I don’t know if you could validly flip an election that way. It’s a matter of violating election law, rather than invalidating votes, and in a functioning government you could remove illicitly-elected folks; active solicitation of foreign interference seems like it’s an impeachable offense. But the GOP, as we know, had no interest in convicting for other offenses.

You assume he’s a rational adult. I’m sure he doesn’t see things this way.

False equivalence. There was evidence of foreign interference in 2016, voter fraud was not widely alleged, and we didn’t see this flurry of baseless lawsuits trying to overturn an election that was much closer - the lawsuits were typically challenging laws that tended to disenfranchise voters, and happened before the election. Trump’s main “issue” seems to be that he lost. The cheating is inferred on the premise that it’s the only way he could lose, rather than being based on evidence. And Trump is so concerned that he’s golfing...again.

! Moderator Note This isn’t off to a great start (as detailed below), so let’s not expand this, at least for now ! Moderator Note This isn’t really a medical issue. You have cloning and a potential incest-like situation. Nothing suggesting medical treatment. Again, not medical. Again, not medical.

Touch is interpreted in the brain, same as sight. Just because the cause is not physical doesn’t mean the brain won’t/can’t interpret it as such, regardless of whether the interface is one brain with whatever simulation, or it’s multiple brains. I wager 400 quatloos on the newcomers, from a different brain-in-a-vat episode (disembodied brains, at least; “The Gamesters of Triskelion" 2/16)

Perception of time is often compared to the objective standard, but not always. You can compare two subjective estimates. (e.g. “this week just dragged along, but last week flew by”)

It could. The spring force is -kx, and could exceed mg if the people were falling when they grabbed it, so the force on the helicopter would likewise exceed mg. If the mass was at the limit, then this force would exceed that. It’s possible the ‘copter could be pulled down and not recover. But the load goes away when the people touch down, so one might expect crashing to be limited to some specific range of solutions. (e.g stiff spring so the load isn’t removed until you are close to the ground, people falling far enough so the excess force is large)

I’m guessing there is, but I’m not sure how one would model it.

Which is not the same thing as I explained, nor what was claimed in the OP. Some does not reach us because the universe is expanding, which is not what you claimed. Some light does not reach us because it is absorbed, which is not what you claimed. “does not extend any further” implies it just stops or goes away, which violates conservation of energy.

So how do you explain the failure of conservation of energy? The integral over the surface surrounding a point source (i.e. a sphere of radius r) would give a constant for e.g. the 1/r^2 behavior of radiant energy. But if it terminates, then you gave zero.

IOW, Z depends on Planck’s constant because it depends on c, and you rewrote it in terms of the fine structure constant, which also depends on c. But this is little like a fraction you haven’t simplified.

What do you mean by “wave resistance”?

So you mean perception of time, when you say subjective time? Because as far as I am concerned, anything you measure against a standard is objective, full stop. Something that lasts one minute but seems like it lasts five still only lasted one minute. How would we know? Do we have any data on this? We have humans, most of whom are able to appreciate regularly repeated events. Perhaps you should look up studies of blind people and their time perception

Not at this point. His rhetoric was mostly centered on stopping the counting of mail-in ballots, which heavily favored Biden. All they would have to do is interpret them in a way that’s favorable to Trump There’s the rub. It’s not close enough.

The “mysteries of QM” aren’t really part of the Copenhagen interpretation. The main issue between interpretations is how you think about what’s going on when you make a measurement of an undetermined quantum state.

He’s basically stated that he thinks he has a majority of the court in his pocket, and he wanted the cases to go before that court.

Oh, yes, I agree. It’s so they can say they filed the lawsuit, and complain about the system when it gets shot down. That they had been in a position to fix the alleged flaws never comes up, and many don’t realize that the lawsuits themselves aren’t alleging fraud, because the lawyers don’t want to get caught lying in court. But lying on twitter or in the parking lot of a landscaping business doesn’t carry those repercussions. Today I read where one of their suits mixed up Michigan and Minnesota. (more votes cast in MI than there are registered voters in MN, or something like that) “These aren’t very bright guys, and things got out of hand” applies once again. https://www.fastcompany.com/90578730/trump-supporter-election-lawsuit-affidavit-seems-to-mix-up-michigan-and-minnesota

There needs to be some federal statue or constitutional issue, AFAIK. I think a lot of details of elections deal with state law. This isn’t the government bringing the cases, though, it’s the Trump campaign. edit: looks like it’s roughly an even split between state and federal https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lawsuits_related_to_the_2020_United_States_presidential_election There has to be some reason to appeal to a higher level, and many of these are just badly-formulated suits that there’s no leverage. If you e.g. have no standing to bring the suit, there’s probably no basis for an appeal

He’s been thwarted because he can’t get his cases to the Supreme Court, where the fix would be in. Even where he’s gotten in front of a potentially sympathetic judge, there’s nothing to the cases that gives them a chance - no legal point they can leverage to have judge rule in their favor. I also don’t think these judges would stick their necks out when there aren’t enough votes in play to make a difference. It’s scary to contemplate what might happen if the races had been closer, and Trump’s legal team more competent.

Some things can be estimated. The density of the snow, for example, indicates how much it can compress, since the max will basically be the density of ice, i.e around 0.92 g/cm^3 You don’t want to be jumping in if it’s already close to being solid ice

That’s the planck length, and planck time. Not “a planck” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planck_length

It depends on what "infrared transfer optimization" is Post your question. If it's in the wrong area, it can be moved.

That doesn't help. There is no unit of space. "All space is occupied" is meaningless. "A planck in length, width, or height" ignores my objection that a planck isn't a unit, and simply repeats the error. But you haven't adequately described what is happening. It's an open-ended proposition. Basically "hey, what if stuff happens?" You need to narrow the conditions and provide more detail. I'm not the only one pointing this out.
