Dynamic Gravity theory to explain dark matter, cosmic ray energy, etc.
Of course not, the point is how can you know if you are on the right track if you don't test the theory! If your theory accurately predicts the orbital period of the moon then you may be on to something, if it doesn't then you know your theory needs work. I'm sure you meant m/s^2 due to a typo. If the mass in the universe is more or less evenly distributed as observation shows, there should be no force or acceleration in any particular direction on a universal scale. Observation indicates that indeed there is no acceleration or even a velocity of the milky way in any direction at the universal level.

Research into plasma-based flight buoyancy attempt
I don't think plasma cosmology and the pilot wave theory are considered Newtonian, however I could be wrong on that.

Research into plasma-based flight buoyancy attempt
An OP that basically says you are going to ignore anyone that disagrees with your idea is not a good start for a discussion.

What are the benefits of understanding our free will?
I think they are. I see I got a down vote. I guess someone didn't like my WAG at an unanswerable question. Do we have freewill? I don't know, nor do I care and there is no real answer the question anyway. We can only go in circles arguing. Very boring for me. I'm out but you guys have fun.

What are the benefits of understanding our free will?
The only argument is there is no real evidence on whether we have free will or is the future already determined. Based on the lack of any evidence to guide us I will have to go with gut instincts. It feels like I have free will so that's what I'm going with.

Alternative to relativity (split from A problem to the theory of relativity ?)
Thanks, now what are the units of K? So what are the units of f?
-

What are the values and units of f and K?

What are the benefits of understanding our free will?
I was going to disagree but no matter how hard I try I can't force my fingers to type a negative response. So I guess we don't have free will.

g wrt height
Pi squared is an acceleration? Are you sure it isn't a force or a velocity?

Dynamic Gravity theory to explain dark matter, cosmic ray energy, etc.
The easiest way to understand your theory, I think, is to show us a simple calculation. Could you use your theory to calculate the orbital period of the moon? Thanks.

Fair enough.

Constant v Invariant
How does that apply to the discussion?

Alternative to relativity (split from A problem to the theory of relativity ?)
Google "derive e=mc2". Wrong if you leave off the units the answer is meaningless. Is r in km or furlongs? F = ma says nothing about energy. The equation says, for instance, kg times m/s^2 results in Newtons which is units of force.

No particular reason at all. What is that supposed to mean?

Alternative to relativity (split from A problem to the theory of relativity ?)
This is getting really out of the realm of science and math into uh, uh... I don't even know. If you call some random equation a force it does not magically become a force. If I say F = m * s, it doesn't mean that I have discovered a new force it just means I'm wrong. Ok, that equation is trivially false.

Alternative to relativity (split from A problem to the theory of relativity ?)
I don't know what you mean by that. Bottom line if your equation for a force does not have the units of force then your equation is wrong, No.

Alternative to relativity (split from A problem to the theory of relativity ?)
WHAT?!? That ain't close to how science works. You can't say you have a 'new' force that has the different units that every other force. If the 'thing' doesn't have the units of force - it ain't a force Your inability to understand equations does not mean we can throw out mathematical and logical rules in science and just make stuff up. I really think you should change the "we" to "I".

Evolution (split from The concept of Time)
You mean evolution used to happen but it doesn't anymore? Really? Bigger than what?
-
Alternative to relativity (split from A problem to the theory of relativity ?)
As Genady pointed out the algebra is wrong. Acceleration is not unitless and the force equation makes no sense and has the wrong units.

Current state of the debate between free will and determinism in philosophy and neuroscience
Thanks for "getting it", I thought it was funnier than hell, but I am easily amused.
-
Current state of the debate between free will and determinism in philosophy and neuroscience
What are you some kind of machinist?
-
Current state of the debate between free will and determinism in philosophy and neuroscience
I think at some point there will be a machine that is so sophisticated that there will be no test to tell if it is sentient or not, whether it is 'really' sentient or not seems irrelevant
-
What are the benefits of understanding our free will?
I have given it thought and we obviously have free will. You have managed to confuse your self by silly philosophical arguments. Of course I know what your response will be because you unfortunately do not have free will and will have no choice except to give a silly response.

Alternative to relativity (split from A problem to the theory of relativity ?)
Demonstrably false. No, that is simply an arm waving supposition not a fact This is just word salad. This is either a misunderstanding of NASA or a lie. Pass the the balsamic vinaigrette please.
