Originally posted by Lanny Honest question: how does a violation of Bell's inequality in the experiment described demonstrate what you're saying it does? Accepting that the outcome of some physical phenomena has no historical cause doesn't seem to make the findings described here any less odd.
Could you please narrow it down to what specific part of my post you are confused about?
And I'm not sure what you mean about the findings being odd.
What I'm saying is, is that there are certain completely random quantum events that also may affect macroscopic phenomena. One can conjure up some examples, but it's true that they are rare phenomena.
For example, if you go to Alaska to see the aurora borealis, those patterns are entirely determined randomly, based on electron emissions by the sun (solar wind). Perhaps if you see these lights, it affects or changes your behaviour in some way in the future; perhaps on one night there's a particularly large burst of solar radiation that causes a flare in the aurora in a way that's particularly beautiful and it creates a perfect moment for you to kiss the girl sitting next to you, and it changes the course of your life forever. Or perhaps that night the aurora is still beautiful but not particularly so, and it doesn't do that. Or maybe something else happens that triggers the neurons in your brain to affect you behaviour some other way.
Similarly, atomic decay is entirely random. Perhaps one day you're taking your now-wife, who is pregnant, to Hawaii. While you are in the upper atmosphere, some atmospheric radiation strikes your unborn baby and triggers some mutation that turns him into Superman. This could even possibly affect the tree of life, how evolution takes place.
So no, the idea that the universe is deterministic... it's really not very well supported. Perhaps one day we will find out that that is the case, but currently, this is where the weight of science seems to stand. -

2017-02-08 at 2:41 AM UTC in teh retraded thred herppppp slober fuk glum editshinI've been having trouble sleeping recently too, not getting to sleep til gone 6am and only getting 4 or 5 hours max, of which I'd wake up a few times during that.
I put it down to the lack of downers in my body. I've also noticed I've started to get what I assume is low level anxiety, heart seems to be beating slightly faster and a general, well, anxious feeling. But I've never had anxiety before in my life so I don't see why it'd start now.
I also haven't eaten a proper meal for quite a few days. Not since, dunno, probably last Thursday or so -
2017-02-08 at 2:14 AM UTC in Isnt gravity just a density specific feild?magnetic field is dependent on V E L O C I T Y bro which is hella cool b/cuz gravity is like only dependent on mass and distance and stuff

Originally posted by Captain Falcon It's not a matter of directly getting anyone upset. The point isn't "wow, Captain Falcon is being gang stalked. I love Captain Falcon and this makes me upset because he doesn't deserve it". The objective is generally one of two things:
1. There are a lot of people who think they are above being fooled and take this (and themselves) too seriously. Taking these people for a ride and then dropping the truth on them generally generates initial butthurt, then immense luls, then in the long run either permanently un-jams their head from their ass (I.e. they stop being super cereal about themselves), because of the fact of having been japed on.
2. There are people who are more willing to believe and don't take everything so seriously and cynically, and they get a cool bit of writing and a laugh out of it at the end of the day, no harm, no foul. The pleasure is derived from taking then for a ride, then having a laugh at the end.
So don't take this shit too seriously.
Oh, I didn't know you were such a philanthropist. Thank god we have people like you here to help us along with our lives by posting fake stories about yourself for us to become better people by reading. -

Originally posted by AngryOnion I would thank you but upon doing a few google searches and reading some obscure forums, that chemical can relieve the symptoms of tinnitus,but at the cost of loosing all sense of smell.
No thanks,I would like to keep my sense of smell.
But I will hit that little "thank"button everyone seams to like so much.
It's only temporarily so if you had really bad symptoms you take a dose and you are fine. -
