it's amazing how well cats and humans can get along so well
I have to remind myself, I am in the presence of this tiny little living breathing creature with a mind of its own and feelings. I'm so used to being alone everything feels so cold and sterile, being surrounded by technology my entire life.
I've seen zoomers using their phones for browsing the web it's a bizarre sight to see, they are totally MKULTRA'd, they don't even browse they are on a news feed scrolling scrolling staring at a bunch of posts rather than actually being engaged in it themselves, that is going to have severe consequences to their ability for thinking and judgement.

dunno how good they are for anything but music though
it's where I get all my movie downloads and they seem to have a ton of games just make sure to install the games on a desktop you won't ever connect to your network or the internet
I wrote about one of them on the music board since it applies to music
I wish I could dream as long as I want. The dream world is so much more interesting, the scenarios, being able to live in particular eras (like being 15 again and at my grandparents with everyone still alive). Just now right before I woke up to a bunch of noise (my cat was messing with a pen on the floor making a loud whacking sound) I was inside my grandparent's house, 15 again, cousins their respective ages of the time asleep in their room, grandparents asleep in theirs and I was going to sleep in the livingroom but I stayed up to watch a new years eve music retrospective on tv, and in that dream hearing these pop songs from the early 00s made me feel so incredibly sad that the era is now gone, out of my reach, something I can no longer experience as my waking reality. I even had my old ipod in the dream, I was listening to music on shuffle. The tv hosts were dressed exactly like people would be back then, they were white and not degenerate and transgendered. I started yelling to myself in the dream "I WANT TO GO BACK, I WANT TO GO BACK".
I feel like such a foreigner to today's times, everything I loved and knew as my present reality is gone. Now the only way I can live is to dream.
if full-immersion VR existed right now I would set the world to resemble my early to mid teens and I would never leave, the sun would die out and all life on earth would cease to be before I unplugged
It was incredibly detailed too The hosts looked like actual people with their own unique clothing The commercials that were playing were completely detailed At one point they were showing a list of music they would be talking about and they mentioned Autechre, the host even pronounced the name right and showed a picture of the band and it looked exactly like them It was a really cool dream, right after that I was in my childhood apartment complex rolling a joint with my friend from that time then I went exploring while riding a scooter (the kind you push yourself, not the motorbikes)
That I was at my grandparent's house sitting on the recliner my grandma would use, watching this tv show about various songs of the 21st century up to now, it was an end of decade celebration/new year type show. It was late at night and everybody was asleep. This was on VHS or MTV so most of the music they were playing was pop, they played some Filter, Christina Agularia and some other stuff and even though I didn't like christina's music just hearing those familiar old pop songs made me so nostalgic and sad, I kept repeating over and over "I want to go back! I want to go back! (to the early 00s). Then to my right was my old iPod classic I had in 2006, I started playing various songs on shuffle most of which were stuff my mind made up while I was dreaming (they don't exist) but I also heard some Access to Arasaka

most of the PS2 games I have played are probably interlaced I don't notice a difference, they all look good if you're gonna play anything before the 7th gen you have to use a CRT tv otherwise it'll look like complete shit on an HDTV
