You should conform and play Smash 64 too
Believe me, I tried. I can't play with the controls though, so I end up looking like I never played video games before when i play it.
Determinism implies predictably if you have sufficient knowledge.
I don't see how there could possibly be a causal relationship between my genetics, my upbringing, Star King's post, and me snapping my fingers. Seems more like something that I randomly chose to do.
Actually it's more like a combination of all those things plus near infinite other factors. Obviously there's some things with a larger effect then others, but the set of actions is so large that just using the major factors doesn't hold any predictive force. On the other hand, in cases where options are fewer, it becomes possible to make predictions, take for example, playing fighting games like well... this game.
Not having at least weak determinism violates causality.
FYI blended vegetables are not NEARLY as healthy as normal vegetables.
Basically for health it's
raw>>>cooked>>>>>>>>blended
blended is still probably healthier than most foods though I guess
Random nutrition tip since I'm taking nutrition in school right now: If you're going to eat something high in carbohydrates, eat a bunch of (raw) coarse vegetables with it to slow down your digestion. This will prevent your blood sugar from spiking.
Random tip #2: POTATOES ARE NOT A VEGETABLE. THEY ARE A STARCH.
Well that's a little deceptive because that doesn't take into account the other benefits provided with cooking, namely getting rid of microbes and the like, though it will always reduce the pre-existing nutritional benefits.
Not like that's generally an issue for store-bought food, but my love of wilderness survival led me to bring that up (long story short, you end up scavenging, sear the mother****er, otherwise avoid cooking your catches too much otherwise you lose valuable nutrients).
