Aw, well that seems a little out of context :p

Yeah but I see what you mean. Time travel is a hell of a concept though. Pretty crazy stuff.

What you said would be the same as saying that drinking water destroys it.

well it does though:p because your body will break it up into H+ and OH- in order to use it in chemical reactions... as soon as the H and OH seperate it is no longer water. So... Drinking water DOES in fact destroy it.:D

How do you think that Sugars are created from starches? which explains how those huge molecules manage to make it into our bloodstream... because of Hydrolysis and Dehydration Synthesis.


EDIT: also what I said is an almost completly proven scientific fact

Drinking water changes its form. You are not destroying any energy by breaking it up into it's base materials.

Really, you are both right. Water can be destroyed, but the matter that makes up water can't. Once water is broken up into H and OH ions, it is no longer considered water - the water no longer exists. Calling that water would be like turning a house into a pile of woodscraps, and then attempting to call said pile of woodscraps a house. Water is H2O (anyone know how to do subscripts? :p ), but two hydrogen atoms and an oxygen atom are not necessarily water.

Hopefully that should make sense.

They are if they are conected by convalent bonds:p or are those ones ionic... lol... well I guess it doesn't matter... if two H's and an O are connected then they are water... but as soon as they are Ions then they aren't water anymore... and Energy can be turned into Matter... unless you think you know more then Einstein:D E = MC^2

where you guys born with no logic?

I'll tell you the easiest way to time travel.

hold your breath. you traveled threw time. 1.3 seconds. there. your ALWAYS traveling threw time.

Why would you have to mention that energy and matter can be changed into eachother? Anyone who's lit a fire knows that = P

"Burn wood inside a closed container with some oxygen supply inside the container; the mass of the closed container and contents is the same before the wood burns as after."

That isn't changing matter to energy:)

By the way... I did not need to look this up to know it I simply wanted something backing me up so I didn't have to argue with anyone about whether I am right or not.

Alright, I have given up on most of the people in this thread. Time travel is dependent on quantum theory, and is far more complex than the basic logic of cause-effect. There are no time loops, there is no chance of a paradox, and our world will not be suddenly changed by someone time-travelling. We see things as they are in our present, not how they have been effected by any possible past. With an infinite number of possible timestreams, the likelyhood of upsetting anything of importance is so ubelievably small that I don't even want to debate it.

The multiverse persists.

And if something were to change, we wouldn't know, because you changed the past, therefore we would be "brought up", so to speak, with those new "changes". It would seem normal for us. Or all we know, someone could have already gone back in time and changed something, we would never know.

Though I agree with you, Apostle, I do believe in the multiverse. :)

Yes and no. If they go back and change it, there will be two different splits of an infinite number of time streams. So, we will either be in the one where it changed, or the one where it didn't. In either case, we wouldn't know any different unless the time traveler in question made it clear to humanity that he was a time traveler.

Multi-Dimentional. Splits into an infinite X = Pow^X. We are already existing on other dimentions.

If I could travel in time, I wouldn't travel much back-time. It wouldn't be good, for example. I travel back and kill Hitler before he starts WW2, maybe it would break out now, and I guess it would be more terrible for all these new weapons invented. Not to talk about nuclear bombs. (Yeah, I know, the used it in WW2)

But anyway, if I could time Travel, I would travel to the future and see how it looked like, and it would be really hard for me to resist to travel back to the past and see some things, like how the egyptians build the pyramids, Roman legions, The first "people" on earth and such.

I wouldn't travel anywhere in time. Why? Cuz you wouldn't be able to understand a bloody thing people were saying. Seriously, even go back only like 400 years, and the english would probably be complete gibberish to our modern-dialect minds.

Or into the future-LAWL.

We can not go back in time.

Impossible to know tbh.

Actually, we are using small speed for the Time Travelling (6x only). To go back in time, we should Travel a new world, which is actually imposible with the theory of the Transposed Parallel Worlds (TPW).

Tomorrow I am going to talk about some teachers in Todai to get more informations. They'll give me more informations about Time Travelling. It should be nice.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
