I will feel the person's anger more and more strongly as the distance between us decreases. The person doesn't need to outwardly show any sign of anger for me to feel it - they can appear perfectly calm but if they are angry, I'll feel it.

When I interact with people, I don't try to put myself in their shoes. I've known for many years that I can sense other people's strong emotions, so I mostly focus my awareness on how I'm feeling and use that as a sense. If how I'm feeling changes spontaneously (not caused by my mental focus, thoughts, or reaction) when I'm interacting with someone, I'll know that I'm sensing something from the other person.

My experience of other people's anger is different from when I feel angry. I experience other people's anger as a very uncomfortable sensation my abdomen and solar plexus. It's similar to when I feel angry but I'm more detached and I'm observing the uncomfortable sensation, which is mostly localized to my solar plexus. When I'm angry, my thoughts and emotions are fully engaged, my anger has a direction, and I feel it fully in my body. Like, "I'm experiencing anger vs I'm angry."

When I experience someone else's anger, it's not directed at the object of their anger - it's just a sensation.

So if someone is angry at me, I don't feel angry at myself - I just feel their anger being directed at me

The way I believe it works is through resonance. Have a look at this video that illustrates it with wine glasses: https://youtu.be/lTl0badhh8Y

People are like wine glasses that vibrate how they are feeling and if someone is capable of resonating with them, they begin to feel it too.

If my baseline feeling is far from anger (I'm feeling a strong positive emotion), I'll feel other people's negative emotions less, or not at all.

If you’re talking about lucid dreaming, try looking at your hands or to read some text.

I've cleared entries before with efibootmgr.

My favourite games from childhood were the Ultima series (3 onward).

I’ve done this recently twice and it worked between 2 different distros on different hardware. I don’t remember if I had to link it again, but if I did, it worked and my history was intact.

Do a search for "One Pace". A good feeling pace is about 2 manga chapters per anime episode but the anime creators reduced that to 1 chapter per episode when they started running low on material. One Pace edits the anime to 2 chapters per episode and has it follow the manga more closely.

A sample of a scene from an episode with both versions compared:

This isn’t something I know how to create, so tossing the idea out for those who might know how to implement it.

The bot would detect Amazon links here and automatically create a comment in the post with a ca.camelcamelcamel.com link for the product.

This would let readers easily check the price history of the product to know if the current sale is a good one.

The same (or a different bot) could also link to fakespot (or some other review checker) for the product.

If by ”backup” you mean “infrequently used”, be careful about using Tutanota for that purpose - it will delete free accounts after 6 months of inactivity.

RandomDude’s last comment was from a month ago, so you might not get a response if you wait for their approval. You could give it a week or so to see if there’s a response and activate the bot if you don’t get one. The community is dead anyway if nothing changes, so there’s nothing to lose by trying.

If you use Voyager or some other front end that uses gestures on a touchscreen, you can sometimes accidentally up or downvote when scrolling or navigating.

If you’ve stopped attempts at this because of previous comments, I think it’s worth revisiting. The community doesn’t have the population or participation level needed yet for it to function. It’s too much to ask for one person (RandomDude) to keep alive by themselves.

As things stand you need to return to Reddit anyway for the info, so populating it with posts or links from there would at least keep people on Lemmy.

If people don’t like it, they can always block the account of the bot making the posts and they’d be left with only human generated content.

When the community is large and engaged enough to function without the bot, it can be disabled.
