@lohphat What I thought was strange (but cool) was that two portals and a point of gravitational attraction (the floor) WOULD cause perpetual motion. If such a thing were possible, a field of zero gravity would exist between them
-
@lohphat Spoiler alert! :)
But that wouldn't quite be perpetual motion as it would be motion in only one direction.
-
The most annoying aspect of the game is how it creates a paradox of differential pressure. You can hear your inner ear adjust as you ride a lift -- imagine one portal at a great height and another much lower. The differential air pressure between the lower, higher ambient pressure portal would cause a rush of air to the higher portal. You could create a perpetual motion machine by restricting the airflow and then adding a turbine in the airflow.

god damn they made Aperture Science so complex....

i love how he gets all into it explaining the story LOL
-
@blackcero11 Yeah! Sixtysymbols should really look into the halo ring.

@Melthornal You monster!
-
differential equation what?...

I want to see a first order differential equation!!! D:
