sam_handelman writes "The nytimes has another astrophysics article up. Free subscription etc. It talks about how inflation predicts multiple universes, this week. Dennis Overbye wrote the article, which is nice if lightweight. More info on the theory of inflation. Inflation, which is harebrained on first examination, actually predicts stuff, giving it credibility. Want to be the Right Pinky of God? It may yet be possible."
Personally, I'm having trouble reconciling the theory of inflation with a few well established notions about the universe. Does this mean that there are many turtles supporting other planets almost identical to our own?
Can anyone explain why I keep coming here? Every day at work, probably a dozen times. I hate the stories, I hate the editors. I'm not a big fan of Linux. I hate almost all of you, and I loathe the group-think that goes on here. It oozes out of all the highly modded comments... the /. party line.
Because we're mind control experts. We know you hate us, but we just love to have you around telling us how much you hate us, so we force you to come back. insert obligatory "all your base are belong to us" joke here
I'll be the brain :)
Got brain?
Great - and we thought the flat earthers were bad enough...

Don't tell Alan Greenspan about the inflationary universe. He'll try to control it with interest rates.

Why oh Why must the [editors] post these type of articles early in the morning! My head is going to hurt all day now!
thanks slashdot!
to understand this theory, all you have to do is visit your favorite pr0n site using IE. you see the way your screen fills with an endless swarm of pop-up windows, each with their own content? think of those as little universes, each separate from the others, but united in their love of barely legal asian teens.

Multiverses?
You mean this might mean that somewhere in the multiverse there might be a universe comprised entirely of "people" that look exactly like Lance and Britney?
Excuse me while I (and the rest of the "me's" in the multiverse) go out and hang ourselves....

Silly humans, still debating simple things like evolution, astrophysics, and whether Star Trek or Star Wars is better(non-geeks: read that as "penis size"); and yet you still wonder why alien civilizations haven't contacted you yet.
We're still grappling with the galactic pickle matrix.
