mediaphage posted:lol man both threads are really insufferable tbqh yeah i'm saying it's possible a specific chirality is naturally preferred due to some process. Are there other-handed bases just chilling on these asteroids or is the population of offworld bases roughly the same or what the poo poo? That's a big indicator, maybe somehow random bases got kicked off earth or there is something else that causes them to prefer to assemble in a certain way. If they're roughly equal then i guess the question is if you took the most basic microbe, and synthed up a genome & good set of proteins that were all flipped but otherwise exactly the same, and put it in a jar with plenty of flipped food and all that, would it be fine? Would it be any different? id' argue the ufo threads are at "sufferable" tier

so then if this holds i guess we have options like the turian style biospheres are maybe possible detected in-system life, if it happens, and is flipped, could still have originated in-system somehow and isn't some crap that fell in from elsewere but if we get detections and they're not flipped, then i'd think it's possible we could have something like cross pollination in-system from meteors or whatever and it all just coincidentally mostly settled on our style, or there is some pressure due to physics, which would imply outside life forms would be same chirality as us -- multiple in-system genesis still isn't ruled out. alternately racemic mixes only show up in places with no atmosphere, and there's something going on like sunlight is polarized by water drops or some poo poo and this, through some mechanism, suppresses one chirality compared to the other. Either one chirality gets outcompeted in the polarized environment, or is just less likely to be formed in the very environments that support life. but then you could get really wild situations like biomes that don't have this pressure because they're all deep sea vent based or w/e, and so polarization of light has no meaningful effect. You could have situations where there are life forms of different chiralities interacting in the same biome completely naturally. How the hell would that play out? You'd have some pressure to be able to digest and interact with the other chirality. If you end up with an event that starts up a mitochondria analogue that is the opposite chirality as you, does that make it more or less likely to get to eukaryote-alikes sooner? Would you have to make sure you get all your nutrients which maybe includes both chiralities of everything? Real weird poo poo, could open up a huge amount of complexity.

The government has indeed downplayed UFO sightings, but it was because the phone lines got so tied up during the Washington DC UFO incident in the 1950s that they couldn't communicate and that was very bad during the Cold War

I think if we consider the nature of a massless, lightless void, and the nature of consciousness, that an analytical model of creation is the only one that can exist. As a void looks into its own nature, the only function of memory it can exploit is to go faster and thereby create a history of thought. Making hallowed tunnels, wormholes, that go nowhere, but go. And as they go faster and faster, some of the void becomes fast, then all of the void becomes fast, and there is mass that follows these hallowed prayers in the form of elastic carbon flesh as a molecular portal configuration. The mathematical necessity for the wormholes to have an end in order to exist creates an ultimate self knowledge of design, of an individual, of their own design. A worm of flesh that chases the thought. And when the whole void is mass, when it's all known, and all these thoughts are exercised in a writhing mass of worms, woven in space, it can achieve a true heat death. And this true death is the origin of knowledge. A fallen mass of ash and dirt and white hot sun that it orbits. One star, one planet. The afterlife of all of creation. A planet of endless fauna and plant life, a canopy so dense that it makes a pitch black floor. The complete heat death of the universe. And as the death begins to make animated knowledge and liberate its own design, it makes bugs, complex animals, to let light into the planet by eating some of the death. And as they explore the horizon, some of them begin to look up to all of the origins. So we are essentially just very fast evolved bugs who look up, and the answer to "is this all just a meaningless void" is.. no.

Spazzle posted:There shouldn't be any difference. Nothing about physics prefers one configuration over the other. Not so sure. We know light does all kinda poo poo to biology and is the base for almost all earth ecosystems. We know the same scattering that makes the sky blue polarizes sunlight in different ways i'd have to grow a new brain to get a grip on. We also know light is polarized going thru a glass of sugar solution cause the sugars are chiral. A bunch of light absorbing pigments & chlorophyl are all chiral'd up.

If you want to know why chirality is conserved, it's very simple. It's because biochemistry is stupid.

So long as we are posting weed theories mine is that quantum foam is binary and small sequences of foam act basically like the game of life . These patterns in the quantum foam essentially make up the fundamental interactions of each type of quark. The foam also is the dark energy causing expansion because it displaces the uni of empty space rather than space overdrawing. The reason it is moving faster than the speed of light is that over time each one of those particles of quantum foam pushes spaces out in all directions which has an accumulative effect. It's difficult to fully appreciate this because any attempt of measure or observation would be using a hammer instead of a needle to do a lumbar puncture. No matter what we do it is too bulky and causes too much disruption to what we are trying to measure due to how small and fragile each system.
