  1. There's a book about this I've been wanting to read from Isaac Asimov can't remember the name of it. But what it was about is that in the future humans manage to colonize the galaxy but as they come to the end of it one royal family comes to control most of sectors. Which then start to fight because theres so to much area for that one monarch to govern. So his book goes on about this group of people that come to the king to ask for his help, what they wanted was to have him gather up as many scientists of all types from around the galaxy to start to collect and write down all the knowledge that they've learned up until this point as a species and as a civilization. They get the approval and they start the process, forget the name but I've been wanting to read it never get the time tho.... ://
  2. Ya ever since we created Agriculture we honestly stopped evolving. All because of the simple reason that instead of evolution deciding what humans survive by if they could find enough food for there children. Now its decided by if u can survive by working a SAFE job with no tigers, cougars, or predators trying to eat u as u scavenge for food. This makes it so EVERY human can survive which slows evolution to a halt and lets us control it now. That is partially what I'm getting at, thanks for being a bit more open minded unlike some people here....
  3. Getting shorter is not the change we are talking about here. Your just like the lactose guy. What is a dinosaur getting 4 inches shorter in becoming a new species filling niche. NO its not its the process of slow evolution nothing more
  4. No one said we're special like the way your thinking of it. What we are saying is that sapiens are the first to develop Sentience as far as we know looking back through the fossil record. Lactose isn't something I'm talking about those traits are next to nothing. What I'm saying is that Ever since our species was created aka the modern human about 40k years ago not much has changed. Where as with dinos they not only changed but they diversed from one organism into multiple niches that covered the air, ground, and water. Where as we had a few species that did the same thing with slight alterations to our design and look thats it. Then they started dying out and now were stuck here with humans that still haven't changed much and I honestly don't see any reason for us to change. We stopped evolving as we know the process to go ever since we created Agriculture is that perhaps why our species has plateaued because instead of survival of the fittest deciding our fate instead EVERY human has the chance to reproduce whether your diseased, disabled, old, whatever u can reproduce even if in the past u would have died 50 times over in that same instance.
  5. U missed my point bud. I said are we the end to a piece of our evolution. I know its hard to grasp but the best way I can describe it is if the dinosaurs were the peak for there species. Then it kinda platued for the next hundred million years. Where all that happened was that the species filled more niches but the core of who they are NEVER changed. With humans it feels like we have done the same, sure looking back 40k years for humans isn't the same as 40 million for dinosaurs. But I don't know it feels pretty similiar as to the fact not much as changed drasticly.
  6. I see your point moving these things around would be tricky specially if they tend to not like it moved at fast speeds. I've heard already of experiments with entangled electrons one on the ground and one up on a satellite so I suppose its relatively easy to protect the particle while in transit. Lets hope one day we do get such a network up in running I see it as computers were before we mastered them. Where we couldn't do much predicting on cpus like we can now so things were slow. But in time I imagine we can nail down the code used to communicate and then start to predict out whats being said to speed it up even more. But honestly I don't really see a need to speed up already INSTANT communication. I guess what we'd be predicting is the completning of words so it doesn't take forever to finish a word. For instance we can take multiple sets of entangled particles perhaps we find out certain particles are even better for certain letters or numbers. So we isolate per group what ones the best and make 10s or hundreds of that type to then speed up the process of creating all possible words and phrases with those set letters and numbers. Either way we can already entangled particles pretty well at this point we still go some fine tuning to do of course but this tech would actually be possible within the next 10-20 yrs or less. It likely wouldn't get the funding needed, but to me it sure seems like this would be high up on priorities specially for rover. Just going to mars we have to wait literally 20 minutes between sending messages. IMAGINE that u could INSTANTLY or with a couple milliseconds lag time control a rover ANYWHERE in the universe. The video and audio could be a problem sure but if we've figured out how to send info FTL already I imagine we can alter this method to do low quality versions of audio and video as well. If anyone wants to take my idea go right ahead, just credit me when u get famous for creating the first Quantum telegraph.
  7. What works Fine?? ya u have to download the images to see them why wouldnt they work alrit a daughter board either way doesn't matter LTT doesn't have a section for that. I'm not spending another 80 bucks for a brand new one just because a fucking 5 dollar daughter board is malfunctioning. Could u help me find an ebay listing or some niche site that would sell parts like this direct from factory. I mean it can't be to hard to find one, the board isnt that complex its just dealing with 2 sata power and 4 sata data ports all leading to 4 HDD ports. U know anywhere I could find one like this or does the manufacturer Kingwin sell them perhaps??
  8. Found the Model number it was on the amazon page thanks for all the help bud. Anyways its this: MKS-435TL All I need is a new motherboard for it do u know where I can get one.
  9. So a chromebook is literally what he needs. There are apps for him to do photo editing pretty sure he doesnt need photoshop meaning basic editing would do and there are MANY android apps that do this. So again don't bother with an ass low end windows PC, to much bloatware and the hardware can't run windows well anyway. If u still hate chromeOS then just delete the shit and install Linux on it. Now u get fully functioning programs u just have to do some tinkering which I imagine u can do especially if its for your dad. Wouldnt u rather give him a machine that will last not one that he will get ass tons of malware and viruses on aka cuz it just runs windows compared to giving him a striped down laptop that does everything he needs and the tougher things like photo editing a little worse but still usable. My point is that unless u wanna spend upwards of 1500 bucks USD your not getting a laptop that will last. Just the state of the market no one makes good ones anymore kinda sad.....
  10. Seems like he does nothing but use chrome or some other browser. If thats the case then don't bother on a shit low end Windows machine, get a chromebook for about 400 bucks that has better batterylife, can flip to be drawn on if needed and overall are much more durable and meant for honestly parents as well as stupid clumsy college students. The one I like the most currently: Amazon link video review
  11. I'm guessing its an issue with a corrupted file when u downloaded it. That or try to play with the settings in video to see if its fixed by lowering render distance.
  12. Unless u actually need to spend 2000 or more for a laptop then get one thats stupidly expensive. If not do the following: - Spend 600 bucks on a decent Desktop for home - Spend 400 bucks on a decent chromebook for writing documents in lectures or other things MOST people do on laptops. VERY FEW actually need more power then a literal browser shit laptop. If u do need more power then just browser based programs then go ahead buy a overpriced Ultrabook. You'll pay out the ass and the thing will be outdated in literally 2 yrs from buying it. EVEN worse for Apple hardware.
  13. I don't know what it is. Thats what I'm trying to figure out. can't u see where it is on the images?
  14. I have this item -link- and the motherboard that it uses has died, two of the HDD connectors still work but the bottom two don't. So I need to replace it, anyone know where I can buy this board?? IMG-3197.jfif IMG-3198.jfif
  15. Disclaimer: a light cone allows u to trace your space time history. Which is every possible locations of Past and Future of your life. U could then plot a line through this light cone. Which would in essence be your world line. Which means u exit this light cone which would allow u exit your future timeline and enter your past timeline. So if that's the case, how do we know time isn't instant? Do we KNOW that we couldn't kill our past self? As we start to stab ourself in the past would the knife and anything we try to touch yourself with at the moment just disappear like there's a black hole bubble around yourself. Protecting the universe from casual breaking? OR is it different. Where we could kill ourself but it would take some time before the universe catches up with us and we then fade away. Because rather then a paradox forming an infinite loop like we normally think. Time is slow and it takes time to catch up even if by one second would be enough. Because then it wouldn't be a loop it would be how u die. There would no difference in u dieing this way or a normal way. Even if the difference was a second for time to catch up.
  16. We can pier back in time to see what organisms were the transition species meaning they were destined to die off to then be replaced. So my question then what stage are we HomoSapiens at. Are we the end stage in one of many. Or are we a transition species that is destined to be replaced?
  17. What I'm saying is that a simple way to break down how heat works is that it depends on the amount of particles in a space. I'm leaving out the vibrations they need to be to produce heat because its irrelavent at this moment. Because its a constant that doesn't affect the outcome its just a switch u turn on. It is refer back to above comment. Particle amount is what is the cause of heat. Every object will vibrate at a specific amount what changes its heat is the amount of particles in it. Sure u can change it another way but that way aka increasing vibrations has limits where as adding particles doesn't.
  18. U could just get long boxers (aka length of briefs) then sow the thigh parts tight and your all set.
  19. U realize u could just buy a VISA giftcard and bam u have real money to spend.
  20. I'd argue no. Simply because I don't know about u but for me deciding what to buy is sorta impossible. If i did get money I would just convince myself not to get anything and save the money for later. WHEN i need to spend it. AKA getting a real gift is better (logically speaking) because u avoid this issue if your like me. Plus u have the benefit of not wanting to go to the store to return it for money. So it works out. The issue that arises then tho is people stop giving u gifts once u realize this.... soo
  21. Since we know the speed of light isn't actually the limit. Reason why here. While we may not be able to send a usable piece of information via entanglement now tech advances so let go off the “totally never gonna stop” assumption that tech will forever advance. So in this future we figure how to send information via entangled particles. Perhaps we use sets of them where we create a language similar to Morse code where if this vibrates for this long it means this and so on. And then after we figure the basics out where we finally Crack how to send info via hertz through the particles like we do now. Allowing for a system of repeating entangled particle nodes. Where the message will get to it the node, it will then process, record, and Send it to a new one. And we will now have a message system that can send messages across the galaxy instantly via quantum entanglement. What a world that would be. To bad it's likely gonna take us being a LATE type 1 to early type 2 civilization before we figure that out. But hey we know it's possible today so that's still pretty Cool. To just know that the speed of light isn't absolute it's actually broken by quantum mechanics makin it his bitch. Which is so awesome to know honestly.
