You imagine stupid things, at your convenience, when in a trance.

Like Maxwell's demon, which violated 2nd law of thermodynamics. Stupid and impossible.

Or the wet dreams of the king of all cretins in modern physics, with his train, mirrors, light beams and ghost telephatic observers.

Is a chicken without it's head still a chicken?

Why do you ask here? Do you think our physicists, 
or our Bach like guru Jan,  have learnt a lot about
chickens? By studying their manifolds, full of 
singularities?

I'm in a trance. I'm having a thought experiment..

it's a chicken without  it's head..
if i cut the wings off it's still a chicken
..just without it's wings.

How many times do I have to cut the chicken where it
is no longer can be considered a chicken?

dictator to his face. https://153news.net/watch_video.php?v=H91DAKRWMO5B

A neural network is programmed by examples.
A thought experiment is when a wise guru 
is programmming his worshippers of what they
should observe and claim.
