Does this seem normal or just weird?
in 25 years of living in my neighborhood,I’ve never witnessed a single person take a bag of anything inside their house (Shopping, groceries, mall items anything). now I don’t hang around the place outside but I find this really weird. about ten years ago, I used to think- am I the only one who eats in this neighborhood?? the neighbors diagonal from me have five children, and I have never once witnessed the mother or father bringing in groceries or a single bag at all and I’ve watched them come home many times. I’ve also never witnessed the children eating snacks or anything outside. My sister has three children and she struggles to get three meals a day and her children are always eating outside or eating at some point Or she is bringing food inside the house so is her husband.
for people who don’t know what this is here is what ai says about it: The feeling that you have never seen your neighbors bring in groceries is a very common viral observation and internet joke, often playfully linked to "simulation theory".

what others have said and on some videos there are at least 50 other people saying the same thing:
I thought I was the only one who noticed this growing up & even now. Sometimes it seems like I’m the only one in my neighborhood who goes shopping. It’s so strange, I’ve never seen anyone bring in any bags. Not groceries, not from the mall, nothing. Maybe they go in the dead of night lol
————————————————————————————-
people seem to hide their groceries or something weird is going on. I mean I have never caught a single person taking a single bag in for anything. me? I take multiple bags into my house daily and get DoorDash several times a week sometimes a day. I once noticed a DoorDash item on my next door neighbors front porch but that’s about it just once.
Recently, I noticed that this was some kind of phenomenon and other people were noticing that they also hadn’t noticed people in their neighborhood being in groceries either or it seems to happen to many people or is something they recognize.
im not saying it’s a simulation just that never witnessing a single neighbor on your entire street being a single bag out of their car in 25 years?! its definitely so strange.

The Matrix(First timer)
I just wanted to hear everyone else’s thoughts and experiences when they first saw the original trilogy of the Matrix. It is currently storming where I am, so I thought why not try something new? So I currently have the first movie queued up. I’ll probably update/edit this after finishing all three and before heading into Resurrection. In the meantime, please feel free to drop a comment below. I’m really interested.

The Thirteen Floor (1999) PRe matrix film. Very cyberpunk story. The simulation theory is amazing

Even though Reloaded and Revolutions are considered inferior to the first, 2003 still felt like a good year for Matrix fans because they had a lot going on.

In these times, there's not a day that goes by where this line doesn't cross my mind.
In a gallows amusement kind of way.

multidirectional matrix rain html
I was hoping to get some extra eyes and ears on the byproduct of my latest ASCII based endeavors, an audio reactive, XYZ axis based multidirectional matrix rain HTML.
I have a lot of spare time on my hands....
any feedback would be helpful, always looking for new or creative upgrade or optimizations opportunities, or just anything fun that could be visually appealing, like i was thinking of making a mouse pointer tracker in the system, so the rain drops are always converging on the mouse pointer where ever it is on the desktop.

Not nitpicking, but I just found this bit funny.
If it's not obvious yet, Morpheus stuck his katana onto the side of the truck "at arms length", even if you accommodate his upper torso's length, he couldn't have stuck that for as far as he did when he stood on it.

Did a singularity spawn the Matrix?
Isn’t it established in the sequels, sans the video game film, that they can’t get rid of The Matrix because “the real world” was just one of many possible worlds in it? Even though Neo is still the One.

Do the programs in The matrix have continuity?
Whenever neo sees the green rain code the programs are constantly changing. A pattern remains but the code just keeps flowing. Humans on the other hand do have some physicality and continuity because, they have to hook their actual brains and bodies to the program.
My question is is it the same for programs. Is there someplace where the programs are stored physically, and we just see what the physical program tells the code to write?

Here's another one for you guys
In the initial frame, we see one of the twins phasing through the floor, in front of Trinity and Morpheus. Trinity goes ahead along with the Keymaker while Morpheus stops and takes a katana. At this point in time, the twin who was phasing through the floor should have materialized above ground, putting him between Morpheus and Trinity/Keymaker. But instead we see Morpheus reunited with Trinity and the Keymaker.

Everyone who also thinks if the Second Renaissance had ever become adapted in proper series form (or as a dedicated movie), the second part would be waaaaaay to brutal for anyone to pull through?
I always found it sad we got such an important part of the franchise adapted as comic and in two short films only, since it seemed like there would have been enough potential for a full-length TV series starting at the development of AI, following its integration into the workforce, the point of technical singularity and ultimately the development of artificial 'consciousness' leading up to the machines claiming their own rights and cities...
The Second Renaissance laid out a pretty good base for an extension to the franchise, yet it was never really fleshed out.
And partially I feel this is due to the second part just being so disturbing (like, we literally see how the machines operate on the human body / brain to implement the "jacks", dead humans being 'disposed' of, children being abducted and connected to the pods, and so on) that it would be at the very least a difficult take to pull off, and likely end up becoming R rated lol.
Still, regarding what developments we currently experience in the real world, I feel like a revive of the first part at least – which is much more harmless and actually relevant to current gen AI – as live action movie or series would be a very interesting trope to explore...
Any thoughts on this?

“Listen to me, Coppertop”
Question for those of you who saw this in the theater in ‘99: what did you think this line by Switch meant, if anything? I remember my dumbass 17 year old brain thinking, “haha she’s calling him a pretty boy.” It took me way too many rewatches to clock the Duracell reference later. 🙃
Edit: keep in mind the reveal about humans being batteries hasn’t happened yet when Switch says this. So if you got this at age 6 and 10, good on you 💪🏾

In-universe explanation and theory of why Zion is mostly comprised of people of color.
So I see sometimes in YouTube videos about the matrix some people talking and asking about Zion and why most of the citizens and characters are seemingly mostly of African American descent. So I actually thought about it from the movies exposition and other behind the scenes sources and I think I found the most logical answer that has nothing to do with Hollywood or diversity cast and is purely in universe explanation.
We know from the architect that there were 5 iterations of the Matrix and the events of the movies take place in the 6th iteration and Neo is the 6th "the One" and the previous chosen ones had to fulfill the bogus prophecy the Oracle set to reset the Matrix before it becomes unstable. The Architect explained to Neo the role of the "One" is to reach the source, reset the Matrix, the machines wiping out Zion, but then the "One" has to choose 23 people to take out of the Matrix to repopulate Zion, 16 females and 7 males.
So with that knowledge, it's easy to assume that Neo's predecessor (the 5th "One") could've been an African American who chose most of the people to be other African Americans and maybe handful of other races, thus leading the Zion we know in the movies being mostly populated with people of color and mixed race and then other white people and other races gradually being taken out of the Matrix with time. It's also known that the role of Neo was offered to Will Smith, but he rejected, so I like to imagine that in universe, the 5th "One" could've been Will Smith.
