Did you not look at the comments on that lemmy post? Dalimey was the top comment

A lot of people microdose magic mushrooms with lion's mane for this reason

Personally it just makes me emotional all around, not happy per-say. If anything I'd say it helps me to open up and feel sad, but in a good way. It's like an emotional release. So I can totally see the use in therapy as I personally find it therapeutic already, even without a therapist.

I've not experienced any of the aftereffects that others describe either, but I know some of my friends say they're always very down for a few days after.

Eh, you shouldn't get hit with anything serious unless you're hosting a server that's seeding tons of content. The worst I've seen people who occasionally pirate getting is a 'stop being a pirate, asshole!' letter from Disney or something. I tried cyberghost for a while and it was such trash that I wish I hadn't wasted money on it, I've just not bothered with VPNs since.

Oh I've meditated many times, including guided meditation with a professional a few times. So while I'm far from an expert, I'd consider myself familiar enough to have reasonable expectations and be able to make comparisons to other meditation tracks. To clarify, I wasn't saying I'm unsuited to meditation, simply unsuited to that specific tape and presumably the tapes that follow. Although I suppose I've never found meditation to be particularly useful anyway apart from for relaxation.

It's because meditating doesn't give you an immediate dopamine hit

Just went and tried the Orientation tape. It's quite nice for relaxing I suppose, but I struggled a lot with both the visualisation and the "hypnosis", also the long silences were tedious. I have aphantasia and I've found hypnotism doesn't work at all for me before in the past, so perhaps I'm simply unsuited for this.

Well that's ChatGPT not bing, and no they aren't the same

They're implementing it, but no it currently isn't using the ActivityPub protocol

I wasn't talking about the exceptions to the rule, I simply meant that from a practical standpoint you aren't going to be able to stream 99% of your games over the internet and this service doesn't offer that, unlike jellyfin's media. But yes you're right streaming games is a thing, just not in this case.
