So the AGs are weak to bread, just like those aliens from Evolution that just happened to have a lethal allergy to shampoo?

yes, like humans have an 'allergy' to cyanide. No, the aliens in that movie had a chemical weakness to that one chemical in the brand of shampoo they were using, mostly because plot. :p

I'm proposing that the AG's are allergic to Gluten. ;) And Anna has her weaponized bread stockpile.
 
Relativity, FTL, causality. Pick two...except...

There actually IS a way to allow for it to exist in our current understanding of Spacetime, but it requires an outside observations source to see ALL of reality at once. Because then it doesn't matter how fast you're going, you never outrun your own cone of causality...
All you need is for FTL travel to take place relative to a special reference frame and everything works out nicely. Obviously this contradicts Relativity, but it does so in a way that you can semi-legitimately say that we today have no way of knowing. "Observer" in physics doesn't have to mean any sort of actual thinking being or something.

True.

But then again if we're all on one Brain according to M theory (yes I know it's contested) then all it would need is someone/something outside that Brain to act as the 'observer'.

Yea, needless to say to anyone who has no idea what we're talking about, there's some weird stuff in the theoretical side of physics. Cool stuff, but it gets weird.

I just like tossing the idea out that there might be some higher being, just because. Science never disproved (or proved) the existence of such a being after all. A healthy debate is always good. (note HEALTHY not hostile or angry)

Just like Delta says, 'observer' doesn't mean that anyone has to observe in layman understanding of this term — or exist at all! For example, a photon might have its position's uncertainty collapsed by being observed by actual human eye, or it might be absorbed by a stray electron and rise its energy level. As far as physics are concerned, the latter case is as observed as the former, even if photon and electron are the only things in the whole universe and no consciousness exists to actually watch them.

Neither it is concerned with proving or disproving something that is unprovable or undisprovable, let alone both, and the idea of abstract 'some higher being' just happens to be both.
 
Brane. If we were all on one brain, that'd be very different.

....FFFFFFF


Ok, in my defense I should have been asleep a hour ago... Spellcheck doesn't know what brane is. :D

You know what, I'm too tired to be in a conversation without spelling errors, let alone without turning some thought that was meant to be a pithy joke into a flame war on accident. Night all.

Another question.

You mentioned before that some of our decisions in this Quest neutered some of the more interesting possibilities Shuri and Anna's relationship could have developed. What were some of them?
