Assuming that human civilization does not either catastrophically collapse, regress, or stagnate, how long do you think it will take for intensive scientific and technological progress (i.e. the discovery of new things, the creation of increasingly advanced and powerful technologies) to reach a maximum extent, and for all future 'progress' to be extensive (extending our physical presence in the universe, creating more of what we already have and so on)?

If humanity exists for another 1,000 years without suffering significant regression or stagnation, will there still be significant unknowns? Or is it likely we will have a complete understanding of the universe, our place in it, and be able to control it and influence it to the maximum extent physically possible?

What about after 10,000 years; or 1,000,000 years?

copper wire coiled around metal rod is electro magnet. I have no idea based on that picture what the claim is that this thing would do.

In any case I can assure you that there is no such thing as free energy. Its a meme to trick dumb people into wasting their money.

Is there any advantage/disadvantage to training your other hand in such matters as writing?

>advantage
when you break your arm

it's difficult and time-consuming

The best part about using your other hand is it feels like someone else is doing it.

Those are weird titles for a book about algebra, analysis or topology so my guess is that they are memes.

Are the flat earth apologists really just contrarian, angsty troll (inspired by society's rejection of christianity) trying to go against the scientific norm?

No-one actually believes that the Earth is flat, do they? It wouldn't make sense. A flat disc floating in outer space just looks weird and out of place

Flat Earth is a hoax started by a college student to see how many people would believe in it.

Unfortunately the Conspiratard community like to attach themselves to controversial hypothesis and theories (due to autism) so they caught on
>>
well, it does kind of make sense if you think about it on a "science-denier"-scale.

the first level is denying evolution. evolution is kind of abstract and hard to imagine, and it is true that macro evolution was never really documented anywhere. so kind of understandable to be skeptical, but those guys are still kind of nuts usually.

next level is denying the earth is 4,5 billion years old, instead believing it was created 6000 years ago. there is very hard evidence that shows the true age of earth so people who believe that are really nuts.

third and final level is people who dont believe the earth is round. there are literally people who went to space and can confirm roundness. so people believing this are the nuttiest of it all.

Where does denying anthropogenic climate change fall on that scale?

What are some of /sci/'s favourite hobbies?

I think I need some new interests or hobbies.
All I really do is study math, listen to music and play vidya. In 3rd year of math degree btw.

>>8553129
Reading literature and reading nonfiction. I'm just getting started with art fundamentals (figure drawing mostly). It's very stimulating.

I also have a couple yoyos when I want to take a short break. I'm not a hobbyist though.

I lift, shitpost, play vidya and lacrosse

A thought popped into my head today, and It's starting to bother me
So, Tidal power, right? we can generate electricity from tidal movement. Tidal movement is caused my the movement of the moon, but wheres the moons momentum coming from? gravity, right? But you need energy to move things, wheres the moons energy coming from? gravity again? but where's gravity getting that energy?
where's the electricity from tidal generators ultimately coming from? whats being lost and where?

Have you taken high school physics? The moon stays moving because it is moving and has a lot of mass, and has very little resistance to its movement. Inertia, man

>but where's gravity getting that energy?
This is a new type of trolling?
>>
>>8552772
energy has to come from somewhere, the answer cant just be "gravity"

>/sci/ wants to cancel this

It is literraly useless, we cant go anywhere interesting because muh light speed. Its just better to understand stuff on earth better.
>>
>>8537941
Yup, it's pork.
>>
>>8537941
It's a colossal waste already, but it's too far along to just outright cancel. The best thing they can do at this point is finish up the first iteration and then cancel everything afterwards. Spend the remaining budget on missions for this new thing instead of spending another decade working on refinements that will be laughably outdated by the time they're finished.

If that doesn't happen it'll become another golden IV drip, aka The Shuttle Project: Electric Boogaloo and money that should've gone into NASA's mission budget for NASA themselves to appropriate (congressmen don't know shit about space).

Well monkeys have had their heads transplanted with no complications and lived. AFAIK the problem is the severing of the spinal cord leaves the patient paralysed.
