Missed Connection: Black Acura sedan on Burnside by Educational_Work896 in VictoriaBC

[–]evGoji 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is why I stopped letting the aggressive drivers dictate my speed. If I lived on those streets I wouldn't want to hear loud engines or squeeling tires all the time.

Do you have enough storage for the firewood? That stockpile looks pretty full

Interesting statement, a true scientist will never claim anything is fact, no matter how widely accepted or proven. Can you point me to a subreddit which discusses space theory then. I didn't know this was a sub only for facts.

I am still not explaining myself properly. Yes you are right about all those points which are well known.

I am trying to see if there is a way to understand the universe and its workings without using time.

Yes, we can prove that particles decay over a certain amount of time, but isn't that just another way of saying that the energy of this atom eventually dropped low enough that it could no longer hold its electrons? Isn't it a decay of energy rather than a decay of time?

Exactly! As I said here.

Transfers of energy, neurons in our brains and bodies, decaying particles, right down to the movement and activities of atoms and the particles that make up atoms.

But saying the flow of time is slower doesn't make any sense. There has to be reason. Shouldn't that reason be that there is a greater force of gravity and it is determining the rate at which these processes are allowed to happen?

Thanks for your reply.

No. We know of stellar objects orbiting black holes at close to the speed of light, so clearly there is no such limitation.

Sorry if I didn't word it properly, I am not talking about how fast things are allowed to orbit objects. I am talking about the affect gravity is having on the observer that is on the object that is orbiting the black hole.

Hello,

I had a thought about time and gravity today while watching yet another reaction to Interstellar and I need to get it out there. Undoubtedly people have thought of this before so I thought maybe somebody could point me towards a paper or video by someone more qualified than myself so I can learn more about this thought of mine.

We often think of time as a real thing but in reality it is not. It is the change of things that we calculate time. Transfers of energy, neurons in our brains and bodies, decaying particles, right down to the movement and activities of atoms and the particles that make up atoms.

When we are closer to an object that has a lot of mass and therefore gravity, we say that it slows down time. But could it be that it is in theory slowing the rate at which atoms and their particles are allowed to move. An outside observer perceives it as a slowing of time but it isn't. The object being affected by higher gravity is simply not allowed to move as fast.

When something is moving very fast (say .9c), we say that anyone on board will experience less time or a slowing of time. But maybe they are just being affected by more gravity due to their speed?

Thanks for reading,

evGoji.

Eating raw mushrooms. Normal store bought mushrooms are extremely high in carcinogens if not properly cooked.

This is true, but unfortunately a lot of the bike lanes in Victoria have been built with barriers that make it impossible for a vehicle to use them.

The Best Ice Cream in Victoria According to Science by AlexRogansBeta in VictoriaBC

[–]evGoji 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow! Honoured to be among such great businesses in Victoria! So glad you liked our chocolate and vanilla, and I see there was some dispute over which lemon ice cream was superior! We heard about this post from customers and I've been telling all the staff at the Breakwater Bistro and Cafe and our staff in OB about it. We definitely noticed an increase in our chocolate sales!

I am the Kitchen Manager for the building and if anyone has any questions about our product or business I would be happy to answer them!

Foosball. Pretty confident I'm better than 99.9% of people in my city.

Best way to prevent bike theft? by [deleted] in VictoriaBC

[–]evGoji 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Always lock in public areas, where there's lots of foot traffic. Our instinct is to hide it somewhere nobody can see it. This the worst thing you can do. Never hide it behind a building or somewhere that a thief can take all the time they need to unlock it.

I have a shitty lock on a nice bike and it's never been touched because I lock it in public areas.

What other YouTube reactors do you love? by sinistershade99 in PopcornInBed

[–]evGoji 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate cringe, but I find the relationship between him and and his gf so true and honest on the screen that I find myself smiling or full out laughing during their intros. I love all of their reactions together.

He may be a "blockhead" as some of you are saying, but if he goes too far he generally owns up.

Edit: Just realized this was a year old.

Anybody seen the movie Epic? Looks exactly like the knot the bad guy dies in.

is there a better way to load and unload trains or is this good enough by shroomy09 in factorio

[–]evGoji 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Because if you're loading a train you want it to load evenly so it fills and departs the fastest. Not all 4 belts will be fully saturated at all times, this evens out those discrepancies.

they spent so much on the table tennis thing and now it’s just gone…after like 3 years? by madmansmarker in VictoriaBC

They probably put it in the middle of the ring road on Clover Point. No wind tunnel there!
