Is Instant Teleportation Possible?

[Hashime]

What happens when DNA is deformed?

It may cause desease/a useles cell.
It causes other enzymes to be formed, being either useless, or harmful.
It is also important where the DNA is deformed, because it can cause 1 enzyme to be different, or even dozens. which can be harmful.
That's how cancer starts.If in a cell a piece of DNA deforms in the growth section, it sometimes starts to multiply uncontrollably.Normal cells have this sort of buffer that tells them when and how to grow, cancer cells do no. if the mutantcells cannot be "peerpressured" by other cells anymore,(IE slightly controlled) it stops being beneign (or how that's spelled)and then it spreads throughout the body through the veins, and where-ever it lands it grows again. Causing small tumors to grow. leading ,eventually, to death.
Cancer is really hard to stop because the body thinks the cancercells are normal cells. And often it's recognised too late

TL;DR can cause cancer/other deseases/harmfull cells/useless cells

Well, yes, I assumed that was common knowledge. It was probably a good idea to explain that however, there are many young people that use this site.

People not reading beyond the title?
Meh. It happens.

OT: Allegedly, certain particles can be in two places at once (or perceptibly two places at once). Though transporting objects/people in such a manner would certainly be impossible.

1. No, teleportation is not physically possible. It violates the either of the first two laws of thermodynamics.

2. Yes, I usually don't read things very closely.

3. You really really should have put a random nonsense question in the OP with an easy answer like "fudge".

I spoilered it now, don't know if you are ironic or serieus though.
It is good education.

DONE GOOFED. So far, that is.
Just thought everybody should be up to speed.
All you guys, go back and read the opening post.
If you simply ignored it and talked about teleportation anyways, my bad.

You people are fucking idiots. How 'bout three pages of "no". It certainly wouldn't be insightful or thought provoking.
Zechnophode, the original poster, writes like a goddamn forth grader. His post was a self-important note on how people ignore the main point and only respond to the title of the thread. Shouldn't the main point and title be at least somewhat related?
Since belittling people on the internet has little-to-no effect, I'll just say this; go die in a fire.

This is awesome. First, he completely shows himself to be part of the target demographic, as AWDMANOUT pointed out. Then he responds like this to show how mature he is that his obvious mistake was really just because my 'forth grade' like writing style was simply too inscrutable for him to bother reading.

Oh, and then he tells me, or us, to die in a fire and sends me a Private Message declaring me a Fucking tool.

This is... just precious.

This thread may not be the OMG most clever thing ever... and I'd be kidding myself if I were to think so. But man has it been amusing to read the reactions to. From outright hostility at my attempt to make pointed commentary, to actually interesting discussion of the Teleportation topic.

That's a bit extreme, friend.
And hurtful.
And the mods have no beef with this post?
Mmkay then...

 

[bfwissil]

Instant? No, impossible. Offset by the speed of light? Not inherently impossible, but it's nowhere near the horizon of technological feasibility either, and maybe never will be.

 

[bfwissil]

Also, responding to a question in the subject isn't responding "wrongly". You're posting "wrongly" by putting content in the post that differs from the subject.

 

[Rawne1980]

Well, from a thread that set out to see if people read a thread before responding it actually accomplished what it said in the title.

I've been instantly ported back to February 2011.

 

[SeeIn2D]

Well first I thought, "Hey let's go and show off my theoretical physics skillz" then I saw the post and I was very disappointed that this wasn't a fun theorizing thread but a psychological test. However I am going into psychology in college so I am interested in that aspect! And yes I do agree that people will often just comment in response to the thread title immediately before reading anything past that.

Sure just drop an infinitely dense piece of matter a few cm across into space time. It will fold time a space together forming a point where two different points of space time meet allowing you to instantly travel or "teleport" from point a to point b. Still trying to figure out how to negate the gravitational effect on the transport. Lest you be crushed.

 

[Auron225]

I wouldn't know - but a friend of mine studying physics at uni was telling me how it could be possible in the future after a few breakthroughs.

About the other thing, I normally dont read ALL the responses thus far (only if there arent that many and Im very interested in the topic at hand) but I always read the OP if Im going to respond

 

[bojackx]

I looked through the entire post, but I don't understand your goal, so I'm just gonna go right ahead and answer the title question.

No, because physics.

Nothing can move faster than light, so it can't be instant. I assume in the distant future we MAY be able to get pretty damn close to instant, but never truly instant.
