    This chick works for Blizzard's Cinematics team, I had actually seen her before. I think there's more pics of her in that outfit.

    So I was pretty wrong...

    Its not, here is a link to a youtube video that is the source.

    Physicists have no fucking common sense.

    (btw from the perspective of an object going slightly below the speed of light looking at an object going slightly below the speed of light in the opposite direction, is it going above the speed of light, or did I JUST BLOW YOUR MIND?)
    You're moving through time slower and claim that the other object is traveling below the speed of light as you would measure a beam from your frame of reference.

    The train is obviously assumed to be closed, if wind resistance and whatnot is not represented.

    The lack of common sense is not uncommon, btw, but it is not the problem with that display, the lack of properly documented variables is.

    Honestly, I've just never thought the concept of absolute velocity made sense.

    There was a picture. There were no walls. You can't deny the picture.

    Absolute velocity doesn't make sense.

    The speed of light is brought up to illustrate the way motion through space affects motion through time.

    That is the ENTIRE point of what Einstein was trying to show, everything in SR and GR is about that point.

    You are embedded in spacetime, your motion is constrained by it.

    Here's a train with a guy with a gun in it btw.



    That train is traveling 2000 kph in one direction and the guy is going to fire a gun with a muzzle velocity of 2000 kph in the other direction, what happens?

    Can you see what is being illustrated better or worse this way?

    I was messing around with the train shit. You don't have to explain the problem lol

    And, not to derail into more FISIKS TAWK but if absolute velocity does not exist, then why the hell do we have measurements of the speed of light through specific mediums at all? It's always seemed to me like that is the only thing that is measured in an absolute velocity and I'm not sure why we get to make an exception for it. Not only that, but if it's NOT an absolute velocity, and all velocity is relative, then what the hell is the speed of light velocity barrier that people talk about?

    If the speed of light were to change from moment to moment, two observers in different states of motion would still measure the same velocity at any agreed on period of measurement.

    Light travels through spacetime in a specific way which causes it's motion through time to be decided only by how it crosses space.

    I'd say it propagates actually, personal preference.

    We move through space + time at the speed of light.

    Everything does.

    The heavier you are, the slower you move through time, because having a defined location, having mass, is equivalent to changing your location relative to something else.

    The more you move a massive object around through space, the more you have to reduce it's motion through time.

    Eventually you reach a point where you cannot increase your motion through space while moving through time at all, and that point coincides with the speed of light itself.

    This is telling us many things which we get into in the LHC thread, but the important thing to get out of is that we are embedded in spacetime, and in a sense, we are made of much the same thing light is.

    I wouldn't know whether to fap or cry, but whatever I ended up doing I would probably be arrested.
