Supposedely, there are 10^80 total particles in the Universe, or something like that. Well, I was thinking about this, it seems rather like a large number right? Hmm..

Well, there are (supposedely according to Andre La Mother) 10^11 neurons in a typical human brain. Let's suppose, that each neuron is one particle, just for laughs. There are supposedly 10 billion people alive right now. So, that would mean that the human race and all their brains are using up 10^22 particles of the universe out of the 10^80 particles.

So my theory is this: the universe is being rapidly absorbed. Think about this. There are probably about 1000 terrabytes of hard drives in the earth. Let's imagine that 1 bit of information requires 1 particle (this is not rigorous) so, now we have left maybe 10^10 particles in the Universe left.

In summary: every time we reproduce or build a hard drive, a planet on the edge of the Universe is destroyed as it's particles are absorbed by our conquest.

The Universe is finished guys.:wallbash:

mkaaaaay...

Though, this is all based on your supposition of there being 10^80 particles in total. And another thing, 10^22 is not 25% of 10^80. is 10^1 25% of 10^4? It's more like 0.01% or something like that.

10^22 / 10^80 = 10^(22 - 80) = 10^-58
so it's 0.0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001%

But Andre La Mother confirmed this to be accurate. I have a PhD from the University of BS, and I can confirm my statistical analysis is correct!

You're just jealous of my superior scientific findings.:yes:

[monjardin]

About 67.35% of all statistics are made up on the spot. ;)

Look, you might doubt me, being new and all... but Andre La Mothe himself confirmed my THEORY:blink: Do you DOUBT ANDRE LA MOTHER?!?!?!

I know a lot of people do. :)

It's "André LaMothe", if you give the guy credit at least spell his name correctly.

[TheNut]

Well, better the universe :alien: to suffer at the hands of humanity rather then the reverse.

Andre LaMothe.

Ahh, that's how he spells it, I see! I was confused by this publisher telling me what a Andre LaMother f*** I was for the boatload of premier press books that were returned without selling. GAH!

Adios boys.

[Methulah]

Also, there are only 6.2 or something billion people in the universe, not ten billion.

[zavie]

Prove it. :-]

Well, I fart louder :closedeye

Btw...
:cool2: <--- Isn't it Andrè LaMothe?
Come on, it's him! -hehehe-

There is quite a good novel by Greg Egan called Quarantine a kind of sequal/rewrite of one of his top notch short stories in Luminous witch is kinda about this very topic.

The novel is set in the near future (2034-2060), after the solar system has been surrounded by an impenetrable shield known as the Bubble. The Bubble permits no light to enter the solar system, and as a consequence the stars can no longer be seen. This seems to be mere background at first, but in fact it is central to the plot.

The Bubble, it appears, was constructed by aliens to prevent humanity from wreaking massive destruction on the rest of the universe, though this remains speculative. The human brain is responsible for all causality, by collapsing wavefunctions representing systems into a particular eigenstate. Human observations of the universe were reducing its diversity and potentiality (for instance, by rendering it uninhabitable to beings that relied on stars being something other than the enormous nuclear fusion-powered furnaces human astronomers have observed them to be).

Top notch scifi book if you are into that kinda thing (witch I am :)

This thread reminds me of an old saying we have here in Switzerland.

"Big cheese equals small cheese."


Because:
1. The bigger the cheese the bigger the wholes.
2. The bigger the cheese the more wholes.

The bigger the wholes and the more wholes there are the less space there is for cheese.
The less space for cheese the smaller the cheese is.

Hence,
Big cheese == small cheese

[Reedbeta]

It's holes, btw, not wholes =) Whole means all of something, like two halves make a whole. A hole is a place where something is missing =)

[moe]

Lol, my bad but I see you got the point anyway.
Of course if one would speak proper English one would mean hole...

Sounds like a cool plot. But then again, quantum physics is always cool
