I’m not interested in what the dictionary says or a textbook definition I’m interested in your personal distinction between the two ideas. How do you decide to put an idea in one category versus the other? I’m not interested in the abstract concepts like ‘objective truth’ I want to know how it works in real life for you.
We just choose who to believe, I don’t KNOW how computers work, I’ve just chosen to believe it’s thinking sand and not some kind of ghosts/magic, I don’t even have told our any other means to test it, I mean why we even trust those IT guys in the age of internet, when the access to knowledge is abundant it’s weird there’s no conspiracy theories about that, like we see now in all others domains, bunch of armchair specialists sitting in their parents basements knowing better than specialists about medicine, climate, earth shape and everything
Technology is magic. I know how to operate a lot of it, but I have no idea of the inner workings. I’m poking my fingers on a lighted piece of glass with liquid inside to type this message… And that works because some wizards a thousand miles away are using angry rocks to boil water to make domesticated lightning.
The veil lifts to easily and I hate it.
