    Note(s) from the speakers

    Colton: At 42:32 my reference to 8 thousand pixels was intended as a reference to 8K, which is in fact about 33 million pixels. On a smartphone the human eye arguably cannot see much more than this. On a larger screen however, this number of pixels would be more distinguishable than on a smartphone.

          • #4 - Free Speech: The Greatest Freedom?
            In this episode of The Future of Thought we discuss the primacy of free speech.
            Note(s) from the podcasters
            *Caelan does not believe sexuality is only a choice but rather it sounded as such due to mixing “sexuality” with gender expression (discounting gender dysphoria) early in the podcast; He simply views it as an expression of one’s self that is deserving of scrutiny.
            The audio is slightly different than usual due to our remote recording during the COVID-19 Pandemic.
            Discord notifications are audible throughout the episode; this should be fixed for the next episode.

            Corrections(Many due to rush caused by sound capture crashing and halting of travel due to coronavirus):

            • As of the time of scheduling our upload, the true number of confirmed US cases is over 120,000 and Global cases is over 700,000 but our message remains the same: balance is important.
            • 6:58: At the time of scheduling our upload, the President of the United States has stated a goal of allowing gatherings again by Easter; he hopes to remove some intra-state travel restrictions by this time. “The pendulum” Colton describes appears to have since swung back, as it were.
            • * - Since the time of scheduling this upload, President Trump has retracted his aim of gathering my Easter, and has extended Federal urgency of social distancing until April 30th, seemingly swinging the “pendulum” back the other direction.
            • 17:11: *Antibody* test(not “antibody” test)
            • 23:00: *Excerpts out of a book of which I read a few chapters (Caelan hadn’t read the whole book (Understanding the Politics of Pandemic Scares))
            • 23:36: *Days
