    We must, as Eric Weinstein says, “break the Einsteinian speed limit!”

    I don't understand this. Like can someone explain. Cus I don't see how its not linear.

    Time acts weird as s*** as soon as you hit outerspace. Dark matter or whatever it is has weird effects on everything we know, and it's worse when you approach a black hole.

    I understand but just one last favor. Can you break it down like I'm 6.. Basically time doesn't exist?

    Time is just a measurement we created to keep track of the universe.

    An answer I got online

    Time on Earth and time in space are different because of relativistic time dilation.

    Explanation:
    Isaac Newton saw time as passing at the same rate for all observers. This was not quite true. Relativity says that time is the fourth dimension of spacetime. This has some profound consequences.

    Albert Einstein showed that mass and energy are equivalent with his famous equation
    E=mc2. He also showed that mass and energy cause spacetime to curve. Gravity is the effect of this curvature.

    Both velocity and mass cause time to slow. An observer on a fast moving ship or in a strong gravitational field will experience time passing normally. An external observer will see time passing more slowly on the fast moving ship or in the gravitational field.

    Something curious happens to time when in orbit around Earth or anything else. The orbital speed causes time to slow. The reduced gravity by being in orbit rather than on the surface causes time to speed up. These effects cancel out at an altitude of half of the radius of planet.

    So, astronauts in low orbit on the ISS age slightly slower than people on the Earth's surface because the velocity component of time dilation is greater than the effect of reduced gravity.

    The clocks on GPS satellites in high orbit run faster than on the Earth's surface because of the reduction in gravity has a bigger effect than orbital speed. These satellites have to have their clocks slowed down to match surface time.

    I feel like it's because of how little s*** has changed from 2016 to now. If Bad and Boujee came out in 2021 it wouldn't feel out of date at all. Time feels like its moving fast cause the culture is moving so slow.

    Think about how different s*** is between 2006-2011. Niggas went from 5XL t-shirts and durags to tight vnecks and snapbacks. The sound totally changed in that time. The internet mass-proliferated.

    Between 2016 and 2021 we got TikTok. That's all that's different

    Time is a man-made measurement. Just like distance and temperature. We have instruments used to measure these things but they are flawed. Take police speed radar guns. They use them when they're stopped on the shoulder of the road to get an accurate measurement of where you are going. If the police were to use the radar gun will driving it would throw the measurement off. This is known as relativity.

    Time functions the same way. However in order to "move" through time at a different rate than others that would require actual physical moving at a different speed. The faster you go the more pronounced this changes in time-experience changes. For example, when a plane goes on a flight the on-board clocks on planes are always initially mismatched from the clocks on the ground after landing. Thus there is an illusory element to time being a consistent type of measurement.

    the way that we experience time isn't linear. We fall asleep and wake up and there's a lack of continuity to our recollection. Sometimes we daydream/meditate on past memories. These things take us out of experiencing the raw immediacy of life. Of being present in the moment to the world around us. Time as a strict procession becomes confused and blurry because our subjective thought makes it blurry.

    It's like when you're taking a test and your mind wanders onto arbitrary things like your mother-in-law's terrible lasagna or how sad your childhood best friend was after his parakeet passed away. You're taken out of the moment and in that instance you're following a different type of time

    Only time, time, feels fast to me is when im doing what i consider myself is "nothing" wether i realize it or not.

    Personal growth (whatever you deem is fruitful & enjoyable/productive/important) in something is one way to measure time easier on a personal level, for example.

    That way you can compare & "grab" onto something that is more tangible instead of it feeling abstract. A reference point. You can easily get lost in an ocean but if you have something to compare where youre currently at then its way easier for people to make sense of things.

    Easier to compare A to B than it is to start counting random numbers.

    s*** when did you realise that most people are making life up as they are going along with no actual long-term goal in sight just taking things as they come?

    if time and space are legitmate dimensions and if you were able to step outside of space and time then you could see time stretched out from beginning to end, so free will doesn't exist for me if everything is already set in place the only difference between you and a tree is the fact we are perceive that our death is always looming, instead of just sticking to the present moment at all times and be fully present and aware and what lays infront of you.

    I like to think of it as this: imagine a movie reel. The whole movie already exist, you just experience one frame at a time. If we are just moving frame by frame threw time and us being born and dying is happening right now we just aren't currently on that frame. We call that movement time, but really it’s more like an odometer that counts how many “frames” you have traveled. I can feel myself literally dying right now, some profound s***, like I’m watching a film and I know how it ends it ain't complex to put it in context.

    when you book life this way there is no regrets, no pondering what could be better (or worse), no thinking of how others are having it better, it's liberating asf you can't waste time if it doesn't exist 👈 pain and worry washes over you so easy like this. feel like we ain't got real free will if everything already set in, but my point still stands 2016 does not feel that long ago w/e life a trip.

    Time, in science, is referred to as timespace. Time and space are correlated. As one's motion through space speeds, time slows- and vice versa.

    An example of this is as such:
    Scientists took two clocks that were collaborated to billionths of a second to each other. They left one clock on the ground and put the other on a high-speed jet and flew it to the other side of the world. When the plane landed, they measured the difference between the times on the two clocks and found that the clock that was on the jet was fractions of a second behind the other- demonstrating that time went slower as it traveled through space.

    is it not possible that the acceleration, atmospheric pressure, solar energy or any number of things affected the mechanics of the clock on the jet? it’s wild to assume time itself is bending

    I don’t know anything about the actual experiment, just going off what you said
