"I have an alcohol problem"
"Have you tried turning it off and on again?"
maybe this is why we hit devices when they stop working. it's an instinct from the future
As someone who has utterly useless prophetic dreams I like to call it information backflow. Also for context to what I mean by useless I mean shit like watching a car get dragged out of a ditch, novel situations that are utterly mundane. It's either that or like me hitting my nuts while playing EUV.
i think i once had a dream(?) about my friend telling me about the plot of Madagascar 3, no details but the overall theme and general events. i later asked that friend if she remembered that happening, and she told me she never did that. so i'm guessing it was a dream?
truly extraordinarily useful information, not "hey kid invest in bitcoin" (it was in like 2008, right after the release of Madagascar 2) not "did you know, all those feeling you're feeling is gender dysphoria? you're trans" not even a "when you grow up you'll be lactose intolerant, it'll take you years to connect the fatigue to the fact you had too much diary that day" but the plot of Madagascar 3. my brain looked into the future, and the only thing worth knowing was that
Turns out the gift of prophecy is utterly mundane and largely useless. I do have some things that I think are amongst said dreams but given the general vibe of that type of shit I'm gonna keep quiet lest I undo their truths. Though I actually fucking hate the implications of them because it means I have some level of positive fame and I do not want that.
Thats sort of what's being done with ayauasca and other psychedelic drugs. Like a medication hammer that knocks you silly and resets your brain.
DMT is short, like 20 minutes tops, and won't make you physically sick. I actually like it during shrooms the best. If you try it, make sure you're lying down.
From what I understand of ayahuasca they throw all kinds of shit in there from psychoactives to others. I've never tried it. So be careful. It will make you physically sick and it lasts a long time.
They did use electro shock therapy and even lobotomy for a while. Didn't quite have the desired effect.
Were there any side effects of the electroshock therapy? I didn't even know that was still legal/happening! How are you now?
I think this was a discworld joke. Retro phrenology or something.
I think this is more like percussive maintenance
Percussive maintenance is really just short, fast, and localized instances of turning it off and on again.
Making Fonzie an early IT guy.
Wish it worked on my ADHD, I want to try deep brain electrical stimulation thing see if it helps
