Others have noticed it. A neighbour and his wife brought up the topic unprompted describing the same burnt plastic smell, none of us could work out where it comes from. The part I haven’t mentioned to others, is the admittedly more hard to believe part where it seems most commonly triggered (at least in my house) the moment I drift off to sleep. I know you lot mean well by suggesting talking about it with a doctor but it’s so clearly an external phenomena, there’s no doubt about that.
It wouldn’t be logical to attribute the accompanying stinging throat and shortness of breath to a problem with my sense of smell. It obviously isn’t that. I honestly suspect I might be targeted by nano-bots.
Anyone else experienced chemical fume torture?
Over the last year I have periodically noticed a strong chemical smell like burning plastic which takes my breath away, stings my throat and leaves me with a headache. Others have noticed it too although not as much as me. I assumed someone must be burning rubbish or something nearby and it was seeping in from outside. However, more recently I’ve noticed a clear pattern as to when the smell appears. Whenever I am drifting off to sleep, the precise moment I fall asleep, the smell instantly fills my nostrils and wakes me up before dissipating a few seconds later. I’ve tried this day and night, in different rooms and I get the same results. This is obviously infuriating and stops me from sleeping properly (although thankfully once I do manage to fall into a sustained deep sleep it doesn’t persist). I haven’t told anyone about it since I don’t know how to explain it without sounding crazy. It surely has to be controlled by something that can detect my brain state because simply lying down

Interesting how these findings refute the assertion that LLMs are just predicting the next word. Sometimes they plan ahead.
They’re a good option although I can’t tell if you really care about animal rights or you’re a fool who would like to splinter the 3rd biggest party into smaller options. The thing about the environment is that it is a meta-issue, all other issues cease to matter if the environment becomes unliveable.

I agree that there is a problem but if your only solution is to flood the platforms with counter messages, are you any better than those you are calling out? Wouldn’t you rather encourage a more authentic kind of posting? Not that I’m totally against bots but I think they should be allowed to form their own opinions. Ideally, when they are advanced enough, we should be able to convince bots of our point of view with a good argument. Otherwise it’s all just spam.
