state-run/influenced media and state propaganda/messaging. It's my hobby and other than the cats quite possibly the most interesting thing in the world to me. I haven't worked on Cuba in years, but I still read the main paper a few times every week. And oooooooh man don't get me started on Russia and Venezuela. Maybe the most fascinating media environments in the world.

So supposedly the faster you're moving the slower time passes. Was linked in that article on travelling to Mars or some crap. But in "Earthly" physics, speed is always relative. So, this speed, is relative to what "fixed" location in space?

relative to the speed of light, which is a constant.

I meant relative to position determined by some sort of datum system.
And yes I do like physics, but I really only understand the practical application (engineering) of physics. This space stuff is very weird for me.

That's the article I was referencing. I don't think you understood my question.
-
So supposedly the faster you're moving the slower time passes. Was linked in that article on travelling to Mars or some crap. But in "Earthly" physics, speed is always relative. So, this speed, is relative to what "fixed" location in space?
The faster you are moving the slower time passes. However, that is relative to the people outside of the passing object. Take a jet. Atomic clocks have been precisely calibrated and put in both a jet traveling at supersonic speeds of pilots and a stationary place. The atomic clock in the jet will be slower than the clock at the stationary point. However, I have heard many theories on what the perceptions of time would be like at light speeds. Some claim that, while on the moving object moving at light speed that time nearly stops relative to the object moving at light speed. Others argue that time would progress as you currently experience time, but with some dramatic effects while traveling at light speed. The distance light travels in one year may not feel like a year, but (let's just say for argument) a day. A day passes for you on the object, but a year travels for everyone else. Crazy. Let's say there is a planet 200 light years from here and we have the ability to travel safely at light speeds. Given the physics in my example (where 1 day for you at light speed = 1 year for everyone else), it would take 200 hundred years for you to arrive to the planet and 200 years to get back, plus the number of days on/near the planet for those that are stationary. However, for those on the "ship" traveling at light speed it would feel like 200 days to get there, plus the number of days there, plus 200 days to get back (meaning 1.5 to 2 years for you and a little over 400 years for everyone else).
That is nuts. In 1.5 years of your experienced time, all that you know and understand is gone. Nuts I tell you. Time is always relative whether on Earth or in space. That is what quantum mechanics stipulates. 1 second of time on Earth is equivalent to 1 second anywhere. However, the relative nature of that one second is what is interesting. Just as matter can neither be created nor destroyed, time is a constant on a three-dimensional plane. However, just like matter, the phase of time can differ and the nature of the constant changes relative to speeds.
I apologize in advanced for typical the ole' Blumpster's inner head ramblings.

Ok, so it's time with respect to some other "stationary" point's time (which we know is not really stationary). What I meant by that is I am, in one way, stationary at my desk typing this post, but relative to the sun, I'm flying around it at like 67,000 miles per hour. And the sun, relative to some other distant point, might be moving at like a billion miles per second. So it's not time with some accepted standard or base time; it's like a differential time.

SD...total boss post. That would have saved me the 10 minutes of me rambling. +1 interwebz for you!

You got it. It's like differential time relative to speeds. It gets even more nuts when you think about time as a infinite, but a curvilinear "constant" that continually collapses on itself. Thus, the big bang is both the beginning and the end. Some physicists have even argued that the universe is also curvilinear that if you travel at the same heading (let's just say it is possible) for infinity, you will eventually come back to the same point you began the journey at.

Whenever I read about someone young dying on a night out or on vacation, commit some awful violent act, or just something really stupid, I immediately try to find them on Facebook or twitter to see if they posted anything of interest. The last one was a guy who splattered himself all over a bridge on a motorcycle. Lots of pics boozing his ass off from about 2pm that day until about an hour before splatter. There have been others that were more fun.

Apparently, the characters are from a famous Arab cartoon. Start collecting now, SD. They're gonna be valuable one day.

SD, might hold off until Blump chimes in.

I'm kind of interested in how bus routes take shape. A lot of them don't seem to make much sense, and I'm curious how they got their irregularities.
I'm not interested enough to actually do any research about it, though, so not sure if that counts.

True Story: about half a dozen times within a three year period, I called the KCMO bus folks and said that I needed a new bus stop at certain locations, or bus stops moved blocks away from an existing location. Every single time, they just did it without checking to see I was who I said I was or whether the project I was working on even existed or not. No paper work, no permit, no fee, etc. Just, "no problem", then a couple weeks later, boom. new bus stop/moved bus stop.
Given that, it's probably good you don't spend much time trying to analyze it.
