  1. My new dishwasher is the dishwasher of Theseus. (ETA: new as in "new to me." Not new from the store.)

    I'm not even kidding.

    The lock was busted. So they replaced the lock.

    Now the drain pump is burned out. So they are going to replace it.

    They are also going to replace the control board while they are at it.

    So will this dishwasher be the same dishwasher as when I got the apartment, or will it be different?

    A philosophical question for the ages.

  5. @SnowyCA it's all about the continuity! I'm theoretically drinking a refreshing multi-years-old tea, gaining the wisdom of the ancients.

  10. Es sind auch noch ein paar Originalteile an Theseus Fahrrad. #ShipOfTheseus

    Wenn man schon über Identität diskutieren will, dann doch über die Frage, ob dieses Rad noch das ist, das ich im Februar 2013 neu gekauft habe, oder längst ein anderes. 🤔

  19. Have my Macbook Pro back... it is now recovered from its Apple and Mango juice issue that afflicted the keyboard. However it seems that every part has been replaced apart from the lid. It is my laptop #triggersbroom #shipoftheseus

  20. Sometime this spring Quasimodough turned 5 (Yes, he's a #Covid baby). He's as bubbly as ever and still makes happy bread... although, like the #ShipOfTheseus, there's not much left of his original components.

  24. I've got an often-patched work shirt that I like, but need to repair some more. I plan to keep patching it as long as it fits.

    I'm thinking I should get one of those "Vern" style embroidered service-station name patches for it but with the name "Theseus".

    It's one of those things people might see go by in public then maybe get it 30 min later and laugh. lol

    Bucky Fuller had an elegant solution to the #ShipOfTheseus paradox:

    Take a rope made of three braided segments, one hemp, one silk, one nylon. Tie a loose slipknot near one end. It is a knot, we can agree? And it is made of hemp.

    Slide the knot, it's still a knot, slide further, it is now made of silk! But isn't it the knot you tied? Go further, YOUR knot persists, now of nylon.

    In this reality Nouns are pattern integrities through which rush quantum exchanges at an alarming rate ☺️
