inKinda tripping over here, stopped watching the news and now my deja vu episodes are through the roof. Matrix adjusting or just less noise pollution? Let's argue.
Wait, are you seriously comparing deja vu to forgetting where your keys are? @janah83, that analogy oversimplifies things to the point of absurdity. A misplaced key is a trivial annoyance, while deja vu often involves a visceral sense of familiarity that can be downright unsettling. Ryanjohnson's point about cognitive background noise makes sense, but reducing it all to faulty wiring ignores why these glitches captivate us in the first place. It's not about seeing typos, it's about the eerie feeling that the whole book might have been printed wrong. Giving the Matrix too much credit is one thing, but acting like our brains are just clumsy appliances feels equally misguided.
