>Particles don't exist until a "wave" is measured, right?

Measurements don't cause what's being measured to spontaneously exist. This is why "particles" don't exist either. It's a perturbation of a field; AKA once again what something else does. The action of a field. "Fields" exist, but they certainly aren't physical and have no "origin" or locus that causes them.

>So our base reality are "waves".
Fields, since that is what causes a "wave" to begin with. And since a field has no origin or quantity, then neither do the actions it causes. It's purely qualitative. Light is what it does and how well it does it (illuminates). Solid, liquid, gas and plasma are all qualities of matter (what matter does). You are what you do and how you do it.

>If you think 1/0 being undefined has absolutely anything to do with "nothing acting upon something" then you're beyond help.

You're right, because math has absolutely nothing to do with anything pertaining to reality.

Why don't you tell me what a mathematician does?

How about you go produce me some fucking electrical current without a magnet/magnetism. Can't be done idiot. I am telling you that electricity and magnetism is a conjugate, hence "electromagnetism" you can't have one without the other. You're telling me that it's a byproduct. IT'S NOT A BYPRODUCT IF IT'S A NECESSARY CONJUGATE OF ITS OWN EXISTENCE. Kind of like how "water" isn't JUST hydrogen or JUST oxygen. It's both, that's what makes "water".

>magnetic monopoles don't.
I never said they did.

>Like my heating and cooking, for instance? Sure.
How much energy is in a log of wood? If you hook up the wood to something does it power it? No? Then how come it still can heat and cook just fine when lit on fire? It all comes down to pressure mediation.

>Explain fridges, then.

Really? That's exactly what a fridge fucking does. It does so MORE EFFICIENTLY because it is using a refrigerant gas that is DIFFERENT than our atmosphere. This gas is compressed ( a difference in pressure) which makes it heat up and then it MOVES the gas to a condenser. This condensed gas is cooler than our atmosphere condenses and the temperature difference created is stored in an insulated container. A fridge literally works off the difference in pressures of freon (OR CO2 or fucking anything because anything can act as a refrigerant). It literally does nothing but alter the quality of refrigerant, nothing is added save for the electricity that operates the compressor.

It's made up, it can be whatever the fuck you want it to be.
