Almost any political entity can give a title. Maybe we can get an small incorporated town, academic institution or church to bestow one.

Sir Kiddy Diddler is good, but it implies knighthood and that's a whole thing. Someone could give him an honorary doctorate in Kiddy Diddling, the only question is whether that falls under science or arts.

He looks really happy. I wish him well.

The cheat is oatmeal and coffee for breakfast.

Fast-Poop Oatmeal

In a pot or microwaveable bowl mix:

1/2 cup large flake oats

1 tbsp flax seed meal

1/2 cup water

1/2 cup milk

pinch of salt

Boil and serve with fruit, cinnamon and nuts.

Yes, I know, which is why I brought up the idea of inconsistent physics between universes.

I'm not questioning whether the paper's math is accurate. We both seem to agree the hypothesis can't be proven in the first place.

I am treating it as a thought experiment, which is why I'm questioning how math can prove a negative to a fairly ambiguous question in the first place.

It's in the realm of disproving determinism and flying spaghetti monsters.

What is the main point of the thought experiment?

If we consider a possibility from all sides, then whether or not we could similate a universe that follows different physics is one of those sides. We don't have the power to do that, but we can create programs that simulate different physics. Stands to reason that not every universe may follow the same fundamental laws.

I don't agree that it's equally unlikely to be the first as the last, either, if the universes branch off. A tree has thousands of leaves and only one trunk.

Doesn't this assume all universes follow the same physical rules?

I can poop in under a minute and it only takes one wipe.

Yes! This is called 5BX if anyone wants to look for books and modern resources. There are apps for it, too.

Those are very small condoms. Are we sure they're not for the pokemon?

No you're nice.

This is how I feel about windchimes. Take them the fuck inside and put em in front of a fan if you need to hear tinkly sounds all the goddamn time.

 

Slung across Chenab river canyon, the Chenab bridge is by all accounts considered a modern engineering marvel. Two decades in the making, it is at once a post-card moment, a monument to ingenuity, and a symbol of progress—everything one would expect from the biggest, strongest, best, and most challenging project for Indian Railways since 1947.
