I'm assuming that by materialism, you mean the material plane, or the objective. I really cannot understand an atheist who is not bound to feel that the greatest form of evidence is evidence provided in the objective, or via empirical research and data. Moreover, the real issue that I have with you...

maybe i'm just tired and hungry but burst duration*damage_hp* average reload frequency / average reload frequency *(wind up + wind down + cooldown) + reload_duration + burst duration shouldn't that just cancel out? No. If it were only being multiplied in the denominator (frequency*(windup, etc)), i...

So uh, can I help or am I under-qualified?

Hello, I think the objective/subjective dichotomy is too abstract, since people are involved in all our decisions, including delineating categories like 'truth' and 'falsehood,' and because our views develop in context, rather than on our own as pure 'subjects.' Right. Your first sentence is what w...

In that case they would both agree that there is some objective morality out there - think analogously to mathematics, even before we discovered basic numeracy, it was still true that 1+1=2, the same applies to ethics, even before we realise the nuances of it, some people think that objectively mur...

Objective Morality is just the name of the idea that there is a moral code that exists even when there is no one left to believe in this moral code. And in that sense, that moral code is as objective, real, and true as 1+1=2. Even when there's no one left, it will still hold true. Should the Atheis...

The objective morality for atheists debate is actually this contentious topic amongst philosophy majors in colleges worldwide, and basically it revolves around the conundrum that: a) The idea of an objective morality is usually attributed to Judeo-Christian religions(Christianity, Judaism, Islam, e...

By the way, what is the equation for ranged dps? It's been bugging me that I couldn't get it right.

Yeah, this kind of reads like a fitness/pop-culture magazine. Hey, I like philosophy though, so I shall ask this to the board: How do you rationally collaborate the existence of an objective morality as an atheist or agnostic? Do you mean decide on what is the correct version of moral values or just...

Well, I didn't have much to do after new year, so I thought I'd make a 'nid codex page and LA page for fun. I didn't make the tyranid weapon page for obvious reasons, and the regular units (besides the hormagaunts) don't link to anything, but it's something. :P http://i.imgur.com/JI3GhBM.png http://...

I think so. I finished an intro coding course recently that was mostly HTML, and I've been learning it outside of class for a few weeks now. Not proficient, obviously, but I can understand it well enough and I'm getting better. I've done a little bit of coding in python and arduino for labs, as well...

I'm not sure if anyone is doing this at the moment, although there are three races in the Codex that aren't even click-able. It would help everyone to have the stats up there, I think, and maybe people would stop misquoting stats in balance discussions. :lol: I will have a lot of free time in the up...

On the 14th, right? I'd be able to help. Right after finals week, so I have nothing going on.

Yeah, pretty much all racing games.
