Yeah that's what the large hadron collider is for, everyone knows that.

I wanted to research it myself since I didn't know how Redbox flow batteries operate. It is two giant tanks of liquid energy. When there's extra electricity from wind or solar, pumps move special vanadium-based liquids through a stack of cells, storing that energy as a chemical change. When electricity is needed later, the process runs in reverse and the liquids generate power for the grid. Unlike lithium batteries, the energy is stored in the liquid tanks, so making the battery bigger is mostly a matter of building larger tanks. The Swiss project will store about 2.1 GWh of energy—enough to help balance renewable power on a massive scale—and was chosen partly because redox-flow batteries are non-flammable, long-lasting, and can be cycled tens of thousands of times with little degradation

Essentially yeah, it's heavily linked to novelty. For instance the drive to somewhere new or unusual is always longer than the drive home because we've already seen it so our neurons just dump all the information that's familiar aka not novel. If someone does the same thing in the same place for years then time flashes by but if they are having many novel experiences then it feels like a lot more time has passed.

So in short the longer we live the more we have seen, the more we have seen the more is familiar aka auto dumped information by our neurons before it even touches the level of our conscious mind.

There is actually some science behind this. People's perception of time literally speeds up as they age. Our youth feels like forever, our young adult years still feel long and at that point it all feels like it will be forever, and then you blink and you're 56 wondering where the time went. It's a really well known phenomenon.

Did he pass out?

Funny enough, that line can also be interpreted as "thou shalt not murder" which really changes the meaning. I prefer the standard translation though as a pacifist.

Well now we know which side of the force OP is on.

I thought creating echo chambers and dopamine loops was the whole point. Kinda reminds me of this CGP Grey video

Lol to anyone who knows what the image is from.

Here is the trailer for anyone that's interested. Kinda gives campy stoner flick vibes. Thanks for the post OP, I'll have to give it a watch.
