Not sure what to take from this really. Completely useless feedback from my perspective.

> You really thought she doesn't already have a patreon? lol
Did see her shilling it in the description, so I assumed she didn't. Not going to use that much time on this.
> $400 a month or something
Or $800, which actually is pretty close to self sufficiency.
> She never quit her phd 'for youtube' [...]
I know.
> She would have been a primary-school teacher in the previous reality but now here we in cyberpunk so i dunno. In my experience this type of girl will enter something like Bureau of Statistics to do some 'data analysis' role i.e. a step or so above data-entry
Sounds accurate.

Self-actualization is striving for things that is not mentioned lower in the hierarchy. I think achievement often is dependent on self-actualization even though Maslow doesn't think so, at least in fields where higher factulties is used exhaustively, such as science, mathematics or the arts. I think you're right that she's striving for external validation (that would be "Esteem" according to Maslow) amongst other things, which is not the right mindset for making youtube videos. I do not agree with Maslow that you always have to fulfill the lower steps to climb up, but I think the concept of self-actualization has something to it.

Is sex really a basic human need?

once your have the fundamentals of your life down there are further options that you can take to perhaps improve further with supplementation, (b12, creatine, and low piracetam doses)

but its kinda like Maslows Heiarchy of Needs... you need to take care of all of the fundamentals first then you can move forwards in improvement.

Sup /sci/

I'm studying power engineering and having difficulties choosing a topic for my bachelor thesis. The topics my university offers are very boring.

I know /sci/ probably isn't the best place to turn to, but maybe you can give some ideas to look into. I'm open to engineering and economic subjects regarding producing, using and storing energy.

Maslows hierarchy
Most people need to fulfill all of the hierarchy to avoid depression.

Then I'll give a longer version of it.

Basic human desires are innate, and overwhelmingly genetic. We enjoy pleasure, and hate pain. We want food, water, shelter, a sense of physical security, social acceptance and belonging, a sense of being valuable, etc. Pic related, even if you don't take the hierarchy literally.

Cultures vary wildly in their *beliefs* of what people should be and do, the roles they take, etc. But that does NOT change the underlying fundamental desires, or what methods do or do not actually meet them, regardless of what the culture claims will work.

What is the point of life? And why is advancing evolution more desirable? I am seriously asking this question btw. Prove deductively why anyone ought to try and gain this knowledge compared to just living/enjoying the life they were given.

You can fulfill all of maslow's hierarchy of needs by living off the land like this.
