minus-squarepsud@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up1·edit-21 day agoSome physicists think they do. I have heard two different ideas though both summarise to "time is a side effect of the universe operating

minus-squarepsud@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up1·24 hours agoI’m pretty sure that current theory has only one time dimension and some number of space ones
minus-squareOpenStars@piefed.sociallinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·23 hours agoOh yes, I’m going beyond that to “possibilities that are fascinating to consider, despite having no evidence whatsoever to support them”:-).
minus-squarefinitebanjo@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·6 days agoYeah, Atomic Clocks can measure time with great precision as the radioactive decay of elements is extremely consistent.

If so, I can’t imagine why
