Test post from Openvibe.social . I haven't connected anything but Nostr, yet. And the app can't post to anything else, anyway. https://nostrcheck.me/media/2fc201da51c73b3c19a1de3b680f7dc9cbacede506321f5a1deedb2a9007e9a9/7c565471bf8a26773735a507d3a6cffcb1498fead2c911d56f5a1234bb96e958.webp

Your questions "Do you believe in the Big Bang theory?" and "If yes, what convinced you that this is how the universe came to be?" imply that if there is a Big Bang, then this Big Bang is how the universe came to be. But that's not the case.

General relativity theory is a proper description of spacetime, and GRT includes singularities like the center of black holes and the big bang singularity. So the Big Bang is real, indeed. It is a misconception, though, that spacetime comes into existence via the big bang. Spacetime, including it's laws, and including the Big Bang, is emergent from more fundamental objects and laws that we describe by Quantum Mechanics. (The Copenhagen interpretation was a philosophical belief system that denied this and made up some nonsense about collapsing wave functions, but all that's left of that deeply unscientific bullshit today is the attitude "shut up and calculate" of some really bad college text books.)

To apply the scientific method about the question how the universe came to be, you have to mathematically model how spacetime emerges from quantum mechanics and then try to falsify that model's observable predictions by experiments. If generations of physicists keep being interested enough in failing on that subject, you can finally consider it knowledge. This is why we know that GRT is a proper description of spacetime and therefore that the Big Bang exists. But we're not there yet about spacetime emergence from quantum state. We have some very plausible theories but not enough conductible experiments to observe that reality manifests in that ways. And without experiment it's just belief. Even in science.

In short: We don't know how the universe came to be. But we know that it just includes a Big Bang and did not originate itself from one.

Heath Ledger?

On how it felt if it weren"t hypothetical. (I need to know the reason why it happened to know what I would do,)

I didn't do homework, at all.

It depends.

Nice to meet you, too.

Somebody died on #Netflix.

When I saw that you follow nostr:npub1ylccvgzdlan2vyh4snx9u8kjpk8580tm2ecxmvv72mzem3xevt9qw0z7ks

The animated emoji reactions in #calckey really give me the creeps. So this might remain my only post there: https://calckey.social/notes/9efh1m46u4

What are your growth expectations? What makes you have them? What driving forces do you see for growth? What group of people do you think would be next to join? Why would new people stay active here?

Yeah, Amethyst as an Android app (like Damus as an iOS app) can't do that. Only web sites can. But all they need is your public npub key and a decent list of relays. They can retrieve any information about your Nostr profile that was *directly* written into at least one of those relays (and if that relay is available at the time of inquiry). So what is shown depends on the time of inquiry and on the relays the elements of your profile are stored in.

Web links to your Nostr profile are provided by Nostr web clients, like

https://snort.social/p/npub1aufymzm42n5hfwu72ahfaj586xygfz6lnl9aj6j5uluywae4u4vqe8mg66

or

https://iris.to/npub1aufymzm42n5hfwu72ahfaj586xygfz6lnl9aj6j5uluywae4u4vqe8mg66

Just choose a design you like. But note that the content they display in your profile depends on the client's relay list. Almost always some posts are missing, and some deleted posts are shown.

In my search for God ( @derherrgott@mastodon.social ), I first needed to convert some hex encoded key I found on Twitter to a bech32 encoded NIP-19 key. So I ran the command "docker run --rm ghcr.io/rot13maxi/key-convertr:main --kind npub 134ab99a8a75eaeadd24d81c9c857c28a6d2d836edd7e482dcc612dec53123d0" to get the God npub that then led me via Nostr search to His NIP-05 id ( derherrgott@iris.to ). And now I'm immeasurably happy, because I've reached an even higher level of access to His truth. What a great day!

Primordial black holes are non-baryonic. Just saying…

“steakholder acceptance” is the new thing.

Nice picture. I often walked across this bridge and loved it every time.
