  1. Past hour
  2. I agree that scarcity mindset plays a role. But I think my question is a bit deeper than that. I’m not asking how to become less desperate because I believe I can get the experience again. I’m asking how someone realizes they don’t need the experience in order to be whole in the first place. In other words, what changes so that the experience is enjoyed if it happens, but no longer feels psychologically necessary?
  3. Already addressed above. What do you have of him that you think is credible enough to make a conclusion? I read about him on Wikipedia. His work is mostly classified as pseudo-science. It's the biggest factor. Without technology, you wouldn't have possibly known that the tornado occurred at all. All the other pieces of information are completely meaningless without that specific knowledge. Even if you believe in precognition, and even if everyone around you believes in your precognition, you will not possibly have any chance to prove your insight without technology. Of course, the point here is not to appreciate technology, but to dismantle the silly reasoning that ignores the elephant in the room. The law of truly large numbers is not an unfalsifiable hypothesis. It's actually more in alignment with reality than your precious precognition. The law of truly large numbers says that everything is possible with enough time and attempts. Things vary in likelihood of occurrence, but nothing is impossibly unlikely like you suggested. When unlikely things happen, the law doesn't panic, because it's already accounted for it. It just doesn't give it the meaning or importance that you want. 🙄🤷‍♂️
  4. What does DPDR mean? I function as an ego of course I do, but the difference is I know it’s not my ego, I know no one owns or controls my ego, my ego is simply everything functioning as an ego. That’s all.
  5. You should sit down to pee
  6. It means complete detachment from the body. The body is moving without a sense of self or a self.
  7. What do you mean when you say that the you here are currently not depersonalised?
  8. All this AI stuff just shows how over-dignified programmers are in today's economy, if most of them up to this moment have been doing stuff that can be done by a mindless machine. What do you get the money for? Almost as bad as MDs.
  9. Well for me it was complete and total DPDR. J realized that this disorder is essentially enlightenment but without the enlightenment. If you know what I mean. And then after a week or so I started fading back into the ego state. And I could start functioning again. Being me.

    No, you cut it exactly at the point women are criticized in any way whatsoever. Stop the cap lmao
  11. Help me understand. I'm stupid.
  12. As for the thread title. I agree. From the perspective of myself here, there’s nothing else is happening. I only experience reality from here. From the perspective of someone else’s I, there’s nothing else happening, there’s only the experience of reality from the I there. I understand that the I is just another word for awareness which is unlocalised everywhere at once, and yet is localised in the knowing. Of course there’s going to be I’s in this writing, how else is it going to make sense to the reader. The I is the story of selfing.
  13. Lots of i's in that statement. I'm not disputing this - that you had an awakening or a realization that the self does not exist. And now it is permanently gone. What i was saying is that you are currently not depersonalized. There is still a sense of self there for you. You just said "I don't read a lot of posts" you wouldn't even be able to do that properly if suffering from depersonalization. And this is actually what occurs on awakening. So please explain your awakening to no self, what it was like and if you had any other awakenings. I would truly be interested in hearing the whole story.
  14. Yes, you don't understand what its saying there
  15. I often speak loosely on this forum because this is not a techncial paper. I meant the later. I didn't change it, I just stated it more precisely. Not of course. A human can. Humans don't need 10 million examples to learn a point. AI does. A human teen can learn to drive from 20 hours of data. An AI still cannot drive after 10 billion hours of driving data. This isn't just a matter of degree, this is a difference in kind.
  16. Here's the AI summary from the first Google search of the exact term: Common sense is the basic, practical judgment and everyday reasoning that people use to navigate life safely and efficiently. It relies on fundamental cause-and-effect understanding and social awareness rather than specialized training. It is the foundation of sound decision-making in daily situations.
  17. That's not what common sense means, it means lacking information. Common sense is the information that every random person on the street knows, it does not mean rationality, it's just lack of expert knowledge, lack. Suggesting someone is not using common sense is literaly saying they're being mentally retarded, common sense means the type of sense making that is common.
  18. My man, I am not a native English speaker, but, uh... Insufficient examples means exactly there are no examples in its training data. And it struggles a lot because it can't think, it defaults to repeating patterns reinforced during the learning phase. That you put it into its context, you need some special curated version of the rules, while a human can read the documentation version every other human reads and process it, learn it. Then if you get for example Fable and give it those snippets, it WON'T perform at the level it does in other languages. Because it doesn't have that many solved examples of problems to pattern-match. There's no thinking. Even if you do social science, it can't come up with a good idea every paragraph when writing long-form texts, because it doesn't think. It can give a good idea if you ask it for ideas, then you have to trim 6 or 7 bad ones using your own intelligence. The only time it produces a good essay Is when I basically create the whole outline and then put the insights, all the important info into the paragraphs, and just ask the AI to process it into a fully finished, flowing prose. But still, I am the one doing the thinking, AI is like a stupid assistant who happens to know English and various formatting standards (or coding languages) really well, who can organise your thoughts. If you give it too much of its own agency it defaults to boring, useless slop, the longer it processes something.
  19. Consistency is the keyword here. Credibility is created through consistency. The matching dream is a rare, one-off occurrence in a lifetime, if at all. While other waking people's reports are consistent every single time. That's why your dream is not credible and other waking people's perceptions are. If you could find a way to extend the matching dreams beyond rare singular occurrences, then maybe you'd have a chance at gathering consensus.
  20. We cut it at the point where it is toxic masculinity. There is much in common between a Nazi and a non-Nazi, like eating breakfast and wearing shoes.

    Funny thing is, most of you guys would agree with majority of repill talking points when it comes to improving yourself as a man, and in fact some of you keep spewing it tirelessly in here, I'm not gonna drop names we all know which people I'm refering to. Where you guys cut it is at the point at which criticizing of women, and women's behaviour starts. All of you are basically redpill lite

  22. What is some music you like?

  23. @Butters Haha neat!
  24. No semantics or word games, there literally are no one observing Hawaii right now. They are all NPC's. For Hawaii to exist The Self has to observe it. NPC's don't have 'bubbles' of their own because they don't exist. I illustrated NPC's bubbles earlier with the 'Earth' photo because it's useful as a model. This is where AI shows it materialistic/realism view. AI doesn't know fully that a personal subjective observation is also what breaks down the wave function. It seems more aware of this when it comes to the Nobel prize proof that the universe is non-local: AI: Realism (what you believe), an objective world independent of observation, has proven to be false. I understand and have empathy to your view. Other people's pain are not real because they don't exist. I understand this can be worrying. What I share is meant for mature, advanced minds because the wisdom can be greatly misused.

  25. Low sex drive

    Girzo replied to MarkKol's topic in Dating, Sexuality, Relationships, Family

    It's also dependent on the lifestyle, I think. If one were to party all the time and spend time around pretty girls, they would be hornier than just sitting at home. It's hard to get horny reading Ralston's books, way easier when you are out. So it's a kind of self-perpetuating pattern of behaviour, I feel.
  26. I’ve only just come to read this thread for the first time, so have not been aware of the discussion. I switched off notifications arriving in my email, so I have no awareness of what’s being discussed on this forum unless I intentionally choose to read a thread. I don’t read many threads and definitely not all of them. Just the ones I am particularly interested in, which is not many tbh. I can confirm that my sense of separate self has fallen away permanently. And is why I am able to fully comprehend Jim’s message without any struggle or confusion. Best regards.
