you know, uncertainty principle, conservation of angular momentum, 2nd law of thermodynamics

laws of physics

@Alric the Bretwalda did you not pay attention in middle school

Ha!

ok

?

Newton's laws were refuted by Einstein's, so his theory turned out not to be a law, but a brilliantly conceived recreation.

And Einstein's theory is one that demands empirical testing.

Am I truly a material body subject to ''laws of physics''?

Newtonian physics work perfectly well, and are still used today

especially here on Earth

They're only a model, not a law.

And they have been refuted.

And what about quantum theory? Perhaps it can predict how much strawberry icecream I will have over chocolate in a year.

what the fuck are you even talking about

But can it know what I will pick tonight?

do you even know what general relativity is?

Why should we suppose there are such things as “laws of physics”?
Does physics account for the totality of reality?
Is a scientific law anything other than a clever creation of the human mind?

calm the fuck down lmao

do you or do you not know

what general relativity is

General relativity is a description of gravity

it does not come into conflict with Newtons laws

"So, perhaps he means the Theory of Relativity. Can that theory predict whether I’ll choose pistachio or strawberry ice cream next Sunday? Well, according to that theory, every body follows a “world line” in space-time, so presumably a physicist could compute my world line and predict which flavour I will choose. But another minute’s thought will convince you that what we have is not a “law of physics”, but rather a hypothesis that demands empirical testing. So far, at any rate, no one has computed my world-line, indeed, no one has even proposed how that could possibly be done. Hence, until there is an experiment that can be tested, it is premature to consider it a law of physics. Furthermore, another minute’s reflection will open up this question: am “I” truly a material body subject to laws of physics? Yes, I certainly am a material body, but does that exhaust who or what I am? It appears that the laws of physics simply assume I am nothing but a material object, rather than prove it. Therefore, it cannot be the Theory of Relativity."

it does however, come into conflict with Newton's idea of absolute space and absolute time

oh great a copy paste

Let me know when you're ready to start a new topic, dummy.

what the hell about this do you not understand?

@Alric the Bretwalda again, do you even know what general relativity is

General relativity does not predict what fucking ice cream you want

https://www.express.co.uk/news/science/1158337/ewton-wrong-science-dismiss-isaac-newton-theory-gravity-albert-einstein-black-hole

yes, Newton's theory of gravity was wrong

his other laws of physics were correct

Newton's theory of gravity assumes absolute space and absolute time

general relativity proved relative space and relative time

This shit article is talking about quantum gravity

quantum gravity is a currently undeveloped field theory of gravity

in other words, it is a description of how gravity works in the quantum world

@Alric the Bretwalda general relativity works perfectly fine

it has made astonishingly accurate predictions about our universe

it just has a limit to where it can be used

and one of these limits is in the quantum world

Newtonian mechanics is only an approximation and break down at high speeds.

Thus as stated before they are not ''laws'', just a well crafted recreation of the human mind.

what point are you trying to make?

You call them ''laws of physics'' and enshrine with a throne of infallibility.

Well general relativity has not been wrong yet

neither has quantum field theory

or the standard model

You've clearly been influenced by scientism like so many other people.

scientism is the satanic belief that we should make observations then come to conclusions that can accurately predict future observations

lmao

Why should we suppose there are such things as “laws of physics”?
Does physics account for the totality of reality?
Is a scientific law anything other than a clever creation of the human mind?

you sound like one of them

geocentrist

s

or flat earthers

I'm not a flat earther.

what about geocentrist?

I'm not a geocentrist either. I don't see how any of that is relevant.

just curious

anyways

these laws would still exist if humans were not around

the 1rst law of thermodynamics would still apply, for example

you see, laws are simply statements of patterns we observe in nature

one such pattern is that energy is never created or destroyed

its only transferred

this is not dependent on the existence of humans, or eve human observation.

It is a feature of our universe

@Alric the Bretwalda is this making sense?

What is the role of science divorced from metaphysics?

what

You cannot tell me the difference between a fact and a truth.

those seem synonymous

Talk to you later, gumball.

lmao

Could I have a TL:DR summary of what happened here?

tl;dr he was a retard

@everyone: Daily Question
If you were given free reign to fix/improve the healthcare system what would you do?

Make it free.

Make it so you have to work

Healthcare for all

Free healthcare for all

Make it to free by making everyone work.

free healthcare for all active workers

If you pax taxes then you get free healthcare

@AX(e) thats the best idea i ever heard

Ovens for the sick like auschwitz

we can literally let lazy people die off

Ovens for every non-white

white jews

Jews ain't even human

Hellcare

Hellcare for the kikes and negroes

<:bruh:591181809493082113>

Free healthcare is shit. Take it from someone who lives with it.

In order to afford free healthcare society needs slavery.

Take your pick. Pay to play or Pay to win.

False @Niggler

It just means that the rich need to be taxed more on average than the poor (in America)
