Что значит эль пси конгру
Пересказывать историю смысла я не вижу. Разве что расскажу основные отличия между аниме и ВН. Начнём с того что это две разных истории. Прямо так в лоб говорю, потому что связь между аниме и визуальной новеллой лишь в событиях.
В ВН Окабе грустный серьёзный человек с ПТСР, а в аниме это жалкий нытик, не способный править вселенной. Это ещё один плюс к моей теории о том, что СЕРН перестарался и поэтому тут он безучастный, ведь Окабе не представляет такой большой угрозы для будущего. В аниме все события вплетены в одну сюжетную линию, где не раскрывают новых героев полностью из-за первоисточника само собой и оно старается косить на свой первый сезон. В ВН все события последовательны для своих временных отрезков. Но ВН не ответ на все вопросы, которые появляются после просмотра аниме, нет что вы. ВН это просто более конкретные вопросы к происходящему и только путают мысли в попытках их как-то оправдать. Поэтому без дискуссии со знатоками, полностью прав я не буду.
Сейчас вы наблюдаете за тем как устроено повествование во вратах, и как выйти на каноничную концовку. Да я уже чувствую не понимания, зачем нужно было так делать. Но это тоже не всё. Здесь постоянно меняются временные линии из-за того что все повсеместно экспериментируют с МВ. То русские, то стратфор, то ещё кто-то.
Есть два типа людей, что выключают телефон и те, кто решают оставить его включённым. Это основная развилка, справа истинная концовка, слева путь по достижению Врат Штейна. Так к слову левая ветка, не оправдывает гениальность решения Окабе от слов совсем. То есть он делает ровным счётом ничего, чтобы побороть свой ПТСР. Ему звонят на телефон, а после он оказывается в 2036 году и узнает, что вселенную можно обмануть. Я не утрирую, сценарий писал ленивый. После мы отправляемся на правую ветку.
Интересный факт, если вы, как и я, сначала прошли на концовку Маюри, а потом пошли и сделали D-RINE, то вас удивило 0 отличий после получения сообщения от себя же. А в конце из-за того что он получил сообщение оказывается что он настроен серьёзно.
Ну, тут конечно лучше чем в аниме, но сценаристы адаптации нить происходящего не упустили, а в точности передали ересь.
Извините у меня уже задница начинает знатно так гореть от происходящего. Лучше это не будет превращаться в разбор ВН или мою критику. Давайте я просто постараюсь ответить на вопросы, которые у меня возникли после прочтения.
Это важно, ведь сценарист специально сделал Кагари похожей на Курису, показывая таким образом, что у них одна судьба на двоих. То есть быть использованной в качестве оболочки для информации о МВ. Так, а теперь понимая, зачем она существует, возникает определённый вопрос, почему так мало информации о таком значимом персонаже? Почему Лескинен решил именно ей промыть мозги? Почему так оказалось что она почти копия Курису? Откуда ему было знать что она отправится в прошлое с Сузухой? Всё по порядку.
Мало информации: я не побоюсь предположить, это из-за сжатых сроков разработки, и понимания что раскрыть её не успеют во вселенной со многими нюансами. И решение было принято просто умолчать, оставив недосказанность, сосредоточив внимания на других вещах. То есть добавить добавили, но прописать лор не решились.
Промывка мозга Кагари: я считаю что это замкнутый круг, то есть первопричина промыть мозги Кагари, это то что она приходила к нему в прошлом и он уже знал промыл ей мозги. Но откуда ей появится в первый раз, так, скажем, родиться с идеальной совместимостью?
Такой вопрос хороший именно из-за аниме, где все возможности объединили в дно целое. Ответ нет, она не работает на Стратфор, это Кагари на них работает, но Амане может иметь связи с СЕРНом, так как говорится, что она училась в Европе, когда Кагари сделала пластическую операцию чтобы стать Юки. Спасибо аниме адаптация то, что ты делаешь только хуже.
В ВН, что очень странно, основные события с Юки происходят именно тогда, когда это не Юки, а Кагари, то есть справа от повествования. А слева, на лабу нападала ни Кагари, а Рейес, вот и всё.
Тут вопрос к происходящему. Он ещё после фильма появился. Как она оставила сильное воспоминания, если Окарин говорил, что у него уже был первый поцелуй, и как тогда он забыл, как выглядела Курису?
Просто мы помним, что повествование начинается с мировой линии бета, значит поцелуй не мог быть тогда, когда там сидела Кагари. А там она сидит, потому что он не спас Курису, если спасёт Курису, то будет поцелуй. Вот и всё, так его и привязала к линии. Странно? Глупо? Весьма, ведь попадание под машину повлияло никак. Возможно, только потому, что в этой временной линии наблюдатель Курису? Честно, тут мне нужна ваша помощь. Догадки строить не буду, ведь это хуже нулёвки. Просто какое-то возвышение Курису над людьми в геометрической прогрессии, блин, так легко стать наблюдателем, когда потребовалось создать искусственную временную линию для отнятия у него дара. А может, всё и было сделано ради этого? Безпонятие.

Компания Engineered Arts, производитель гуманоидных роботов из Великобритании, собирается произвести настоящий фурор на предстоящей выставке CES 2022. Ключевым экспонатом экспозиции этой компании будет робот под название Ameca, который способен максимально правдоподобно на сегодняшний день копировать мимику человеческого лица.
Показать полностью. На их веб-сайте представители компании Engineered Arts даже называют свое творение «будущим лицом робототехники».
Практически все роботы компании Engineered Arts предназначены для выступлений перед людьми. Система управления роботом Mesmer, к примеру, позволяла ему произносить речи, используя предварительно подготовленные речевые заготовки. Все эти роботы не могут ходить или перемещаться другим способом, они способны только двигать руками, пальцами, шеей, головой, ртом и глазами. Но эти движения выглядят максимально человекоподобными.
Робот Ameca был разработан в качестве универсальной платформы, доступной для приобретения различными клиентами, которые могут по своему желанию добавить роботу систему искусственного интеллекта и другое программное обеспечение, способное придать роботу новые возможности. Встроенное программное обеспечение способно к реалистичной имитации человеческой мимики, эмоций и некоторых элементов поведения. Под его управлением и в зависимости от ситуации робот может улыбаться, хмуриться, вступить в открытый диалог или наоборот, придерживаться принципа «держать язык за зубами».
Все это весьма наглядно демонстрируется на представленном видеоролике. Возникает ощущение, что робот Ameca, проснувшийся после дремоты, испытывает своего рода удивление, вызванное его собственным существованием. А взглянув в камеру и как будто найдя смотрящего на него зрителя, этот робот демонстрирует чувство смущения и поражения.
Уилл Джексон (Will Jackson), основатель компании Engineered Arts, рассказал в недавнем интервью, что способности робота Ameca и его предшественников являются результатом 15-летнего труда и научных исследований. А конечной целью компании является создание роботов, способных взаимодействовать с людьми совершенно естественным и привычным для последних способом.
В настоящее время роботы Ameca доступны для приобретения клиентами через веб-сайт компании Engineered Arts. Там же предлагается несколько моделей этих роботов, которые могут быть взяты в аренду для участия в различных мероприятиях и событиях.

У вселенной есть начало, но нет конца. Безграничность. У звезд тоже есть начало, но они гибнут из-за собственной силы. Ограниченность. Мудрецы глупее всех на свете. История нам это доказала. Рыба, живущая в океане, не знает о мире на суше. Будь она разумна, она бы также погибла. Человек, превысивший скорость света — это еще больший абсурд, чем рыба, начавшая жить на суше. Назовем это последним предупреждением бога для тех кто еще сопротивляется.
Чтобы понять то, как они передавали информацию D-мейлов в прошлое, нужно знать об уравнениях Максвелла и их главном выводе. Уравнения Дж.Максвелла создают основу для предположенной им теории электромагнитных явлений, которая объяснила все известные в то время эмпирические факты, некоторые факты предсказала. Но главным, интересующим нас выводом из теории, стало положение о существовании ЭМ-волн, которые распространяются со скоростью света.
Те, кто внимательно читали предыдущую часть статьи уже понимают, к чему я веду. При посылании сообщения, ЭМ-волны от него, двигаясь со скоростью света, проходили через ядро чёрной дыры и попадали в момент прошлого, с которым та была связана, материализовавшись в нём как обычное сообщение на телефоне. Возможно ли это в реальной жизни? Гипотетически возможно, но никто не знает в действительности, существует ли по ту сторону центра чёрной дыры путь в другую Вселенную, другой момент в пространство-времени в текущей Вселенной или просто исчезновение в небытие. Но мы с вами будем оптимистами и представим, что у них получилось.
Перед тем, как мы окунёмся в пучину квантовой физики, стоит сказать для незнающих, что интерпретация Эверетта рассматривается как система относительно наблюдателя, который с ней взаимодействует. В нашем случае, наблюдателем выступает Окабе, который становится наблюдателем для системы в момент первого с ней взаимодействия, для нас этой точкой будет первый D-мейл. Как только это происходит, Окабе во всех остальных мировых линиях становится относительным тому Окабе, который является наблюдателем, а значит взаимодействие будет происходить только тогда, когда Окабе, являющийся активным наблюдателем будет перемещаться относительно независимых друг от друга мировых линий, в которых есть свой набор событий, который уникален для каждой из них, однако в каждой из них есть и те события, которые останутся неизменными.
Вариант первый: Этим действием они создают отдельное ответвление ВНУТРИ Вселенной №1, где все события остались неизменными, кроме пола Рукако, происходит это моментально, и никто этого не замечает, т.к. для них ничего не поменялось, ведь ключевые события не менялись.
Вариант второй: Этим действием они переносятся в другую вариацию Вселенной №1, с которой никак не могли взаимодействовать, пока не решили отправить D-мейл, который стал отправной точкой для смены текущего таймлайна, на иной. Здесь однозначно утверждать трудно, будет ли кто-то ощущать изменения от переноса, но тем не менее, это 2 таймлайна, представляющих вариацию одной Вселенной, но отличные по показателю дивергенции и не зависящие друг от друга.
Наиболее правильным с точки зрения каноничности Врат будет именно второй вариант, но в реальной жизни, гипотетически, оба варианта имеют место быть, однако в приведённых мною материалах говорится тоже о втором.
Таким образом, Окабе как бы «вспоминал» будущее, которое для него из прошлого ещё не наступило, тем самым совершал своеобразный прыжок во времени, но внутри одной и той же временной линии. На события или число дивергенции это никак не влияло. Однако сам Окабе мог поступить иначе, зная то, что в будущем произойдёт.
Для вас разбирался и вещал Фёдор Дмитриев, он же Пеппа, он же эксперт во всех областях от Лаборатории Гаджетов Будущего. Не теряйтесь в бесконечности Вселенных, скоро увидимся!

This article lists down the different terms and phrases used in each episode and its definition.
Contents
Episode 01: Prologue of the Beginning and the End [ ]
Term 1: El Psy Kongroo [ ]
Term 2: «Organization» [ ]
This is Okabe’s delusional agency involved with Committee of 300. It is supposedly a highly secret group who is sought after by many opposing organizations, whose secrets would be vital to radical change, which nobody but Okabe cares for. This is the initial irony to the series, as something initially imaginary becomes all too real.
Term 3: Metal Upa [ ]
Upa is a character from the fictional anime Rai-net Kakeu. The Metal Upa is one of, if not the rarest of a collectible vending Upa figure series. While the anime is considered a child’s cartoon, some collect the merchandise for their rarity.
Term 4: Alpacaman [ ]
This alpaca with a man’s face is a character of virtual pet video game: a parody of SEGA Dreamcast software Seaman.
Term 5: Hououin Kyouma [ ]
The main protagonist of Steins;Gate, Okabe is a self-proclaimed mad scientist and often refers to himself under the alias of Hououin Kyouma, which is also the name he uses to introduce himself to other people. Mayuri and Daru refer to him by the nickname Okarin. He also uses this alias when browsing @channel. The literal translation is «Phoenix-Shrine Madness-of-truth.»
Term 6: The Choice of Steins Gate [ ]
This is a phrase used by Okabe to signify the meaning of events, the phrase itself, in his own occasional confession, «doesn’t really mean anything.»
Term 7: Futuristic Gadget #1 [ ]
«Future Gadget #1 Bit Particle Cannon» is one of the gadgets that Okabe and Daru made; it is nothing more than a laser gun-shaped TV remote control.
Term 8: Landlord [ ]
Yuugo Tennouji, the manager of a small electronics store specializing in Braun tubes (hence, Okabe’s nickname to him of «Mr. Braun») and CRT-based televisions is also the property owner of the apartment. It is shown that he does not dislike Okabe, but finds his antics to be very disruptive to the property.
Term 9: Hostage [ ]
Explained later on in the series, Mayuri is said to be Okabe’s hostage. This is because she was traumatized by her grandmother’s death to the point where she would visit her grave daily during younger years. One day in 2005, Mayuri reached up towards the sky to a beam of light, and Okabe ran to hold her as he announced that he wouldn’t let her go anywhere because she is his hostage—he was afraid she would be taken into the heavens and she would not be with him. It’s a non-affectionate way of saying he will never have him leave her if he can help it, and he later develops the persona of Hououin Kyouma to assist in emotionally protecting her, later realizing that this is possibly detrimental to her sense of independence.
Term 10: Phone Microwave (Name Subject to Change) [ ]
Future Gadget #8. This is the full name of the machine used for the initial time travel-related plot in the beginning of the series. When a message is sent to the microwave from a phone, it activates it remotely. Originally designed to be a remote-controlled microwave, this became the base concept for the time machine later on.
Term 11: Gel Banana (also Gel-bana) [ ]
During experimentation with the Phone Microwave (Name Subject to Change), a banana teleports back to its stalk in a green, mushy form, marking the beginning of the time-themed plot.

Term 2: Yanagibayashi Shrine 柳林神社 [ ]
This is the shrine that Luka helps manage.
Term 3: Youtou Samidare [ ]
Replica of Katana sold at Bukiya replica weapon shop. Okabe bought it for 980 yen, but treats it as if it’s a legendary blade.
Term 4: «Yep, Still a Dude.» [ ]
In regards to Luka, talking about all his perfectly feminine qualities. but he’s a guy.
Term 5: «Oh-ha
Short for «Ohayou-gozaimasu’ (Good morning), the line is said by Amane Suzuha. The greeting won the grand prize in the buzzwords contest for 2000, a decade ago, and is significant for its horrible out-of-dateness.
Term 6: @channel [ ]
This is the fictional equivalent to the textboard 2channel. The only mentioned tripcode user is JOHN_TITOR. People that use a name but no tripcode include Hououin Kyouma and ‘KuriGohan and Kamehameha’. In the anime, JOHN_TITOR and Hououin Kyouma «age» the threads while KuriGohan «sages» them.
Term 7: JOHN_TITOR [ ]
According to the BBS, John Titor is a time traveler from the year 2036. The user posts on @channel about a futuristic dystopia in 2036.
Term 8: SERN [ ]
Short for Société Européenne pour la Recherche Nucléaire. A supposedly evil agency who works closely with particle manipulation, SERN is an anime counterpart to the real world CERN. In the series, SERN becomes the antagonist faction to Okabe and the lab. They are a major ruling force inJohn Titor’s time.
Term 9: Dystopia [ ]
In reference to John Titor’s time, a dystopia is a world that is put into a forced state of peace, but it’s just a veiled dictatorship.
Term 10: Grandfather Paradox [ ]
The theory that if you were to go back in time to kill your biological grandfather, you would be from a parallel universe created by the death of your grandfather, as you would never have existed to begin with.
Term 11: World Line [ ]
Throughout time as a linear plane, world lines are variations of reality in which details differ from one world line to the next. There is a lot of hopping of world lines, so the more times world lines are traversed, the more varied the reality is; Okabe observes how one D-Mail can change the whole nature of the city of Akihabara. The % change in variation can be tracked by the Divergence Meter, and universal events of world lines within ranges of 1% variation are tethered to outcomes governed by Attractor Fields.
Term 12: IBN 5100 [ ]
An old computer developed by IBM, the IBN 5100 is the in-universe equivalent. It is a computer made in 1975 that runs very simple coding that is disregarded in future computer models, causing a very short stock to have ever been produced. This apparently is imperative to the use of a time machine, as said byJohn Titor.
Term 13: Mayushii NyanNyan [ ]
Mayuri has a part-time position at a maid cafe as a catgirl maid, where they all say «nyan
» at the end of their sentences.

Term 2: Christina (Kurisu-tina) [ ]
Term 3: Labo-Mem (Laboratory Member) [ ]
The members of the «Future Gadget Lab»; Okabe formally inducts each one personally.
Term 4: The Zombie [ ]
One of the many names given to Kurisu by Okabe, due to seeing her dip her finger into a gel-bana and taste its contents for analysis. One could suggest that he enjoys teasing her. From Okabe’s perspective, this name is retroactively fitting as she was, in a sense, «resurrected» after being stabbed.
Term 5: Time Machine [ ]
Unlike traditional time machines, the Phone Microwave is only capable of sending a small amount of data as text back into the past; any larger object sent back would become torn apart at the molecular level (hence the gel bananas).
Term 6: Shining Finger [ ]
In reference to the Kung Fu skill from the protagonist of Gundam G series, this is the nickname given to Kiryu Moeka by Okabe because of her high-speed cell phone-typing skill.
Easter egg: The voice actor of Daru had shouted «Shining Finger!» in Gundam G.
Term 7: Sanbo [ ]
Name of a beef bowl (gyuudon) stand in Akihabara. Being known as Akihabara geeks’ favorite, it even has its own Japanese Wikipedia entry. No cell phones, no headphones, and no questions are the rules of the shop.
Term 8: LHC (Large Hadron Collider) [ ]
This is a device used by both real-world CERN and fictional SERN to collide atoms in an attempt to create extreme forces of energy for scientific research. It’s the scientific way of «knocking things together until something interesting happens,» including generation of a micro-black hole. It runs underground in a ring. In Steins;Gate, the black holes it generates are used to send people and information back through time.

Term 11: «Human is dead, mismatch» [ ]
During Daru’s investigation, a search on missing persons in SERN’s database shows articles involving particular test subjects being transported back in time and torn apart at the molecular level; each subject this happens to has his/her file branded with this phrase.
Episode 04: Interpreter Rendezvous [ ]
Term 1: Faris NyanNyan [ ]
Pink haired girl, inheritant of Akiba city. She works in the same maid cafe as Mayuri and is a friend of Daru and Okarin. Daru looks up to her as the only 3D woman with a 2D soul. She often ends her sentences with the phrase(s) «Nyan-nyan» And wears cat ears (as they appear to be). These are all because of her personality of wanting to act like a cat.
Term 2: Rai-Net Dash (Rai-net Kakeru) [ ]
Fictional anime series. The story of 13 episodes is introduced in the original game Steins;Gate. The story revolves around an elementary-school hero Kakeru who fights online battles against evil hackers, with his girlfriend Kirari-chan and his legendary Monster-Program called Upa.

Term 7: G-BACK [ ]
Okabe’s strategy of winning his match Rai-net Access Battlers against Faris. As their agreement was for Faris to tell Okabe what she knew about the IBN-5100 if Okabe joined her in a match, G-Back, or 自爆 (pronounced jibaku, trans: suicide-bombing), ensures that their game ends quickly.
Episode 05: Starmine Rendezvous [ ]

It functions as a part of the phone-microwave/time-machine in the form of a 42″ cathode ray tube (CRT) television, coincidentally placed beneath the floor of the Future Gadget Lab directly under the microwave.
Term 9: Jellyman’s Report [ ]
The anonymous writer of the SERN time-travel reports involving «mismatched» individuals. Or perhaps named because these «mismatched» individuals listed in these reports have all turned to jelly (gel).
Term 10: Laegjarn’s Chest [ ]
Also known as Pandora’s Box. Okabe used this to name the Future Gadget Lab’s operation that aims to extract information from SERN’s computers.
Term 11: Singular Point [ ]
A point in time and space selected for existing. Once you pass the point, the functions of time and space are switched. In other words, your time is stretched eternally and you can’t escape from the point.
Episode 06: Butterfly Effect’s Divergence [ ]
Term 1: Round-Table Meeting [ ]
Term 2: Nostalgia Drive (Nostalgic Journey that Crosses Over Time) [ ]
is a fancy term Okabe coined for the e-mails that they plan to send back in time. Because of his unusual naming sense, his suggestion was rejected by majority vote, and Kurisu’s suggestion — D-Mail — ends up being chosen as the term to be used for subsequent experiments.
Term 3: The Mail that Leapt Through Time [ ]
This is Daru’s suggestion for a name that would describe the e-mails they send back in time. The phrase is in fact a reference to the movie «The Girl Who Leapt Through Time», a story of a girl who is able to travel back in time. The movie is sad.
Term 4: D-Mail [ ]
Kurisu’s suggestion for the term to be used for the messages they send back in time. It is a shortcut of Mayuri’s suggestion «DeLorean Mail» and it eventually becomes the «official» term the Future Gadget Lab would use to pertain to the messages. DeLorean is a reference to the Back to the Future movie series, wherein the car used by the main characters is a DeLorean DMC-12.
Term 5: Operation Urd (Norn of the Past) [ ]
Operation Urd pertains to the experiment which attempts to revitalize the project that involves sending messages back in time. Urd comes from the Norse Goddess of the same name who governs the past; she also has two sisters named Verthandi and Skuld. Of course, Okabe was the one who created the name.
Term 6: Kerr Black Hole [ ]
Term 7: Event Horizon [ ]
Term 8: My Favorite Right Arm (Dependence on One’s Right Arm) [ ]
In other words, something that cannot be replaced and is absolutely vital. A term to refer to an irreplaceable and useful ally.
Term 9: Super Hacka [ ]
Daru, self proclaimed «Super Hacker», is called «Super Hacka» by Okabe. The western meme equivalent would be to refer to an internet hacker as ‘hax0r’, which can be further leetspeaked.
Term 10: Yuri Field [ ]
Term used by Okabe to describe Mayuri comforting Kurisu when she bumped her head. Yuri is a Japanese term usually reserved for Anime and Manga that roughly translates to «Girls Love» or a sexual/romantic lesbian relationship between two female characters.
Episode 07: Divergence Singularity [ ]
Term 1: Phone Microwave Second Edition Version 1.03 [ ]
The latest version of Okabe and Itaru’s Phone Microwave (temporary name), with name invented by the latter. Unlike the previous version, it can now send messages from any phone using the cellphone that comes with the Phone Microwave. However, it can no longer cook anything, even gel bananas.
Term 2: Celebrity Seventeen [ ]
Kurisu is given yet another nickname by Okabe in this episode: Celeb 17 (or Celebrity 17). It pertains to Kurisu’s well-to-do lifestyle (living in a hotel using her parents’ money) that is unusual for someone of her age. Kurisu points out that she is eighteen, not seventeen.
Term 3: Sweets [ ]
