Show HN: Hallucinate – Massively Multiplayer Online Rave (opens in new tab)

However there may be other ways. There might be Facebook groups that advertise raves in your area for example. Event websites, local blogs. You may or may not end up in a good and fun one, but you might end up meeting someone who can point you in the right direction.

One problem you might encounter is age. I find it funner to go to age appropriate events. If you’re in your 30s for example, you probably don’t want to party with 20 year olds. And electronic music culture is old enough that at this point you have people in their 50s still going to raves and doing drugs. So however old or young you are, don’t let that be the barrier.

Molly is something you can only get from a dealer, unfortunately. There’s a site called RollSafe[1] that seems to have decent information on how to take it safely.

Connecting with people who have taken Molly is easy though. Just come up to them and offer them a friendly hug.

The next best thing to do is talk with people in the scene and find out what they consider a trustworthy source. Any single person trying to offer you pills is a potential scammer or worse, you need to verify from other sources whether they're legit.

There's probably a better than 50% chance you'll get something close enough to what you want regardless, because incentives are aligned with everyone having a good time. But just like everywhere else, bad actors will always exist.

Secondly, since you're presenting this as a portfolio entry, I have some open, honest feedback. I quickly reviewed the repository and there are some pretty major orange-red flags that would dissuade employers from reaching out. Some of them include:

- Lack of coherent repository structure. All files under src/ with no sense of modularity

- The commit messages are very poor. Messages like "cool" and "jump jump" and "perf" do not provide any context to anyone outside of yourself (and probably not even you will remember what those changes were days/weeks from now)

- There are magic numbers everywhere. The biggest offender I found was in shaders.ts

There are more but those are the top ones I saw from my quick review. Again this isn't meant to discourage you. I wanted to provide the feedback to help you be more successful with potential employers. Cheers!

My observation is that we were just bored a lot. It has been a long time since young people have been as bored as we were back then.

Totally different decade, but my 90s high school experience was very similar to the movie Dazed and Confused. It’s odd how similar those experiences were versus what has come with the tech disruption of youth.

With that said, not everyone lives in locations where these sort of parties are accessible, for some it's multiple hours away and not always doable. I'm happy both exists, but obviously, prefer in-person events myself any day of the week, and if people haven't experienced it before, they definitely should :)

Kind of fun and interesting how the two electronic music scenes are very similar, but things like that remind me how different it is in say Europe than the US, even though the vibes are obviously similar and more or less the same, just way more implicit, not so "Look like this and do that".

It was much easier to get used to this than figure out a custom lefthanded setup.
