They’re 1920s-style Death Rays
TBH, I could do with this. Sometimes I’m so darned left-brained it’s all I can do to walk in a straight line.
In some quarters, “black box technology” can elicit cheap laughs. Along the lines of that famous “and then a miracle happens” equation in that cartoon.
youtube video
found a youtube video where the claim is the scalar waves and bio-photons you are exposed to can’t be measured because they are fifth dementional.
OK, guess I’m done trying to understand it. it’s just BS.
I’m guessing you are kidding but I do think our entire society is very, very biased towards left brain thinking, to our detriment.
but that’s another thread.
“Even 1920’s style ‘Death Rays’?”
“Especially 1920’s style ‘Death Rays’”
This is so ridiculous I would have thought it was some kind of parody.
Precisely. While I sympathize with the desire to understand how things are supposed to work, this particular outfit is literally a scam operation.
You are not meant to understand. You are meant to see a bunch of words that do not make sense to you and conclude from the technical sounding phrases that the people running the store are really smart and must know what they are doing. I.e. “something with that many $5 words can’t be fake, there must be something behind it”.
They make their money from people who think that way.
Everybody else? Too much trouble for too little gain.
Shakes fists at Mangetout
Certainly you won’t if you insist on using the word “woo”.
“I used to believe in XYZ but then someone called me a woo and that changed my mind” said no one ever.
Well, in a previous job of mine, a “risk management and governance scalar” was a thing; it was an extra add-on on a bank’s regulatory capital requirements. But we didn’t exactly advertise this scalar.
Or tell them it drains their lucre.
Based on this part, quoted above:
…and on having examined some patents with similarly weird claims, I’m guessing that what physically happens is that they shine some light on you. It probably sweeps through a series of different colors and/or patterns. The box would just be the light generators controlled by some basic circuitry or a computer. They’ll claim the patterns of light are “tuned to do some bullshit”, but of course, it’ll just be some semi-random display. They might be able to program it to a particular pattern, and will claim that it’s been tailored to your unique DNA and chakras, or something.
A bit like the turbo-encabulator:
Seriously? For something this grand, at $15k, they couldn’t include free shipping? That’s the real red flag here.
You can’t describe what is supposedly happening because the wordmash make no sense, and you can’t measure what is happening because what is supposedly happening can’t be measured by your machines, and the scammer can’t give you any details because it is a secret. How would you tell someone that the only thing actually happening is the transfer of funds from the victim to the scammer?
Once again, you misuse the term “woo”. The victim isn’t “woo”-The fakery itself is “woo”. Nobody is calling the victims “woo”.
I think it would be excellent if that’s what they actually said to suckers customers.
When we looked at water, after it had been charged in the EESystem room, it fundamental nature had changed. It’s permeability index increased and the surface tension decreased.
I have heard that scammers do little things to head off really smart people. This text was attributed to a computer scientist/physicist: note the grammatical errors. But, the “permeability index of water”? They couch the bullshit in just the right language that rubes will be impressed but people with a brain will walk away, leaving them to work the rubes with minimal interference.
I feel like that’s how scammers would work in the Idiocracy universe. “So, like, this light-thingy is tuned to do some bullshit, 'cause a scrote like you isn’t Brainiac enough to know it’s just lights, but you can use it while watching “Ow! My Balls!”, and it’ll work just as well at making you give me money. I like money.”
