Now i'm just waiting for you to post a real world news story before it actually happens tongue.gif

Love it!

The Big One Finally Hits

2050 -- Massive earthquakes devastated southern California this week, killing millions.

Large sections of the west coast slid into the Pacific.

Several cities and towns have been obliterated.

I think traveling back in time is impossible and I think it's over thought to make it seem like it could one day be possible. Could we reallly go back in time? No. You just can't right?

"The Impossible is only impossible, because you believe so" :happy:

I agree, I don't believe there is anything in the past or the future, only in the present, right now.

If man had not invented time, clocks, days of the week, months of the year, etc, then no-one would even consider there was a past or a future.

Time is what moves, not us, we stay right here.

Time travel into the past. Time travel into the future is very possible (time dilation).

actually time travel into the future is very possible, i do it all the time; for that a use a machine called The Bed ©, that when in use it can make me travel to the future (sometimes 30 minutes into the future, sometimes several hours but in this moment can't travel more than hours; days or years is out of the question); unfortunately it can only make me travel forward.

Even if time travel is be possible, anyone succeeding would probably die in a horrible way, considering the fact that earth actually moves in space and if you travel to a different time while staying at the exact same location, you'll either find yourself in floating in space or in a mountain.

There is also another time machine called 'Alcohol', this time machine is slightly more advanced than 'The Bed', this one can actually move you forward days and weeks at a time without you even noticing.

But my most used time machine, I like to call "The PC", it has great power in turning morning into night, and night into day in the space of a few clicks and about 10 minutes

###### dude, why are you making fun of this thread? we're talking real science here, important stuff. also everybody knows that Alcohol © and The PC © have side effects (liver damage and losing social life, respectively), where The Bed © alone doesn't (there are reports that using The Bed © with Alcohol © together with one beautiful chick in that moment both travel into the future and when arriving she's ugly and fat, like she fast aged; scary stuff inded).

When it comes to the topic of time travel, one of the biggest problems is the different kind of paradox theories which exist.

Wasn't it proven that Wormholes do / can exist?

Time travel is also thought to be possible if you could get up to the speed on light. If you're traveling at the speed of light in a vehicle such as a train and you got up off your seat and ran down the isle of the train, you would be traveling in time.

There is also the other theory of time travel that if it was possible, you would only be able to go back in time upto the date of when time travel was first known, of some kind of machine was invented.

If you were to build a powerful enough ship and flew around the black hole in the center of our galaxy, it is also possible to travel in time.

    • The Trump administration doesn't want you to use OpenAI's GPT-5.6 without its approval

      By David Uzondu · Posted

      The Trump administration doesn't want you to use OpenAI's GPT-5.6 without its approval by David Uzondu Image via @realDonalTrump (X) As OpenAI prepares the release of its next model, GPT 5.6, the White House has instructed the company to limit the distribution of the software to a small group of government-approved partners instead of the general public, as it has done with previous releases. According to The Information, OpenAI Chief Executive Officer Sam Altman sent an internal memo to staff on Thursday explaining that the federal government will approve access "customer by customer" during an initial preview phase. Altman noted in the communication that this restrictive rollout is "not [their] long-term model" for software deployment, and the company plans to work toward a "more sustainable" distribution method later. CNN said that both OpenAI and the Trump administration view the capabilities of GPT 5.6 on the same level as Anthropic's Mythos and that government officials intend to "collaborate with frontier AI labs to develop shared approaches for addressing the challenges of scaling this technology." The latest restriction comes just weeks after the US Commerce Department decided to restrict Fable, a version of Mythos with extra safety "guardrails" to prevent users from exploiting software vulnerabilities. Not long after the release, though, researchers at Amazon found a way to bypass these restrictions, prompting an aggressive response from federal authorities. The government ordered Anthropic to cut off access for non-US citizens located outside the US, non-US citizens living inside the US, and incredibly, even Anthropic's own foreign-born employees. Anthropic now appears to be building a workaround to resolve this compliance block with an update to its Privacy Policy that introduces a category called "Verification Data" to handle KYC and Digital IDs. This setup could mandate digital identity checks to filter users by nationality, requiring a government-issued ID and facial biometric data. Who knows? Maybe in the future, you would have to scan your US Passport or State ID to prove your citizenship before you are allowed to chat with Fable 5 (or any other model).
    • PowerToys is getting a new window management utility

      By matthiew · Posted

      When Windows 7 was released I created an AutoHotkey script that uses Alt+` as a keyboard shortcut to move a window across monitors. I have been using that script for over 15 years and this is the first time I have come across another app that uses the same shortcut!

    • Windows 10 quietly gets one more year of support and updates

      By matthiew · Posted

      I called it last year that they wouldn't end support when they said there would. There are too many people still on Windows 10 waiting for something better to upgrade to and 11 ain't it! The recent promises of fixing Windows 11's many problems is nice, but unless they deliver on those promises in a big way then I expect customers will still want to stick with 10.
    • Microsoft raises Xbox console prices by up to $150, discontinues 2TB version

      Full ACK. I went too far adressing your post specifically. And as you said, it up to us customers as participant of the market dynamic as it happens to decide whether we spend our money on a product or not. The responsibility is to the company. In case of this price hike one could assume that MS is expecting or even starting to see a new interest in XBox hardware so they want to avoid losses per unit sold. I find it fair enough that they granted a period in which everyone interested could grab a unit for the current price (Amazon.de has a reliable stock of XBox Series X digital, which I bought last December after having sold my day one Series X a year ago). It is not that they cash up their customers starting on Monday. Cheers and let's cling to our perfectly fine hardware as long as we deem it worthy in relation to purchasing something new!
