6·1 month agoThanks for sharing, I’m tremendously intrigued by this. I really can’t imagine your experience.
When think of a song I like, I almost automatically “hear” it in my mind. It doesn’t interfere with my actual ears, it’s kind of on a separate plane of existence. Other noises in the real world can be distracting but I can (with a little effort) ignore one and focus on the other. Are we on the same page here?
With visual stuff it’s exactly the same. If I think about a person I know, I immediately see their face. Not with my eyes, but on a separate plane again. It doesn’t interfere with what my eyes are seeing but can require some concentration to focus on details. My internal monologue might say their name or I’ll hear something they once said to me, and I’ll experience certain emotions depending on the person. What happens when you think about a person?

21·9 months agoAnd in the UK (where Yorkshire is) we have a points system. If you build up 12 points you lose your license, and speeding can get you between 3-6 points per offence depending how serious it was. So it’s really not just a case of the rich speeding all the time, paying the fines and carrying on.
This is the huge disconnect between what the fediverse is and what the users actually want.
Users want the convenience of a single entity that floats around the different instances. They want to interact with community A on instance B and also commini X on instance Y.
But most clients deal with it by letting you log in with multiple users on multiple instances
I was once walking past a gay bar with a buddy of mine. A drunk guy stumbled out, looked us both up and down and yelled “Phwoar! That’s a porno I wanna watch!”.

18·3 years agoThanks! I mostly lurked on reddit for many years (as a Digg refugee), and I want to try and get out of that rut and actually contribute some content here. Wish me luck!
