Computer going crazy when on mushrooms

Hi everyone
Has anyone else experienced electrical appliances/pc behaving oddly when tripping on mushrooms? For the past 3 weekends running, myself and my boyfriend have taken mushrooms, on each occasion the laptop has behaved in a very odd way, pages not loading and going crazy. This last weekend I took the shrooms and he didn't, the computer still played up badly, and was fine the following day, so we know it wasn't just my perception of it. I'd be interested to know if anyone else has experienced this, also my pets act oddly for some reason. thanks, pixy

I've had this happen on multiple occasions on multiple drugs. I even have a running joke with a friend that her phone is on acid because I once plugged it into a charger while on acid and the phone is absolutely fucky to this day.

Perhaps you just percieved it in a different way.
When I trip, my computer works completely fine, but it sometimes seems like it takes forever to start up. This is probably because of the time perception distortion that comes with mushrooms.

Agree... Probably perception or enhanced awareness

Yes this is a very commonly reported occurrence which I have experienced regularly; also corroborated by witnesses; One time I strummed the top of my closed laptop like an electric guitar and a chord loudly resounded through the wall speaker it was connected to, amazing myself and two witnesses.
Perhaps; perturbations in the creative energy field/ increased flux by the tripper intuiting the true nature of reality and co-creating/interacting in a new and powerful -but "jerky way"; like learning to drive stick: not yet completely coherent.
The electro-magnetic field of the heart;
-------------------- Favorite entheogen experiences in descending order: 1)Combo of oral DMT + smoked Bufotenine 2)Amanita (urine drank twice) 3)Mushrooms > Achuma 16"+cid(still need higher dose Achuma)> Cid (still need high dose) 4)Morning Glory-HBWR (+cumin, cinnamon aldehyde adducts) > Methyl chavicol (need more activators) 5)Salvia (need to try quid)
All readable matter in the above post is ficticious... any similarities to real life are purely coincidental. Blessing.

The message here is: just enjoy the drug and don't ruin the experience by immersing yourself in a digital world.

Yeah time dilation and mental distortions probably make small issues seem like giant ones. I know my phone becomes exponentially complex when I'm tryping.

I don't see how eating hallucinogens can change the software that's being run on a computer, I do get that it could remarkably change the way you percieve it.

I would also agree it is likely just your perception of events. I've especially noticed that I pay more attention to little things like that when I trip

Anything with a screen on it acts kinda funny for me when I'm tripping on just about anything.
I try not to look at screens while I'm tripping anyways, expect for when putting on\changing music.

Lots of time if I'm deep in a trip and try to navigate my phone I feel like it has a mind of it's own. I'll try to get to an app to play music but the screen goes the other way and opens up something completely different. Also I remember one day specifically I moved my computer to out living room and hooked it up to the speakers in there. I was having trouble getting the sound to play but worked it out and watched a movie. Later that night I had two friends over and we each ate about 2.5 gs and watched this Eddie Izzard set that I had saved on my computer. A little later in the trip we wanted to watch waking life so I grabbed the DVD and popped it in and suddenly there was no sound. I tried what I could in the middle of a trip but I never got it to work. Computers are against you every step of the way during a trip.

The numbers on the password entry screen on my iPhone would move around and get bigger or smaller and they would have patterns between them. Needless to say, getting into my phone was difficult. Haha.

I like tripping and surfing when it's cold out. Last week I lost control of my browser while surfing sketchy porn sites on acid and spent 2 hours fixing it. That sucked. I generally stay off facebook while tripping though since the messages make no sense and I worry I might post something stupid. Youtube though I have the trippy videos playlist ready.

I have a strong love/hate relationship with technology.
Tripping makes the hate come out more for some reason.

I love my phone when I'm tripping. On a trip with my buddies and my girlfriend, we spent hours laughing at the badger dance and this trippy picture with Santa clause. To this day we joke about it. Had it not been for technology, that wouldn't have happened!
