Why do English-speaking people still call the Inuits "Eskimos"?
Why are you unable to answer questions put to you, problems with the cognitive side of the brain?

@great-big-stees saidSeeing someone in my "minds eye" is a way for me to identify someone without physically seeing them.
But the mind does have an eye so it can see you…right?π€

the answer -
side note, boring, but necessary -
the umlaut normally placed above the (e) causes all sorts of computer generated garbage because an umlaut means something entirely different to a computer and a human being
except in the title and answer fields, because of course that's been figured out and as a lowly human you do not get excellence
but you may continue yer disillusion that we humans are the masters of our domain

@great-big-stees saidIt's very difficult to pin down and define what exactly a mind is. But the fact we are even talking about this seems to belie the notion we are simply physical objects performing functions. If so then something like empathy becomes irrelevant, and abuses are simply a fact of life.
But the mind does have an eye so it can see you…right?π€
I've never been able to convince myself this is all there is to it... that our existence is nothing more than actions and reactions and performing functions. This is what insects do, and it's highly unlikely they stop what they are doing to reflect on their lives and wonder over their own existence.
@very-rusty saidI'm very selective in who I will pick on and argue with. And I think we BOTH know who who I WILL pick away at. So it's not so much about what I see in you as it is what I don't see. You're not a bad egg.
Just for the hell of it, what do see in me? π

@torunn saidMostly the old folks, the younger bunch do everything on their cards. Now if there is a power outage they can't get a thing in the community they are in unless one has cash. I always keep emergency Cash on hand and use it for Coffee and my better half latte or what every she may be having on that day. That is besides the Emergency Cash. π
Cash? Do people use it these days?

@very-rusty saidWe can transfer money through the bank on our mobile, and that is what people expect, they don't want 'ready money'.

@torunn saidOh I have the cards if I need to use them too! π Do you know there are places will not accept cash which is legal tender? I don't know how they get away with it.
