is time mearly a device to stop everything happening at once?

it has failed to stop everything from happening at once to me and I'm suing for that discrimination

Nothing! You can only slow up the end of time as we know it.

You're question is worded strangely.\n\nModern physics suggest that time does not, as we commonly percieve it to, progress steadily forward from one moment to another. The reason is that there is no plausable mechanism to show how one "moment" is suddenly lit up and set aside as being "now". Furthermore, special relativity shows us that two different observers who are moving relative to one another would disagree about what events constitute a "now". \n\nSo the idea of stopping something that isn't moving in the first place is rather presumptuous.\n\nHowever, throwing caution to the wind, there is every reson to believe that time stops for a weightless particle moving at the speed of light, and that time stops within the event horizon of a black hole. For whatever those observations are worth... there they are.\n\nHope that helps.\n\nEdit - S_k_Latif, please either more thoroughly research and understand the topics you reply to, or do not reply to them at all. There is no good reason to spread faulty or innacurate information. What you just said makes exactly zero sense. Just being honset.

Not unless a timer has already been set or some other parameter to make it go off.

Of course! The only time that exists is the PRESENT. Today is the present. It is a gift, that's why they call it that. Treat every day as if it were your last!

No, to do this just press Delete as soon as turn on the computer (Thats what I do)

Well, its pretty much as crimsonmoonvc said.\n\nUnlike the spatial dimensions of perception, time is not directly accessable by any sensory organ. We precieve time by the unfolding of the events around us.

No. The more icons beside your computer's clock are the ones that slow it down, because it means that all that software is loaded any time.

go to control panel / energy options and check if there is a time defined for "Standby Modus". If yes, set it to none or never.

Is this a question?  \n\nIf you are saying this is a problem, then you may want to take your computer to a tech.  Many times there is a battery on the motherboard that keeps the system time.    If it's going bad, i've seen it slow down time keeping and other things.   \n\nThe other thing I'd check is to check the services on the computer and see if the "Windows Time" service is disabled.  If it is not, your computer may be trying to sync it's time with another computer on the network.

Not sure what you are asking...but it sounds like you want to know if there are applications that will send a signal to actuate a switch?\n\nThe short answer is yes...these sorts of things happen hundreds of millions of times a day (if not more).

You would need a time portal machine

A/C current\nClocks and everything use A/C current to keep track of time. This is always exact and time gets taken away or goes ahead gradually. There are time servers out there that your clock can set itself to everyday so you don't loose alot of time.

Travelling back in time is not allowed by einstein's theory of relativity...however if you can instantly teleport youself to some faraway star,say a 101 light years away, you might be able to catch einstein receiving his nobel prize!! as stated earlier, there is no master grandfather clock that is regularly ticking away the seconds..rather that rate is adjustable...but one may zip into the future..consider an example where you are on a space-ship at a speed of 0.99990 c that is going away from the earth and coming back..in your time frame say,it takes about twenty years..using lorentz transformations, the time for your to and fro motion is close to 450 years!!

Dude, I don't know anything about that button but i do know that every 108 minutes the buttons must be used to put the numbers in the computer or else the world ends. Also..just press the button and see what happens. Knowledge is power. Can I get a witness?

Control+break ... It works good.. depends of the programs it can stop fast... it´s like End task in windows
