Hi Tampitump. I spoke to you sincerely more than a month ago on this forum in your other thread. I suggested in my long post that you could get a gym membership and try to forge youreself into a man - you have not listened. Today I googled you...I found that 2 years ago you were looking for advice on "The Love Advice Forum" for the same reasons as you are here. You got very good advice from the people there who you obviously ignored. This has got to stop man. You were 23 then, you are are a 25 now - still a spoiled brat. Everything you write is about You and you are obsessed with youreself. Why are you so focused on youreself, have you ever directed your thoughts to that? Maybe it's your parents fault, maybe its your genes, maybe it's a combination of both or something totaly different - who the f cares. The important thing is that you DO have control over it because you are not mentally challenged. You have intelligence and you are not using it. Tampitump...your writings about you being depressed about your looks are a farse. Get it through your head man - you are a mental farse and you are doing it to youreself. I'm sure you love doing this to youreself and you know deep inside that I'm right. Your issues have nothing to do with your looks.

I wouldn't propose just yet. Just write her that you are thinking about her.

A PhD Professor of physics wrote this. This is both funny and kinda scary

Since you mentioned "a few" I will bite. There's a core issue to this whole thing which I don't was adressed (or at least not adressed enough) in that thread. People are emotional beings. I don't think one can expect for a person to behave rationally all the time because this just doesn't happen especially when dealing with issues like well being of our offspring. I wonder (it is certailny plausable) maybe that "too-open-minded" guy had to make a decision - bow to his wife's irrationality or risk a divorce. If you put that scenario into the equation of probability of his kid's well being then suddenly the equation of vaccinations being obviously the right way, stops being so obvious.

Yep, I agree StringJunky. Especially on the psychological issue of the fact that vaccines tied to children health is a subject that goes ballistic very quickly. I was thinking that maybe some biologist could give me me some inside info but I presume this has been mowed here a lot so I will do go look for those threads.

I appologize if I put this is in the wrong section. We got a 5 month old, we did 3 out of 4 dosages of a 5 in 1 "Pentaxim" vaccine which is mandatory here. 4th and last dosage will be at 18 months. Up untill now fortunately - zero side effects appart from a very slight temperature increase but this is negligible. I've been all over the internet looking for legitimate information on vaccinations but there is so much missinformation that it's easy to go nuts. Some of my friends who have children, already went from taking a scientific stance to full nuts due to the crap that is outthere. I'm looking for websites based on scientific sources and scientific opinions based on studies.

I think this will be relevant here... I found this lecture by Nima Arkani-Hamed, at 48th minute he states that space and time are an aproximation because we can't measure them to perfect accuracy. He later asserts that space-time is an aproximation:

Interesting sudy... "Potential voters who see the nation as being in dire economic straits view a presidential candidate as more “presidential” when he or she uses high-intensity, emotional language, a new study suggests" http://neurosciencenews.com/political-language-psychology-4925/ Incidently, this is exactly how the parliament & presidential campains were ran by the right wing party in Poland earlier this year. They were able to convince many of the voters that the nation is in terrible condition and built their entire campain of emotional, high intensity language on that notion. They won both the parliamnet and the presidential elections by quite a margin.

May I request to be banned from this thread as I am about to have some drinks with friends and my phone is unfortunately fully charged ?

I'd answer that I feel sory for you that you will never have fun in your life but then you'd not get the joke again, take it the wrong way and tell me of my ignorance - so I won't.

dimreepr, Conflate, condescension, ignorance...its friday, maybe go out and have fun a little.

My post which you are refering to was humorous. Why don't you lighten up a little?

Exabyte, thank you for posting this. You sound very wise for your age (any age in fact) so I am confident that you will be more than ok in your future life. With your wise attitude you might even keep some of the relationships with your family in the future. Stay strong man.

Everything relevant was already said in this thread. Now some kids are running around screaming "Im smart", Dimreepr is trying to get this thread on track (whatever that track might be) while Moontanman is listening to Bigfoot singing in his back yard and I'm stiring everything with dirty sarcasm.

How so?I'm a cool guy too, Im not going to condemn you for thinking that Jesus is cooler than Bigfoot.

This seems pretty clear to me (excluding the math unfortunately) I still feel that I'm missing something though. If I understand correctly there is no vorticity nor stress tensors to describe (one is a vector field and the other is kind of a vector if I'm not mistaken?) when there is no curvature/when no mass is affecting spacetime. I will have to take your word for it for now as I'm missing the math tool :/

Dimreepr, my irony meter is back to it's normal level; I see you are into some imaginary things that can "lead the way" but some are not so hot for you (like Bigfoot) This seems reeasonable. And??? Edit: I hear that Bigfoot is a cool guy btw.

swansont... This was in another thread a couple of weeks ago (can't find it now) but I think it will fit this thread too so I will ask you here as I presume you don't have time to give me a lecture in a private message. You stated in that other thread that "gravity stems from spacetime curvature" and later that "gravity is spacetime curvature, you can't have one without the other" I've been thinking about your statements and as much as I think I understand them I have a feeling that something is missing or something is not accurate most probably due to lack of my knowledge. Is the aproach stating that gravity is curvature of spacetime really correct? Gravity seems to be the consequence of spacetime curvature or at least one of the implications of mass effecting spacetime seems to be that of gravity but is that equivalent to your statement?

As an atheist I always felt very uncomfortable with the church of the flying spaghetti monster. The idea is too condencending and I feel that an atheist should be above that.

I can tell you where the energy to power the fan and the bulb in this video comes from. From a small battery hidden inside one of the corners of the fan.

Very much may be so.

Done.
