“Ultimately it increases entropy… let me tell you about the heat death of the universe…”
“No, Mom! I’m still afraid of the False Vacuum monster laying underneath my ground state!”
If those were likely to happen during our lifetime then they would have already. Now prion disease…
Good night!
Scare me with prion disease?
Yes, this answer, the kid fucked around (asked questions), now it’s time to find out.

Elect-ro-weak and Higgs field
Staying in a false staaaate
Tun-nel, tun-nel, it alllll falls dowwwwwnThen there are no mass-es
And, more, no inter-act-ions
Mass-less, mass-less, no a-toms nowwwwI listened to this in my head, where did it go?

So scientists are not entirely certain about the heat death of the universe. The heat death is the most reasonable prediction given what we know but there could be a force acting across the universe that may very slowly reverse the expansion of the universe that we have yet to discover and cause a big crunch over a ridiculously large amount of time. The fact is predictions that far in the future aren’t really very useful.
I read a SciFi book where there was a group in the world that does general science in the name of averting the heat death of the universe.
Ah yes, the ol’ “If a tree falls in the woods does it make a sound?” approach to preventing the death of the universe.
I don’t quite understand. Care to elaborate?
Existence is in the eye of the beholder. For something to exist it must be observed.
It sounds like in the book you read performing general science would go towards observing the universe preventing its heat death?
I dunno if fully applicable, but that’s what I got out of it :D
It rolls up into the other side of the cassette. Just flip it over.
I thought the sentence was going to lead to something like “It rolls up into the other 8 inaccessibly tiny dimensions of our space.”
I love your oldschool explanation though!
Heat. Everything ends up as heat.
Until the day that even heat dies.
Well, heat just spread over a larger area but it doesn’t get destroyer nor turn into any other form of energy.
But it doesn’t die per se.
If you consider particle excitement to be the definition of heat and subparticle fields to be different forms of energy then it does actually change, but that’s just semantics.
If all discernable heat is unobservable and unobtainable, then semantics don’t matter. Everything still dies. I’d include “heat” in that mix, but that’s waxing philosophical
Well not all sound.
But yes 99.99%
So where do smells go?
Just open a window. I’m sure they noticed, but they’ll be cool about it.
they get trapped in your nose hairs, this is why old people have really stinky noses.
Really? How can you smell?
If my words did glow with the gold of sunshine And my tunes were played on the harp unstrung Would you hear my voice come through the music? Would you hold it near as it were your own? It’s a hand-me-down, the thoughts are broken Perhaps they’re better left unsung I don’t know, don’t really care Let there be songs to fill the air Ripple in still water When there is no pebble tossed Nor wind to blow
It keeps traveling. If you splash some water, where does the wave go? Same question - it terms into something you can no longer see or hear… It never goes away. It becomes part of the world, forever
Music is what you hear - but it was only ever sound waves
The Langoliers eat it
You absorb it into your soul and it changes you irreversibly forever.
As the waves from ocean, the music crashes on the beaches in your ears
And slowly erodes it.
What?
we hang it on a wall of silence in the room of our imagination
Where does the light go when you flip the switch?
Check your fridge.
The best and the worst go straight to your brain and live there rent free.
Unfortunately, nobody has figured out how toget rid of the bad songs that drown out the good ones.
Everyone knows this duh!
Into your heart!
Sounds move very very fast, faster than a runner or a car, so it goes very very far away.
So like can i get like a net and catch it? Like its my music i paid for so like i gotta keep it for safe keeping. Do i gotta go to another town and get it that way???
Lmao im joking Good explanation tho
But gets slower and more tired as he runs, until he dies?
It’s still there, it’s just in the past now.
It goes into your memory. That’s why you can remember a song that you heard before.
