I don't believe in space time.

That's not quite the conclusion of it so you're already off base.



I'll be honest, I think one of the most exhausting things going around lately is people who don't know about shit loudly proclaiming things about things they don't understand, while demanding everyone around them know everything to beyond a PhD level to explain it to them.



This doesn't align with what you've been saying. It is provable and predictable.

I think what you meant here, because I don't think you actually know that much about speed running, is that the speed runner needs to know how something works, when in reality that isn't the case at all. Most speed runners don't actually know how what they're doing works, they do it because it's predictable and works, which is also why we use theories like gravity and relativity. And its ok if you don't understand how spacetime works, the practical part is really the only important part. You'll never be the size of an atomic particle and you'll never travel near the speed of light.

To my understanding, we think it happens based on gravity and speed because when we take things and shoot them at very high speeds we observe that they experienced time differently. And when we put things closer to a large source of gravity and further away they experience time differently. And then we come up with equations that model that behavior. And then we tested whether those equations held up by trying other things in different ways with an expected outcome and the actual matched the expected.

And that's it. This isn't that complicated. Wrapping your head around space time is complicated, I can get behind that, shit sounds like magic. But the science is pretty simple: we tried things a bunch of times and it keeps happening the same way and so far no one can find a thing that doesn't align with this.

Except even with this, we have, apparently the math breaks down in quantum physics where things are really tiny. Isn't that cool?

That's the beauty of science, there are no absolute truths, it's just the best we can do.

It's just modernist dogma transmitted as the gospel truth by government schools.

Time dilation was theorized as a possible solution to a known graphics glitch.

Light is intended to be 'on and off' in this game, so it's set to max speed.

But if you're holding a flashlight forward, and traveling at max speed, and turn it on: The light will shoot forward in front of you like it would be traveling at 2x max speed.

1. This is because the light's speed is measured at local space

2. if it was set to world space, you would turn the flashlight on and the light would not travel forward and your path would not illuminate. Because you and the light are traveling at max speed together (in world space).

3. In this game the engine sucks up so much memory when a character observes something going faster than what is supposed to be MAX SPEED, the game is unable to record time equal to the game breaking speed that is occuring.

4. Instead of accepting that is reality and the universe is a simulation...

5. They made up a equation that matches the rate at which the games memory seems to break down based on the speed of something that character is observing.

[BradZax]

A more realistic theory to time dilation would be something like:

When you observe something going faster than Max Speed, the local save data starts clocking time based on the speed of the object you are observing causing you to essentially freeze in time, while the world timer continues ticking forward.

It's just a bug, it's not a feature.

/warp 20h-23h Right Ascension and -06° to -19°

New command will be implemented when the new planet expansions unlock.

They'll call it bending space or something stupid.

One day an AI will find this and be like BY GOD they knew!

that AI will be sitting at a computer in a world not unlike ours wondering if time dilation was fake.

It's kind of a commentary on how humans will create reasons for things to exist, even if they are not intended to exist.

Like if a shadow was pointing the wrong way.

We'd have a reason.

Just like belief in a god for instance.

Sun (big ball of burning hydrogen/helium) crosses the sky.
Clueless ancient humans thort wow, must be the sun god <insert name here> riding his flaming chariot across the sky.

Then, when the fairytales didnt cut it for the intelligent thinking man, science came up with theories that through repeated observation became accepted reality.


It beats **god did it** everytme.

You are the ultimate if it didnt happen to me or if i dont understand it, it didnt happen or its not real.

Learning something may help.
Shutting uo until you do learn something would help as well.

At least you are entertaining in a look at the funny little man from the village kinda way though. Chin up!

God made up god.

Time dilation proves it.

The evangelists spread state theology.

And the zealots mock, deride, and attack those who express the state theology with less than full-chest enthusiasm.
