The number above is... deep breath...

Fourteen quintillion, Six hundred and ninety six quadrillion, five hundred and sixty three trillion, four hundred and twenty seven billion, three hundred and forty five million, six hundred and thirty seven thousand, five hundred and thirty miles.

They currently use parallax to measure up to a couple of thousand light years, after that it becomes such a small movement that it's undetectable. From there onwards they are pretty much guessing. (There could be as much as a 20% error margin for distances over a few thousand light years)

So no, I don't think the Mayans could measure stellar distances. We can't either.
I think they are using variable stars in some way to measure distance for those farther than parallax can do.

And raaid. I think it's almost time to bring you in for reprogramming.

The upper-management has been a bit concerned about you of late that you are becoming much to "aware" of processes that the docile masses take for granted and we don't want you becoming the heroine of some new Hollywood-like movie where you overthrow us.

That would not be good for business so it's best you report in either at your local gas station or behind the curtain at your local black-suit habadashery so we can make the process more bearable for you. Otherwise we may have to continue tracking you with the usual satellites, streetcams, tapped phones, and tv-cams until the ideal moment arrives. We could always wait for the newly formulated chem-trails in your area to take effect but that'll depend on how much farther you intend to dig into things.

Resistance is ultimately futile so make things easier on yourself.

haha you caught me, my plan is to become superhuman and ovethrow the system:

find a way to boost the mind as to at least be able to scan others minds and share it with the world

do you imagine a world without lies and the now allmighty baddies exposed to sahme seelling sunflower seeds on the strrets

winking slightly strong i stimulate the pineal gland calcified in adults by fluorine which acumulates most there, i know cause this not only improves my sight but makes me see triple sometimes, an optometrist taught me to do this

meditating while seeing double i develope the corpus callosum by increasing hugely the info going through it connecting both hemispheres

incidentally teh corpus callosum is the only part of the brain that can be developed

most probably i wont succed and maybe end one eyed or epileptic but the prizes worth the chance

edit:

omg was gonna play countestrike and then see the screen in stereoscopic 3d just as a 3d movie as i had done sometimes and i just discovered what i did:

look very vey slightly crossed eye and let the brain do the suoperposition

i think if i master seeing very slightly double i will recover the lost in devolved humans 3d perception

i was overdoing the seeing double, its more difficult seeing slightly double than a lot double

apparently the way a human should look should be not converging the eyes on the object but crossing the rays from the eyes before the object

isnt it curious that when you have any artifical steroscopic perception you are actually looking slightly crosseyed?

Good. The world's full of normality.

I like your posts, they are so leftfield they come in from the right.

I think you could well be looking for stuff that isn't there, but I'm quite cynical.

Why the Mayans? 2012?

I was going to reply to this thread cross eyed, but I accidentally discovered a quantum singularity in my room while doing so, and I'm now disin

oh the machines are beatiufll things in my fantasy world:


its the cyborgs to be afarid of

when i was about to get my world record at gtr evo stress made me have some hallucinations

wild wild then i read some bs about a record going through a hurricane back in time

i saw some super giant tesla coils in las vegas in tv

and in the history channel i saw this jewl

jump to 11:00 and watch this phisicist proclaiming he is becoming god, not a god but GOD

does it sound familiar? i bet certain book was written in the future



and talking on driving through a hurricane back in time:

check this out:



yes that machine is remoted control

cyborgs love understeering to calculate the exact cornering speed

but normal humans prefer to use oversteering(just as ny plane fighter) to use the force on predicting a big failure

machines are actually beatifull machines cyborgs are brief in any time line:



edit:

oh the neutorn star video is priceless:

i can check when they use blue screen or not with my depth percetpion, they play with that all the time

and have you checked how the video plays with depth all the time, its like made to be seen in 3d

and dont miss the vertical hipnotic bars that appear in thwe behind screen of the video briefly, yes if you record tv witha mobil you can see some bizarre verticals bars at certain distances

edit:

well im onto something flaming hot here, i cant sleep from excitement, that and the coffe i had cause the so much fun im having

i can control my depth perception in real life by now, not normally but i can do it for examplo looking at my bed from the feet

if i look normally i see it flat

but if i cross slightly my eyes as to offset both images slightly my brain overimposes them giving me a 3d effect

this is thrilling

i know for what i rememebr i havent ever had 3d pereption

i dont know about the rest, i dont even know if the rest are acting im just sure of what i perceive not what it is what i percieve and that my family loves me about the rest im unsure

but seems converging the eyes objective is to have more or less depth perception

the more you cross your eyes the more exagerated the depth perception is as long as you dont start seeing double which means your brain stooped overimposing the images

also my shortsightedness is healing by the minute

could magicians be real? you know people with powers pretending

edit:

check out this stereogram and think about this:

how can your brain overimpose both images if from an optical geometry this is imposible, the vertical lines would shape an X



edit:

hey check this sublimnal:

in the last second of the wormhole racing video appears a momified hand:



does anybody else see it or is it an hallucination?
