  It’s not according to quantum physics we observe

  I don’t think my wording implies that the will is sitting on top of those processes, but rather that it’s an emergent property of them. You’re the one who’s implying a false dichotomy - just because our choices might be influenced by prior causes doesn’t mean we don’t have agency. I’m asking what makes you think our actions are predetermined, not what makes you think we have some kind of magical free will that defies causality. Can you actually address the question I asked, rather than nitpicking my phrasing?

  I am curious to hear why you insist it’s inevitable. What intrinsic properties of the universe make you believe that we don’t have any choice and all our actions are set in stone?

  I want chocolate, I don’t eat chocolate, exercise of free will.

  By your logic no alcoholic could possible stop drinking and become sober.

  In my humble opinion, free will does not mean we are free of internal and external motivators, it means that we are free to either give in to them or go against.

  Common theory l, that I have heard is that if business owns their office space then it’s value is inherently tied to profit margins. If office goes unused, value will drop, which affect bottom line, which affects boards willingness to pay out large CEO bonuses. So getting employees back into the office becomes vital for the leadership.

  Been paying for years now, got a 50% price hike. Canceled on the spot. I like the creators,I follow, but recommendations have sacked for me for several months now anyway.

  Any advice for streaming add free on Chromecast or Samsung tv?
