem to run between groups, identities, affiliations, etc.

  49. This hit me bad: "...on the other hand I have this perennial fear of Jane Goodall's theory, that the old alpha ape is up there somewhere in our brain. We need enemies. If we don't have one, we invent one. Is America gonna become a third world policeman, intervene in numerous boarder wars in order to protect our ideology from perceived threats, or are we going to become more like Japan, Switzerland or Sweden, that through its past experiences of suffering and pain will accept other ideologies and ways of life and go about its business? My kids are going to face that war."
