everything is energy, prove me wrong

Don't be fooled by CERN, LHC's true purpose is time travel. El Psy Kongroo.

I thought it was contacting Amanda*.

* I meant to write aliens, but gboard gave them a name. Gboard, Amanda thanks you for your respect.

Also, all the scientists "accidentally" making the same mistake as the BBC proves that intelligence doesn't necessitate maturity 😉

What's immature about it? Penis fencing is a respectable mating ritual among flat worms.

I mean maturity is a social construct

I dunno, they might not be looking in the right place. Have they tried Mystic Mary's Crystal Emporium?

Is the LHC experimenting on crystals?

Don't let Big Particle fool you! Invest in Light Matter today

I and a lot of other people use crystal bracelet to help us sync up with other people. Even if we're apart for days, we can show up exactly at the same place at the same moment if our crystals are vibrating at the same frequency.

How do you explain that?

[-] lennivelkant@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 3 months ago

Is that frequency something you can control or measure? Do you agree on a shared "let's meet" frequency you set it to, and if the other happens to have it set to that as well, you end up meeting? Or is it more of a random chance thing, like running into each other in places you both frequent at coincidentally matching times and deciding it must be the bracelets' doing?

Or am I falling for a joke?

I think they mean a watch

I don't really know, I only know the basics of how to use it. But twice a year when the planet reaches a certain position in the solar system, you have to calibrate it 1/24th of an earth rotation, and then do it again after a certain time. I don't understand why, but everyone is doing it. The crystal draws energy from a silver pendant the size of a coin.

[-] lennivelkant@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 3 months ago

A watch. I knew it. Nice one.

Tides come in, tides go out. Can’t explain that

The frequencies don't have to be new so much as understood.

NASA has concluded electromagnetic frequencies are actively healthy for humans, specifically promoting neural tissue regeneration, so try not to unilaterally dismiss everything crystal hippies say.

babies, bathwater, all that.

NASA's doing research right now with tvmf to develop cartilage regeneration as well.

throwing a magnet bracelet on isn't going to cure cancer, but magnetism has clinically significant effects on many basic physiological processes like the circadian rhythm and that's why it keeps being studied.
