@realcaseyrollins Ohhh nice, I always wanted to be in the freaking business. I love freaking, it would be great to do that for a living. You hiring any part time freakers for your freaking business?

@Pat I am not sure how a universe that is so diluted matter and space becoming irrelevant would cause a new bigbang or be a singularity... but hey what the hell do I know. I'm sure he knew what he was talking about. I'd have to check out his theory.

@Pat Actually I kinda take back #3.. even a topological collapse would result in blackholes.

The reason blackholes didnt form in the big bang/inflation was due to uniformity which didnt disappear until things were too far spread out to collapse. But in reverse things are no longer uniform and thus I would expect them to collapse into lots of blackholes if the universe collapsed.

That said I'm no expect on these things, at best its an interest of mine. So I would defer to people more comited to this subject.

@freemo

However, there are theories that predict the preservation of information from one iteration of a repeating universe to the next. Rodger Penrose has proposed that once the universe expands to the point where measuring distance and scale become impossible, then that state of the universe could be considered a singularity for that reason (absence of scale), and we may be able to detect radiation from a previous iteration of the universe, if that's how it iterates. It's a highly speculative theory, obviously.

@Pat all moot as we seem to have the evidence leaning towards an open universe at this point.

@Pat depends.. 1) the universe is theorized to be little more than the inside of a black hole... 2) if there were a gravitational collapse of the universe it would form a black hole, so data would be preserved. 3) if there is a topological collapse, where spacetime itself shrinks, a reverse of the big bang, then yes you'd be correct blackholes wouldnt form.

@Pat singularities, or what you really mean is a black hole, does not cause the information to be lost. It persists as a hologram on the event horizon.

@Pat my computer is sub-quantum. It uses quarks and the strong nuclear force rather than electron spins and EM force. I figure while everyone else is wasting time trying to build quantum computers I'd just skip ahead to the next gen.

@Pat Forever. it turns your computer into a perpetual motion machine and even if you pull the plug it continues to run anyway because it cant shut down the loop so it starts pulling energy from zero-point fields.

In case anyone is curious this is where I will be for the next 3 months. Thats a hotel directly on the beach.

@abloo The whole point of stackoverflow is so you dont need to actually learn what the commands mean.... you are doing it all wrong!

For any of you who might have thought NFTs were a good investment... welll.... so does Paris Hilton. That should tell you all you need to know

@khird

This literally happened to me earlier with I think it was like London, Australia instead of London, England.

@Pat

@Pat No, because england doesnt matter, they don't even speak American over there!

Ya know, I feel like New York has been around long enough now we can just start calling it York....

@abloo I run the Stallman kernel with android on top of it.

@abloo without a ipv6 address, or atleast a tunnel into it that would give you one, you cant really connect to ipv6. So its kinda the same thing, they would have to give you a ipv6 address for that and then no one except for experts would know how to use it.

@abloo Alot of them will give you an ipv6 address if you request it. They dont by default cause most people dont know how to use one
