“This is the kind of news that makes me want to jump up and do a happy dance.”

This is how “men” talk now.

Are they talking about some sort of molecular qubits here? This comes off like a breathless fanboy piece. Makes me reluctant to read it carefully.

My dilithium crystals ate the time crystals. But the Trillium-D caused a space warp in the energy transporter and the temporal anomaly transported me back to 1950.

All one has to do is watch Star Trek to understand time crystals

What is so hard about that?

“ 1. Time crystals are a wickedly difficult concept to understand and even harder to explain.”

So just call it Wakandium and store it with the cold fusion perpetual motion machine

Will Google’s new control crystals be called “Crystal Blue Persuasion”?

Before I waste time possibly reading a bunch of bunk. I need some sort of synopsis.

I will put on “Exile On Main Street” later tonight and re-read the article in the hope that it will make more sense to me.

Wakandium

I believe that is the black crystal that accuses all the white crystals of racism--and then slaughters them.

If it is Google, it is going to be evil. That damned company is pure, unadulterated evil.

They are the locus of the surveillance state and the state sponsored suppression/manipulation of information.

There are 4 billion people who use computers each day around the world, and nearly all of them get their information from searching Google.

And Google has determined it is going to disseminate the “right” information to people looking for it.

We are so screwed.

NSA has had that time crystal tech for decades - Google just reinvented the wheel. Or so it might seem from some cryptic comments here and there across the web, hidden in odd corners where no one is looking. Or looking, discounting what is stated as fact because it seems too improbable or too much like magic. See James Clerk Maxwell’s 200 Quaternions for a fuller explanation.
