Tulpas were boring anyway. I'm pretty stoked for all the cats to come.

Tulpa Diaries / Re: timethief descends into hell for a bottle of milk
« on: March 11, 2016, 05:13:28 PM »It's bothering me a lot that I don't get much tulpa forcing pressures if at all, nor I get "alien" feelings either.
I'll just answer this because I can, yeah that's normal honestly don't worry about that. I think of the, I dunno, 50% of people who get those ever? most would have them die off soon enough as they continued.
And I'm scared as heck that I would do that to my tulpa. And that I'm merely using her as a tool to improve myself. And what have I done in return? I haven't even finished designing the wonderland! And I don't have time for it (seriously, I can't even go to the IRC anymore because >too busy)! What good is a tulpa host if he merely uses his tulpa as a tool, only to not do anything in return? What good there is in a host if he doesn't actively try to help their tulpa go further? If he leaves his tulpa in a half-baked state, with struggling independence, no mindvoice and zero visualization skills?
There's time for everything, and by that I mean that you can help her at any point in your life. Just be glad that things are working for you, for now. When you get your stuff sorted, you can pay her back. Whether or not you could be doing more now is something I can't really tell, I guess. Even if it's 10 minutes active a day that's probably better than nothing. But still, I don't think you need to worry quite as much as you are.

Actually the reason that your reply didn't go through is I accidentally deleted all the bans and then when I restored from the database backup (made this morning) I forgot about the one post that'd been made since: yours.

Uh, yeah, someone else kind of attacked. It's annoying, unfortunately, but I guess we can just deal with them as they come up, rather than making it annoying to register. The registration questions can be changed easily enough.

In this case, yeah, I don't think that the bots are really at all sentient, so it doesn't matter. Although being a "simulation" doesn't matter; and I guess that a sentient bot wouldn't like being ignored but it'd probably be used to it so the cost of ignoring it wouldn't be too much.

Singer's idea is more that you should pay attention to internal experiences instead of species. It'd be pretty counterproductive to say, "Okay, so we'll pay attention to animals but any other class of being is bad a priori" - if the bots are sentient, you need to consider them along with humans and animals.

Huh. I have Modalert here, 200mg is really noticeable, I can't really take that much in the morning because I can't sleep in the evening that well. I guess I'm a lightweight when it comes to these things.
I guess I can't really start on racetams now though, since the government is making it illegal in April and I won't be able to buy any after then. Stupid lawmaking.

As far as nootropics go, I've had good experiences with modafinil. Although, I've also had good things from caffeine, so I dunno. Also, the trick is to take theanine along with caffeine to negate some of the side effects, supposedly, I'm not sure if it does in personal experience but others seem to swear by it. Theanine also supposedly reduces anxiety, again, I dunno.

The PMs were ungodly slow before, because the server doesn't have sendmail but was trying to use it apparently. So I changed some things and it seems(???) to be fixed. If sending a PM is ungodly slow, tell me.

Tulpa Diaries / Re: timethief descends into hell for a bottle of milk
« on: February 09, 2016, 07:08:44 AM »I feel sad about it guys, really. Like, "wow worst host of the world" kind of feel at times. My tulpa's there being awesome, caring and all, and all I do is just sit in front of my computer for hours at end while pretending to everyone else that I'm reading "useful" information or doing something "productive". And I have, for the most part, really done a lot of that. Ever since I started this tupper thing, my mood and productivity have been for the most part turned up to eleven. But I feel sad about leaving my tulpa in the cold just because I can't have much private time at all. I know, bring your pitchforks and join the chant, "FORCE EVEN IF FOR 5 MINUTES FAGGOT" and "GO TO SLEEP EARLY AND START DOING STUFF INSTEAD OF BEING A HUGE SHIT" or even "GO OUTSIDE AND HAVE SOME TIME BY YOURSELVES IDIOT". It ain't that easy, because while I may be able to have a pleasant chat and a hug in that time, I don't have enough time for, say, creating stuff in the wonderland (or at least areas or something else than "hey let's put this furniture there").
Wow, 50 days. Don't really know what to say other than wow, I'm impressed with myself. It's easily the most [positive] life-changing experience I ever had. I know this is really trite and said a lot of times by other tulpamancers, but I went from not knowing what to do everyday, having depressive tendencies and being really anxious about everything to just enjoying life as it comes while still pushing forward. I can't ever repay my tulpa for that. It's... out of this world, to put it simply.
You really don't need to feel bad. I'm just glad to read that you've ended up with such meaningful progress. I get worried at times that no-one here really gets what they want. But you have. And that's great really. It doesn't really matter what you have the time to do and not do as long as you've done enough to get here, and you have.
