Perhaps the brain acts as a kind of computer interface, recieving information rather than containing it. idk

The physical brain is just a signal translation device.
The consciousness (incl. the subconscious mind) are not stored in the physical brain.
The physical brain’s only purpose is for you to be able experience yourself in a physical world and making a physical experience.
It is not “you”, and neither are “you” stored anywhere in there.
This man was able to operate almost normally because his consciousness was still there and the remaining physical brain had enough functionality to still translate and download enough signals down into the physical dimension.
Certain physical body’s function’s are also operated by the physical body’s own morphic field, so these functions can operate without having an intact physical brain too.

Physically, the brain manages to rewire & re-organizes itself to keep all normal cognitive functions.
Secondly, the brain is Computer HDD but the mind / consciousness is Cloud Drive.
Even if your HDD space is crap, you can still access the internet to the cloud drive.

- IQ= 75 (84 being his verbal IQ not global)
- His brain didn’t disappear, it’s just compressed due to the swelling.
His neurons are still there, just packed densely and the mechanical pressure leads to growth factor increase facilitating the re-wiring. Again, it didn’t disappear, it’s compressed.
If there is a war and they send everyone aged 18-50yo, they still can’t legally send him due to his retardation. He’s more likely to accidentally kill his teammates than enemies.
He can’t work at Mcdonalds and most volunteering jobs would be harder.
Most likely, being France, he works in a Townhall somewhere doing nothing in a small town. There are lots of ways to absorb the not too bright into the working population.
The article is cherrypicking the fact, but there is a link to more data.
Now, if instead of being compressed, packed densely, 90% of his brain was indeed gone, he would be dead. Also the 90% figure was not given by scientist and it’s obvious that you can’t add 10 times the volume left. It’s exaggerated.
Still dude is retarded and he has other health issues.
Look at the picture, maybe 3x more volume would fill his brain. 50% shrunking, increased density can happen using drugs in localized areas without massive impact. Again, dude is retarded
Literally 75 is Forrest Gump level IQ. Dude is Forrest Gump except he got to wire and learn stuff before he had this issue. Being average or above average gave a head start because the skill wiring is already there. Now compressed but still there in some ways.
If he had to start today, his life would likely be many times worsts.
Keep in mind that it wasn’t a direct head trauma, a slow accumulation of CSF over years allows for progressive adaptation throughout the evolution of his affliction.
Also the verbal areas are less impacted they are also the less crushed.
Now they’ve been draining it, but if it kept accumulating he would have died very early and that’s still likely. You can only squeeze neurons so much and keep losing functions.
Just to tell you, if you smoke weed every day for years your prefrontal cortex can compact itself by 2. Less volume but not retarded necessarily

I didn’t know about the weed issue. I’ve got a friend or two that smoke a ton. Any articles on it you approve of?

Your knowledge is incredible.
I wonder how fast you think about stuff lol.
And what are your usual paths you take in thinking about anything
The way you branch out i mean, your style of thought

It’s very basic stuff
I’ve been keeping stuff to myself more and more. Talking with or listening to people I go « oh right, I’m the weirdo, I use brain fields and I hang out with a wizard ». A lot of it is the difference between imagining and experiencing all types of modifications and magic. It’s not just words then, it’s real and tangible.
All these years, spamming brain fields, NFTs, every single Gumroad, items, off the shelf or private brain fields. Every single day. For half a decade now. Plus talking with Dream about stuff where he lays it all down.
Anyway, it’s been a wild journey. I’ve definitely become more introverted.

You should be able to find some easily, it kills some neurons but it also stimulate more connections that compensate.

Will read and respond later when I’m done doin stuff
Came online to see if you responded lol
(I knew it was so)

Your knowledge is still incredible
While what you wrote may be some what basic to this genre off information, you applied it in a way like it rolls of your tongue, safe to assume you know deeper intricacies, I know you do actually lol
I know what you mean
Maybe in a next life they’ll know what you experience first hand
Or you can put em on
But that’s a journey of a wise method of sharing info at the right pace and the right time, an investment of time and effort
And that’s if it interests you to do so, which I suppose it only does for particular people who resonate with you but I may be going out on a limb here
Me too, but now I’m coming out of my shell lol. My reasons are much different for sure, I will explain tomorrow on a journey thread I’ll make… I still don’t wanna be touched by people, let’s see what happens in the future. (I’ll explain later lol)
It’s lonely at the top but I’m happy to see you there none the less, building upon the very mountain you find yourself on top of
