"The blue light, the chairs we sit in, the food we eat." No joke I'm sitting one-foot away from a 30" screen, in a shitty chair, eating a plate of shrimp alfredo. Fuck me mate.
I estimate that we are roughly 10 years away from ppl having a screen permanently fixed in front of their faces in some form or another. Most likely starting with smart glasses.
@@Yourunkbob have you ever heard of the show called “Black Mirror”? There’s an episode that reminds me a lot of this comment. Actually more than one episode lol.
Lmao there was a show few days ago with a guy talking about physical fitness. Never understood reason for being a copy boo, repeating shit just for 22 likes lmao "2 kettlebells talking" I believe it was put!
Officer: Sir, why is there a naked minority boy in the front seat of your vehicle? Dahmer: Oh uh, that's my bi-racial son Tyrone, he's 18, officer, I swear. Officer: Oh alright. You got an id for you and the boy? Dahmer: Yes. Officer: It says here that the boy is aged 14 and from Wuhan, China. Perp: He's of legal tender age here in Alabams sir. Officer: Indeed it is. Well, i'll let you off with a warning for failing to stop at a red light. You enjoy the rest of your night with the young boy. Dahmer: I'm going to eat him whole, officer.
The reason why aliens are typically depicted as small framed and frail with huge dilated eyes may not be as farfetched as we think. The more technologically or psychically advanced a species becomes, hypothetically, it would make sense the physical frame becomes less and less sturdy.
Absolutely makes sense. Tell that to an arrogant and greedy human. Those people think we are the absolute supreme organisms the universe has ever seen. Stay open minded my friends......
That reminds me of that song from the '60s. I don't know who made it but the name of it was, in the year 25/25. Something like that. That song always creeped me out when I was a kid. And now it seems to be coming true.
You know what I love about Joe, it’s this, he falls bs when he hears it. “Our feet were designed for shoes” Actually people who walk barefoot their feet adapt to the terrain. Unlike people who wear shoes develop deformities that cause pain. It was funny as hell the way he did that. Love it!
That is a great thing about Joe, one of the less great things about him is how much BS floats right by him without so much as a passing acknowledgement.
i think he means that because we have been wearing shoes for a long time our feet have started to form to the shoes, which is a bad thing. i think joe would agree with this
If you think that shoes can't have impacted human evolution when we've been wearing them for tens of thousands of years, you're showing that you're a bit out of your depth in this conversation.
"We don't worry about anything, we got rid of all of our worries." speak for yourself champ, people are more stressed and uncertain than they have ever been. "Wolves" are a singular, physical threat that can be dealt with swiftly. I'd rather deal with wolves, bears or an enemy tribe than any of my modern "non worries".
No. All you're doing is trading complexity for simplicity. That's all. Fighting an enemy tribe is far less productive than collaboration to cure a disease or prevent an asteroid from wiping out humanity. You can simply join a martial arts school if you want fight. Trust me, an hour of that 2-3 times a week and you'll feel like the world is a less stressful place.
The one thing that changed my diet the most, was learning that digestion takes an enormous amount of energy. I see digestion as a task that competes with the rest of me for stamina, and that's forced me to budget digesting time better. You don't want to keep that machine running all day.
a long time ago there was some early hominid telling his pals, "These sharp sticks are making us weak, we should be hunting with our nails and teeth lest the other hominid group across the savannah out compete our toughness."
@@ES1976-3 He wasn't wrong. Memories were probably better before writing due to necessity. For example, not of us remember how to spell because everything we use has spell check. It's no longer necessary in most cases.
Learn to cook, use only whole ingredients for food never anything premade or processed, learn to love moving, outdoors and nature… That’s 90% of it right there.
"We were keeping our eye on 1984. When the year came and the prophecy didn't, thoughtful Americans sang softly in praise of themselves. The roots of liberal democracy had held. Wherever else the terror had happened, we, at least, had not been visited by Orwellian nightmares. "But we had forgotten that alongside Orwell's dark vision, there was another - slightly older, slightly less well known, equally chilling: Aldous Huxley's Brave New World. Contrary to common belief even among the educated, Huxley and Orwell did not prophesy the same thing. Orwell warns that we will be overcome by an externally imposed oppression. But in Huxley's vision, no Big Brother is required to deprive people of their autonomy, maturity and history. As he saw it, people will come to love their oppression, to adore the technologies that undo their capacities to think. "What Orwell feared were those who would ban books. What Huxley feared was that there would be no reason to ban a book, for there would be no one who wanted to read one. Orwell feared those who would deprive us of information. Huxley feared those who would give us so much that we would be reduced to passivity and egoism. Orwell feared that the truth would be concealed from us. Huxley feared the truth would be drowned in a sea of irrelevance. Orwell feared we would become a captive culture. Huxley feared we would become a trivial culture, preoccupied with some equivalent of the feelies, the orgy porgy, and the centrifugal bumblepuppy. As Huxley remarked in Brave New World Revisited, the civil libertarians and rationalists who are ever on the alert to oppose tyranny "failed to take into account man's almost infinite appetite for distractions." In 1984, Orwell added, people are controlled by inflicting pain. In Brave New World, they are controlled by inflicting pleasure. In short, Orwell feared that what we fear will ruin us. Huxley feared that what we desire will ruin us." From "Amusing Ourselves to Death" by Neil Postman.
Great book. Read it about 20 years ago so it isn’t fresh but I think most of his arguments detail the decline of our mental, social, political, etc. lives from amusement, distractions, complacency and laziness. Those arguments apply just as much to our physical wellbeing as well.
I always thought about this. Things like clothes are like hacking the game, how many things can we hack and how many times can we hack them before our “game” glitches?
Idk the stuff about intermittent fasting, few of the recent studies show that apart from reducing the calories it doesn’t have any other effect. So it doesn’t matter how many times you eat, it matters more how many calories you’re consuming
Has anyone ever considered life isnt meant to be hard? Imagine telling the cavemen we found a way to live effectively relaxed but we decided to make it hard on ourselves anyway 🤔 keep yourself in check, exercise regularly, but enjoy modern conveniences and inventions. It’s inevitable, the same we we use dryers now and laugh at people who can afford them but choose clothesline’s instead because “life isn’t meant to be easy.”
You have to challenge yourself to have a meaningful existence - the thing about modern conveniences is now we get to choose the challenges that push us forward in life. You're right, the mundane challenges we face in life should be made as easy as possible so we have more time to focus on the things that really matter to us.
@@MiguelGarcia-vj7oo my wife grew up spoiled in a sense. When winter was over in Jersey and my father caught you using the dryer sparks would fly from the smacks handed out. Plus I like the way clothes smell when you hang them out to dry, something very simple and euphoric about it. Makes me feel at Home you could say!
Even with a premium Spotify account I have to listen to between 3-5 ads at the beginning of a podcast, and then have the podcast interrupted an hour in with two more voice ads. Too many ads Joe. I understand the incentive to monetize things, but this is over the top.
I would for him to study me,I’m 38 on human books but I’m actually in my 20s in time laws rules ,it’s honestly frustrating when people don’t understand this.
I imagine the humans of the future to be a little like the superhuman-like people in Dune, where they relentlessly trained their bodies and minds to great lengths.
I have toes that spread apart widely like fingers. It was passed down from my Filipino ancestors who climbed the trees regularly to source food on the islands.
I moved out to a remote unworked ranch mostly for the peace, quiet and country when I was really just looking for a new rental home. Retired now except for freelance writing which is hardly physical and had concerns of sitting around too much. But holy hell, there's more physical challenges in simply daily life than I expected just maintaining the place or existing in winter. A late summer arrival had me throw in just a couple casual gardens that super produced and can start more with more open fallow cropland than for which I have capacity. Throw in tons of rattlesnakes and giant gopher snakes and that alone keeps up the blood pressure simply going out (sidearms required). 63 years old, underweight on arrival with eroding but mostly working hip. 7 months in and feeling stronger in all ways. Oh, plenty of jumpscares and simmering panic with matching limited resources to extreme expenses, running on fumes to the next gas, half-mile access roads across alfalfa fields just to get the dirt road leading to pavement making a joke of 4WDs but POINT is that it took a little extra effort each day for things I took for granted. Kids and people need challenge; embrace them as doing nothing is the only sure thing. Easy to say but also each white-knuckle horror becomes a grand adventure on the other end (depending on end price, of course but generally speaking). And must note the tools, relics and abandoned machinery from the 1880s to 1960a still packing barn, bunkhouse and fields that daily mock any compliant I might raise.
@@omkarki1516 Doesn't matter. He is wrong. For a foot to evolve to fit shoes, it would mean that those who couldn't fit their feet into shoes died at a higher rate than those who could fit their feet into shoes. Over time those with a foot shape that fits in shoes have more kids with shoe fitting feet and thus the shape of the human foot changes over time for the general population. So he is wrong because 1. shoes where made to fit feet, not the other way around. 2. Not having shoes or being able to fit in shoes will not decrease your life span or affect your ability to have children and pass on you shoe-free-foot genes.
@@motomusica What you just said makes no sense. Your body (including your feet!) is molded by your lifestyle. A persons feet after a lifetime of wearing shoes is deformed by shoe wearing and a person's feet after a lifetime of barefoot walking in the jungle is deformed by that lifestyle. But when both people have kids the Childs feet look the same. Even after 250 generations of wearing shoes or walking barefoot. Unless it confers an evolutionary advantage it is NOT evolution. You clearly don't understand how it works.
Does the skipping meals thing still work for people who have naturally fast metabolisms? When I do that I feel like I’m going to pass out or get hangry.
I had 2 cousins in Mexico. Very poor. They were always barefoot. Their toes were spread out. My dad would send their mom money, even let her live in our vacation home. But she would use it to get men and almost starve her kids. Really fucked up story. So we would send money for my cousins to go to school, shoes , school supplies, food etc. She would waste it all or hand it to her dudes. Really sad. But yeah their feet were like that
Viable only if you can get major corporations to shell out big bucks for employee mental health plans. JP has some interviews where he talks about how hard it is to convince corporations to actually spend money on that kind of stuff.
@@recreant359 well, you learn from experience as well. Good luck finding a psychiatrics that has no issues - that is usually why they chose the career to start with.
as someone who has always been a bigger guy I can 100% say eating one meal a day will do wonders for you I'm down around 50 pounds in 5 months. As long as you hydrate every day this is one of the best things you can do for yourself
This guy would be blown away by Wim Hof hahaha 10 minutes in the winter and your dead bro? I walked a good mile in -12 in a blizzard wearing nothing but a light jacket, shorts and a short sleeved shirt under!
It's simple go out and play !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Adults and children do not get out anymore like I did as a kid. I am 54 years old exercise 7 days a week and will not stop. Go ride your bike or walk or hike !!! I just got back from hiking ZION and BRYCE Canyon with 70 year olds and they were awesome people. They get it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Throughout history there have been many people and groups of people (slaves, poor, etc.) that have been cold and hungry for a prolonged period of time and whatever they did eat was organic, non-GMO, not processed etc. Obviously this was not by choice and there is no data to show that they lived a longer life. Today we are pitching the same lifestyle/diet to wealthy people claiming substantial health benefits, yet nobody addresses lack of benefit observed throughout history.
I work a tough job as an Arborist. I'm technically a large primate living back in the Trees. I burn an insane amount of calories a day. I'm in agreement for much of whats said but skipping Lunch would be counter productive to my health. I cant imagine the luxury of having that choice to eat less without issues.
I lived 3 years in the jungle and I'm talking about an area that you can go in by boat or by small airplane in Costa Rica and you can tell the difference of life style with locals, NO shoes no problem I feel like your feet get stronger by walking in sand and rocks this dudes no gym bad eating habits but yet climbing palm trees to get coconuts to add rum and having a 6 pack easy ! lol
I didn't need to study anything. I live in the same world. I've know for a long time that Convenience/ Easy/Comfort. We will do ANYTHING for these things. The issue is we are driven to innovate based on two simply things. Not even just Tech wise... Comfort and Fear We want to have things and be comfortable and easy. At the same token we do many things out of fear. We're motivated by ... What it feels like an Endless Cycle.
Can you build muscle on one meal per day, if that meal is eaten within an hour after working out and has sufficient nutrient content? Is there any reason why this couldn't happen?
