how do you know i actually exist at all? isn’t everything just a projection of your perceived reality?? the whole brain in a jar idea…




My favorite way to handle this is to just consider the cases. Either I'm a brain in a vat, creating my own reality (solipsism). Reality is more or less what it seems to be. Or, something in between?

If I'm a brain in a vat, then it's basically matrix rules and I should be able to fly and stop bullets. If reality is more or less how it seems, and how humans have evolved to see it, then it is sort of business as usual. The case of somewhere in between gives rise to an infinite number of possibilities that could never be untangled enough to figure out what the best path is. So I only consider the first two. I think it's more pragmatic to hold that reality is more or less equivalent to my perception. But the other view points are equally valid. I just don't think they are useful so I don't hold them to be true.

Color is simply how we describe portions of light. We cant describe them with language without comparison.  Its like describing bubble gum to someone whos never tasted it

We know we all see it mostly the same because we know how lenses work and how to measure light. Our brains all have assigned differences between colors, the only differences are in those who are colorblind

What if everyone has the same favorite color?
But because we all perceive colors differently they have different names. So we don't know it.

i don't think it's possible to know that our brains are all interpreting the same signals in the same way. the exact colours we perceive are ineffable

Perception may be ineffable, but color is objectively measurable, and the names for specific hues are broadly agreed upon. Even if I perceive blue differently from you, we both recognize what is blue.

Parallax exists in all measurements.  And color is a spectrum.  There's no red, but a portion of a wave that we call red.  And that wave is going to be different depending on where you are in spacetime.  Example, red shift.

That's before we even get into measurements with raw senses.

This is pretty cool with white light passing through linear polarized filter then a cylinder of sugar water and another linear polarizing filter.

Fun experiment!  The follow-up video is longer and nerdier, but I'm enjoying it now too.

So a different kind of question, semi unfortunate. Long story short where I live they're criminalizing the possession/distribution of spores and cultures. Sucks. If you guys could get your hands on certain genetics and potentially never get any again what would they be? I already have on hand: GT, PE, TW, KSSS, Gandalf, X7x+, PM, Amazon.

If anyone wants to PM me their thoughts/other ideas on the topic it would be appreciated. Just when I started dipping my toes into this hobby they do this, oh well it is what it is. There goes my dreams of having a huge catalog of different varieties.

Stuff other than cubes.  Ochra, for example.  The learning curve on stone producers isn't bad either, and even if you don't get them to fruit, atl 7 will make a bunch of stones in vitro.

Maybe some wood lovers if you have outdoor space.

It's not the end of the world, some of us have never been able to even order directly from online vendors.

And what's a little misdemeanor for spores, when cultivation is more extreme...

I'm not advocating for anyone to break the law. But Prohibition has always been around.
It just motivates ppl to get creative. Look at NASCAR.

Appreciate the positive post. Not gonna lie kinda went into 'panic' mode. It was all doom and gloom there for a few hours. Honestly though I really wanted to do give-aways in the future and pay it forward. Sadly it'll only be take on my part. Either way thank you.

No, but you could put multiple shoeboxes into a mono with the lids off and it would work as a fruiting chamber

Im sterilizing reusable petris for the first time. I rerinsed them in vinegar water to clear water spots off of them, loaded in silicone bread pans, foiled the tops, then put the 3 bread pans in an oven bag and clothes pinned it shut. Into the oven at 300f for 2hrs. I think I read 1hr was sufficient, but I was worried about the petris still being wet, so I doubled it.

Suppose this is sufficient or should I shut it down and remove the bag and foil and dry the petris in the oven first? I needed my work table and didnt feel like hand drying 72 halves of petri dishes, but now I'm worried I'm cutting corners here.

Shoeboxes are already in fruiting conditions with their lids on. Makes life easy
