I wonder if the fact that human civilization has lasted and flourished for so long is just a stroke of luck then.....

But the self-interest argument falls apart when you look at it from a cost/benefit standpoint.

I agree, and this is a much better way to define "self interest" too.

 

An argument can be made that all actions people take are for their own self-interest. Even things like helping the community is done for reciprocal benefits for yourself plus the general increase in respect.

Another point is that if all people just act for their own self-interest, they will have a better life themselves, and if everyone does the same, some sort of proper balance will be achieved.

I have been having some occasional discussions with my friends over this. I personally disagree, but would love to hear what others have to say. Feel free to discuss!

I mean not exactly, vim is just one part of it when your whole OS is the IDE.

I agree, I won't argue against their usefulness. I just meant disabling them for myself personally. I used to tend to judge posts and comments from their upvote/downvote scores rather than their actual content, now I can see them for what they are, in my eyes. I found that pretty cool and refreshing.

Hmm ok, I crossposted it to there

It's freeing in a way, I don't have to do any extra processing in my head, and can just see the posts and comments for what they are. You should try it too!

It's more that I wanted to remind others. I was thinking of posting this in the "YouShouldKnow" community at first, but I figured that it wouldn't fit there.

I’ll have to figure out where to do that

If you are using something like a third-party client (may be an Android/IOS app that you use to access lemmy), it depends on the app.

If you use lemmy from a website, i.e the official https://lemm.ee/ site, you can navigate to your settings and disable it, just click on the settings button:

then scroll down and find these:

Edit: I see you've found it, Welcome to lemmy!

In the middle I was thinking "Woah, 4 MJ/m^3? That's nearly the same as water!"

You got me, xD

 

I couldn't search for it either. Is this intentional?
