I'm looking for a UVB meter/test within the normal index range that is reliable enough to measure and set up my avian UV lamps for my budgies. Can anybody give me tips what to look for, makes etc.

You reproduce the experiment and see if the results tally. The more people that perform the experiment with concurring results, the greater the communal confidence in the outcome that this is how nature behaves. If it reaches a sufficient level of expert consensus it becomes accepted as part o the scientific corpus and is called a 'Theory'. This is scientific method 101.

And they deliver it with absolute confidence.

Why even think about a reality outside of what we can know because it is absolutely unknowable, Models describe parts of the behaviour of nature, which in itself is one seamless whole.

Har har. You're the one being a 504.

I can't remember how to write 1, 1000, 51, 6 and 500 in roman numerals.. IM LIVID

I can go with that. Basically, in the absence of anything there is no space. Something has to exist in order for space to also exist. In the same sense that if there is no object to measure it's dimensions, then length doesn't.

The moment of nuclear decay is not deterministic. Heisenberg is inherently probabilistic. Cosmological and biological evolution being a mix of probability and determinism. More simply, we can determine how two particles interact, as determined by their fixed properties, but we can't say when it will happen, due to the stochastic nature of collisions. Reality is a mix of both.

Would the zero point energy not be the 'substance' of space when a volume is analysed down to its most basic component... under scientists present understanding? I mean substance in the sense of some phenomenon pervading throughout the volume.

My guess is it might be some way of mitigating long term degradation and part of a maintenance/longevity strategy. Excessive internal heat shortens Li-ion battery life, as an example, so, perhaps sequential use helps overall cooling.

I would say: The description of reality changes with each new scientific discovery and science adapts, but a religion's voice stays the same. Science describes how nature behaves and religion describes how to live. Creating what are actually pseudo-arguments between the two is not logically useful and intellectually futile. One approach describing the faults of the other is outside of their respective sphere of interests.

Why not just take the correction with grace and preserve the intent of your thread instead of potentially sending it off the rails?

I think it demonstrates the level of plasticity the nervous system is capable of to keep itself functioning.

I think a simple interpretation is one is a schematic construct of the other that contains sufficient details but no more than necessary.

It's a way of separating the naive from their money.

Whatever way you do it, the speakers need to be wired to their own amplifiers i.e made active, to drive the speaker units. They need current and a wireless signal. You would have wall sockets in the vicinity of each speaker. Google 'convert analog speaker to wireless active'. I've deliberately put the US version of 'analogue' because it will likely get more hits.

Sounds good to me. My error is not going back far enough when conditions were different.

It would be interesting to know how it evolved uvc resistance because afaik uvc doesn't reach the ground because it is too energetic and reacts with oxygen to form ozone high up in the atmosphere.

From the kids I know, they would be in a state of mortal grief if they were disconnected. That game 'Second Life' is a reality now, it seems, for a lot of people and they willingly give up their privacy, allowing companies to track them 365 days a year. Perfect for budding authoritarian regimes.

Chill out and learn how we converse. When in Rome... We mostly stick to the rules of the scientific method, but we aren't averse to bantering. The fact you put" "scientific" arguments" as you did suggests you aren't really into viewing things in an objective way and like to colour your thoughts with random, pulled out of your arse opinions. If you talk bollocks without references expect pushback. The first thing I do when I join a group is figure out peoples range and level. You might do the same.
