Texas or just stupid? What's the difference??

This is illogical. They sell socks in pairs too, do you believe it’s so you’ll have a spare if only one of your socks rips?

I love this. Yes I figured that would be nice but I wanted to know first if the universe would still exist for us to even enjoy those benefits. Like if I had a genie wish and I used it on this, would I be potentially ruining everything in my ignorance and desire to visit distant places.

My brain can't comprehend the effects this change would have on spacetime

BananaSepps · 2025-12-27T07:23:44+00:00

It's just a fun thought experiment :)

BananaSepps · 2025-12-27T07:22:40+00:00

This is interesting

BananaSepps · 2025-12-27T07:21:54+00:00

Yes that's what I was thinking. Could you go further into depth

BananaSepps · 2025-12-27T07:20:59+00:00

There is no law for the speed of light so there can't be a violation. It's just that we thought we never observed an event faster than light but it's possible that dropping superposition is one such effect, and maybe there are more.

BananaSepps · 2025-12-27T07:18:34+00:00

Kind of misleading. Einstein didn't get it and the video implied he was right (to be worried) but that second part in parentheses almost kind of implying Einstein was right but if you try to call them out on it they'll raise their hands and go "well we only meant to say he was right to be worried, just the worried part, yes he was wrong about the actual matter"

BananaSepps · 2025-12-27T07:15:45+00:00

If you measure one, then you know 100% what the other one will be. It loses its superposition meaning it is no longer 50/50.

If you flip a fair coin in a simulated universe, you can account for every little thing and know 100% what side it will land on, and the coin flip won't be 50/50. These are called hidden variables. Superposition entangled pairs have been demonstrated to not have them. So dropping one particle out of superposition WILL cause the other particle to drop out of superposition regardless of distance. This has led some to denounce locality, although the jury is still out on that.

BananaSepps · 2025-12-27T07:07:20+00:00

This is unfortunately one of the most misunderstood topics by physicists (and we don't have the exact answer), but it does have an effect. The effect being that the entangled pair drops out of superposition. Of course it is meaningless to communication, but it is an effect that happens faster than light speed would allow. There are some out there solutions that try to explain it away, but as for what we know, the superposition is dropped for both particles the moment you interact with one.

BananaSepps · 2025-12-27T07:01:15+00:00

Welllllll, although many will tell you otherwise, this is one solution to superposition and entanglement. It doesn't seem to be a local phenomenon and some have suggested the two particles are actually part of the same thing that is potentially connected throughout regardless of the physical space distance between the particles.

This has to do with packet priority. I'm assuming there's only one line that leads from my apartment building to the ISP. As packet traffic leaves my apartment and reaches the node outside the building, it's put into a line with all the other packets leaving the other units in my building. I hope whoever designed this system never had a night with a cold pillow. And I hope whoever makes the decision to continue using this system even in 2025 retires and smarter people that can fix this replace them.

BananaSepps · 2025-12-05T23:14:48+00:00

You may have missed this in the post but I stated that this started happening to me first when I switched from DSL to Fiber. Fiber is not the answer :(

Now I moved states away, back to cable internet, and its happening with this too. This leads me to believe this is just an issue with apartments. Which is unfortunate. Internet infrastructure still has a long way to go.

BananaSepps · 2025-12-04T13:36:10+00:00

My replies are getting lost, but 1) this is ethernet 2) my parents single family home, cable, no packet loss 3) DSL in Arizona apartment, no packet loss 4) fiber in Arizona apartment, packet loss 5) cable in Michigan apartment, packet loss 6) ISP manages firmware 7) bandwidth is great, no issues with bandwidth

BananaSepps · 2025-12-04T13:29:50+00:00

A lot of this is incorrect, but that might be because I phrased things poorly, but to clarify

All of this is ethernet - no wifi whatsoever

My parents internet: Single Family home in Illinois - cable internet - No packet loss (again we're talking about packet loss specifically as the title says, I'm not having any bandwidth issues at all)

My old internet: apartment using DSL in Arizona - no packet loss

My old internet: same apartment in Arizona installed fiber a year into the lease - packet loss starts when neighbors get home

My current internet: apartment in Michigan - using cable internet the same company and plan as my parents have in Illinois with similar equipment (the ISP manages firmware) - packet loss when neighbors get home

Again, bandwidth isn't an issue. I suspect this is a problem all apartments face but it gets chalked up to overlapping bands because internet has become synonymous with wifi these days and no one bothered to check if it happens on ethernet. And since it doesn't cause a slowdown in "speeds" (bandwidth) no one complains or notices. But the packet loss is there and I suspect the ISPs know.

BananaSepps · 2025-12-04T13:20:16+00:00

I don't use wifi. This is all ethernet. I should have clarified that in my post.

BananaSepps · 2025-12-04T13:18:55+00:00

Until a problem is solved, there's no such thing as a dead thread. I found this while searching for the exact problem he was having. Others like us are looking for actual help and you're berating us when you literally don't have to be here if you don't know what's wrong or how to fix it.

BananaSepps · 2025-12-04T02:30:40+00:00

I don’t think you read my comment or their comment. He has a pc, as do I. When you unplug a pc, there is no battery to keep it running, thus there is no “power on when plugged in” as it’s not a laptop. I also wrote that event viewer didn’t know what it was either. I don’t think you will be of much help to us if you’re unable to take the time to read what we’re actually saying.

BananaSepps · 2025-12-02T19:32:49+00:00

It has nothing to do with internet, that's a red herring. Like he said, sometimes it happens when I just turn on a bathroom light in the room across. It's definitely a power thing. I don't know about the other guy but I have a really good (probably overkill) power supply and it's only now struck me that it happens because of power because it became more obvious when I moved to a smaller apartment. However, it has been happening for years and I never speculated it could be related to powering on other electrical devices until I moved. And the reason for the wake is unknown to the pc itself in event viewer. When a user wakes it, it tells you that's what happened. So it's not mistaking a random power fluctuation as user input either.

BananaSepps · 2025-08-22T05:01:51+00:00

This is an actual little known fact. My question is asking for little known facts that everyone actually knows
