  1. Threatening your opponent with violence if they don't resign
  2. https://lichess.org/wWWZSaQ6/black Just got done playing a fun game against a friend, sacked a rook to get a positional advantage, which ended up paying off. Trapped the queen forcing him to make the moves I wanted. Engine-wise the whole thing is likely entirely inaccurate, but it matters not. This kind of style is where it's at. Integrating that stage Red boldness, believing I'll succeed without any basis, a lesson that can be learned from Trump. It may be cliché, but seeing failure as a learning opportunity is awesome, fear is replaced with excitement.
  3. Arguing on a forum about which techniques are proper is all a distraction, happening within consciousness
  4. It's part of what I'd call Tier 2 Awakening. I distinctly remember the first trip the shift occured, I actually could not believe such a complete awakening is even possible, and almost wrote it off as self-deception, but thankfully intuition helped me muster the courage to go back and verify. Everything prior has been prep work, kindergarten, a hike to the base camp, and now the real peak summiting has begun. I wish everyone could reach this point in their journey, my pitiful descriptions don't do it justice. I guess the main difference is how direct and unfiltered it is, no more sideshows of visuals and bodily sensations, nor obscuring parts that may be traumatizing.
  5. At a glance all of the main ones, some more extensively than others. There'll come a time to revisit each one almost from scratch and interconnect in new ways. But for the moment I'm largely done with the 'usual' of Truth, Love, Imagination, God. Focusing on Insanity, Chaos, and Meta, which are more like sub-attributes that you can go isolating endlessly.
  6. How to access Infinite Intelligence to win chess games
  7. I've been solving lots of Sudoku lately and found that it also improves my chess. The similarity in grid structure helps ln pattern recognition, particularly the rapid eye movements for quickly assessing the position. I've drastically reduced getting my pieces forked and other blunders. Getting burned by filling in a single wrong number and ending up redoing several of them later on has taught me to consider my moves more carefully and also check whether I can actually execute my preferred strategy before the opponent can prevent it, or I'll fall short and have to look for an alternative. Plus eliminating untenable continuations is basically the same principle in both. AlphaZero games have quickly become some of my favorite along with Nezhmetdinov, Tal, and Morphy. Good things can be learned from its play, such as prioritizing piece mobility over material advantage, suffocating the opponent's movement, and controlling long diagonals with adjacent bishops. After all, you need as few as 2 pieces for a checkmate, the rest are expendable. Next up is learning notation, which is a must for visualizing. I can calculate decently well, but quickly get lost without pointers like arrows, and have to start over.
  8. Hard to say, at this point weird is no longer in my vocabulary, it's just gradual increase in depth. The other day I was switching between avatars irrespective of location in space and time so seamlessly that it was one of the most amazing experiences ever. I guess the one that caught me the most off guard is when I miscalculated the dose and duration while on a train, and got to see the ego of everyone around clear as day. Illuminating but also unsettling and unpleasant, for all the structural complexity its contents in most cases are nasty and primitive. After 3 hours of that I still hadn't come down, had to stumble around the station avoiding coppers when we arrived, went outside to cool off for an hour and watched trees morphing beautifully in rainbow colors. Pretty nostalgic since I don't get visuals on trips anymore.
  9. Yes, between classes it's usually great. Two of the same class (tryptamine + tryptamine or even tryptamine + lysergamide) is pointless. Dissociatives go well with anything. LSD with 3-HO-PCP is my go-to these days, a guaranteed mindfuck trip, most can't handle it however. Something lighter such as DMXE/ket with one of the 4-subs is a fine alternative. It would be interesting to test a disso together with a psychedelic amph like MDMA, or do one of the DOx compounds with MK-801 for a 24hr+ trip. The only one I don't mix is O-PCE, it's in a league of its own.
  10. Mostly cause it's the same guy doing it for the 25th year in a row. The tradition goes a ways back to the USSR. In Murica there's a presidential address on Thanksgiving I believe, fairly similar. But of course in Putin's regime something as innocent as this has been turned into a subtle display of power.
  11. A balanced approach would be to buy YT Premium, but still use Revanced, as Premium doesn't let you get rid of Shorts and a myriad of other awful crap they put into the app with the purpose of stealing your attention away
  12. We still do, hearing him yap and then singing the anthem is quite nostalgic. That video reminded me of the ear cancer that is the common Russian accent.
  13. https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1TDRS2NdaEMWpCkklBA4Nu Some may be wrong, it was automated, but overall good enough, rest can be adjusted manually. Nobody should be getting ads on YT when ReVanced exists, even on iOS there are some similar options.
  14. Well, it's understandable why you feel that way, it's par for the course at some point in any serious spiritual journey. To ones such as us, who have lived through hundreds of years and experienced things beyond human comprehension, the chores, barbarity, and limitations of everyday life will seem unbearable at times. However, consider that from multiple perspectives. What's so unsatisfying about this existence, truly? Questioning the reasons deep enough will result in most of them falling apart. Indeed, it's a prison in many ways. Those pesky laws of physics, health troubles, limited cognitive capacity, and a myriad of other things. But I'd propose that planning and executing a prison break, working around all the preset conditions is more fun than hanging yourself in your cell, even if you ultimately don't succeed. So far, all that you are has been sourced from this reality, so attempting a permanent shift forcefully can result in unintended consequences, such as a state of consciousness even more limited and static. Plus, however long you got, no matter whether it's 40 years or several millennia, that's a laughably short span of time from a universal perspective, so it'll be over before you know it. Don't abandon those plans you have, simply postpone, they won't go anywhere. If you can reforge your perspective so completely that you'll see God in the pavement and idiocy, life will be awesome, but it's a challenging process to say the least. Also, try asking God for an appropriate challenge to occupy yourself. Imagine a game so difficult and confusing that grasping the basics of the rules takes several years, and then with tons of psychedelic trips, immense amount of academic knowledge, experiences in different parts of the world, and constant contemplation, you'll just barely figure it out by the time you kick the bucket at 90. Design that kind of puzzle together with God, then there can be no more room for complaints, you'll be too busy solving it like a maniac. And if you can't talk to God directly like that yet, that's something to work on. Lastly, the fact that you posted this here and in this section indicates that perhaps you aren't so dead set on going through with this as you may believe. So take additional time to reflect and I think you'll arrive at a solution.
  15. Not under the same conditions they're not, but give an AR-15 to an idiot and it won't be used effectively at all.
  16. That depends. In China not so long ago a student killed 8 and injured 17 in a stab attack. Columbine was 13 dead between 2 guys, and most school shootings don't cross 7 dead. Guns have the issue of immediately alerting everyone.
  17. That's the video you're thinking of You might be similar to me in this regard, one's reactions and actions during trips vary a lot. If the trip happens in the headspace, which is the best way, the more immediate danger is probably forgetting to breathe or swallowing your tongue than running around naked or falling out the window. Sometimes I'll live 10 lifetimes, then come back to find I haven't moved an inch from my initial position. Even if the content is horror, it's all experienced inside the mind, the physical world just becomes an unnecessary distraction. Once I had an NDE from harmala poisoning, did not move or panic. Still, you want to have some basic safety protocol in place. Water, trip killers nearby, maybe a bucket, nothing you can slip or tumble on, doors and windows locked, etc. Rest is context dependent. I'll lock away knives and stuff only when doing something like deliriants, for the others it's overkill.
  18. Fischer Random? That's weak True alien minds play infinite chess Who's up for that?
  19. There's also the opposite effect, thrashing around like an animal in the cage of your mind when you realize that's the only thing there is. Being 'somewhere' isn't quite the end of nonduality, more like a dissociative hole.
  20. They can be. Although mushrooms are generally more colorful and geometric. The video seems closer to what you get on some deliriants - loss of focus, sound amplification, wobbling, tracers. Visuals are just a sideshow, you can discard them for deeper headspace and more consciousness if you so wished.
  21. Are you intelligent enough to be that evil and avoid the consequences long term? That's an art in its own right. If not, that experiment would quickly be over, you wouldn't even have enough experience to contemplate while serving your prison term. There's precisely nothing wrong with it, it's a mode of being as valid as any other. But you can observe it others, not necessary to make it your lived experience. Then again the same can be said about observing love in Jesus, which is what Christians do... In reality you're already plenty evil, way more than you can or want to see, so it's probably a safe bet to pull in the opposite direction to get a balanced experience of life. I've surprised myself at how evil I am and especially was by making an honest list of bad and selfish deeds.
  22. Well he ain't wrong about that. The Devil is still an actor in God's play.
