Now that the dust has settled

maybe not B, but definitely not A

>would this be the same if it was totally different
If you've seen a doorframe that can move one side while keeping the other totally fix, let me know

That portals are not real and that this is a paradox which naturally results from thinking about something which is impossible. It's like if you try doing some equation by dividing by zero and getting surprised that you end up with some bullshit.

This

Why would that change anything?

This is the only correct answer.

I'd swear someone actually made a map in Portal 2 and solved this. Pretty sure it was A. Surely someone has the webm?

C.

It's not A or B. Static objects just don't pass through moving portals.

Where does the cube get inertia? If I ran a door at you really fast without you moving and it exited somewhere else you'd just be standing in the doorframe with zero movement

It's a matter of perspective.
People who choose A see the cube as the stationary object that entered the portal.
People who choose B see the cube maintaining the momentum in which the cube exited.
Which one is correct? Doesn't matter.
All that matters is that the posters who talk about hoops fuck off forever.

B fags btfo forever

Where can I get some magic hoops?

fpbp
Quit shitting up the board with pointless threads. No actual discussion can be made on this unanswerable bullshit. You just made this to have everybe rage at each other

The way I see it, it's either
B) a cube (along with an entire alternate universe) is speeding towards the portal exit, only stopping when it collides with the portal. The cube will shoot through due to inertia, and the alternate universe will likely soon collapse behind it. OR,

A) An open window to the same or alternate universe is thrown at the stationary cube. portal lands, cube falls due to gravity.

Pick A if you want a more likely outcome, or B if you think destroying universes with portals is cool.

There isn’t. End of story and thread. Go dilate.

is this loss?

OP BTFO
Everyone who isnt a double nigger knows there isn’t an answer with todays understanding of shit. We lost a smash thread for this, and i‘d rather have the smash thread.

Neither because portals can't be placed in moving objects.

>a smash thread dies
this is a win you dumb mobile poster

Good, SMASHED and SLAMMED threads off our streets

The issue with moving portals is that it requires the bending of space or a direct modification of traditional xyz coordinate space to "move" them. Disregarding the issue of light photons also being affected by the bending of space while the portal moved, the main issue with the B argument is the assumption that an apparent change in position implies a non-zero velocity. This assumption is not valid when you open up the possibility of bending space which can create apparent changes in position without a non-zero velocity.

B doesnt make sense, unless the object stretches somehow

Get a piece of paper and bend it like this. The paper is spacetime. Now get a pencil and hold in on the left side of the paper, and get a toilet roll - or something similar - and hold it on the right side. Now bend and straighten the paper back and forth. This is how portals work. The pencil doesn't move relative to the space its in, and neither does the roll, but they're moving relative towards each other because spacetime is bending making the the 2 closer. Now, when the pencil goes through the roll does it go flying away?

>Now, when the pencil goes through the roll does it go flying away?
Why would the pencil go through the roll?

If you try to stand in the middle of a portal you'll notice that you're always fully affected by the gravity on one side of the portal and not at all affected by the other, which means you can consider either side of the portal as separate systems. Once the cube goes halfway through the portal it will start being affected by the rules of the second system.
From the point of view of the second system, the cube has velocity and inertia, although it is not affected by the rules of the second system until it passes through the portal. Once it does pass through the portal, it will shoot out like B.

None because portals are retarded and don't even work within their own rules.
For example we know they can transfer force in game that's why you keep momentum, and yet gravity pulling from multiple sides is never accounted for, that cube should be more or less floating because of gravity nullifying itself.
Another issue is that portals do not seem to have a mass being fucking holes and without a mass they can never push any kind of force by themselves since F = m * a and m = 0, and yet they glue to surfaces and can be dragged around by the Earth's plane of reference as if they had one.
So portals must have a mass, but if they do then why you can put one on a roof and never see it falling ? It should be subject to gravity if had one.
So if we assume portals can transfer force and have a mass and magical proprieties that allow them to glue to surfaces ignoring gravity then the answer can be either, but the force applied wouldn't be the one from the mass of the press times its acceleration, but the mass of the portal times the acceleration of the press, A or B depends on how much mass we give to the portal itself.

you sound like a retard pretending to be smart.

Both can happen
