What was fixed since the computer now shows the login screen? Why do you need to bypass the login? What happens when you enter the correct password? That said, Windows 10 has password recovery features. Or, if that is what you want to do, once logged in you can let a specified user be automatically logged in next time the computer is restarted.

I did not know that, why just two specific locations? Can you post a reference so I can learn more? I believe I need more details to comment your multi universe idea.

Is this, according to your point of view, applicable to all scientific theories? Is the statement above equally applicable to, for instance, evolution*? I think scientists lack a complete understanding of how life initially started on earth, does that lack of confirmed scinteific evidence make you skeptical about evolution as well? A lot of comments in this, and other threads, seems to focus on varous definitions of opinions, fact, evidence and objectiveness and I'm trying to figure out where possible misscommunication comes from so I can add constructive comments to the discussion. *)The scientific theory of evolution by natural selection and later enhancements or develpments

I do not know what it is that you say that you know since you never tell what your secret knowledge is. I can imagine quite a few fitting words for some mondays I've experienced in the past and it has nothing to do with your "theory". Nice! I see I should have added more details! Going of topic: the tiles in my example was meant to consist only of the necessary graphical variations needed to draw the board. Rules, such as max number of white kings, are not part of the tiles. And some old game programmers seem to lack attention to detail

Good catch. In my initial response above I was biased by background in computing where I think the answer is something like: "All possible combinations" means empty white tile and empty black tile plus each chess piece, black and white, on a white or a black tile. 2 empty + 6 types of piceces x 2 colors x 2 tile colors = 2+24=26 different tiles. (quick calculation, may be wrong)

I do not really follow the idea (yet). Short question that may clarify for me; Big Bang is about how universe went from a hot dense state to less dense and cooler. Heat death is even less dense and cooler. How does the mini universes "keep their size"? To me the Big Bang -> heat death analogy seems to suggest that the mini universes expands, not a cyclic process.

The Collatz Conjecture has been proved. What next??
Ghideon replied to Antony Howard Stark's topic in Applied Mathematics
Thanks for the clarification, we are discussing the Time dilation paper. Is the version of the Time Dilation paper you attached to this topic the same version you sent to IJISRT? If so, how come the paper is ready to be published? The paper has quality issues. -

Ghideon replied to Antony Howard Stark's topic in Applied Mathematics
I am confused. What paper are you talking about? A Collatz paper? The A-New-Dimension-to-Time-Dilation paper you attached above? Something else? -

Ghideon replied to Antony Howard Stark's topic in Applied Mathematics
How is that paper connected to the Collatz Conjecture? Anyway, I responded in another topic where you posted. Here are some of my concerns: The first part of the chapter INTRODUCTION/BACKGROUND states: (bold by me to highlight) Maybe just a minor thing but not a promising start. And it is then contradicted by the paper's first reference: Unfortunately it does not look like this revision of the paper has quality issues. How was the paper reviewed? -
Where are the laws of the universe exactly?
Ghideon replied to PrimalMinister's topic in Modern and Theoretical Physics
Interesting topic! I'm no expert in the area but have some, rather naive, comments. First some statements that, in my opinion, are applicable to the topic. 1: There are "laws", "rules" or "mechanisms" governing things in universe. I do not think the universe cares about what I call them and they seem to govern things such as gravity etc regardless if any scientists are around. 2: For a lot of the things in universe scientists have created approximations, or laws, that predicts the outcome of a number things. The approximations are good enough to enable to be useful in lots of stuff used in daily life. 3: Some old approximations are replaced by better versions. Some old laws are still used but in limited contexts. Some ideas: I have not yet found any reference to an experiment where the result shows something like "the universe, at this particular place, behaves differently from the rest of the universe". But through history I've seen lots of cases where "The known laws of physics are not applicable, or does not predict the outcome of the experiment. The laws need some adjustments." A: So, if the OP is about the laws of physics, or "approximations" as I named them above, then @Strange has already given a valid answer. B: If the OP is about any underlaying principles, the ones scientists are trying to model, then the short answer is "Everywhere". Example, intended to illustrate: Modelling the centre of a black hole is hard and doing experiments inside a black hole may not be possible. Black hole observation seems to suggest that black holes follow what ever principles that are applicable. Whether those principles are modelled by laws in text books or not does not matter. I'm not sure there is any scientific value to case B. I find case A more interesting. Thanks! Intended or not, that comment made me think, +1. -
Is the big bang and evolution sciences theory of everything.
Ghideon replied to PrimalMinister's topic in Speculations
By verifying some of the answers given by people on here there are some I trust and others I do not trust. Those I trust most have for instance backed up their claims using good source material, ability to answer questions and present fresh views on various scientific topics. -

Ghideon replied to PrimalMinister's topic in Speculations
What makes you believe that I have to? Or that I, as a god, cares about "will"? You told me I am a god in the thought experiment, I am capable of creating rules that apply everywhere. Back to science: What scientific experiment do you suggest to tell if one of us is right? Is it possible within the scope of science to test it? Can you provide some evidence for your pixel based universe other than "it is self evident"? -

Ghideon replied to PrimalMinister's topic in Speculations
Why throw a god into the mix? But it may be OK for a thought experiment.This will me very imprecise; the purpose of my comment is to express an opinion in context of the thought experiment, not present any scientific facts. Since I am a practical guy relying on mainstream science and observations, I would: 1: remove space 2: create a hot dense state and let it evolve as described by the Big Bang model. Ok. What scientific experiment do you suggest to tell if one of us is right? Is it possible within the scope of science to test it? Can you provide some evidence for your pixel based universe other than "it is self evident"? -
Is the big bang and evolution sciences theory of everything.
Ghideon replied to PrimalMinister's topic in Speculations
Ok! But how am I supposed to see the self evident step if you have a complete picture of some new pixel based model while I have only a short description without any details? Ok! That is interesting, please show how. The original conversation was a bit messy, I am going to slow down a bit so things stay more understandable. I dont quite get what you are on about here, sorry. The reason for my statement is that i have tried to ask the same question from various angles and also to figure out the answers to other members posts but all I can find is: and and and -
Is the big bang and evolution sciences theory of everything.
Ghideon replied to PrimalMinister's topic in Speculations
Ok, interesting! I fail to see why it is self evident but that may be just my lack of understanding so far. Can you please describe: what is a pixel in the context of your theory? Please include a proper mathematic model in your description. Sorry for repeating but I also would like to take part in the discussion about the original topic. If I get your idea correctly there are gaps to be filled but only within these two theories. There is no room anywhere for any kind of new discovery that does not fit within big bang/evolution*? How is that? If possible, I would like some more detail, not an answer similar to "Because it explains everything". -

Ghideon replied to PrimalMinister's topic in Speculations
Sorry, was that comment directed at me? (bold by me) It's probably just a language issue on my part, but I have to ask before trying to answer. -
Is the big bang and evolution sciences theory of everything.
Ghideon replied to PrimalMinister's topic in Speculations
I've thought about the statement above and found it interesting. That is one reason why I engage this discussion. Because it explains everything, including things we don't know yet. There is plently of evidence to suggest the big bang and evolution happened so why don't we don't we just say this is truth, this is the theory of everything and trust the scientific process will fill in the gaps. I have read through the posts and I can't find an answer, I'm still curious: How are these two theories unique and how are they, or will be, able to explain everything? If I get your idea correctly there are gaps to be filled but only within these two theories. There is no room anywhere for any kind of new discovery that does not fit within big bang/evolution*? How is that? If possible, I would like some more detail, not an answer similar to "Because it explains everything". *)I've have been gone for a while and trying to catch up. I've seen the interesting discussion about definitions in the topic, and at this point my question may be imprecise. -
Is the big bang and evolution sciences theory of everything.
Ghideon replied to PrimalMinister's topic in Speculations
Is the Big Bang intended to explain the universe or the observable universe? Lets try this angle: Why is evolution theory needed, why does it not follow from an "improved" Big Bang theory? Or, the other way around, why are two theories enough? Why is there no room in the universe for new discoveries that does not fit within big bang/evolution? -

Is the big bang and evolution sciences theory of everything.
Ghideon replied to PrimalMinister's topic in Speculations
Can you explain why I would take the above statement as a fact? I have lots of scientific questions regarding the first time after Big Bang, where the theory applies. I have lots of other questions that I think would need new theories outside of Big Bang to answer. Are you suggesting that my second set of questions about nature is invalid? Or maybe that future revisions of Big Bang theory will explain them all? I think all theories are applicable within some scope. Why is Big Bang + Evolution "complete" making it a theory of everything? -
Is the big bang and evolution sciences theory of everything.
Ghideon replied to PrimalMinister's topic in Speculations
To me it does not look like a theory of everything. It looks like two different theories describing different aspects of nature. I beleive that a theory of everything would describe how GR and evolution follows, and is explained by, "the theory of everything". *)I usually use "theory of everything" as a notation of a theory explaining fundamental forces including gravity. In the context of this topic I am prepared to deviate from that. -
How about some interactions and discussion with those of us in this forum that are interested enough to spend far more than one hour without getting paid?
-
In my opinion I am trying my best* and I hope other forum members corrects me if I fail. May I request that you also start answering my questions in a clear, consise way using scientific language? Or at least, in a clear and consise way, states why you think my questions are not valid in this context? *) I'm not working as a scientist in this area, I may have trouble to express my opinions clearly. English is not my first language.

I think claiming the universe is pixel/tile/cell based is not necessary unscientific. Lack of discussion how universe is pixel based or what pixels are, that is unscientific.
-
Ok. What is a pixel in the context of your theory? Please include a proper mathematic model in your description.
