Everyone who believes in the Mandela Effect has their own theory on why it exists. I’ve seen many point to the LHC, while others dismiss the effect entirely as mass false memories. I would like to posit that the Mandela Effect is actually a natural phenomenon. I believe the true reason the ME occurs is because of the fractal nature of spacetime.
To help facilitate a better picture of what this truly means, let us examine spacetime as it is presented in string theory. Imagine that all the possible timelines for all pieces of matter were stretched out in strings across 3D space. The ‘start’ of time would be very small, and every frame in which the universe updates would propagate the strings of time further into space. Because of the quantum nature of observation and decision making, every time there are two possible outcomes to a timeline, the timeline must split into two timelines. This results in the overall spacial structure of each timeline to present itself as a fractal tree: one node which splits into two, with every node further dividing infinitely.
Except: what if space wasn’t infinitely small? Fractals are still trying to be fully understood by mathematicians around the globe. One of the most frustrating things to wrap your head around is the fact that while the area of a fractal is finite, the perimeter is supposedly infinite. This is because mathematics can subdivide infinitely, so there is never a reason to assume we’ve hit the ‘limit’ of subdivision. But space is not a theory; space is real. Energy must have a smallest quantum state it can exist in, and anything smaller than that must not be able to exist. Because of this, every fractal found in nature must necessarily end. The smallest subdivisions of the spacetime fractal are what I believe to be the Mandela Effect.
Picture the very edges of two timelines existing together within a finite space. They have both reached the absolute smallest subdivision of each of their fractal trees, and now both of them want to propagate further into space. Because there is no more room for both timelines to subdivide again, only one timeline can propagate. However, instead of one timeline or the other propagating, I believe the timelines ‘merge.’ In order to be that close to each other anyway, they must have extremely similar sets of data compiling that universe, and the merging picks the most mundane difference between the two timelines and removes that difference.
People often ask why MEs are mundane,

From the start of the song, to where they coaxed her to the mic, to the old man who continued singing and her tiny scream of embarassment at the lyrics as she leaned to another person (something like my own mother would do) - all the reactions/gestures of the people present in the scene were just so natural it was like some real recording of someone's wedding reception and not just a scene in a film. Carmela Corleone played by Morgana King is definitely one of the gems in the movie. I love her so much. :)

Hey guys,
I attempted to make a quick thread of the history/timeline of the metaverse so far, showcasing the big events and inventions which have led us to reach this point.
Would like to know what you guys think about it :)
Thank you!!!
PS: I know its rather simplistic and I missed quite a lot of events but I wanted it to be accessible for all audiences.
All the ones I found were very confusing.
I was looking through what roguelikes I wanna play and thought to make up a lil timeline of sorts. Not of ALL releases, just one of games I've heard about or played.
The 'Eras' are completely arbitrarily set by me, but I do believe there's been atleast 3 cultural shifts for the genre however you want to define it. I'll go into more detail if you're curious.
Based upon the First Available Release year. For a full list see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_roguelikes

ERAS
To explain my reasoning for these eras... AGAIN, I'm not an expert or historian and I don't have any references sourced here. It's more of just me rambling about my own roguelike experience.

What “Roguelike” Meant
by ZenoRogue
>Roguelikes have evolved separately from mainstream video games: while mainstream games focused on features that sell well, roguelikes were made by skilled programmers who wanted to create games interesting for themselves, and share them with other people with similar tastes. The term was never defined well, with every player using it according to their own feelings; for this reason, I have decided to make this quite subjective. Also, mu

The series does a terrible job of keeping dates/ages straight, but my inner history nerd wanted to take a wack at constructing a rough timeline of the events as depicted/described in the show. This list is by no means comprehensive, so let me know if I missed something, and I'll add it and credit you!

I’m 28 years old and I’ve never been taught anything outside the Bible other than hearing we came from monkeys so I feel dumb.
I am particularly interested in the high rises and skyscrapers. I love the italian/Greek revival architecture of the old neighborhoods, but I’d love to learn more of “modern” Cincy.
My daughter (16) keen on studying history across cultures. She is a very visual learner and I thought having a chart or book that compares world history timelines might be helpful. I have seen a few online but I would love some opinions of what people like.
