It's just a voice inside your head that says what you're thinking. Like when I'm typing this out it says the words as I type them or as I think ahead as to what to type.

I think if you'd have one, you'd know. There's zero confusion on my part whether it's there. It's definitely there talking to me any time I'm thinking of words.

That sounds pretty similar to me. I have to really be focusing to do it, if I were looking at someone and trying to do it, there would be a lot of competing sensory information. I could do something but it would keep getting broken up by distraction. It definitely works best just in a nice quiet room.

His thing sounds different. I do dream (often prolifically), and when I visualize with my eyes open it tends to be something I'm trying to visualize such as a new paint color, furniture placement. I'm pretty good at it, my visions usually work out pretty well when taken to action. I'm imagining them more than really seeing them, but I'm able to do it well enough to accomplish the tasks I need to visualize.

Taste is an interesting one.

I can't say I can truly taste at will but I can remember the experience of tasting something well enough to be able to "visualize" what taste I am craving, sometimes by imagining different tastes one by one until I find the right one. I'm not really tasting them but sort of replaying the experience of tasting them which is enough for me to understand the taste.

But it's more like my brain describing it to me than actual taste. It's weird.

I definitely have both. I can even visualize things with my eyes open. I switch back and forth between modes depending on the content I'm working on in my head.

If it's a different person than you, then you have a different issue ;-).

I have a VM running as a seedbox with full time VPN on my synology NAS. I use that synology for lots of other stuff.

So another instance then?

Yeah I could see it for very young babies where you may need to change things every few months. But after 2-3 years old I don't see it making sense.

36 GBP a month for 10 items of kids clothes? That's 432 GBP a year. I'd think you could easily buy many more than 10 items of clothes for that amount and other than kids under 3 I don't think you'd need to replace them more than annually.
