> How do you generate a non-infinity block
> Are there more than one block containing infinty

I tired everything, and manage to obtain blocks of size 6... but I think it's wrong, to do so I have removed all edges incident to the vertices forming the edge to encode, it gives me 6 edges but it is not two distinct triangles. I'm kinda lost.

>They set up multiple live streams with multiple cameras
>The cameras must last long enough and be high quality
>They film astronauts before entering the ship, like when they put their suits on
>The cameras sometimes film each other to prove they're real
>These cameras are meant to film the entire trip, from both before they enter the ship and up until they get near the American flag in the moon
>If one camera stops working, that's what the other cameras are for
>There's additional cameras that will not be in the trip: They're meant to record the astronauts (And their cameras) and some stay on Earth to record the ship leaving
TLDR: They plan a trip with multiple cameras where astronauts travel to the moon landing where it all started just to prove it's real.
It's just a matter of budget and having the best assets available.

Funniest thing about all of this is that he's made himself radioactive right at the start of his career. Administrators will put up with a bunch of dumb shit from professors but the one thing they won't tolerate are attacks on the administration itself. You can trade sex for grades or "borrow" university property and the administration will cover it up but go after the administrators and you're toast. He's not going to be hired by any school anywhere near as high profile as UCLA now. He's going to end up somewhere like Georgia Southern University that has little choice in who they hire because no one wants to live in Statesboro, Georgia if they have other options.

No, but it's not a sign of the opposite either. I don't think studies have been made that check if internal monologue correlates with intelligence.

It's also very dificult to make studies about things purely happening in someone's head because how do you accurately put these things into words so you know the other party understood exactly what you experience.

What happens with flies, deer, mice, birds, fish, ants, wolves, spiders, etc.
Even if they live in warmer places like Texas and Florida, there are rare days when even such places have very cold weather that a human will die in few hours if he isn't inside house.

Even if human system puts too warm blood into the hands and loses a lot of energy, when the hand gets cold (5c) it loses less energy so it should be the same as dog has a paw with 5C even if he has counter current.

what is the perfect placement of bed, computer, furniture, in a room?
How to calculate the perfect placement of everything?
I have a room, window, radiator, door, bed, computer, speakers, one piece of furniture.
What is the perfect placement of every item and my body?
How should my body be aligned during sleep? Should my feet be in south, north, east, west direction? Do Earth magnetic field affect brain and heart?
When I use computer, should screen be in the direction of window or away? If it's in direction of window, the sun will attack my monitor and I will not see anything.
I shouldn't block radiator with bed and furniture. What else?
What if the jews will shoot machine gun from the window into the room when I sleep?

And those black surgeons are smarter than the average person in the US. Which is why they dedicated their efforts to completing medical school and work serving the hospitals. While the average person in the US goes into thousands of dollars in credit card debt buying fast food from door dash which sends them into the hospitals eventually to rack up tens of thousands in medical debt.

The justice system always pays out regardless of circumstances because they just want cheap labor.

It's cheaper to pay out for "racism" because they don't want to tell the government to spend millions adding hours to the school day so kids are on the street less, learn more and teachers get better compensation.

It's cheaper to pay out for "accidentally" killing some one instead of paying everyone at the police station more money so they can have recruits who are well trained and less trigger happy.

It's cheaper to pay out for "institutionalizing" people in jail instead of telling the private corporations to pay their non-criminals more money so the prison labor subsidization racket can stop.

Several months ago I was recording myself outside of my apartment, and upon watching the recording, there was a serious irregularity that I do not remember hearing, which was an emergency siren along with a distorted voice saying something incomprehensible.
That said, is the likely just an error in memory or proper awareness, or can your brain be reconfigured so as to not detect certain wavelengths like types of broadcasts that other types of instrumentation is capable of recording?

Even were I to post the video, you could just add an extra layer of scrutiny and say “You really heard the transmission, larper.”
The actual video proves nothing, so keep to the subject at hand, which is scientific in nature and just vaguely borders on the paranormal, which is that can neural oscillations be reformatted that external wavelengths are canceled out, similar to an interference pattern?

You are making this all up. There is no recording. There never was. You are lying, and you are bad at it.

>>16455254
I am not, and why you fixate on this makes you look stupid because even if I were lying it changes nothing to the question at hand other than there being “proof” that this has happened, when it could be easily dismissed on some other type of rational grounds.

So, because you’re retarded, does anyone else have an answer for this question?
>>
>>16455262
Your set up of the event relies on a recording you refuse to provide. Without the event, there is no question.
There is no data. There are no facts. You want /sci/ to indulge you with pure speculation for your own enjoyment.
Your thread belongs on /x/.
And you are really bad at this.
>>
>>16455275
How is there no data when I’m supplying a claim?

Are you going to analyze the recording with a type of machine, or are you just going to listen to it and confirm, yes, there was a siren and distorted voice that I claim to not have heard at the time?

The actual recording doesn’t matter in the context of the question, you mon, it’s just there as an initial reason for why the question was proposed.
Bad at what?
Lying or making you dumb faggot?
Because I’m doing neither and you’re just doing the latter.
