  • Blowing air out of your mouth, like blowing out a birthday candle, is just a DC form of talking.

  • I understand, it seems we don't agree but thank you for participating in the discussion.

  • Blowing air out of your mouth, like blowing out a birthday candle, is just a DC form of talking.

  • I would argue that the points you make strengthen my analogy, because all of them can also be said of DC electrical current.

  • Does faster than light travel violate causality? Why/Why not? How?

  • This argument, as far as I know, relies on the nature of time dilation. You see as your velocity increases closer and closer to the speed of light, time itself begins to slow down. This is not an analogy or some fancy math trick, this is a real thing you can measure in the lab. As you get closer and closer to the speed of light time slows more and more. Such that as you reach the speed of light (again this is physically impossible at least for anything with mass) you can think of time as stopping. So for light or anything that moves at the speed of light they're kind of isn't such a thing as time, but I digress.

    So (again even though it's actually impossible), what happens as you start to go faster than light? Does this trend continue? If it does that would mean that time starts to reverse. And once you see that faster than light travel might imply time reversal, it should be easier to understand how this would violate causality. Because how do you get event A caused by event B when event B was before even A?

  • Speech, like all sound, is a wave that moves back and forth parallel to the direction of motion. This is the context that I describe it as AC.

  • DC as in direct current, while AC is alternating current.

  • I don't understand you point. Is what way is talking like frequency modulation?

  • Maximizing Fediverse Experience

  • I understand. tilde.zone looks to be into linux, which I'm definitely into as well, so I'll probably try it out. I'm not even looking of for a super political instance, just not posts celebrating gay women who are drone pilots (or something else who knows, and yes that's an actual post I saw).

  • Maximizing Fediverse Experience

  • Thank you. I appreciate your input.

    Any instances you'd recommend that are leftest? I initially joined a mastodon instance (then tried using lemmy, it was confusing, but consistent with your description of how they interact), but there was enough neoliberalism that it might have just as well been @wasnt_obama.great.

  • Maximizing Fediverse Experience

  • Thanks for the information. Part of me thinks that an app and/or interface that could include multiple formats would be great, but I'm under no illusion that that's not a monumental ask. Wouls you advise just making multiple accounts for multiple instance types?
