Since this is “no stupid questions”, I will follow up with a question and demand that you not call me stupid: what about the lamp makes it “not food grade”? I assume that both salts are just NaCl, so do salt manufacturers put the salt through some process to remove dangerous contaminants or something?
I would never choose to be reborn as myself with my current knowledge. I would know how my life could turn out without knowing all the steps I did to get there. I don’t think I would be able to get my wife to fall in love with me and I know that I would never be able to find the exact breeder that sold me my dog.
As much as I would love to imagine how much better my life will be if I made the right decision at some juncture, I would not want to lose out on all the treasure I discovered taking the wrong road.
Sure I would be able to see loved ones who have passed, but would I be able to enjoy that extra time knowing that they will soon develop a disease that will kill them?
I love using my phone speaker. I do not always have headphones in my ears. I know some people can walk around all day with an earbud in their head, but I am not one of them. When I am messing around on my phone and decide I need to watch a video that includes audio, I can just turn up my speaker and listen. At home only, mind you. I would have to be totally devoid of empathy to blast loud audio in public.
