Reality vs Perception
We experience the world through our senses and mind, but if all perception is subjective, can we ever know reality as it truly is, or is it always a construct of our consciousness?

we dont know what reality is, we just assume that our five senses is all there is, because those are our limitations we have to work with
It is true, reality is a shared sensory and experienced time.
Everyone still has a unique version to add in conversation, though.

Each mind has it's own way of interpretation, own way of coming to the world, own ways of manipulating the world, limits are found in bulk data, but individually it will always look unique if your mind can't bundle large data.

Imagine thinking other people exist
I see, therefore it is.

You are just an expression of me, as I am to you. Shall we fight each other over who has the most self righteous expression of individuality? yeah this realm is a joke

It can be solipsism, or it can be a simulation. Both are possible.

I am bit colour blind would at least my perception of it is a bit different.



Also sci-fi but wondering what about being in a perfect vacuum with zero fluctuations aside from our brain would we sense it or think of it as what is?

Also strings would still vibrate in more then our 3 dimensions if there is a other side and they search for live best spot to say hello I would guess.

Well, first there's what most people mean when they say "reality," which is basically "everything I can perceive."

Then there's what they should mean when they say it, which is "everything we can conceive of."



Now, take both of those and toss them out the window. Because any such theoretical construct is by definition incapable of satisfying the concept of a fundamental reality.

All humans exist in Plato's cave, and only exit (maybe) after death.
Everyone here is ai, everything you see on the internet is all part of it's program to hide itself and you're the only human on the internet.
My perception is reality from my POV. Just because it doesn’t happen to you doesn’t mean it doesn’t happen.
Don't touch anything. without a stick and some gloves
Exhales should be contained in mask.
Ear plugs before placed headphones.
exercise right to have XXXXXL facemasks and goggles
closing ones eyes and counting to keep track of time can be done one lid at a time

remember have yourself this way before helping another with their's

grass isn't greener on other side and just a strange broadleaf insidious clover growing and the showing of dirt is very noticeable and the dogs don't seem to have pulses that trampled all over and finding chewed tennis balls might excuse yourself for a moment to start ......

Reality vs Perception

If Xcom taught me anything it is that laser weapons should be skipped and plasma should be left after empty clipped. Rather not go electric when could always just gone on scanning and leaving lights emitting pops about before launching back off with anyone who might need a medic from being disturbed by a psionic sectoids lack of clothing
