maybe for one second you can pause; try to step into another person's perspective, and understand that a watermelon is cursing me



dreams would have to be more real than waking life in order for waking life to be taking place inside a dream though.

Ghosts might actually be real but only in the sense that some quantum technobabble thing about a fragment of your last conscious mindstate state gets stuck in a loop outside your dead meat body tied to god knows what and fucks with other people's quantum consciousness states for a bit until entropy does it's thing and breaks it up enough to gently caress off.

Quantum technobabble! It's good for sci-fi and metaphysics!

Hopefully there's a Steam discussion thread going on when I get out of this game because I have some questions about the nerfs my character took around age 9.

Now 40 years later we have photorealistic 3D simulations with millions of people playing simultaneously and it's getting better every year. And soon we'll have virtual reality, augmented reality, if you assume any rate of improvement at all, the games will become indistinguishable from reality.

Sounds like this Elon guy is a guy who knows a lot of stuff and definitely knows how things work, and has seen & interacted w/ the things he is talking about, and isn't just being the millionaire version of Idea Guy.

Not sure why you posted this, but I am frankly disturbed by it, and have come to realize this simulation is basically Pregnant Princess Baby Birth mixed with Surgery Simulator.

There's a theory that the reason everyone alive has a bunch of weird stories about surviving impossible things is because when ur about to die ur consciousness jumps into a universe where ur not gonna die

Like when I was 8 I got thrown head first off my bike and miraculously didn't even crack my head open, or that time I got hit by a person running a stop sign and they missed me by like 1 inch or when I fell off a porch etc

Or maybe the Luck stat is just powerful

My dude I’ve always thought about this after a very bizarre dream when I was on a plane years ago ha glad I’m not the only one who thought of this idea

I seem to be alone in this, but for me mushrooms are way more intense than LSD, in a way. Acid makes everything feel significant and alien but I've always been able to "maintain" even on the most intense trip. Never gotten paranoid, and I've been doing acid for 24 years (oh my god I'm old)

There have been a couple mushroom trips where I got some weird rear end interference. Like one time, tripping with my gf and another girl we knew, they went outside to smoke cigarettes and I stayed in because it was cold and I was convinced they were witches who were planning something really bad for me.

Turns out the only thing they were planning was a 3some :haw:

Shrooms make me see mad crazy geometry when I close my eyes.

I don't think that follows really. The simulation thing is just "we could be in one, and we would never know or be able to verify in any way".

It changes nothing about how you live your life. It's just kind of a neat thought experiment, but you can't do anything with it.

Fair, I worded it somewhat poorly.

I have only ever met super proto nerds that believe the simulation thing and they're always avid atheists that are sure that god can't be real which is what I find to be a funny disconnect of something essentially the same, religion was a poor choice of words as it encompasses a lot more than just an all powerful deity.

never tried LSD but the mushrooms when i did a lot were suuuuper trippy, ive also had acid and 2cb have no effect on me, probably because i was so tired or did too much of something else :confused:
