if you fell towards a black hole it wouldn’t change your perception except you’d feel a tidal force pulling you harder and harder (stretching you out along the direction toward the singularity) as you get near to the singularity. for an average size galactic center or globular cluster center black hole, the tidal force is tiny at the horizon; you’d feel nothing. if you were listening to vanilla ice on your headphones as you crossed the horizon, it would sound exactly the same and your perception of it would be exactly the same as normal. an outside observer would see you doing weird things as you approach the horizon, like looking more and more red and dim and your vitals slowing down to nearly stopped, but that’s just their perspective. nothing changes in your reference frame at the horizon. but after you pass the horizon and keep falling, eventually your head gets ripped off your neck so, pretty bad

Cringe.

Nigger what kind of idiotic false dichotomy are you spouting?
Take your fucking pills and stop posting.

It's almost like different people specialize in vastly different fields. It's almost like theoretical physicists have nothing to say about the climate. It's almost like a movement toward green energy generation is contingent on economic factors. It's like saying "hurr why do general practitioners exist when cancer still hasnt been cured."

>>10735167
>If climate change is such an existential threat then why are other physicists still dicking around with particle colliders and D-branes?

Because they’re physicists and it’s not their job to “do things” about it?

>Why aren't they putting in some effort where it matters in the immediate future?

See above.

Climate change is a meme.

How feasible is it to create a LIDAR machine that maps out an entire grid in it's view (a small room) and forwards that data to a computer?

The primary issue I see is accuracy, with the motor or with measuring the intricate details of various materials in a room.

And I'm unfamiliar with dealing with LIDAR. I'd assuming you would pulse the laser and then measure the first response receipt of data. Repeat that 2 more times for accuracy and then move 1 unit to the right.

And I also assume that at 10m away, to differentiate a cm from another you would require 0.05° movements of the laser and receiver. This would require a stepper motor and precision gearing correct?

You could also try using electro optic scanners instead of a galvo.

Holy shit fren could I ask you a few questions? How hard is nuclear engineering/physics? We have remarkably similar interests.

Open mouth. Clench your teeth together like you're biting something hard. Hold it for 3 seconds. Repeat.

Does your tinnitus change? If so, its not tinnitus, but

>>10735017
Have T in both ears. Left ear I almost never hear it until I plug it. If I plug both ears I can’t fucking hear the left ear tinnitus. The right ear T is the most bothersome and yes it DOES get louder when I chew or clench my teeth. But I think it’s normal and doesn’t necessarily mean it’s TMJ. I do have TMJ too tho. I really believe I got it from listening to loud music through cheap earbuds. Thank you for the info but I still can’t be sure.

>>10734940
There's a 'famous' method for short term relief: https://quiet-ears.com/how-to-perform-the-reddit-tinnitus-cure-correctly/

This works by exhausting the muscles in the back of your head, but more importantly, it shows that there is a muscular-skeletal factor involved in tinnitus. After learning this I have self-experimented with trying to stretch, pop, relax parts of my neck/spine while I notice it and can find relief doing this, infrequently I find complete, but fleeting relief.

But doing this isn't long term, and is perhaps dangerous. I recommend, knowing this physical factor exists, to make an attempt to pursue Yoga, meditation, get a better PC setup, etc.

There is also reasonable reason to suspect that this game may help with pure tone tinnitus, but I suspect if it does it is more masking the type of issue stated above. https://plasticity.szynalski.com/tinnitus

>>10735071
The reddit method does not fucking work for me at all. What does that mean?

>>10735138
I would make sure you are doing it right, but assuming you are doing it right and its not working, I suggest trying it further down your spine. You can accomplish a similar result tapping the end of a pencil against yourself. If you find yourself involuntarily feeling the urge to 'straighten up' (your posture) do follow the urge.

>>10734986
Unfortunately (for my current circumstances) math has always been a massive chore for me. Always sucked at it, and always hated it. (Probably related, but that's the way it goes.)

Still, I'm glad for any help I can get since I need it now.

>>10735000
An avoidance or sometimes even a phobia is an unfortunate side effect of the way math subjects are taught in schools. I suspect it's because of all the seemingly cryptic formulas and its arcane rewrite rules, correct? When you have time I suggest dabbling a bit in elementary geometry, especially the older kind, since it's a more visual and intuitive practice than raw algebra. And if you're looking for some motivation that even you can master advanced concepts then read the very short Lockhart's Lament.

>>10735022
I suspect it was how I was taught in school. Whenever I'd go to solve an equation there was always a chance that the numbers would seem to just magically wind up somewhere they weren't supposed to, or I'd do the whole thing backwards (which in math, where even a single decimal point in the wrong place ruins everything you've done.... yeah. Kinda frustrating.) and other times when I wouldn't understand why things worked the way they did. But most teachers couldn't really seem to change how they explained things to make it easier to understand, so I just kind of gave up on that bit and focused on things I actually enjoyed.

>>10735040
In that case, just watch the videos and follow my advice. As long as you never give up, you'll get around eventually.

>>10734810
you'd have to define some set theoretical universe where this is the case, and like >>10734856
said, in or current canonl integer 3 is defined to be the only successor to 2. of course if you define a new value to that using some axiom, we can just map 3 to the successor of 2, and move every integer over one since the set of integers is countably infinite.

reading output is the easy part, but what about sending input into the tissue?

How do you even figure out how to "encode" the information? Seems to me like it will require machine learning, as every person's brain will be different.

>>10734994
what's wrong anon, share your mind with Lord Pichai and Lord Zucc. unless there's something you're trying to hide??

>>10735013
is it within reach with current technology to accurately read the motor function output? as in could you have a robot body somewhat accurately copy a person's body movements just by reading the brainwaves?

>>10735019
if you can read the output and understand the connectivity structure of the related network activity then in principle you can input information to meaningfully modulate that activity.

We can already stimulate individual neurons, and large numbers at a time... though not as well as we'd like to.


>>10735029
Certainly some stereotypical motor patterns can be entrained by other muscle movements.

Brain waves certainly no... and likely never since this information is all combined, and even from a single electrode on an EEG cap you're likely recording the middle of a chain of activity.

Neural implants that record in some kind of machine learned way maybe...

but this is silly, there are pretty good results using things like gaze, and eye movements, or recruitly some part of the body that isn't doing much and recording from there to train an exoskeleton suit.


...this is retarded anyway since the cognition enhancement is the holy grail, not moving an exo suit.

heres a paper on using gaze, https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1741-2560/9/4/046016
