Can the theory of solipsism be reconciled with the theory that reality is an ultra-simulation?

I have always imagined that Real Reality (RR) is outside the simulation, something like in The Matrix when they are in those capsules, but on a local level. A technologically supra-advanced society that has these capsules in their homes, and when they get into the capsule, they enter the game (birth), something similar to GTA but taken to the extreme, where you think that is reality. Once you die, whether by accident or natural causes (of your avatar in the game), you wake up again in the capsule. For example, in RR hours have passed, but in the simulation you have experienced 80 years (or however long you last in it). Like virtual reality, but on such an immense scale that you enter the game itself (although it would only be your mind) and believe that the simulation is real, but in RR you are inside the capsule. And that is also why the deceased cannot return, because apart from being a simulation, upon re-entering the capsule, you would restart (be born again as a baby). After all, everything is code.

What do you think of my theory?

>The Matrix
Matrix theories are just Gnostic ideas or Essence primordial outworld ideas (so, schizo but religious) but with more step into modern phenomena of quantum mysticism or psychobabble, computer and code and pop culture and sci-fi like Scientology lore.
So, to me its bullshit.
>Also
Sometimes maybe i believe there's something out of this place but i dont give a shit about it and its inexactly and non-explainable.
Bsck in time i got a schizo moment and ended believing in a lot of things similar to gnosticism and the matrix theories, why? i dont know, maybe the paranoid mindstate or the brain fucked.
Philiph K dick ended in the same way (he created the matrix) but he was more fully schizo and magick maybe.
Just read VALIS.

I've had a few dream experiences like that, where the passage of time in the dream state far exceeded the time for which I was actually sleeping. It was quite jarring. Hope those capsules come with a warning label and a toll free number to call in case of addiction like they have for compulsive gamblers in need of help.

I feel reality is weirder than what most simulation theories aptly describe. The idea of there being NPCs or not and things being not really all that real and the afterlife being your real life or something aren't compatible with a few understandings those who have lived can tell you are true:
Life has its own will.
Your own will manifested through the personal, conscious exercise of it can make this will bend to your actions. Sometimes.
Your conscious will is nonetheless in synchrony with the Will. Life is a series of images of moments that have already passed.
Time is weird. Living is weird. Thinking you're inside a computer doesn't even come close to explaining all its oddities. Like meeting a woman and knowing you'll sleep with her. Like saying goodbye to another and nonetheless knowing there's more to come, in some way. Like your imagination showing you what you're meant for, from the moment of your birth, and guiding the way. Like dreams you've already had but forgot either in the future or the past resurfacing at a very exact moment to shock you, to tell you something. Like taking some action unconsciously and knowing it was necessary in a way or another. Like reading the way and the will and understanding them in their senselessness. Like chaos unfolding in order. Can simulations even be chaotic? Can the chaos of sex, of bonding, even be simulated in its entirety, the complete mess of insides turning into an absolute mess, glans coming together, fluids blending, s

>or is (maybe) there some deeper shit going on, spiritually talking
dont know, back in time i executed a lbrp and my inner monologue and daydreams stopped a little.
Other times i did the GPR in the bathroom and the angryness go away
Other times did a custom lbrp and i ended with a calm quiet and a sensation and cleanliness that started to clean the house and rooms (you're supposed to get a sacred place sensation not this but cool anyway)
One day i just started to chant while meditating and get same effect. if you do metta is (maybe) interesting to do.
Maybe it just the vagus nerve working or some form of placebo, exercise to focus  relaxation and etc, maybe it just grounding techniques
who knows...

>Astrology
There're some rising/ascendent - Sun - Moon and Houses and planets interaction in some birthcharts that supposed make some people more prone to imagination, creativity and day dreaming, same with dissosiations and addictive behaviour or drug usage or scapism
>What?
Moon in Piscis?, some planets in mercury? I dont remember all the sign, rising and planets and houses etc exactly.
You can check your birthchart with astroseek and your born hour and aproximated location you live.
But this is reductionist and generalization of your personal life, even the personality test are "reality" bacause personality is a mutable things depending some social context.
Good luck pope, may you be healthy and happy.

Hypothetically speaking , could Elon Musk have paid sex\ hire prostitution from succubi who are living goddesses of beauty like jenna ortega or ariana grande? This question may seem coomer but Im serious: I need to understand HOW powerful money is (or is not) and Im giving an extreme example to make a point.
Im not talking about expensive prostitutes, anyone who makes 6 figures can afford that.
Im talking about succubi who are as I said, living "mythological goddesses" of beauty.
Such as the examples I gave. or selena gomez, Cara develigne, etc
Basically im asking if money can give the supreme carnal pleasure upon this earth OR if there's much more nuance, divergences and concentric fields of "hedonic value" at play here

She broke their cabals and say fuck all in a championship. why? bacause she's beatiful and the mere existence of she turn assholes into a machismo mode and harrased her just bacause she is beatiful in chess play.

I'm now unbanned, and I just wanted to say: necrobumping is NOT all that I do.  In fact, I'm probably the most active poster on here.  I make threads all the time along with replying to new threads AND necrobumping old ones.  I just want to make this site more active, as this is pretty much the only truly great imageboard left.  I have no bad intentions whatsoever.  Am I still allowed to necrobump at all?

I think a big part of what we're seeing is, Erischen is overally against generic imageboard topics like US/UK/Rus-Ukr/Isr-Pal politics, basic edgelord shit, the kind of stuff you'll find on every 🗿/pol/🗿 or 🗿/b/🗿. And a lot of the stuff being pulled up from the dead was exactly that kind of gray trash, which wasn't removed by staff but was shunned and pushed to the bottom.

IMO there's nothing wrong with simply bumping an old thread. The problem is that they were old threads filled with people saying "we don't like this, go away", being bumped just to say "I also don't like this". Suddenly the front page is just flooded with things no-one likes. And that makes me sad.
