Dream technology is weird

My wife was just telling me about trying to look up information on a phone in her dream and couldn't get it to give her useful information, she was trying to figure information on a disaster or something that was happening in her dream

Well my dreams last night were about a group of people that were having a competition in a barber shop to see who could cut out holes from the skin on the top of their heads without looking at how deep the incisions were and without any anesthetic...

So honestly - not looking at my phone is really the most reasonable part of the majority of my dreams.

One time I had a dream where I saw something really cool happening (can't remember what exactly) and I decided to take a picture with my phone to view it later.

I woke up disappointed that it wasn't saved to my camera roll.

Me who often has super mundane, but extremely vivid dreams of just regular life, including using my phone: Why can't I dream about riding a dinosaur in a massive McDonald's warehouse like I did when I was 12? ‍

Recently I had a dream that involved my (smart) watch and phone. Only for knowing the time though. I thought that I had overslept for work, but every time I looked at my watch, my phone, or the clock on the wall, the time was different (but always way too late). At some point I think I woke up, because I remember looking at my watch, concluding that everything was fine and that I could still sleep and hour, and fell asleep again. But then the dream started again by pulling a "you dreamt that you overslept but now you have actually overslept".

I just had a dream where I used a laptop. I was on the phone with someone and had AirPods, but don’t remember seeing the phone.

At least once a week, I have a dream where some piece of technology that I use every day just won't work properly. I was up frustrated.

I've had this same feeling. Stable diffusion really got me.

The weird fever dream you get after writing code for too long...

When I was 12, most of the dreams I remember were about fire, spiders, or super-embarrassing myself at school. I do NOT miss them

No, it was more like a news ticker or a tornado warning that would appear when watching live TV.

My dreams have no technology.

Lately too many have been about peeing, and I wake in a panic. I feel like I’m playing chicken with myself

Mine were either falling from great heights, riding in a car and driving off a bridge, getting crushed in a collapsing tunnel (lots of bridges and underwater tunnels where I grew up), or full blown hardcore pornographic dreams that involved the weirdest shit imaginable that made me question my sanity when I woke up.

12 is a super awkward age. Lmao

Have you tried lucid dreaming? It's fairly simple to get into. A lucidity check throughout the day that gives you something to check for in dreams. Mine is placing my fingertips over my nostrils and breathing in. If I can't breathe, I'm awake, if I can, I'm asleep. Once you get into the habit of doing it you'll start doing it in your dreams, and as soon as you realize you're asleep you can take control. Just don't close your eyes or look in mirrors.

Then I'd just be scrolling my phone, but the memes suck because I have to manually think of them.

I have constant dreams behind the dashboard of an Airbus A320neo. It’s been a solid week of the same dream. The autopilot isn’t working so I have to manually do calculations of banking angles and then time it with my flight plan that I have no idea how to type into the flight computer.

I’m not a pilot at all. Help

Years back, when I was working helpdesk and was on overtime, I traveled to visit my long-distance girlfriend. The first night, I was so tired that I quickly fell asleep. Apparently, in my sleep, I kept asking her for her username so that I could log the ticket.

Play Flight Sim to get it out of your system.

Alternatively, stop playing Flight Sim to get it out of your system.

I had my phone in a dream for the first time yesterday! I only used it to call my partner, but it was definitely there.

Fuck it, fly into the 3rd tower to get it outta your system!
