Armadillo Tank posted:the fact they emit photons (visible) means they interact with the electroweak force and have effective mass I think it is more accurate to say that they definitely have a physical component. If the theory that they possess tech that can directly gently caress with perception and memory is true, they may be entirely physical but I'm not prepared to rule out a metaphysical component as well.

Rickshaw posted:Oh, definitely not as far as I've seen. Dolan was on Theories of Everything last year and when asked about Lazar said "yes, I think I believe Lazar's story." Dude's been hooked like the rest of em  He excuses Lazar's lying about his education with "it was the 80s, everyone lied!" And says Lazar was the first person to bring Area 51 and UFOs into the public which naw, people were seeing U2s there decades before and thinking they were UFOs. Its just sad that someone like Dolan who generally seems like a reasonably thorough researcher is such a dupe for ol lying Bob.

That's not really how modeling in science works. What the scientists do is observe something, write down the numbers, and then try to come up with a model that spits out curves which fit the observed numbers. It's even more boring than it sounds. You don't get some amazing new breakthrough theory from the models, so there would be no reason to magic field hack all the computers to prevent the model from spitting out the secrets.

Cabbages and Kings posted:Yes. Interesting theoretical OSINT project comparing known artillery battery positions, munition types, and direction of fire over the period of time the observatory was reportedly seeing these things. That might be too many speculative variables to produce anything worthwhile, but it does feel odd for Avi to just chalk the entire report up to "artillery" while providing no further details and also not having any kind of background in military hardware that'd give that assertion weight.

Pontificating rear end posted:These records probably exist on dozens of computers, having countless redundant and mirrored copies. Entering data into the system would be easy, but deleting records will almost certainly be extremely hard if not impossible. There's definitely no centralized unified system of college records, going back decades. They probably exist on exactly one computer that's still running windows 98 and is stuffed in the back of a closet

You know, if Hoffman is right (he is) you would naturally expect nature to diverge from what we consider intuitive or natural or reasonable as you push to length and time scales outside our normal perception, i.e. the very large and the very small

Gnosticism is fascinating if nothing else. Honestly complex and systemic cosmologies generally own. Like, Gnosticism is a good entry point, but kabballah, the older strains of astrology, neoplatonism, and a few others are fascinating in that there is a systemic understanding of the cosmos. It's not merely heralding specific mythologies as true. I think some people forget that those old dead dudes more or less had the same brains we do, and the educated had far fewer distractions between them and just thinking about this poo poo all day, and those rabbit holes are loving fascinating even if you're unable to put any stock in them as approximations of reality, they are elegant in their design. I swear, between orthodox christianity and post-enlightenment rationalism has more or less slaughtered our ability to imagine other systemic understandings of reality even though they're really cool!!!

I was actually reading Manly P Hall's Secret Teachings of All the Ages kabbalah chapters which lead me into gnosticism. I read the bible as the esoteric document it is now, it's not about what is "in" and what is "out", and some of the apocrypha is apocrypha for a reason. Some of the infant gospels are just bad, even as this stuff goes, really bad. Jesus fanfic, really. But like, I earnestly think the value of these documents is to contextualize the movement. We are so far removed from the time, place, and culture of both the OT and NT, and American Christians especially are uninterested in that context, but merely having it radically changes how you read the material. You had this de-centralized grass roots thing that got co-opted by the roman state, but a Christian in Alexandria, a Christian in Corinth, and a Christian in Jerusalem, for a long time, really only had Jesus between them in common. It's an interesting "what if" exercise to ponder these texts as part of a different orthodoxy than the one we got. I feel like by the time we get the Nicene creed, it's largely positioned to serve the ends of the state more than earnest spiritual purpose, so going to the non-canon documents helps to figure out what was actually subversive about Christianity to the Roman state. Sects like Sethian gnosticism, where the Gods of Greece and Rome are both extant & evil kind of re-contextualizes its suppression, for example
