special relativity - Discreteness of Spacetime and Violation of Lorentz symmetry

My other question is: if Lorentz symmetry is violated, does that imply space-time is discrete? or not necessarily?)

Understanding Stagnation point in pitot fluid

What is stagnation point in fluid mechanics. At the open end of the pitot tube the velocity of the fluid becomes zero.But that should result...
