Again, We Are All Still Alive!

[Dan]

So yesterday, for some reason, the world was meant to end. But, again, we are all still here.
Anyone have any idea what went wrong this time?

[BrandonTheG]

Nope .

[Dan]

Brandon;1022864']Nope .

Good answer.

There was no actual collision yesterday. Some people don't read the news stuff correctly or are too dumb to understand it so they just start rumors. The full test is being carried out on October 21st. Even if Hawking's theories are true, the black holes would not appear right away, it would take at least a couple of months until they can be seen and even longer until they actually effect anything.
Anyways according to CERN's lawyers the processes being carried out happen in the nature anyway and they are not doing anything to could harm anyone. But then again the project was well funded and so were the lawyers, if you catch my drift.

I couldnt stop laughing at everyone thinking we are all going to get sucked in to a blackhole lol.
I doubt very much they will even be able to make one.

I find it funny because the people saying it have no advanced degrees in science of any type.

Smashing ---- together will mostlikley get them all blown up and prob half the country where the lab is but thats no issue to me, mankind will not be able to create a blackhole, even if they can doubt it will ever get big enough to affect us.

We are like in 1mm of the universe.
What they are trying to do is recreate ---- on such a tiny tiny tiny tiny tiny small scale compared to that of the universe.

Edit: In case you guys haven't realized, earth is doomed, its just a matter of time.
If we dont start researching how things work on a bigger scale, we will have no where to go when the earth is 'finished' or the sun burns out.

That explains it.

lol wtf. I laughed when I visited the site.

Isn't the full potential of the machine going to be reached next year, when they really plan on getting the experiement working flawlessly and hope to get results? I'm sure they said it'll take a year or so to get the machine fully powered.

The only shocking thing about this though, is the price of the electricity bill. :o

[Darknight]

yes all them emissions pwning us from the sky.

[Skylar]

Long answer:

Yes.

Short answer:

Yes.

:beer:

hahahahahahaha :fangel:

I'd not be so worried about LHC; more of carbon emissions

[AdamJ]

2nd Skylar's post, Carbon emissions are wrecking the O-Zone layer.


The LHC is extremely secure and run under an extremely secure environment.

Yeah, yesterday they started sending one set of protons anti-clockwise around the ring at the speed of sound or light (one of them). Then in 4 weeks they send another set clockwise, then next year they smash them! If anything is to happen (which is probably will not) it will be next year :)

:lol: no. Calling the people that said we're all gonna die on that day dumb. Unless you were the original person to say that.... :eek2:

Was 99.9999997% of the speed of light actually

Shhhhhh! Nobody is meant to know. :cry2:

Shhhhhh! Nobody is meant to know.
Google knows all!

It's been indexed a million times on the interwebs. :bow:

Don't think we should worry so much about black holes. 100 years from now we will all be dead anyway.....

What about 2012? :eek2:

[Ben]

Why does it matter? Would you prefer to freak out over it all and prepare for some unknown force bringing on the apocalypse in 4 years, dreading the next day for what it could bring, only to have it be some hoax?

Or would you prefer to act like nothing was going to happen and it take you by surprise?

I think it's obvious which one I would choose from my word choice. I also don't believe in the 2012 bull---- anyway ...

Erm... Guys are we all that sure the LHC runs under a very tight environment?

[Dynash]

I was joking about 2012, I don't believe in that crap.
The website being hacked though, I can't see that controling the main system. Plus, even if they got anything from the server, and deleted it, I'm sure they'd have a backup of it all, and what would the hackers gain from the info collected? They couldn't sell it, since it'd be obvious who done it ;)

[JonnyH]

The fact they got in to prove they could is rather scary. Why hook something that powerful even up to the internet...

[Dynash]

It says they only added some files and destroyed a file, if there was anything worth taking, they would have taken it ;)

[JasonS]

To be honest, the CERN Linux distro is available free on the interwebs. Somebody probs downloaded it and found an exploit -

I highly doubt their reactor can be accessed from their web server.

[VibrantHOST]

i highly doubt that too.
