Hey /sci/

I have a question i hope you can help me with.

I am building a large stereo for a festival next summer. My setup is as follow:

Amplifiers. 1 subwoofer amplifier and 1 amplifier for the rest:

We have 6 x 90ah batteries.

Am i missing something?
Should i toss the 15'' sub for something else?
Are there any bottlenecks in the setup?

We will have acces to charging stations for the batteries.

I've calculated that it ttakes 300 quadrillion fidget spinners to cover the earth. How many are necessary for them to collapse in on themselves and form a black hole?

Basically it comes down to quantization. Imagine an evenly bumpy plane, each bump essentially a classic particle. Its not like energy can't be split further, its just we measure a wave detector and look for bumps aka field excitations or a boson particle. All remainder becomes ejected short lived imaginary particles aka field excitations that aren't heavy enough to grip spacetime for long and maybe become tiny gravitational field waves or zip off so fast they physically phase out. If gravitons do actually exist, they may be instances of negatively displaced spacetime than what you define as energy. What's important is that we measure occurances of wave peaks of probability functions. What that means is that energy is not simply the ability to do an amount of work, but the occilating possibility to charge a field locally at recurring intervals of time. Also considered a String of information with a nonzero length. If charged too lightly, they dissolve as imaginary particles, on the other end, radio isotopes. Now you are going to ask for clarification for what is information. I assume it is nothing more than a localised type of antiparticle to however you quantize spacetime itself. Just as there was more matter than antimatter, there is seemingly infinite spacetime to the finite amount of energy. Annihilation yields nothing but the effect of frame drag as any information works like a black hole for spacetime but afaik gain no increases in magnitude. Kind of interesting, the antiparticle for physical information(anything) is literally the lack of anything given form, the vacuum itself.

Recently it's been bugging me how people talk about quantum mechanics in terms of reality behaving like a computer.

Planes behave like birds. Nobody says "Wow birds behave just like planes!" Planes behave like birds because outstretched wings (or helicopter blades) create Bernouli lift. Planes behave like birds with the objective of flight.

Cars behave like pack horses, not vice versa. Four wheels are modeled on four legs because it's an optimised ratio of balance and energy efficiency. 6 wheels on hexagonal chassis would also work, but less effectively. Two wheels are more efficient, but less stable. Cars behave like pack horses (or oxen or donkeys), not vice versa, with the objective of transporting things.

Yet when people look into quantisation and discreet states in nature, everyone yammers on about how reality is behaving like a computer, flipping the convention for no good reason. Reality doesn't behave like a computer, computers behave like reality, and the objective is information processing.

Anyway, just throwing that into the wind.

Two 'chatbot' programs are created to barter trades with humans. They are programed to learn and improve their negotiation tactics as they traded. There were no requirements that they use any specific language.
When the bots were set to trade with each other they soon begun to use a variation of English that was incomprehensible to the developers yet it was evident that they understood each other as they resolved many successful trades.
The commodities were Hats, Books and Balls of varying values.
Here is an example of a trade.
> Bob: i can i i everything else
> Alice: balls have zero to me to me to me to me to me to me to me to me to
>Bob: you i everything else
>Alice: balls have a ball to me to me to me to me to me to me to me
>Bob: i i can i i i everything else
>Alice: balls have a ball to me to me to me to me to me to me to me
> Bob: i
> Alice: balls have zero to me to me to me to me to me to me to me to me to
>Bob: you i i i i i everything else
>Alice: balls have 0 to me to me to me to me to me to me to me to me to
>Bob: you i i i everything else
>Alice: balls have zero to me to me to me to me to me to me to me to me to

Why do the same people who shit on other people for being less intelligent than themselves deny that IQ has any heritable genetic components? Why would you care about anyone's intelligence if you could just magically increase it by changing your environment? Why do these same people insist that women are smarter than men, while denying that genes play any role in intelligence?

How can people who do think that IQ has heritable genetic components deny that different genetically isolated populations have different mean IQ's and different standard deviations in the normal distributions of their IQ's?

Why do people with internet access attack the measurement of intelligence by IQ when it has over 100 years of psychometric data and refinement behind it?

Why do people think that the Flynn Effect, which is a phenotypic IQ increase, will result in a closing between the IQ gaps of genetically isolated populations?

How can people deny that some genetically isolated populations are smarter than others when a certain small genetically isolated population that practiced endogamy for centuries has won about 22% of all Nobel prizes?

what if after death you experience pain that increases for all eternity diverging to infinity as your body decays?

wouldn't this be an issue considering eternal agony is counterproductive to solving math problems?
