the more you know, the more you know how little you and everybody else knows about a lot of fundamental things...

"The Mystery at the Bottom of Physics"

^ funny little video, the style reminds me of "The History Of Japan"**, but for physics and other science stuff.

First half was pretty good ("here's what we've observed"), second half was too speculative for my taste ("why is what we observe here"). A bit longer than I expected given the rapid fire style, very much inspired by Zero Punctuation

Speculative, you say?

PKD (and some others), apparently, were more in touch with "reality" back in their time than most experts even today

And tbh it's tough to argue some of the evidence presented in the above. Heck, PKD said @ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bbW6ZOmoFgY#t=8m40s that the now-kinda-prescient "Flow My Tears, The Policeman Said" was based on MEMORY of a US Police State. #MindBlown

Time to re-watch The Thirteenth Floor again... ;)
