Proving me wrong is illegal; so, my theory stands, for all my life.

No, it's not. I don't have to take any active steps; all I have to do is to outlive you.

I am theoretically immortal, how would you outlive me as a mortal?

If I (or anyone else) did outlive you, would that not disprove your assertion of being "theoretically immortal?"

In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice, but in practice there is.

It would; but that's just theory, and empirical evidence still suggests otherwise.

Theoretical and pratical aproaches are theoretically the same but on the praxis...

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Based on the models I must be utterly immortal.
Never tried it in praxis; that would be arrogant.

Mobilize.Net announced a new automated conversion tool that helps migrate legacy ASP.NET Web Forms applications created with the old Windows-only .NET Framework to the new cross-platform ASP.NET Core framework. Is it called "File > New Project"?

A new study explores the common recent trend of Zoom Fatigue and suggests some ways to avoid exhaustion from a day of videoconferencing It's all that zooming around, duh!

Quote: Everyone is staring at you ... all the time
99% of the time my camera is off.
Quote: The distraction of video
99 % of the time I've got the zoom window minimized.
Quote: You're so good looking ...
Can't see myself if my camera is off!
Quote: A highway-hypnotic semi-attentive fugue
and...
Quote: He figured one of the strengths of audio-only communication was how it enabled people to enter a fugue-like state where they wandered around doing other minor tasks while talking.
Exactly. I often do calls on my phone so I can clean the litterbox, do the dishes, cook something, etc.
Seems to me like people ought to get smarter about their video conferencing calls -- we'd have less of these silly studies, by places like Stanford, no less. Must have been an undergrad project,

I would love too... but have a big reception problem at home.
Additionally it is not that easy to "join" the meetings if not in company net or vpn, so I end attending the meeting using the laptop and the usb speakers.
But camera is off 99% of the time too. I only connect it when body language is important for the moment, i.e. I have an important talk with my boss or something similar and only if the other person / people uses the camera too.
