Okay, /x/, I need your help.
Someone posted this QR code with no text in some thread and I decided to scan it.
It contained a GPG signed message, with and Abash cipher.
Ralph Waldo Emerson says: "Ne te quaesiveris extra" (Do not look for your self outside"
some ##:## format things, 1-4, I'm assuming reference to religious text.
then Julius Caesar says: "wqmm//f.fjdr.zlj/JeqWulx.gmd"
then a GPG signature, i'd appreciate some help figuring the rest of this out.
There's two discoveries that will change mankind forever and we are now pretty sure that we will achieve it. If we know that we can achieve them in due time, that means they have already been achieved in the future.
I'm talking about true AI and virtual reality. If that is true, then my hypothesis is that we are most likely already living in a computer simulation of some sorts. The only way we'll be able to be sure is when we successfully develop AI/VR and have created our own human simulations at which point it will be a certainty that we ourselves are in such an artificial world.
So if that's the case and we're probably living in a simulation right now, what do you think its purpose is? I've always wondered how I could be sure that other people existed, after all they could just be programs created to fool my senses. Or perhaps we're all unique consciousnesses and this is just one of many dimensions (think quantum physics) they are testing to find some kind of solution for a problem they might be having.

>I'm talking about true AI and virtual reality.
We already have both of them RIGHT NOW.
Time travel might have been a more interesting topic.
>>17619816
>So if that's the case and we're probably living in a simulation right now, what do you think its purpose is?
Beats me. But I know as soon as we figure out the truth it will be shut off.
>>17619821
but there is no practical and foreseeable implementation of time travel. it would happen way past our achivement of AI/superintelligence.
what's definitely happening this century is our discovery of what makes us age and then we'll basically all be immortal. look up elizabeth parrish.
/x/ i need some more spooky music, or even spooky music videos. share what you got.

/x/ I was wondering if any of you have heard of/ have been to this place.
Its an abandoned psychiatric center on Long Island. Lots of urban legends and folklore surrounding it. Legends of an underground tunnel linking all the buildings for example. weird stuff, also a lot of paranormal stuff supposedly. Its also a big urban exploration site, I can post pictures that Ive taken similar to this one if you guys want.
>>17618501
I've been there before nothing special
I live about 30 mins from it. ive been there 10 times. 9 at night, once during the day time. I've only had one weird experience there.
>Walked up 13 floors of one of the more traveled buildings.
>ive walked this building plenty of times before
>we always look in all the rooms, its not hard to do, its very open like in ops pic.
>were coming back down the hall when we hear chains shaking, like someone is holding heavy chains and rattling them.
>the door is halfway open and its completely black inside. we had just looked at that room minutes earlier with flashlights.
>walk away from the room because were not sure who is in there, especially since we were just in it minutes ago, and remained on the same floor down the hall
>as we walk away, the door slams shut. we ran down stairs.
but ive been there other times and its hard to get around. its hard to park, you have to park at a bar down the road, not on the actual grounds.
cops patrol it and you can get in some shit for being there. once we went up a bunch of floors, went on a ledge, saw a cop cruising the grounds and we ducked down behind the 3foot high brick wall that stopped you from falling off the ledge. the cop ended up shining his high power lights up the walls of the building looking for people.
Ive been there before, and encountered other explorers who are always friendly. one time, we met a group of dudes who told us to not go to a specific area because there were not nice dudes scrap metal-ing. ill post some pics i have from there.

Hello again, /x/.
I'm looking for some input. For those that don't know me, I collect Nope stories, legends, anything /x/ related, and organize it in a library which I upload every Halloween. At today' s count, there are 4,456 stories in the NOPE stories section. Unfortunately, the farther back you look, the less quality control there is. In the last Halloween thread, I actually recommended that readers start from the most recent additions and work their way backwards, and that really shouldn't be the case. In the early days, around 2011-2012, I'd just copy-paste entire threads, and filter out only the troll posts later. While I've removed a lot of bad content since then, there's still plenty of stories that lack any worthwhile substance, or are poorly written.
The possibilities as of right now:
A.) Go back through every single story, and give each one a proper re-write. Greentext stories would be converted to a standard, full-sentence format.
B.) The greentext format is retained, but with changes to spelling, grammar, punctuation, and syntax for overall smoother reading. I already do this in stories saved in the past year or so.
Also, should stories with no substance be removed, or would you rather everything be kept? Not that no matter what, the old versions will always exist. This thing is backed up like you wouldn't believe.
I'm listening, /x/.
>>17617393
I may sound like a faggot, but I think the badly written ones do have some sort of charm to them. They have a sort of fine wine type to them. They may be older, but they're vintage.
>>17617393
>Not that no matter what
That should be *note* that no matter what,
Hello again, it's been a while.
I say keep them, in greentext format, as they are unless the spelling/grammar is absolutely ATROCIOUS, then fix the worst offenders. Even if there are a bunch of mistakes, I feel it's more "authentic" to leave the stories as they are unless the OP wishes otherwise.
By the way, I can't remember, did you ever find a site to host your stuff on?
Does anyone know If like a mobile/digital ouija board type thing existed? Like to get a device to communicate with me?

Alright, so, I mostly identify as atheist, and for the most part disregard the paranormal, but I'm really feeling desperate right now and for some fucking reason I'm willing to give a try.
Basically, long story short. There's a girl who I was really close with, we had a thing, and I pushed here away cause I'm a fucking STUPID piece of shit and Ive done this LOADS of times with people because I cant seem to trust them without making up some bullshit and quitting on them too early.
And I regret it. I really do. I almost feel like we were soulmates. We just clicked, in the best way.
She said I'd regret it when I did, and I didn't believe her. She was right, though. She knew.
Now she's with someone else, but.
I dont know. I just want another chance. Maybe I dont deserve it? But if there was any way, and I mean ANY to show her how I really felt, and not how my mask wants me to feel, I think we'd still be together.
If there is a "spell" or something that could help me accomplish this, or more, it'd be greatly appreciated.
And before a lot of you say "just tell her" quite some time has passed PLUS again, she's with someone else. Me and her just remained friends. So bringing it up now would be absolutely random on my part, and probably off putting.

As to how she survived, who the fuck knows
I know of black candles in rituals, but does anyone know what this means? The candle has writing on it and under it is a paper leaflet and some girls underwear.
OP, you're the ones that is there. What was on the leaflet? How far burned down was the candle? How did the panties fit?
>>17614446
The candle was recently lit, 10 to 15 minutes before finding it. The writing said holy bible but was only one page folded over, and the panties fitted nicely and I'm size 32 uk waist.

Do you guys think "aliens" are just humans from the future and UFO are time machines?
I recall time machines being invented when Roswell crash happened (or at least reverse engineered)
>>17611172
anyone?
I think they are modified humans from the past, specifically the time of the fallen angels, Atlantis, etc. I also think there are spirits that look like them. Altogether, they mediate between this world and the next, and occupy the space in between.
I am wondering if the government has created it's own version by now.
I also believe the narrative of "aliens" is propaganda and being hard pushed.
Finally, I'm fairly certain that at some point (if it hasn't happened already) a break away government run by them will be given/take control of all of us.
Pretty dire, I guess.

Maybe they are game masters or admins.

Jack Parsons writing to Aleister Crowley
Most Beloved Father,1
About three months ago I met Capt. L. Ron Hubbard, a writer and explorer of whom I had known for some time… He is a gentleman; he has red hair, green eyes, is honest and intelligent, and we have become great friends. He moved in with me about two months ago, and although Betty [aka Sara] and I are still friendly, she has transferred her sexual affections to him.
Although Ron has no formal training in Magick, he has an extraordinary amount of experience and understanding in the field. From some of his experiences I deduce he is in direct touch with his Guardian Angel. He describes his Angel as a beautiful winged woman with red hair whom he calls the Empress, and who has guided him through his life and saved him many times… Recently, he says, because of some danger, she has called the Archangel Michael to guard us…
Last night after invoking, I called him in, and he described Isis nude on the left, and a faint figure of past, partly mistaken operations on the right, and a rosewood box with a string of green beads, a string of pearls with a black cross suspended, and a rose… He is the most thelemic person I have ever met and is in complete accord with our own principles. He is also interested in establishing the New Aeon but for cogent reasons I have not introduced him to the Lodge.
We are pooling our resources in a partnership that will act as a limited company to control our business ventures. I think I have made a great gain, and as Betty and I are the best of friends there is little loss. I cared for her deeply but I have no desire to control her emotions, and I can, I hope, control my own.
I need a magical partner. I have many experiments in mind… The next time I tie up with a woman it will be on my own terms.
Thy son,
John

Who?
>>17611007
He is an incredible character in the the world of the occult. Devilishly intelligent, he created solid state rocket fuel and was a friend and conspirator with the likes of Aleister Crowley and L Ron Hubbard. He died in a freak accident when an explosion took place in his laboratory. Parsons was known for acute attention to safety and detail in his work so an accident was uncharacteristic, leading many to believe he was killed by the government.
How about some vintage weirdness?

This one is actually from an article by H.G. Wells. It shows what he believed to be the common man in a million years time
