    I have massive time dilation when I have dreams. I can have what feels like an 8 hour+ dream in a 30 minute nap. Also if I go back to sleep right away I can rejoin the last dream.

          Mere The Matrix movie influence. Do you see code running along the walls in game glitches? No? Because simulating that is stupid (just like rendering the sea waves on the whole map in Crysis 2, because of a deal with Nvidia). And our reality is made of atoms anyway.

          Are any of those people software developers? I’m curious what kind of code it is. I hope it’s not JavaScript.

          I took DMT once and it’s in my top ten worst experiences I ever had. Didn’t have a laser with me and even if I had I would’ve be unable to use it.

          However, I also had a common DMT experience: The “dial in” tone. I don’t know why it’s called like that, it has nothing to do with modem sounds. It’s just a really loud high pitched beep that distorts at the end.

            If reality was spackled together with js and PHP, it would explain quite a few things

              My dislike for PHP is close to my dislike of JavaScript. As far as I know (don’t correct me if I’m wrong, I’d better not know) PHP doesn’t have such an insane community that reinvents every wheel in JS and builds the worst dependency hell one could imagine. Everything else is yanky as hell though.

            There is a really interesting experiment there, right? I guess we have all watched or heard of Matrix, wondered what if everything is a simulation, and seen code somewhere. What if you take a guy from some backwater place who has never seen any code, give the poor guy DMT and shine a laser at a wall? Is it a thing we imagine because the brain is wired that way? Or because we are culturally primed to imagine this? A guy who has never driven a car probably won’t have that classic “car with no/broken brakes” dream either, right? .

      I’ve had dreams that took place over years. An entire alternate lifetime in one of them. Always very disorienting to wake up from one of those.

        I I completely understand, my dreams are so real. I can smell, feel the breeze, etc. Sometimes when I wake up I have to look around and remind myself I’m in bed and its a dream.

        Sometimes thats awesome, other times its a horror story. The last one was a mixed bag…

          I remember waking up after a lifetime-long dream, seeing my partner asleep beside me, and hugged her so hard she woke up and got mad at me. Didn’t care, in my mind I hadn’t seen her in decades.

            Thats terrifying, amazing, and so sweet I have the I and II diabeetus!

            Did you ever explain to your partner what happened?

              Right after, and then she hugged me back just as hard. Though perhaps a bit concerned as she’s never had a dream like that.
