One of the most fascinating books I've read is David Chalmers' "Constructing the World", which is based on his 2010 John Locke lectures at Oxford.
In "Constructing the World" Chalmers addresses "many issues in epistemology, the philosophy of language and mind, epistemology, philosophy of science, and metaphilosophy."
I've read the book and listened to the podcasts many times over. Highly recommended to those interested in #philosophy

My profile picture is a #photograph of mine, or rather, it is based on a photograph of mine, made using a so-called "tiny planet" or "little planet" technique in #Photoshop, involving the use of the Polar Coordinates filter.
Here are some of my "Tiny Planet" pictures on #Flickr.
Can a good mobile phone camera be used for serious landscape #photography - yes.

Nerd as I am, I've been looking forward to the new World of Warcraft expansion Dragonflight.
Decided that perhaps this would be the right time to upgrade my venerable ~10 yo gaming PC (I use Macs for everything else), so I bought a Lenovo Legion T5 R7, 16GB, NVIDIA 3060 Ti LHR 8GB GDDR6.
Holy carp! What a difference! 😮
Rather unsurprisingly, CounterSocial has experienced a considerable influx of new Cosonauts today, and there has been a hiccup or two to the service.
I've subscribed to Pro, to pitch in a little bit, but I'm going to make a small extra donation to help keep things going.
I'm sure that the cost of maintaining CoSo isn't exactly peanuts, and this is a rather unique place with great potential. So -- #donatetoCoSo
Thank dog it's Friday! Will be heading to the #Finnish #Archipelago within the hour, for a relaxing weekend.
Have a great weekend, CoSonauts!
I'm a huge 'Berlin School' genre electronic music fan.
Tangerine Dream was, in my opinion, the greatest of the genre.
For me, Tangerine Dream ended towards the late '80s. Those who exploit the name today are but an embarrassing simulacrum of what originally was.
Anyway, this is one from Tangerine Dream's prime.
'Church Theme', from the movie 'Flashpoint'.
Put your headphones on, close your eyes, and be transported.
Sci-fi and fantasy nerds would do well to subscribe to Quinn's Ideas on YouTube.
Terrific content!
Haven't seen the movie, but "What We Do in the Shadows" (TV series) is hilarious and bloody (quite literally) brilliant!

Daft Punk's soundtrack to the underappreciated #TRON Legacy is nothing short of brilliant. It is like a science-fiction story in and of itself.
Close your eyes and feel it. /See/ it.
Very much looking forward to four weeks of vacation starting tomorrow.
Solitude in the #Finnish #Archipelago.
Time to read and to relax.
