Beare's Law of Accelerating Catastrophe at Sea - BLAC

At sea a problem can accelerate into a crisis at a rate proportional to the conditions

An example of Beare's Law of Accelerating Catastrophe at Sea - BLAC.

Imagine you are at sea and sailing along nicely a few miles off the coast of Corsica. You have the Genoa poled out and are running downwind. You are single handed. You pop down below to make yourself a cup of tea. Everything is fine. All of a sudden the wind shifts and you gybe. The pole slams across the forestay bent; the genoa is backed and the pole is trapped under the sail. As the boat lurches you are scolded with coffee. You rush on deck to sea the wind picking up and the boat floundering.

You are confident you will soon bring things under control. However, the wind is gusting alarmingly. A squawl from the hills. You cannot get the whisker pole off to furl the sail. You look up and in horror you see a ship coming at you dead ahead. The wind gusts and the boat is knocked down. You slip and land hard on deck bruising your arm.

And so it accumulates as you experience Beare's Law of Accelerating Catastrophe at Sea - BLAC.

This screen saver can't run because it requires functionality that is not available on your hardware-accelerated video card.

when the screen saver cant run because it requires functionality that is not available on your graphics/video card.
this is usually because your graphics/video card is fucking terrible

Windows: This screen saver can't run because it requires functionality that is not available on your hardware-accelerated video card.
Jimothy: oh no i cant run this screen saver when im away because my video card is from a SNES

Accelerator Extraphysics

Accelerator extraphysics is a branch of applied extraphysics, concerned with designing, building and operating extraphysical particle accelerators. As such, it can be described as the study of motion, manipulation and observation the charged extraphysical particle beam and their interaction with accelerator structures by extraphysical electromagnetic fields. And the possibilty of find any extraphysical signals and evidences on classical particle accelerators such as seeing if it is possible to detect extraphysics in classical physics ways.

"Accelerator extraphysics in an interesting branch of extraphysics, it might be really good to find out if extraphysics can affect the physical level or not, such as find extraphysical evidences in objective ways."

"Accelerator extraphysics will be one of the first steps on the study of extraphysical mechanics and extraphysics as a whole, mainly as the experimentation of extraphysics in an objective way."

Accelerated Learning Experience

An experience reserved for people with 130+ IQ, or ADHD patients.
To use this method, one must assign one of his computer speaker to play mozart on 2x speed and the other speaker to play either a religious text or some other text that they want to learn.

Search up "Accelerated Learning Experience" and you will be enlightened.

Jack: Your roommate has a final right? Is he studying right now?
James: No, he practiced Accelerated Learning Experience 3 hours earlier and finished studying within 5 minutes

Energy-Knowledge Acceleration

Energy-knowledge acceleration: (noun) The process of using more efficient energy sources to accelerate the rate of knowledge acquisition. It emphasizes the relationship between energy and the ability to gain knowledge, and how using more efficient energy sources can lead to a faster rate of knowledge acquisition, research and innovation.

The shift from fossil fuels to solar energy allowed for energy-knowledge acceleration and a significant increase in the rate of scientific discoveries.

Time accelerates

When Made in Heaven is in action and you are about to die.

Or rather it's just complicated stuff in math.

"Time accelerates", Enrico Pucci, 2011.

particle accelerator game

You and your friend stand at opposite ends of a long hall, you then start accelerating towards them unti you collide with them. The game is named after particle accelerators which accelerate particle packets to near light speed before sending them into each other.

Hey Joe want to play the particle accelerator game?
Mark got a broken nose from playing the particle accelerator game with Joe yesterday.
