I was watching the Japanese version of Cube, a cool movie. While watching I couldn't help but notice all the actors looked like Squid Gamers. So I asked ChatGPT this:

me:
in terms of genetic distance, koreans are to japanese as which european ethnicity is to which european ethnicity?

chatgpt:
In terms of genetic distance, Koreans and Japanese are very closely related — closer than most other East Asian ethnic groups. The relationship is comparable to some of the closest genetic relationships between major European ethnicities. A widely used analogy from genetic studies is:

Koreans are to Japanese as English are to Scots, or Germans are to Austrians.

These pairs show:

Close shared ancestry

Some historical intermixing

Still culturally and linguistically distinct

So genetically, the Korean-Japanese distance is roughly on par with intra-European neighbor distances — much smaller than, say, Spanish vs. Finnish or Greek vs. Norwegian.

Let me know if you want the exact numbers on genetic distance between East Asians or genetic clusters in Europe or a visual tree of human populations.

I don't know how to stop. I don't know how to stop coming here every day. I don't look at other boards much if at all, and I barely go onto other websites. There's something wrong with me.

basically
>it works like a slot machine
>but every time you refresh you get novel, variable content
>new things are more salient to the brain and cause a bigger neurochemical response
>some of the content is funny/interesting but most is shit
>this is important because, going back to slot machines, if you just had a lever that gave you the same amount of money every time you pulled it it wouldn't be addictive, you'd just pull it until you were satisfied
>the fact that you only actually find rewarding content a fraction of the time causes the brain to frontload the addictive response to the activity instead of the reward

tl;dr its a giant digital slot machine and its addictive and you should get off probably
