This is so cool. I remember seeing that Europe is working on a massive mega project to build an even bigger reactor for more experiements. Its costing like 75 trillion

How ks the drill baby drill crowd going to compete against mini stars in a can?
Lmao. Fucking oil losers
Well, if I lived in the world of American liberals and conservatives I was taught about growing up, the game would be over the moment fusion power became cheap, and everybody would be happy.
In the real world though? We’ll wait way too long, then get excited when it finally starts to happen, and then right before The Big Day some smooth brained asshole will blow up part of the reactor or fly a plane into the facility or something.
Idk dude, we already have the sun and wind but they hate that stuff too, despite it being very close to free. Hell they'll probably bitch about fusion causing a surplus of power outside peak loads.
If it doesn't perpetuate the broken ways we currently do things it doesn't give their buddies money, so it's woke or something else bullshit.

Nu-Cu-Lar Bad? That's...about as far as they'll make it. To be fair, that might be as far as they need to. It's all the oil companies will approve of them learning, at least.
Of course, it sounds like the big problem of how to remove more power from it than you spend keeping it reacting remains an issue, presuming they can continue to extend reaction lifetimes to be functionally unlimited.
I suppose we'll need to worry about that, once we get a net positive output from a fusion reactor.
Plastic Straws. Plastic cups. Wrapping indvidual food items in plastic and then putting them in a larger plastic bag which you carry home in an even larger plastic bag.
The food has been impregnated with microplastics as well. This machine runs on sugar, but someone put oil in the tank. :-/
The ironic thing is the human body runs on fat and a huge portion of our illness stems from the insane amount of sugar we consume.

Summary: In 1984 our group published the first modern study of the effects of adapting to a low carbohydrate high fat diets on athletic performance. I have spent the next 31 years expanding on this research. In my presentation I will present the results of that research program and conclude with our exciting new evidence for the role of low carbohydrate diets and ketosis in the prevention of whole body inflammation in athletes training daily at very high loads. I will also present evidence to show that elite ultra-endurance athletes have an unexpectedly high capacity to oxidize fat during exercise and so potentially to run at fast paces for prolonged periods without the need to ingest exogenous fuels.

Thanks for sharing. As a frequent cyclist who loves cheese and doesn't drink soda or eat many sweats, I feel like this will be an interesting read.
Amazing news!
merde
They should get out more.
1,337 seconds? That... that number used to mean something, but now i can't recall what...
1 I>0|\|+ |<|\|0\/\/
I still use 1337 sometimes, for joke names like 1337h4xX0r, or I use 1337 where others would use 42 or 69, but it's always that nobody gets it. How could past internet culture vanish like that?

France's 22-minute plasma reaction is a bold stride toward sustainable fusion energy but remains experimental.

I hope it smoked a cigarette once it finished.
Well, I'm still skeptical, but I have far more trust in France's reporting than Chinese claims.
They're part of the same global research effort.
Nice jingoism tho
China had a long history of fraudulent science that they need to dig out of to gain a good reputation.
Nothing like the very highly reliable pharmaceutical "science" done in the US, amirite?
Its not like we ever had "science" come from the US that said an extremely powerful opioid wasn't addictive, amirite?
Do you know what "collaboration" means?
It's almost like they've got peers all over the world looking at their data!
Because a shit ton of fraudulent science hasn't come out of the US or Europe. Nope. No sir.
huh, I learned a few new words today

Who's talking about America?
America doesn't have a government. It's a continent. Are you possibly referring to the USA?
In North America they teach that North America and South America are 2 separate continents.
When someone refers to "America" in the contexts of countries they 9 times out of 10 mean the US. Since people from there usually call themselves "Americans" rather than "United statians"
