Einstein disproved - Car faster than light

Einsteins said that nothing can accelerate to the speed of light, because its mass would become infinite, but the theory of relativity has been disproven by this game, where you can accelerate a car to 2147483647 mph (3 times the speed of light) using a glitch. Neutrinos were also seen a couple of months ago travelling faster than light in LHC.

Some have argued that the theory of relativity doesn't apply to games because the objects don't have physical mass, only digital mass, and can thus move beyond the speed of light, but Einstein didn't say anything about that in his theory.

Your right, Einstein didn't say digital cars couldn't move faster than the speed of light, because THEY DON'T MOVE.

@Hakuzo that's patently absurd. if you say that a car in a game doesn't move, even though it obviously looks like it moves, we might as well say that nothing moves. planets don't move, my fingers don't move when i type this etc. if it looks like it moves, it moves. movement can't be falsified.

there are people who say that nothing really moves, like zeno (zeno's paradox), and other idealists. people can make all kinds of wild claims about reality or games, but it doesn't mean they're true.

@watergaia As you obviously don;t understand the difference between a buggy computer simulation and reality, I see no point continuing this conversation.

[watergaia]

@Hakuzo you seem to have a relatively low intelligence quotient since you didn't understand the point i was making, nor could you come up with any counterarguments.

thats cute, your car glitched to 2147483647mph, the speed of light is 299792458mps.... not mph. sooooo your a little off.

[watergaia]

@ShitiDoatSchool incorrect. the speed of light is only about 300000 km/s. 2147483647 mph is much faster than 300000 km/s.

I have to admit. I did laugh.

wonderful how a digital GAME can disprove all sorts of science.

Heureka!
