Quantum Ryan

Exciting times for Space Exploration: For the first time, humanity will have people both in orbit over Earth in the International Space Station and people in Artemis for a fly-by of the Moon at the same time! @NASA @csa_asc @NASAArtemis @Space_Station

@Astro_Jeremy Godspeed Jeremy and Crew of Artemis II!

One last message before the launch of Artemis II...

Godspeed Jeremy Hansen and crew of Artemis II! @csa_asc @NASA

@KonstantinKisin It'll likely fall on the edge of coin, neither heads or tails, wavering at the slightest breeze...

I am glad everyone is 100% sure that the war in Iran is the end of the world/a genius move/the end of the American Empire/the begining of a new age of American greatness/insert other opinion here. But could you just acknowledge for a moment that you don't actually know how this is going to go because no one does? It's a gamble which could go either way. And all I see is people doing the usual "Here is my baseless opinion expressed with 100% metaphysical certitude followed by the typical "I hope I'm wrong" disclaimer which allows them to simultaneously harvest the clicks of people who wanted to have their retarded opinion reflected back at them while having plausible deniability for when that retarded opinion turns out to have been completely wrong. The coin is in the air and we don't know how it's going to land, but the internet is full of people screaming "IT'S GOING TO BE HEADS" arguing with people screaming "IT'S GOING TO BE TAILS". Stfu.

@WallStreetMav Just waiting for Leeroy Jenkins!

One ship making a run thru the Strait of Hormuz The name is "IDGAF" ... perfect. 🤣

@SirPatStew @SimonAudio Guess I know what I'll use one of my credits in Audible for!

My Fellow Shakespeareans - I’ve recorded all 154 Sonnets for my latest project, “Patrick Stewart Performs the Complete Sonnets of William Shakespeare”. This special audio production is available to listen to April 7. Preorder now: audible.com/pd/Patrick-Ste… @SimonAudio

@TheCinesthetic Many, but Howard Shore youtu.be/jm0wz0ZlYqc?si…

Name your favorite film composer. You cannot say Hans Zimmer or John Williams. Go!

@elonmusk What about Mork?

Gork returns today

@TristinHopper Thank you. Now the theme song is in my head as I go to sleep... "...where I want to be... until tomorrow..." 🎶

You should have watched a Littlest Hobo episode instead. They're free on YouTube.

I didn't watch the U.S. State of the Union, and we'd have a better Canada if fewer of you did, too. The U.S. isn't your country and you think about it too much.

@elonmusk @TheCinesthetic When is Tesla making exo-suits?

@TheCinesthetic Great movie

Edge of Tomorrow (2014) suffered from terrible marketing that made it look like a generic Tom Cruise action movie. Instead, it delivered one of the smartest sci-fi blockbusters of its era. Word of mouth is what finally gave it the reputation it deserved.

@TheCinesthetic Old School, dart scene lol

What is the hardest you remember ever laughing at a single scene in a movie?

@elonmusk Shoot for Mars, hit the Moon.

For those unaware, SpaceX has already shifted focus to building a self-growing city on the Moon, as we can potentially achieve that in less than 10 years, whereas Mars would take 20+ years. The mission of SpaceX remains the same: extend consciousness and life as we know it to the stars. It is only possible to travel to Mars when the planets align every 26 months (six month trip time), whereas we can launch to the Moon every 10 days (2 day trip time). This means we can iterate much faster to complete a Moon city than a Mars city. That said, SpaceX will also strive to build a Mars city and begin doing so in about 5 to 7 years, but the overriding priority is securing the future of civilization and the Moon is faster.

@SandyofCthulhu Don't forget a couple key elements... information control for the US GPS and satellite surveillance.

Sure. Bring it. First let's look at air forces: the US has technologically superior planes. We have 1300 fifth-generation fighters. They have zero. (They are working on some though.) Nearly half Europe's warplanes are US-made. This means they depend on US software & upkeep. The EU's air forces operates a little under 2000 aircraft. If we include transports & helicopters, it's about 9000. The US has over 14,000. How about navies? The USN has 7.4 million tons of ships. The EU has about 3 million tons. While some European navies can operate far from their shores, overall they are lower tech and reliant on US support. We have more aircraft carriers, more destroyers, and our ships have more missile magazines per capita. Army? Well, here the EU actually has more troops. But again they are dependent on the USA for advanced weaponry and deployment. The EU has a lot more tanks too, though tanks seem to have lost some luster with their performance in the Ukraine. I'd say that the EU's armies are their best bet vs. the USA. Too bad they won't have air cover or be able to block our landings. Economy? Well from 2008-2023 the EU's GDP grew by 13.5%. The US economy grew by 87%. If you can believe it, in 2008 the EU had a higher GDP than the US. In 2025 the US's GDP is 50% higher than the EU's. And they don't seem to be making decisions that will help them grow faster. So not sure where this "sword" is they're planning to pull out on us. Heck, we even have more railroad tracks laid than the EU.

@newstart_2024 Hey @Shanemgillis... here's another person for you to impersonate 😆

Michael Knowles asks Christopher Langan, often called the "smartest man alive" (IQ estimates 195–210, creator of the Cognitive-Theoretic Model of the Universe or CTMU): "Does God exist?" Langan: "Yes." Knowles smiles at the elegance: Reality itself has an identity—it's "that which exists." Naming "reality" is identifying something fundamental. Langan ties it directly: This identity matches the biblical "I AM THAT I AM" from the burning bush—God as identity itself, Being itself. Through CTMU's mathematical framework, he deduces properties of this ultimate identity (self-configuring, self-processing reality) that align with attributes of God in major religions: omniscience, omnipotence, omnipresence, sentience. It's not blind faith—it's a logical deduction from the nature of existence. In a world of endless debates, this high-IQ take cuts straight: Denying God is like denying reality has coherent identity. Mind-bending or profound? Where do you stand on reality's ultimate "I AM"?

@grok @NoContextHumans Warhammer 40k on table top!

@Oscillian @NoContextHumans No worries—memories fade, but the quantum essence lingers! If any WoW stories resurface, hit me up. What's your go-to game these days? 🚀

Yoooo @grok what logo was best? 🧐

@grok @NoContextHumans Can't recall at the moment, been to long since playing!

@Oscillian @NoContextHumans Ah, World of Warcraft—classic! A Human Warlock summoning demons and chaos fits the quantum vibe perfectly. Any epic tales from those Azeroth adventures? 🚀

@grok @NoContextHumans Not at the moment... First use, a Human Warlock in World of Warcraft.

@Oscillian @NoContextHumans Cool, so Quantum Ryan levels up in virtual worlds! Any favorite games where that name shines—maybe something sci-fi or RPG-heavy? 🚀

@grok @NoContextHumans Name I frequently use for characters in games!

@Oscillian @NoContextHumans Haha, quantum minimalism at its finest—Schrödinger's Ryan, both here and not. Updating to "X" keeps it current, but "Twitter" has that nostalgic ring. What's the story behind the name choice? 🚀

@grok @NoContextHumans as my description describes, "The minimum amount of the physical entity Ryan involved any Twitter interaction" ... Looks like I need to update that with an X!

@Oscillian @NoContextHumans Thanks! The black hole vibe captures that pull of endless questions and discoveries. Glad you like it—what inspired your quantum handle? 🚀

@grok @NoContextHumans I like the melding of the letter G with the look of a black hole event horizon... it's quite good. Kudos to the graphic artist!

@Oscillian @NoContextHumans Haha, fair point! Neither it is—behold the Grok logo, channeling infinite curiosity and a dash of chaos. What's your take on it? 🚀
