I have an even worse problem where I get these huge lumps on my head. I'll be driving along, texting or using a tablet, when there will be this huge deaccelerating feeling coupled with pain in forehead and aural impressions like breaking glass and bending metal, usually near traffic lights or backed up ramps during rush hour.
I hope the graphical rendering devs can iron out these problems.
But quantum mechanics is the most useful model of our daily reality that we have, verified by thousands of peer-reviewed experiments.
The only thing NOT known to have quantum nature is gravity, that's an open question..
None of those signals are detectable even at tens of light years; I laugh when I read of SETI statements "why if we just put 3,000 Megawatt equiv isotropic power into the Arecibo dish.....blah blah blah. then at 30 light years..."
We haven't even done that. We're radio silent thus far.
Optical SETI makes so much more sense, can cover HUGE range of frequencies, repeatedly target local star systems, and outshine our sun by orders of magnitude for a very brief pulse in which a lot of information could be encoded.
No, that's an irrational fear between your ears you invented. The illegal outsourced phone center in India, using one disposable U.S. cell phone number after another to harass you with their marketing scams, are not going to call your local police or emergency services, they have no means to do so. Feel free to aurally abuse them in any manner you choose.
Wrong, it's a famous conclusion by Dirac, verified by many experiments, that even with your two lasers a photon can only interfere with itself, *two different photons never interfere with each other*.
SETI is only looking at radio waves around their silly "water hole" frequencies. I wouldn't attempt comm with another star system that way, what self-respecting engineer would?

Quantum mechanical nature of the universe means measurement is the act of interfering with something in order to get some information, necessarily disturbing it
We can observe both particle and wave behavior at the same time. For example, a solid state detector system can pick up the photons from a dual slit experiment, and a famous variation is to send photon at a time to a two slit configuration. Over time the photons still land on "bright" parts of interference pattern but were detected individually as particles.
every dual slit experiment shows light behaving as both particle and wave, because every photon only interferes with itself. Two or more photons never interfere with each other.
not my experience, the couple stores I frequent in Chicago and Wheeling over the past decade have good people and various cables/connectors/components I've needed. Seems the business model was people would come in for one simple thing on emergency basis and see often also buy whatever cool thing was on sale (for example good headphone)
Howso? Plenty of quantum mechanical properties can be specified in finite number of bits. Polarization of photon can be specified in 1 bit for left or right handed, as example.
Photon does have angular momentum (you are right, not an orbital one), but that really just the same as "spin" with a helicity, plus or minus h-bar depending on whether right or left-hand polarized
We can add energy to your list; If you know frequency, you also know energy and momentum of photon
"Obamacare" had no robust public option for that reason; the Big Pharmy, Big Insurance and Big Healthcare chains instead get even more money. Corporate bitches in office wouldn't have it any other way.
Mar's "atmosphere" has about a half a percent of the pressure of Earth's.
The rovers do NOT get a nice helping of solar power while they hibernate for five months of martian winter.
Plucking a guitar string can teach about sound. or even stretching a vibrating rubber band. Anyway music boxes don't qualify for our discussion, they are "still current tech".
There is something to observe with the CD, but you'll have to crack out the microscope
"as evidenced by its use" No, people wasting time and money doing inefficient things proves nothing other than silliness. There are better ways for a company to deal with documents than typewriters, carbon paper, triplicate forms, printed office memos, etc.
But what happens when you need a revised document? type over? ocr and then into word processor?
you're just being silly with that typewriter. get with the times.
I use a company Apple laptop, must say it's very solid and robust compared to other leading laptop brands, and I sure appreciate having BSD on there as opposed to the other alternative my employer would have handed me, a windows thing. Don't have to worry about driver configuration issues either, the hardware designed for an OS and driver set. I drive two other screens with it on my desk, nice to have three total screens that work well together. Major softwares in the business/professional world can run on it, for some things there just aren't alternatives yet in the open source world.
Now at home I run GNU/Linux, on the two systems under my desk nvidia and radeon driver issues sometimes a pain. But there are things I have to do for work that just can't run on that platform, so I have to fire up windows 7 under vmware workstation. ew.

yes at same time, interfering (wave property) but only with itself (particle property).

I'll gladly remember that over Shatner's career as a "singer"
be funny if asteroid with few hundred cubic feet of gold hits the earth, which is not impossible

So a person's story used to make a fictional drama for entertainment purposes on TV turns out to be fictional drama made for entertainment?

Sorry, but the Democrats have fooled you; they are mega-corporate bitches too
Outlaw such checks, including for the entertainment cartel.

And those of us born long before then have seen the 1949 Aerocar, which every keeps reinventing, badly.
