I still think of that scene at least once a month and giggle!
kaklerbitmap@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Sorry out of the loop here - what’s this a scene from?
ScoffingLizard@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 weeks ago
I don’t know who needs to hear this, but people, please do not take psychedelics and put lasers near your eyes.
untorquer@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Emphasis on AND. Putting lasers near your eyes is a sober activity.
ScoffingLizard@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 weeks ago
This is true. Laser Doppler Vibrometry and Atomic Force Microscopy are two legitimate examples of using lasers near your eyes while sober.
Agent641@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
I’m sorry, I thought this was America!
frezik@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 weeks ago
Do not take psychedelic with remaining eye.
ameancow@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
laser light has this way of enhancing interference patterns as it spreads out, this is why it has weird looking patterns when projected in a wide angle.
This is also probably what the person in this post was seeing and tripping on, staring directly into a laser pointer while high as balls.
traceur402@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 weeks ago
It appears to be on some sort of apparatus that can make it draw a line, I wouldn’t be surprised if there’s some gimmick that makes it actually draw cryptic letters or something too
niktemadur@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Take psychedelics, why not, go for it.
Put lasers near your eyes, absolutely.
But never, EVER, take psychedelics
and ALWAYS put salt in your eyes!
pH3ra@lemmy.ml 2 weeks ago
I never needed the laser
crusa187@lemmy.ml 2 weeks ago
right?.. just a DMT vape huh?
pH3ra@lemmy.ml 2 weeks ago
I’m old dude, we didn’t have vapes: if you want to meet your higher self you had to use a bong or a pipe
Daft_ish@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 weeks ago
The dmt is do8ng the heavy lifting there.
mudstickmcgee@sh.itjust.works 2 weeks ago
I was just about to say😅 with enough dmt anything is a simulation. Lasers are just for aesthetics
icelimit@lemmy.ml 2 weeks ago
Does Dmt know something we don’t?
Daft_ish@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 weeks ago
Your body knows dmt should deployed at the time of death. Maybe its uploading you to the cloud.

Like the Kumail Nanjiani joke about a new drug called “cheese,” made by mixing Tylenol PM with heroin.
Corkyskog@sh.itjust.works 2 weeks ago
If anyone was curious the reason for “cheese” is to turn black tar heroin into a snortable powder. It’s not really well known because people who buy tar smoke it or inject it and if you wanted to snort heroin you would just buy powder form, but powder used to be hard to find on the west coast until fentanyl became big.

If what we perceive as reality is a simulation the purpose is quite clear, to observe the behavior of overconfident idiots unfettered by the mediating tendencies of a too reasonable reality.
HyonoKo@lemmy.ml 2 weeks ago
Maybe it’s some higher dimensional grad student simulating something to get some plots to add to a poster his postdoc wants him to present at a small time conference somewhere. Our consciousness is just a side effect because he insisted in doing the coding in Haskell.
forrgott@lemmy.zip 2 weeks ago
Your reply kinda reminds me of Thirteenth Floor.
Olhonestjim@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Maybe it’s some kid’s half-assed science project.

Naz@sh.itjust.works 2 weeks ago
That’s so many nested assumptions, lol:
Assumption table
- Graduate student in academia
- Running a simulation for data
- For a conference
- Haskell
The probability value of all four being true simultaneously approaches ≈0%
Don’t forget the sheer, mind-destroying size of the universe, and its age.
shneancy@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
and honestly, even if it is a simulation, so what? do you have a way to get out? can you even exist outside of it? do you hurt or love any less knowing that? what are you supposed to do about it? give up? lay your simulation body on the simulation dirt and simulation die?
krunklom@lemmy.zip 2 weeks ago
If it’s a simulation someone must be running it. Maybe we could get their attention somehow.
Praying obviously doesn’t work. Maybe if we all stripped naked and just kind of started getting it on in a giant juicy fuck pile that would get their attention.
And they could make things suck less.
Scubus@sh.itjust.works 2 weeks ago

Absurdism is your friend. If nothing matters in the long run, if all of existence is absurd, why not enjoy the here and now?
Shanmugha@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Exactly this. Thank you for spelling it out

In our lanoratory I remember an warning sign:
Do not look at the laser with the remaining eye !!

I didn’t know DMT came in vape form. What a time to be alive.
ozymandias@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 weeks ago
well it’s always vaporized, burning it will destroy it…
but it turns out, with a little chemistry you can put anything into a vapedream_weasel@sh.itjust.works 2 weeks ago
I’m a thing, Greg. Can you put me in a vape?
funkajunk@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Even if we were in a simulation, we only exist inside of it and knowledge of whether or not we are “real” doesn’t actually change our interaction with the time and space inside our universe.
anton@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 weeks ago
The only thing one could do with knowledge of being in a simulation, is trying to find bugs and exploits.
From now on, I expect anyone claiming we live in a simulation to have a working perpetual motion device, faster that light communication, or something similarly impressive. If they don’t, their claim is meaningless.funkajunk@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Just because they can’t find exploits in a simulation sophisticated enough to run a seemingly infinite universe doesn’t mean there’s no simulation.

It’s failing just like real capitalism. Or succeeding I guess…if you’re a sociopath.
Simulation6@sopuli.xyz 2 weeks ago
Theory is that the human (and maybe other) brain creates a simulation of the world experienced through the senses and that ‘you’ interact with that. Everybody has their own simulation, no code to speak of. Drugs can ‘hack’ it by messing with the simulation and perception.
ExLisper@lemmy.curiana.net 2 weeks ago
Crazy people were spreading stupid shit like this on youtube for decades but I would really like to know why Vice thinks this is newsworthy now. Did the society became so stupid that being an idiot influences is now a valid profession?
ameancow@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Did the society became so stupid that being an idiot influences is now a valid profession?
Yeah.
reksas@sopuli.xyz 2 weeks ago
being a court fool or village idiot have been professions too. The problem nowdays is that too many people look up to the idiots as someone to seriously listen to, not as entertainment.

Well, a friend of mine took acid with a TV that n the room, and ut enabled him to see what was behind the signal, between the scanlines, on the other side of the picture.

Yeah, drugs and looking into lasers will definitely change your brain, no doubt. Dunno if I want advice from someone who does that, tho…

That laser is way too close to his eyes. Anyway, probably just seeing the speckle pattern, which granted, can look really cool and moves with your head as you tilt it.

Didn’t you know? In addition to trains tech bros also invented psychedelics
bobo@lemmy.ml 2 weeks ago
According to the dude, people with no foreknowledge also saw the same things. “Seeing the code of the matrix” definitely sounds better than “DMT enhances random patterns”.
