Found a great bargain for a new fishing rig

Got my hands on a Pfluenger president rod and reel at a garage sale! So excited! Would like to purchase a baddy assay at a good price. But either way I'm excited to get a great new crappie rig for at least $4.

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?

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

    Error being blown out of your mouth is similar to DC ( direct current ) and that it's a continuous wave of air with frequency zero. While speaking is like AC ( alternating current), a longitudinal wave that moves back and forth at a variety of frequencies.

    Trying to learn about opensource Silicon manufacturing.

    I've wanted to contribute to open source projects for years. Ive contributed to a few things in the past, but my expertise just isn't in programing (I'm a physicist), so it's hard to contribute meaningfully. Recently, I've heard about some open source silicon manufacturing and I'm intrigued, this is something I think I could contribute to significantly. I know of LibreSilicon, but I want to learn about other projects as well, and are there good resources to learn about the current state of projects. Thought I'd see what y'all know.

    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?

  • Maximizing Fediverse Experience

    Sorry if this is the worng space for general fediverse quations. I am new to the fediverse, and I'm still getting used to it. I'm trying to figure out how to situate my experience. Do you typically use more than one account, or are you using Mastodon, PeerTube, etc with your lemmy account? If you use multiple accounts, do you have a leftest Mastodon instance you recommend? I ask lemmygrad.ml in particular because I want to make sure I'm tuned into leftest spaces well (who knows where I'd be if I initially joined Beehaw out of ignorance).
