Hah, yes and no. What we see sober is an illusion, and etheogens just show us other illusions, so that with some effort we can cross-correlate them and hopefully arrive at The Truth. It being that there is no such thing.

Most one can do is accept that one is limited by one's perception and then keep that in mind.

It also won't work on DMT. Because when you take DMT, whatever variety, you will not be able to look at a monitor, a picture or anything really. The whole concept of "looking at something" is inapplicable then.

> why isn't my brain upping the dose?

because you are not stressing it in the right way.

PS. idk where you got the idea of 'we're at some kind of evolutionary local minimum'. it was never about that.

And mindful people know that by defeating the dragon you become the dragon, which they do not wish. So everyone else is stuck with the old dragon.

This is a trivial task for 20 year old ArcGIS release. Or an evening with python 2.4 and some docs on file formats.

Now, back then 1-m resolution DEMs were not widely available, but 10-meters were up for download, freely.

Pff. Nginxs mods exporting metrics were written by the dozens before Prometheus was a thing.

Prom export is also inefficient as fuck. No one serious uses it.

Edit: I wrote two, one in 2009, another in 2013 in case you wonder.

You can not offload fraud and abuse on 'oh well there are so many new domains'. This is bullshit.

I went into internets in 1995. Must I tell you about fraud and abuse in early 2000s?

Blocking domains is a cheap shot. It ticks a box somewhere maybe, but it does not and can not prevent or mitigate.
