Rooster Teeth Podcast - Guessing Game

[@guyfromthemidwest8583]

I like how 90% of these highlights were Gavin not knowing how to say something

[@hydry6317]

5:34 what Gavin is getting at here is actually one of the fundamental thought experiments when talking about special relativity. He is imagining a reference frame that is stationary relative to the universe itself. Sadly no such reference frame exists as wherever you are in the universe, everything else appears to be moving away from you at a rate proportional to its distance from you, due to the expansion of space. The universe has no stationary reference frame, so we always measure things relative to something that appears stationary relative to us, such as the Earth

[@user-iq4my2hq8m]

Never stop making these. These are amazing

[@TheOnlyGimmeturben]

Gavin has really interesting complex scientific question but when he expresses them he does it in the most idiotic ways😂

[@jasonlast7091]

I wish he just did a little high school physics.

[@ur_cowboy]

7:40 this conversation comes up a lot in D&D when we talk about the immovable rod

[@richardommundsen2417]

"So we have an immovable rod. But for half the price, you can buy a TRUE immovable rod?" "Why is the TRUE Immovable Rod cheaper?" "because using it is a warcrime."

[@ThreadBomb]

I lost it during the "drone in space" debate.

[@FireheartIndustries]

Barb with brown hair looks so odd to me. Like seeing Gus without glasses. Something just ain't right

[@K-11609]

Not to mention Gus with a mustache

[@dm3402]

I thought that was just me, I was like "Who tf youuuuuu?"

[@xTheFak3OG]

There is no one center of the universe. The universe expands like a balloon, but we are on the skin of the balloon. All points are the center if the expansion.

[@aaronyayger]

Dakota Cloud Your high school astronomy class tell you that?

[@mjh277]

Dakota Cloud That's not necessarily true. All that analogy is meant to demonstrate is that we can't find that centre, not that there isn't one

[@Name-di3ku]

Michael Hart actually that analogy is used to visualize the universe expanding in 4 dimensions. We can only observe 3 dimensions Imagine you can only see 2 dimensions and you are standing on the skin of a balloon, to you the balloon would look like a flat circle, when it starts expanding someone tells you to find the center, you could walk all around the balloon and never find it, and it would always seem to be a flat circle expanding outwards and everywhere is equally close to the middle, which is inside the balloon

[@jameshamilton6963]

Hey vsauce, Zeus the masseuse here...

[@DistractedGlobeGuy]

I never understood that metaphor --what finally made it make sense to me was Brian Greene's explanation: Since the Big Bang was *the entire universe,* that means that it happened *everywhere at once.* It wasn't just matter and energy expanding into already-existent space; it was *space itself* expanding into *Mu.*

[@theunholysmirk]

gavin is right about the "drone in space thing" I mean the situation is impossible, bc things like the rotating galaxy are in a closed system, but yes the drone would appear to zoom off.

[@samboni7333]

I have been thinking of the first clip the other day, couldn't remember what podcast it was from, thank!

[@chancehull1124]

Rooster teeth podcast 300

[@samboni7333]

Yea I got it :)

[@alvarojcamposg]

7:11 now I get Gavin's question, the drone would shoot to the wall and splatter if it was to be put alone in momentum and not making side the earth's rotation. Imagine the eath stopped rotating... we would all fly across the rooms and splatter to the closest object from the force.

[@Christian-vq3lr]

Discussion around 7:45, that question was answered by Einstein in his theory of relativity. That was the entire basis of the problem with Newtonian physics.

[@slovak4life1991]

I fuckin love how they repeat the question that Gavin asks.

[@goldenfade6332]

8:26 Burnie ahead of the curve dropping a "Deadass" before it was cool.

[@lucasng4712]

wrong timestamp

[@Sonicfalcon16]

You haven lived in a lowlife hood then

[@jaydensmith174]

6 TRILLION YEARS!!!! the universe is only a little less than 14 billion years old

[@wathenit]

Gus's hwat, hwo, hwen, hwere and hwy are like someone punching me in the ear. I'm wondering why and hwy all at the same time.

[@hydry6317]

Also Burnie is thinking about the "Centre of the universe" in the wrong way. The big bang didnt happen at one point in space and then everything moved away from that. The big bang happened literally everywhere all at once because all of space itself was contained with that one point. every point in the universe could be considered to be the centre of the universe, because no matter where you are, everything will be appearing to move away from you (unless it is influenced by gravity or other forces of course). The universe has no fixed point

[@ThreadBomb]

You are overthinking it. Everything is moving on a trajectory line away from a central point. That point is the center of the universe.

[@johni0018]

@@ThreadBomb No. Everything isn't moving away from a central point. Space itself is expanding everywhere.

[@Platinum_Squid]

GPS is elevation or rather, using the gps system it can figure out longitude, latitude, and altitude.

[@E2O10]

For future reference, be wary of abbreviations/acronyms because G.P.S is Global Positioning System, by adding the word "system" at the end yourself, you make it redundant. It's the same with ATM (machine - wrongly) because A.T.M is Automatic Teller Machine (not Machine machine).

[@Tethra043]

Wtf happened to Gav at 11:36 XD

[@RockZombieIAm]

Barb looks WAY better with brown hair oh my god

[@CrimsonQueen_plays]

I howe how they are literally discovering relativity around the 8 minuet mark of the video

[@matiasguardaredes]

I love these

[@mephostopheles3752]

Jesus, it's so infuriating hearing them talk about science because yeah, Gavin doesn't know what the fuck he's talking about, but Gus and Burnie don't either.

[@michaelpenrose]

That shit with the Earth is just further proof that you’re better comedians than astrophysicists

[@wolfram4234]

I’m shocked

[@newtscamander2461]

If you had a drone set to hover forever a few feet above the ground (ignoring elevation differences) would the earth turn without it?

[@arynrasku6053]

What episode was the sybian

[@drowninafire]

Captcha’s in places they shouldn’t be: RT website comments

[@cameronm2877]

I've been a fan of roosterteth since Left 4 Dead days and I remember the 3rd season on Red Vs Blue but I just recently started watching again and forgot Matt existed lol

[@Mrchris2774]

Stillness IS RELATIVE

[@suprqt]

I think Gavin meant something staying in one spot of EVERYTHING in existence.

[@jaydensmith174]

he meant staying in one spot on the entire fabric of space

[@emiliovgc507]

Also there is no such thing as being still, because we are in a constant state of movement across the universe/multiverse

[@johanpaz989]

What podcast is the first one?

[@Foxambereyes]

My guess for what pilates was turned out to be way off. I thought it was an exercise which doesn't improve one's physique in any meaningful way and serves only as an activity which excuses you from engaging in an activity which would help you prepare for a conceivable practical physical feat.

[@ThreadBomb]

You mean like body building?

[@JuniorFanCirca1989]

Everywhere is the center.

[@ThreadBomb]

*I* am the center

[@theunholysmirk]

myfucking mates do this to me all the fuckin time

[@sadboiiuloff5508]

does anyone know the podcast at 14:10 ? Lol

[@charliebartman2884]

344, the podcasts used are at the end of the video, in order of when they appeared.

[@Jimbo386000]

Gavin is usually correct/smart about stuff, he just says it in the worst way possible.

[@CezrDaPleazr]

I miss Burnie

[@DistractedGlobeGuy]

"You just can see that there's no penis there, and that's attractive, as a straight man." That has to be the best thing Gavin has ever said.

[@ThreadBomb]

I don't see any penises at the moment. I am so turned on right now!

[@mephostopheles3752]

The center of the universe conversation pisses me off, not because of anything they said, but because the terminology we use is misleading. The singularity wasn't a literal single point floating around in an empty universe. The universe WAS the singularity. And if the universe is infinite, then so too was the singularity--it was just infinitely denser. So there _is_ no center of the universe.

[@tjzx3432]

Well currently spacetime is static, and what we perceive to be time is the interference of point sources of light.

[@PumatSol]

I’m blown away that all of them thought the universe has a center. Is that a common belief?

[@Monster6x6x6]

I am so happy I don't know anyone so incompetent as Gavin

[@biggamerelite3364]

I was really distracted by Barbaras clevage in the first clip
