Welcome to the all-new Windows Central Forums! - We're still moving some things around, so you may see a few quirks here and there, but we're working on getting things fully completed as soon as possible. For now, take a look around, and if you run into any major issues, please let us know in this thread!
Hmmm ... interesting.
Remembering the old argument that things only exist if the mind manufactures it with a thought.
I've always thought of the global web as virtual, meaning it really doesn't exist so maybe it isn't a thing.
It does exist however because it makes us mad up to happy.
Is something only tangible if multiples of creatures can touch and feel it?
Do the experiences of a group of beings only exist because one mind created a thought about the group?
I have no direction to go here.
Weird stuff.
Great fodder for the enlightened intellectual crowd however.
Where am I?
Where am I? Good question.
Is the web is all thoughts? Or rather if the thoughts on the web are things. What are we?
Therefore if the web is true. Then it is also true that every human brain is connected to every human brain.
Weird stuff indeed
I have read recently that the reason the internet is so popular is because we as a species have always been connected.
We just weren't aware that we were.
When we speak or type to each other on the internet it seems natural and we become less aware of the distance between us.
This communication of course can be shared by many and we sort of get drawn in by the rockstar syndrome if we become an item.
For a certain few the global internet connection can also become a dangerous weapon to the mind if one is dismissed or tortured.
Based on the effects of an enhanced connection between individuals pure thought may just well be called a thing because it could possibly have some impact on others.
That is if others actually do exist outside and away from the keyboard I'm pounding on right now.
