most spoiler filled thread ever prolly.

Rubberbanding is used in a lot of different contexts, but is chiefly about arbitrarily keeping things "even" so that the conclusion of whatever you're doing is as climactic as possible. The Blue Shell for instance is a Rubberbanding mechanic, or the mechanic in Street Fighter where attacks deal...

this actually looks really good. It's a shame. They should have just got the entire game made, then right at the end go NUTS with shit like this thread, all over the place, release it for free, get as many people to get it as possible, and put a "donate" button in the game itself. Cease and...

they'll get new lore I'm sure. Probably just a reworking of the old lore into a larger scope. and honestly, it's lore in league of legends.

you might possibly get sentience inside the calculation. but once the calculation's done, the result it farts out would not be complex enough to have sentience. Quantum Computers are only useful for dealing with problems which it's said regular computers would take a ridiculously long time...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IcrBqCFLHIY&list=PLkahZjV5wKe_dajngssVLffaCh2gbq55_ Veritasium did a wonderful series that went through how quantum computers work and they they are effective at doing. seeing that the article mentions 1000 qubits. According to one of those videos, when...

There are also several non-basic lands with basic land types that can be pulled with the fetch lands. There are also cards that combo interestingly with them due to the way they leave play, cause other lands to come into play, and also don't come into play tapped. They're tricky cards that have...

they're not saying that the universe is a 2d hologram. The idea is that in 3d space, a 3d black hole has an event horizon that "transcribes" for a lack of a better word everything that falls into it into a 2d plane at the event horizon. the idea is that if this were the case with the...

they pay canadian taxes, other then that, I doubt anything's changed. although the prospect of a donut whopper fills my colon with glee

http://curious.astro.cornell.edu/question.php?number=714 This covers it at a fairly easy level http://blogs.scientificamerican.com/degrees-of-freedom/2011/07/25/what-do-you-mean-the-universe-is-flat-part-i/ That goes on a little deeper...

you're using the term "flat" to mean something falling upon a two dimensional line. When talking about 3d space, flat basically means what you think of as 3d space.. it basically just stretches out in all of the directions we can concieve of (up down, left right, forward back, and all the...

In every instance that I used the term "size" in this thread, I was referring to its radius in relation to its center of gravity. My head hurts too much to consider what I might have meant if I didn't mean what I meant. If that makes any sense at all. lol

while everything could be wrong (we could all just be brains in jars, living in a simulated universe), I'm just saying that the cube square law isn't a postulation about some strange quirk of reality. It's a mathematical law, and a fundamental feature to working in 3 dimensions. And really, the...

the cube square law is a law. if it stopped working it wouldn't be a law, it's just a quirk of living in 3d space.... Something that's a million times larger but a million times more massive is just LESS dense then our intuition would make it out to be... I think. Honestly I might be wrong...
