    This is a common technique for lucid dreaming:

    Others included:

    Jumping: you may stay afloat

    Checking the window: view/weather may change

    Tapping, pushing the wall: you may fall trough.

    These work because the “dream simulation” does not expect such intentional behaviours and therefore does not put energy in simulating them coherently.

    Once you train your body to check automatically you may attempt them in a dream that won’t be able to respond coherently and wakes your conscious.

    A fair warning though, i have heard that for experienced lucid dreamers the dreams can adapt to simulate a coherent response to these behaviours, at which point you lose your ability to tell you are in a dream. Combined with the movie trope phenomenon of dreaming that you wake up this can lead to you being unsure even when awake.

    As a consequence of me posting my comment, you replied with yours. Are you establishing an involuntary hierarchy by replying? It was me who consented to reading it and responding to it with the full knowledge that as a consequence you will drive this discussion further.

    The anarchist principles i choose to follow allow me to accept that other people can choose to not be anarchists.

    I am not going to demand that people stop creating involuntary hierarchy because doing so itself would be establishing an involuntary hierarchy.

    I chose to belief that with enough time and education eventually all people wil come to realise the communal benefit of a modern anarchist society and chose to become anarchists themselves from their own will.

    I also accept that even people who are anarchists can be fickle, especially at certain moments and commit to actions which go against their own principles. So is the case with all human life, i have never met a person who never acts hypocritically to their own ideals. I accept this reality.

    That building such further will take longer then i have decades left to live Is but a sad detail that does nothing to change this.

    I was speaking more general but for that action specifically it seems to the consequences are for some other anarchists to call you an edgdlord and for the mainstream non anarchists crowd to not take you seriously.

    They are free to choose wether they care about those.

    I mean, you can do whatever you want.

    Part of Anarchy is understanding and accepting that that is a true for all individual life regardless of any laws or guideline.

    Consequences come after actions and do not stop committing to an action.

    But the more important part is taking this knowledge and asking ourselves, how can we deal with this fact and build a society that respects it while maintaining order?


  • If we accept that the act of living is inherently a destructive action by our consumption of natural resources.

    Then design production chains that try to meet local demand while transparently measuring and minimising actual loss.

    We can open stores like this who in an early stage are for select groups like elderly and disabled. The total loss is just a reference number similar to national debt.

    Using digital communications polling to measure actual demand to project production needs becomes simplified because potential clients don’t have to choose how to spend a limited currency.

    As those production chains and new standards for how to measure loss expand so can we expand clients to include the people who work in such industries and eventually everyone.

    Crucial is we don’t need an overnight revolution. This system can get its roots By co existing within current capitalism with the calculated loss simply measured as a financial debt.

    The biggest hurdle is legalizing an industry that basically gets a blank free debt card that can be spend on input resources, while making sure they maintain transparent calculations and dedication to minimize planetary loss.

    Did you play it on last gen consoles that did not receive many of the updates?

    I am curious to know what bugs you encountered, no game of this size is perfect but its gotten to a point that is more stable then skyrim ever was.

    The one issue I recall having when i tried 2.0 was clipping trough terrain but this was apparently caused by the eye adaption mod. Removing it fixed that.



  • The tradeoff for me is that i get unreasonably upset when ads are plastered in my face.

    There are minor parts of my commute that I learned to walk with my eyes closed just to not have to see them, other parts where i only look in the “tranquil” direction.

    I will stop watching or leave the site if i cannot block or instantly skip on less then 1 second. Whatever content beyond it isn’t worth the psycho-assault.

    The internet has become incredibly small for me over the years and its deeply saddening.

    I don’t believe so, if you understood my piglin analogy they are all bastards by design because thats how the system is build, but that doesn’t make them all explicitly enemies. Progressive left cops do exists. Cops that believe they can improve the system also exist.

    The difference is that we know the system is fundamentally broken and that their actions in the end only aid the fascist momentum. Ignorance is not the same as evil.

    Agree with sentiment but this seems like a less great idea.

    Actual fascist departments aren’t going to hire a queer person to make a queer police car, these where the ones most likely to be reformable.

    Compare it with Minecraft piglings, none are truly friendly, brutes will kill you and any may randomly start attacking you unless your appearance is specific (wearing gold) but when you are walking near a piglins that is being passive, don’t be the one to start hitting.

    In retrospect it is for pride month and temporary so was probably gone already before they noticed.


  • This was so normal that the knights almost anticipated being able to survive.

    This massively backfired in for example the battle of the golden spurs between the french heavy cavalry and (now Belgium) peasants.

    The French thought they where going to have an easy win, when this turned out not to be, many french knights trow their sword away to surrender, expecting etiquette where the farmers imprison them for ransom.

    The farmers though had no intention to respecting this and the knights where promptly killed sending a clear message to french rule.
