Well the butterfly thing is nonsense, quantum theory is flawed, and Schrödingers cat is neither dead or alive.

The common concept of the "Butterfly Effect" seems to be about figurative butterflies flapping wings eventually causing massive effects elsewhere.  However, the true meaning of the butterfly effect comes from a classic instability graph that showed a chaotic algorithm to form two lobes of possible solution paths and the diagram on paper looked like butterfly wings.  It had nothing to do with figurative butterflies flapping their wings in the jungle.  But since the mathematics behind the derivation of the chaotic graph results is too abstract for the non-scientifically minded, the mind of the common man picked up on the picture of the figurative butterfly thing and there was no stopping its spread.  But admittedly it's not a bad parable as long as you don't stretch it too far.

Yes, I was arguing against the common notion of the concept, which seems to ignore the momemtum of a tornado versus the momentum of the air a butterfly's wings can move.  It is true as the article says that "you could not remove a single grain of sand from its place without thereby ... changing something throughout all parts of the immeasurable whole".   But which effect a particular action has on the whole depends on a number of factors (including some which are not commonly recognized by mainstream science, which is why I'm sceptical to most of it's theories).  

But I didn't intend to start a scentific discussion, just stated my opinion in a slightly sarcastic remark, and will leave it at that...

Why do you believe that?

Yes, quantum physics would rather see the TOS as dead as Schrödingers cat.

No, but Schrödinger's cat is...unless you slap some clothes on her.

Well OK...

Nor did I.  In an equally teasing way I just seized on an opportunity to educate and throw water on a rampant misconception.  I will join you in leaving it at that...

I will however say that I realized that my remark: "which seems to ignore the momemtum of a tornado versus the momentum of the air a butterfly's wings can move" was a really bad and misleading attempt to explain what I really mean.  But I don't think this is the right place to elaborate further on this.

Well if you want your butterfly's wings to shine the dual lobe shaders are the way to go. 

Or did you post in the wrong thread?  I just saw another thread about exactly this.

Music through cheeze has a very blues sound.

I didn't say that, an expert did.  And no, she did not mean "philosophically", or "metaphorically".  She meant it literally! 

If you want to see (hear?) more craziness, google her name and "pickle filter".

Music through cheese, I was thinking something completely different (but[t] similar to music through beans).

...beans, beans the musical fruit
the more you eat
the more you toot
the more you toot

so let's have beans at every meal...

Please ignore me while i pretend to have a tablet.

I need to ignore all the new stuff no matter how pretty it looks

I can at least render my V4's and genesis 1's

even in DAZ studio with Dforce and iray 

everything now is just over the top because people with better rigs than mine demand it and they obviously have the money to buy it too

WendyLuvsCatz

Sadly this won't stop me giving DAZ money ......

....... there is so much nice legacy and Genesis 1&2 stuff I don't own yet ......

 

 

"......and a new Poser11pro install too

I am trying to ignore my new fitness tracker saying I have been inactive too long.  I think that is what it is complaining about.  I probably need to do my chore.  I am supposed to do it twice a day but I have not done it since yesterday morning.  I remembered too late last night and lost track of time this morning and had to go out before I got to it.

WendyLuvsCatz

Some psychological cattle prodding for all those with filters active

I have no filter myself so not so much news to me 

I just needed to dodge getting written warnings or arrested

I swear my skeleton wants to escape 

getting an Xray later today but doubt it will reveal much

I know exactly what you mean... why no obvious "block caller" option?... You have to go into a stupid unintuitive options menu that is the complete opposite of what it should look like.
Even better if you get uninvited spam in your calendar... no way to block the spammer without letting them know it's a live account... and no more "Block Third Party Cookies" option either...
