Imagine doing this but then having to stare at the main menu for 8 hours lmao
You’ll know you’re in trouble if you’re arguing and he stares blankly and starts jabbing his finger at the air.
One day, he’s going to try to log out, and the logout button will be missing.
Then the only way he’ll be able to wake up is by beating all 100 floors of his dream. But if he dies in the dream, he dies in real life.

You can look for sword art anywhere. I guarantee the library has some books.

Cheating in a duel against the game master in floor 75*
It will definitely happen if someone tells him that :)
so basically real life
Thank god my nightmares are not viewed in vim. I can’t Google how to quit it while I’m sleeping!
Vim, I wish I knew how to quit you! (/s obviously bc Vim is life)

Escape puts you in normal mode, visual mode is v

Would that mean your nightmare is all in ASCII?
Might be. Some unrecognizable, nightmarish UTF8 mixed in with the wrong encoding maybe?
That’s just Thursday
Vim is the nightmare.
Vim is the dream
Click escape, which gets you out of the current write mode.

Title made me lose the game.
Let’s get you back to bed, gramps
“I was Zerg Champion of Bumfuck, '97, you little ingrate! My CPAP mask needs to be cleaned…”
Damnit, I lost as well.
I usually quit by dying.
The second I realise I’m dreaming I wake up.
I think it’s because the second I am some level of conscious the deep rooted anxiety starts again and jolts me up 🙂
Nothing scary than real life.
You should try flying instead.
At least you don’t go through a series of false awakenings when it happens. Those are generally not the most fun, since at best they ruin lucid dreams (it’s sort of a way for your mind to go back to sleep, and typically resets your awareness of being in a dream), and at worst it fucks with your sense of reality big time.
That’s why I don’t nap anymore… I lucid dream sometimes, but usually not with naps. Those are just hyper realistic emotion bombs with full physical sensation.
So one day I was having one of my awful nap dreams, and it was super negative, so I decided to wake up. So I did. And then I realized I was still sleeping, and tried again… Dozens and dozens of times, every trick I could think of. I could feel my actual body unable to move (thanks sleep paralysis!), and I kept cycling back to dreaming, starting the whole thing over again.
Try spinning around in place in the dream! Sometimes it can help keep me dreaming cause I focus on my dream body and not my asleep body

>:q!
Colon Q exclamation point? 6 keystrokes to leave? Sheesh.
If you wrote your dream to disk beforehand,

might be unnecessary.4 keystrokes!!
If we’re not counting the shift key, ZZ to quit is only 2!
I started lucid dreaming when I was about 8 years old. This was before google, and when I asked my parents about it, they had no idea what I was talking about. So I didn’t know what exactly was happening, but I did know it was super gay to be conscious while sleeping, so I spent a few weeks figuring out how to forget I was dreaming. I eventually succeeded, but ever since I’ve had the ability to think “Oh, this is a nightmare, I need to wake up.” and open my eyes, wide awake.
That kind of sounds like a strategy to trigger lucid dreaming. I’ve heard that if you envision a specific thing while falling asleep, like for example the StarCraft menu screen, then it will appear somewhere in your dream. When it does, it’s supposed to sort of jostle you into consciousness but not wake you up.
It seems that what this person’s friend did with his free will in dream land is nope right out of there. He could have turned that nightmare into something awesome though!
My nightmares always turn into semi lucid dreams, it’s like “this is so horrible it must be a nightmare” and then I can choose to just nope out of sleeping.
My old man taught me that telling someone one is having a nightmare stops it from coming back. I’ve found that just saying it out aloud works as well.
I’ve used it quite a few times throughout my life, never fails. It’s supposedly pretty eerie for others though when I just sit up in bed in the middle of the night, proclaim “I’m having a nightmare” and then promptly going back to sleep.
Even if you are aware you are in a dream it can be difficult to control it, at least in my experience. More like I wake up on a roller coaster but I’m not sure if its a fun one or a scary one yet, but I can choose to stay and see how it goes.
Computer! Arch.
I’m trying this right now but it doesn’t work. Am I not asleep? Is this shitty life real?
I just don’t dream… anything. I remember having dreams as a kid, and I remember what it felt like waking up, knowing I’d had a dream, but forgetting it. But anymore, I just don’t have any dreams anymore.
You probably have dreams but are not aware because you do not wake up during a dream anymore. Maybe your sleep habits changed. You can remember dreaming only if you wake up during REM sleep. I know it is not possible probably, but if you have someone watch you while you are sleeping and wake you up a few seconds after they see your eyes moving, you’d probably remember your dream.
You might have got sleep apnoea. If you also happen to not really feel rested in the morning. I know people that haven’t had it diagnosed for decades and it turned their life around and they also finally dreamed again. As a “byproduct” of not nearly dying every night, but resting.
IF there is a pathological reason. Can also just be you don’t stand up shortly after your last REM-sleep and go into deep or light again. Might wanna just check with some smartwatch or just an alarm mid-sleep to check if you then remember stuff.
Off on a tangent, but I dated a woman who had sleep apnea, and wore the CPAP mask at night.
In the morning, because of being pumped full of air all night, she would fart the most deepest, longest, most glorious farts for like 2 or 3 minutes straight. We would just laugh, and laugh…
Wut? 😂 Never heard of such a correlation, but it’s surely funny
Hmm do you perhaps watch some streams or listen to podcast before sleep ( or even during sleep technicaly speaking ) ,beacuse i also dont dream when i do this.
But i on the other hand also dream vwry vividly and intensly when i think about stuff before sleep ( whatewer it is , book idea , aliens, power fantasy about conquest of russia, imagining the layout of pipes around my house ).
Eat more bananas !
Idk, i remember reading that banana makes your dream more lucid.
Huh…
I share a similar experience to the person you replied to, but recently I’ve been doing the “wake up knowing you had a dream but can’t remember it” thing again, and I’ve also been eating more bananas recently.
Coincidence?!
Sugar makes me dream.
Start taking ssri and every night is an adventure
Sleep with a nicotine patch on. The most vivid, fantastical dreams you’ll ever have.
Are you a stoner? That kills the recall of your dreams but not the actual dreaming. You just never remember
No, cannabis is understood to decrease REM sleep, and that “kills” the actual dreaming.
I sleep so well after getting mildly stoned.
Decades ago I used to smoke “regularly”, but even at my height I never smoked that heavily
I mean i just have to kill myself and hope it’s really just a dream. I would like a quit menu
