@PurpleTree Can't expect competence from drug enforcement's PR writers. They are public servants with college degree in some administrative bullshit, not drug nerds.

@The Crocodile Consider you are deluded. Usually I would have blocked such an obnoxious user as you, but somehow I have a feeling that you are just a teenager who needs some patience and beating with a stick on head. If you are an old ass and I am wasting my time, then tell me and let me block you.

@The Crocodile I don't want your instruction. If you want to bring some value then post a report of your work. It would be very interesting read to see your experiments, the stuff you have actually done, like how much have you sat and the results of your explorations of the wacky-consciousness phenomena. The babble you post there is of interest to no-one. Really? Do you think you are going to invite anyone to seriously take up on exploring the limits of consciousness with such word salads? You are not serious.

LSD, I guess?

@The Crocodile You don't get one very important thing. You are the person who will not awaken by following Campbell. You are not the person who oobed the shit out and "discovered" stuff for themselves. You just follow hearsay, believe it and then preach it to us there like some lunatic Christian. Look at the structure of what you say. It's one to one to the guys who come there to preach that "Jesus Christ is needed for Enlightnment." "You are scared of death because you don't understand how Jesus has brought salvation." "It's all explained, just read this scripture", etc. You are playing the same ego game as them, neither helping anyone nor progressing in your own journey.

I don't use this method. I use RemNote app on Mac OS.

Beware, choose the right file system for the stick! You need to check which filesystem works for every single OS and format your stick to that.

That's what Terminal or Windows PowerShell are for. The operating system IS the overarching software, one just needs to know how to use it, be a so-called poweruser.

Can you personally? Nope, it's a big jump from predicting a number on a chalkboard and then constructing a grand narrative of how after-life works. Empirically the only thing you and I have is his rambling. That's not scientific proof.

Unskillfully. His whole argument depends on accepting that his out of body experiences work like he imagines them to do. He has basically no argument, he just wants you to believe oobe is not his own fantasy, personal dream. Believing random shit is bad epistemology. If he seriously questioned that he might be stuck up in his own imaginations, fantasies, then that would be worthwhile to listen to. But it's the opposite, he does everything to dodge serious contemplation, just shares his Dungeons & Dragons-like narratives.

@Leo Gura I guess they mean the LSA-containing seeds. Authorities in every country love to give inflated numbers straight from between their buttocks. If it's morning glory seeds then it's only 0.06% LSA, which would need to be gruesomely isolated and only then converted. When they talk about liquid you also can't know if they are talking about liquid with readymade LSD diffused in it, or a half-product in a process of extracting LSA.

@Space Pretty sure, I also am. You have to be a hardcore fan to buy something like a video course, and his best-seller book has been released a long time ago, right now they are having problems with even filling the workshops.

@Leo Gura I believe the bots suggested rating is more like 1700 in a 10 minutes rapid game or 3+2 blitz and not a few hours long games like you are playing.

The biggest benefit to chess would be learning how to learn, as you have a very clear feedback in the form of your ELO ranking of how fast you are progressing. You could make a plan on how to gain the most ranking points in some time period and see what it takes to become good at something. With other hobbies, like Yoga, while they might be more beneficial for your life, you lack that quality, instant feedback. Feedback is king.

I am not sure, a lot of technical information is never published as PDF, so they couldn't have leeched it from the internet. Elsevier has scripts of science books that they published and printed that OpenAI and the like have never ever seen. It is a substantial limit in the time frame Integral proposes. Infrastructure doesn't appear out of thin air.
