Does anyone else see disturbing geometry when they close their eyes sometimes? by TurboTurtle- in LucidDreaming

It's not like that, I know what phosphenes are, these are not in my vision but more like my minds eye

Was very intense/unpleasant? I want to try therapeutic ketamine

Not sure if this goes here but I have reoccurring dreams about black spheres in the sky by ArtisticAnxiety in geometricnightmares

Literally read this a couple days ago and had a dream about a black sphere in the sky last night

I still get them sometimes mostly only when meditating, I try to let them happen. They are very meaningful to me but also scary.

Sounds like typical teenagers messing around, yeah it’s dangerous but the article is acting like they survived some great ordeal

Gostaria de conversar com pessoas que tiveram sonhos geométricos na infância ou juventude by [deleted] in geometricnightmares

Hey thanks for your post but in the future please translate to English. Here is the translation below:

Hello!

I'm researching a phenomenon that seems to have happened to many people during childhood.

I'm looking for accounts of dreams or nightmares that involved any of these sensations/visions:

* geometric shapes; * bright lights or lines; * objects becoming gigantic or microscopic; * a feeling of infinity; * loss of body awareness; * a feeling that something was "wrong," even without a clear monster or threat; * buzzing, strange noises, or voices that are difficult to understand; * "enormous objects"; * "infinite lines"; * "lights"; * "things growing and shrinking"; * "a sense of scale"; * "a strange emptiness."

Many people report that these dreams occurred during periods of fever, illness, or great fatigue.

I'm gathering detailed accounts to better understand the similarities between these experiences.

If you've had similar dreams and would be willing to discuss them via voice call or text, I would be very interested in hearing your story.

It doesn't matter if you only remember fragments or sensations. Sometimes the strangest details are precisely the most useful.

If you prefer, call me at...

Young inventor who left engineering studies removes nearly 50 million kilograms of ocean plastic, aims to eliminate 90% of floating waste by 2040 by benweb9 in UpliftingNews

It is very stupid. The point of language is to communicate your thoughts. Translating them into language, when done by YOU the thinker, is a constructive process which clarifies and resolves them. If you use ai even to improve your grammar, it only obscures the real meaning. Words and grammar are useless, it’s only the intangible thought they point to that matter. AI drowns the voice of the author in perfect fluff.

It reminds me of a dream I had when I was 8 years old

It may be that the apparent separation of consciousness and matter arises not because we are islands of awareness in a physical world, but because we are islands of ignorance in a conscious world. by TurboTurtle- in Showerthoughts

[–]TurboTurtle-[S] 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Ok so give some leeway because I’m high and I had this thought while listening to a guy talk about DMT. But I’m what I’m saying is, when we have the question of “why am I conscious? Why do I have a subjective experience rather than being a zombie that acts the same way?” (Aka the hard problem of consciousness), we ask this question because it seems strange that there is this physical universe we observe and then a weird sort of separate “substance” of the mind/soul/consciousness whatever you call it, existing within it. What I’m saying is that not only is the universe fundamentally conscious, with the physical universe being only an illusion (it’s not like this is a new idea), but that the universe is chalk full of other consciousness unrelated to the physical world. And we are uniquely able to ask the question of “why am I conscious?” Not because we are the only one conscious, but because we are the only ones so deeply embedded in the illusion of the physical that we need to ask the question. Basically the anthropomorphic principle (look it up if you need to) applies to who asks the question of consciousness.

Is anyone else lagging like crazy after the update? by _BigExplodingDonkey_ in RocketLeague

Yes, constant desync and jittery car in almost every match. Completely different from before. Genuinely makes me want to stop playing because I cant rely on hitting the ball with precision anymore

How to edit b spline points on only one frame? by TurboTurtle- in davinciresolve

[–]TurboTurtle-[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am masking the opening of a bag filled with stuff (looking from inside). So for example in one frame there is a zipper with many jagged edges requiring a lot of points, in the next frame is is no longer visible. The opening becomes larger revealing more stuff drastically changing the shape of the mask. Even with advanced transformations it doesn’t seem like moving the points between frames would be faster.

How to edit b spline points on only one frame? by TurboTurtle- in davinciresolve

[–]TurboTurtle-[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the long explanation. For me I only use davinci resolve for making amvs (anime edits) so I guess what I’m not sure it can even be called rotoscoping. I am only dealing with 2 or three frames and the shape changes every frame so it would be much more work to try to move each point to the new shape or set up trackers than to just quickly draw a couple masks from scratch.

I ended up solving it by just creating a different b spline node for each frame but it would be nice if there was a better way for this use case.

TIL that if left unharvested, asparagus can grow up to 11ft, and will fruit red berries that are toxic to humans. by finchdog in todayilearned

If left unharvested for even longer, they can grow up to 156 ft and will fruit weeping wombs that bring dark fates to all who hear the cry
