British physicist Mike McCulloch has a profound point here. image If his Quantised Inertia (QI) theory works out and can be utilized practically, the world will have access to unlimited energy without pollution. Add that QI would power interstellar drives as well, allowing for practical expansion into space - a frontier that will create an unlimited number of jobs. Just at a time when AI will displace a large number of jobs. QI theory gets rid of dark matter and explains previously mysterious anomalies that traditional physicists have tried to explain with inserting subjective amounts of dark matter here and there in order to make the observations match the data. As the QI theory will become increasingly tested within coming years via practical experiments in space, an interesting lithmus test is forming: How will the "environmental" movement react to Quantised Inertia if QI can provide humanity with abundant, pollutionless energy? The cat is out of the box and ideas whose time has come cannot be returned to obscurity. If Quantised Inertia works out, this will be the nail in the coffin for the UN Agenda 21 project and the climate doomsday preachers. Quantized Inertia was inspired by Mike's insights from Oceanography. He was aware that boats close to the shore are pushed toward the shore because of the longer waves hitting the boat from one side, while the waves on the beach-side are shut off by a horizon that caused them to become shorter. The principle follows from there: in theory we should be able to harness energy from quantum horizons and the acceleration that causes such horizons. Applied to galaxies, QI can explain why galaxies hold together without inserting dark matter. The principle behind this, as I understand it from Mike's talks, is that the Unruh quantum waves that exist outside of a galaxy are at maximum length, while accelerated matter shortens Unruh waves. At the center of a galaxy is a black hole that accelerates matter towards it. The distance from the center of the galaxy thereby predicts the length of the Unruh radiation waves. Close to the center of the galaxy the Unruh waves are shorter, due to the higher acceleration and the horizon formed by acceleration. The Unruh waves then gradually increase in length with further distance from the center until they reach the edge of the galaxy where the acceleration is lowest. Since the longest Unruh waves push against the shorter waves, the galaxy is kept together without the need to insert dark matter. The beauty of QI is that it is remarkably simple and can be tested practically, which can't be said about dark matter. Dark matter can be described as the establishment ethos - "believe this by decree and authority, not by proof of work". QI can explain a variety of anomalies such as the orbits of binary stars where inserting dark matter doesn't even make sense. We live in interesting times. #QI #QuantisedInertia #MikeMcCulloch #McCulloch #Quantised #Inertia #Physics #Liberty #Science #DarkMatter #Dark #Matter #Energy #Environment #Environmentalism #Climate #ClimateAlarmism #Alarmism #ClimateScam #Agenda21 #Agenda2030

I started playing some online chess recently. As a terrible chess player I was slaughtered in game after game, expectedly! The harder the challenge the more the allure. image One of my few wins was interesting (image above). I played as the white side and at this point in the game I had lost both my rooks and the opponent had a stronger piece lineup. My strategy was to advance my Pawn from D6 to D7 and then the plan was to move my Bishop from F1 to H3, combining an attack together with my Queen placed at A4, toward his King. I was ready to sacrifice a few more pieces if nessary. The idea played out well, perhaps due to my opponent being at a similar level as myself. I threatened his King and managed to take out both of his two Rooks, after which I could decimate his pieces step by step, with a couple of losses on my side. This was a game that I thought I was on the verge of losing and it was stimulating to execute a comeback. I didn't see any chess discussions here on Nostr, so here's an absolute noob posting, hoping to see interesting chess content from more advanced players. Cheers! #Chess #Game #ChessGame #Board #Chessboard #Gaming #Gameplay #Online

Art tutorial for promo renders, part 1. image Eye-catching promos are essential when it comes to demonstrating the merits of a product. Showcasing how a 3D figure can be used for art concepts helps the viewer to conjure up their imagination and be inspired to create art. Another dimension of promo art is informing the consumer about the product and visualizing what they can do with it. In the example above I placed this female character in a Conan type of setting and adjusted her pose to a casual, reclined position, gripping the throne with her left hand. The underwear that I applied to her did not fit the character properly, due to it being from a different generation. This is a common issue. I fixed the underwear problem in GIMP by first using the Free Select Tool to cut out a copy of the underwear to a separate layer. Then I used the Warp Transform Tool to nudge the pixels where I wanted them. Lastly I trimmed the selection and used both the clone tool and a general paintover to fix the areas that needed a rework. Finally I needed to improve the lighting. I decided to light up the area to the left around the incense burner to increase the contrast and bring some life to the image. I started by using the Free Select Tool to meticulously select the area I wanted to impact. After the selection was done I proceeded to brighten the area and applying a slight bloom effect. In the last stage I like to use ON1 Effects for the final postwork since I'm not fully familiar with GIMP as of date. But any application where you can increase contrast, improve/change saturation, balance the levels sliders and apply a circular edge toning/darkening are useful. Nothing beyond the basics is necessary. Of course, never use tools that change the product you are demonstrating. With applications like FilterForge you can design your own postwork process by connecting and micromanaging nodes where you can plug in user sliders. It may just render a bit slow at higher resolutions so that's an inherent limitation. Thanks for reading. If you are a GIMP user feel free to comment with tips that you use in your postwork process. While I enjoy using other tools as well it is great to promote free and open source software like GIMP. #GIMP #Promo #PromoArt #Render #Postwork #Daz #Studio #DazStudio #Genesis #Character #3D #Product #Art #Commission #ArtCommission
