Perhaps. Though it's entirely conceivable that the cost of revealing said supernatural proof would be detrimental to their life in such a way that no use of a $1,000,000 would justify it. Or, ala Mr. Manhattan, they have lost their empathy and/or worldly concern. Or they could just be massive dicks who could make $1,000,000 easier if their secret is kept, like Hayden Christensen in Jumper.

So I stand by my point that only looking at James Randi's $1,000,000 prize as proof that "there are no supernatural claims that can be proven" is an example of sampling bias.

Assuming the correctness of a hypothesis without sufficiently disproving potentially valid alternatives is how we wound up with the acceptance of the supernatural. It's just bad epistemology.

Regardless, I believe that James Randi's offer, combined with the lack of any other provable and sufficiently documented supernatural occurrences means it's more than reasonable to not hold any belief in the supernatural. I certainly don't myself.

ETA: 3. I suppose a third possibility is they were unable/unwilling to travel or were entirely unaware of said prize. Something like a "hermetic monk" for example.

Let me preface this by saying I tend to go with the Null hypothesis until proven otherwise, and as such don't believe in the unproven supernatural.

Regardless, there are two ways to interpret James Randi never getting proof.

1. There are no provable supernatural claims.
2. Those who could prove a supernatural claim have no use for some reason a $1,000,000 prize would not be sufficiently enticing.

Same. Which is crazy, cuz I spend my time arguing with Tankies on Lemmy.

Awww... Give yourself a little credit! If you were born the successor of an slave employing Emerald Mine fortune, you could fail your way up too!

So uh... Where are your mega millions then champ???

No apologies needed, if you missed it, plenty of others probably did too. Poe's law and all that. And frankly I fully agree with your point.

Lol, thanks. Next time I'll drop a /s

But maybe you could still pretend I am a strong man every once in a while anyway? As a treat?
no... oh... okay...

Borderlands 2, in the mission "Kill Yourself"

I say we push them harder, hard enough that they mandate single person unisex bathrooms, with the fancy auto room washing function they have in Japan. Then I can finally crap in peace.

God damn, this is like reverse Poe's Law. I thought for sure your first post was sarcasm.

Taxes?

I'm gonna level with you, I didn't think that far into this...

I dunno if "remembering" something is so strong an act as to imply an opinion, positive or negative.

Thing is, this is at the dollar store, and you can only buy one item per transaction.

The Old Adventures of the New Horizons

So I always imagine it a bit like this.

Imagine you are playing the SIMS, lo and behold you are your own SIM. But the objective in the corner doesn't specify money, it specifies well-being and happiness.

Your SIM is only programmed to take care of their base necessities, but those will only get your well-being and happiness bars up about 20%.

What do you do to fill them up the rest of the way? Mind you, some ways to fill the bars will be counterintuitive, like exercise, or learning a new skill. Though it needn't be those specifically.

And to make it harder, there is a diminishing return even on things that work, so you have to be sure to add variety, just a little, to keep the bars going up.

The most important thing, is you need to genuinely want what's best for yourself. Not what's most comfortable, but what's best. There is no answer anyone can give you to what that best something is, you have to answer that for yourself.

And if all of this seems like stupid bullshit to you, well this is just my own opinion, to which I make no claim has it's origin in the mind of greatness.

Is there anything more magical than the kindness of a stranger?

And we are very sorry...

What did Colorado ever do to deserve this?

1, Revision OS is awesome, and good on you for sharing it!
2, I don't think that's you disagreeing really, just offering a "third path".
