I’ll get it when they make it Lan multi-player.
I think you will find that hell is other people.
I’d like to point these scientists at a 2006 movie called Paprika. Might be just a touch relevant to their studies…
This sounds kind of terrifying. I’m sure it will fly off the shelves
Lucid dreams are fun until you can’t turn it off. Then you just become trapped in your dreams every night trying to constantly wake up.
Just don’t use it? It’s a device that actively causes lucid dreaming, you wear it around your head when you sleep. If you find the lucid dreams unpleasant just don’t put it on again.
You don’t need a dumb device to have lucid dreams.
You’re also completely missing the point, but whatever.
Oh dear… I must say, I hope something like this is banned for recreational usage. Before it hits the market.
Otherwise I’d be worried about creating a generation of the worst addicts we’ve ever seen, like, WALL-E tier stuff. Powerful narcotics have nothing on lucid dreams, they just normally take work to accomplish. A good bit of it, actually.
There are plenty of techniques to induce a state of lucid dreaming that don’t involve technology that have been used for quite a while now.
I hope not. I could use some quality escapism.
There are also books, games and movies that are really engrossing and I find myself feeling very much immersed in. Those need to be banned immediately as well, of course.
I think their point is fair. Dreams can be way more intense and feel real.
You can’t compare actually experiencing something as if you are there to watching a film.
