    Nah. I don't think they'd be remotely interesting enough.

    Absolutely.

    But I'd watch alone. Most definitely alone.

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    Not at all. Random images and sensations that bear no resemblance to reality? No. I have enough solid happy real memories, without watching fiction.

    No need. Because most of my dreams are nightmares… I remember them all.

    I’d have to say no, I really don’t have any wish to watch my dreams back, let alone have a chip inserted in my head.

    I might consider having a chip inserted in my head that would do something useful though, like improving my visual acuity for example.

    How much memory would a dream take up in on a device?

    I'd say the memory is limitless

    I've never once remembered a dream in my life, so it would be pretty boring viewing.

    Eat a small piece of cheddar cheese just before bed and you will remember it

    I'm OK with not remembering dreams tbh, I don't know any different so it doesn' bother me. I read a while back about a condition called aphantasia, where people can't visualise things. I'm pretty sure I have that as I can't picture things in my mind at all, and I'm awful at remembering faces, which is part of it. I'm guessing the dreams thing is part of it.

    Sure why not. They might provide some inspiration and ideas that can be applied to real life
