      Maybe that’s how YOUR brain works…

      Here’s a map of mine:

        Might be an issue with your instance/client. I mean it’s not super sharp but still perfectly readable.

            Something that I’ve found with Sync is that I needed to open the post itself first before I open the image. I assumed that Sync doesn’t fetch the uncompressed image until you do so

        Your lemmy client may limit the image resolution. Try opening it in the browser.

        That makes sense. When I zoomed in and saw how they labeled auditory processing I was suspicious.

        For what it is worth they did say they read a ton of neuroscience articles, although yes, engineer without a neuroscience background, so take this with a grain of salt. I think it’s at least a dude earnestly trying who did try to do his research.

          They did and I’m not against it in principle but it did read a bit like I understand this better than neuroscientists because its just like computer systems and my understanding from neuroscientists is that these sub systems they outline in papers are highly contested and more like how you would model their function rather than actually how they work.

          The one thing they seem to say consistently is that the analogy to computer systems work is flawed and the brain works very differently but it’s very far from anything I understand so take that with a pinch of salt.

          It’s not broken, either you have a problem connecting to my instance or your client doesn’t support gifs.
