@Potatofox @elexia @erkhyan To check if I'm dreaming, I try to read things - the text makes no sense and the words keep changing - not only the word itself, but also the font, for some reason.  @giovannicuriel @Potatofox @elexia @erkhyan I learned that trick from Batman the Animated series: "As Batman eloquently puts it at the end of that episode, “reading is a function of the right side of the brain, while dreams come from the left side.”" https://www.inverse.com/science/can-you-read-in-your-dreams I don't really encounter written words in dreams anyway, nothing appears in that level of detail, and it's mostly black and white. More impressions then photos.  @mathiastck @Potatofox @erkhyan for me words keep changing on me as I read things in dreams. Also have a really hard time texting coherent sentences. @erkhyan @Potatofox @mathiastck @elexia this article is amazing! Thanks for sharing it! @giovannicuriel @erkhyan @Potatofox @elexia #BatmanTheAnimatedSeries has been on my mind since we lost Kevin Conroy. I checked his wiki recently and am only more impressed: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kevin_Conroy  @giovannicuriel @Potatofox @elexia @erkhyan This trick works remarkably well! False negatives are rare for me; almost always the text changes on the second glance. @giovannicuriel @Potatofox @elexia @erkhyan Come to think of it, false *positives* could perhaps be achieved by some mischievous trickery with an e-ink display and a camera and some image "recognition" to change the text while you're not looking 😁 @quincy @giovannicuriel @Potatofox @elexia @erkhyan If you successfully get a false positive you need to upgrade that phrasing from mischievous to nefarious. @ZenithAstralis you're absolutely right. that would be truly nefarious. @giovannicuriel @Potatofox @elexia @erkhyan |
@Potatofox @elexia @erkhyan that happened to me once but I wasn't dreaming, just made a mistake while hacking my banglejs smartwatch
