      good one, but you would hear and transmit using the frequency. What i understood by being ilegal to do so, is that normal citenzens cannot transmit using that specific frequency, as to not interfere with the "connection" to the outside whatsoever. I suppose the governments would take it upon themselves to every now and then send a signal to see the results, and they would keep listening for outside singlas aswell.

The answer is that it is BOTH. E=mc2 IS F=ma. This is why the photon AND electron are BOTH structureless. "Mass"/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity. Gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy. The stars AND PLANETS are POINTS in the night sky. THE EARTH is blue, AND the sky is ALSO BLUE. (Notice what is THE EYE.) E=MC2 IS F=ma.

      @@frankdimeglio8216 This was a load of nonsense. E = m0 × c² + (mv²)/2 (though I don't remember it exactly). It describes how there's energy with rest mass, and how there can be additional forms for it, with this equation relating more to kinetics. F = ma is just stating the relationship between forces for acceleration of a mass, not the kinetic energy. Please don't use the word "energy" so loosely, as it is not something interchangeable with everything. Too many people do that mistake, and it is stupid. Energy has a clear definition in science, and using it along with words like electromagnetism, radiation and some others in weird ways is not good.

    The bike problem was the topic of my study project in University... and it is explainable. It´s because of the small distance between the hinge of the wheel and the axis of the handlebar. If the bike falls to one side, the front wheel turns to this side so the bike rolls into a circular motion with a centripetal force pointing away from the center so the bike gets a push to the other side.

      I recall reading a quote that refusing the Nobel prize + its $1 million (or the Fields Medal and the $1 million of Millennium Prize in the case of Perelman) is just a more noisy and controversial way to accept the Nobel prize / Fields Medal and the million bucks.
      People who reject such awards and that kind of money gain a certain kind of fame which is different and very particular. They are the "rebels" who did not bow down to the "system".
      The same applies to British people who have been offered knighthood and rejected it. These are the ones who "refused to bow down to the Queen".

    The problem with some cryptography mysteries, especially the dead pigeon one, and maybe even the Taman Shud case, is that spies often use One Time Pads, which cannot be cracked. They are old but are still used to this day.
    Some spy using pigeon and one time pad seems like pretty reasonable explanation.

    1:26 It's amazing how almost every single thing that just happened was incorrect. FM literally tells you what's happening - "frequency modulation". The changes in amplitude and frequency in the original signal are convolved into a constant-amplitude varying frequency signal. The base frequency is really not relevant. You can do FM at lower frequencies, it's just not as efficient.
