What if that mile wide mirror was focused on at point on the earth's surface? wouldn't that do some environmental damage?

It is a cephalopod, an octopus, it is not any of the things it mimics. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mimic_octopus

I guess it will come down to how much we support Ukraine. If Russia uses nukes in Ukraine then the use of nukes has been normalised. I think the west and Russia would come to nuke blows almost immediately, if Russia's nuclear arsenal is as good as it's conventional arsenal the war will be short and a winner will emerge out of the radioactive rubble, Russia will be rebuilt with western money and emerge better than before. Typical modus operandi of the US. The whole destroy us all trope will be tested for sure. Then again maybe it will wait until we get battleships that can fire nuclear tip artillery hundreds of miles.

Let us hope no one will do this.

Yes i agree but using them would be suicidal, I would like to think even Putin is not insane enough to do that.

Recent events in Ukraine would seem to indicate Russian military is a paper Bear with no tail. I'm not sure I can get behind the idea that russia is a threat to anyone but themselves.

Would charge and or rotation change the size of the volume of the event horizon? Would a ring singularity form in a rotating black hole? Could charge expand the radius of the event horizon by electric charge repulsion? Since the electromagnetic force is stronger than gravity could sufficient charge cause a black hole to expand until it had no event horizon?

I have to ask, what type of black holes is everyone discussing? How about a charged rotating black hole? Would these attributes change the conversation? If so in what ways?

There are solutions to the black hole that postulate a ring shaped singularity at the center which give a possible portal to another universe. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kerr–Newman_metric#:~:text=In 1965%2C Ezra "Ted",called the Kerr–Newman metric. I know everyone hates videos but this video explains the idea of a rotating black hole in quite interesting ways.

I understand that but what happens beyond the event horizon? No one really knows is my take and matter can fall, past the event horizon faster than light? I had forgotten that all things go to the future not the past beyond the event horizon but since i am speculating, maybe instead of our big bang maybe the matter falling into the singularity ends up in our future big bang. I know some theorists think out universe resulted from a black hole in another universe but that answer will probably have to wait for TOE.

Black holes stop time at the event horizon but it was explained to me that beyond the event horizon matter can travel faster than light and so time travel becomes possible? Yes, that is exactly what I am speculating. Time travel beyond the event horizon is what I am suggesting, all black holes connect to the big bang. Singularities make no sense As would I but the parameters of black holes are weird anyway.

I know this is far out there but is the concept of all black holes ending up at the big bang make sense? this just popped in my head bit black holes end up in a singularity. could this singularity be the the big bang? black holes could could result in a hole in time and space and it makes sense that they could could connect with the singularity of the big bang. have any any scientific papers suggested this possibility?

So you have no evidence a god exists?

I certainly wouldn't send them to hell for simply not believing. Can you give any evidentiary support for a god much less your version of god?

OIC, we need a irony font.

So you eschew personal responsibility?

I love that hot stuff, I seldom cook that i don't add habanero peppers at least! I can eat the really hot stuff and it can give you a sense of Hmmm, but the really hot stuff lacks taste. I'm not sure if Jimmy's friend can eat the hot stuff but it might be worth trying to slowly up her tolerance for hot sauces like Sriracha.

I found this to be interesting!

WOW! Maybe that is why i crave spicy foods and put sriracha sauce on everything I eat.

I agree, a wobbly tire on a superbike is a non started for sure. I had one of the first Kawa 900s, it rode like it had an extra hinge in the frame. Annoying as hell to ride in a tight curve, in the mountains that could be a death flaw for sure.

Meditation does seem to help. now if I could just motivate myself to meditate on the beach. I'd have to find a cattle field, not that common here on the coast. A spore print might help. It's not a Joke, i hope Jimmy finds a method to help his friend.

Good luck with that, I am thinking of restoring an old yamaha vmax, still looking for the right one but a 1998 model is my preferred target.
