These machines are amazing!
Automata were developed by the Greeks and Chinese way before this. At the same time there were jacquard looms for making silk cloth that used a series of punch cards, and were more akin to early computers than thie writing boy

This outline covers reconnecting the protological framework to validated theories in quantum mechanics, relativity, and particle physics, while mapping patterns in astrophysics and cosmology onto the proposed 9D architecture and higher realms.
It then explores avenues for novel predictions, including potential higher-spatial phenomena, computational capabilities transcending limits, and proposed empirical tests to validate the unique phenomenological signatures implied by the pluriversal model across dimensions.
The key is to demonstrate both rigorous consistency with our established understanding, while also elucidating an expanded, richer ontological landscape transcending current physics with new empirical prospects for groundbreaking discoveries.
Let me know if you need any section expanded or reframed for this chapter bridging the metaphysical system to the frontiers of physical inquiry and experimental observation.
We as a society of people around the entire world! Can Not build these! Nor can we build such ornate buildings either! Have we evolved or devolved?
Rather we could build them, but they would be astronomically expensive. The dirt cheap oppressed skilled labor force + the perceived value of the end product doesn't exist anymore. Same for the Eiffel Tower. Today financing the achievements such as the Space 🚀 Projects is the same though. Slave Labor. Massive involuntary "taxes". What is still fascinating is the ancient Astronomy and precision monolithic stone machining and construction, which can not be duplicated today. How ?
What the fuck are you talking about?
I've been building wee, self designed clockwork mechs for over 40yrs now. Both the design and building of these wondrous wee chaps has become so much easier since I have modern s/ware to help with the maths and CAD.
You're not one of these "they said we 'don't have the tech' to go back to the moon, so, I won't bother checking just what this actually means" folk, by any chance are you?
I couldn't build an ornate building, but I know people who can, and should I wish, I could learn the basics of it and put this into practice.
Your use of "evolved", rather than "progressed" is a bit worrying, too.
@@anarchords1905 Obviously at a higher plane of intelligence than you. I love you "Superior People" who are incapable of educated discourse, but run straight to personal insult. Many ancient sites around the World cannot be built with the same precision, nor explained, using Technology known to be extant at the time they were created. You should reserve yourself to something more you're academic & scientific level. Perhaps like Legos.
