Deep Stoner Thoughts

I couldn't find an answer online, maybe someone here will know.

If a person left Earth, flew the speed of light in one direction for 6 months, made a u-turn then travels 6 months back at the speed of light. When they got back to Earth, how many years would have passed on Earth?

If there a math formula for this?

One year is correct because the time to measure how long the person traveled would be relative to the time the person started. What would be difficult to conceptualize would be how much distance was actually covered.

What about Time dilation?

The faster a person travels, the slower they experience time.

Okay that puts a different factor into the equation and then it becomes different. Now you're talking time relative to the passenger of the vehicle traveling the speed of light. For him I suppose it would seem like a year. While to the people back on earth it would have seemed almost instantaneous. So the answer then is that it's all relative to the perceiver of the time in question.

How about there being a music list built into web sites such that when you're visiting a site the site can stream music to the visitors to aide in setting the vibe you want the site to have. I mean we do seem to be headed technologically in a direction that favors more media. The technology is more or less already in place. Muzak for web sites only better then elevators and department stores.

well Muzak was only approved for elevators and dentist/doctor's offices as listening to it for that short of an amount of time wouldn't cause suicide.......

Well, worker bots can't spit in my food. I would so miss that.... Better yet, I myself just don't go to fast food joints anymore. Works great.

:laughing: true! but i don't think avoiding fast food makes you spittle proof


i've been in some nicer restaurants and seen some people who at least looked like they were really smart giving the help a ration of shit and sending their food back to the kitchen.

something makes me think saliva will always be on the menu. you just have make a special effort to order it:biggrin:

had a roommate like this? what about a kitchen appliance.. "i can sense you're home late and have elevated blood pressure.." and then starts playing whodini or whatever lame shit is being promoted

website music was 1990s, people stopped doing it because it makes you want to kill people ("i left my speakers really loud/i was trying to listen to some other shit/your music is fucking shit i was looking for something else").

don't believe me? notice that no one does that any more.

Well like I said, like Muzak but better. I mean I'm talking music you actually want to hear, performed by the original artists. Not some unknown group of musicians playing strictly instrumental rendition of a popular song.. Since it would be controlled at the site level site owners would be trying to compile music lists with the intent of attracting and keeping people there rather then instilling a desire to move on as quick as possible.

Well that's kind of different though, in that example you are talking a mechanical device with the ability to telepathically read one's mood and decide what music would be most beneficial for that person's mood. I think people might feel that's too invasive. Not to mention we're not quite that technologically advanced yet. That would be pretty advanced because in picking music it would be making subjective choices so it would have to know the listener on an even deeper level then reading that person's mood.

Headlines from the debate last night state that Jeb Bush admitted that he smoked weed 40 years ago...

Well, DUH.!

Do you know even ONE person between the ages of 55 and 70 who didn't smoke at least one joint back in the early to mid 70's....

dude... not that i want to spend my time digging out references and shit, but iirc a few years ago, nintendo or someone released a game unit that reads your thoughts. we were there decades ago, don't try to deny it. the military, eg. general michael aquino, can liquify your brains, from orbit dude, if so inclined.

turn on a tv and simply highpass filter the audio.. what you'll hear will make you shit. pwned
