gabs*
imagine actually trusting the mainstream media
@Serifus i started watching that until i realized it was 6 hours long lol
“By putting the magnet development up front, we think that this gives you a really solid answer in three years,” said Dennis Whyte, director of MIT’s Plasma Science and Fusion Center, in March, “and gives you a great amount of confidence moving forward that you’re giving yourself the best possible chance of answering the key question, which is: Can you make net energy from a magnetically confined plasma?”
@JDM_WAAAT xorgy is calling me a faggot
@xorgy I love how we talk for hours and then you guys mute me because I disagree with you about fusion
@atheist4thecause I didn't mute you, lol
I like fusion too
@xorgy I noticed you can't respond to my point that billionaires such as Peter Theil and Bill Gates say Fusion is the future. You disagree with them. THey put money where their mouth is
I'm just saying, if you want power like... next year, you can definitely make a working molten salt reactor (with either low enriched uranium or thorium) and make actual energy.
you don't put money where your mouth is. you are a kid on the internet that pretends to be an authority, nothing more
if you try to get energy from fusion next year
your chance of getting power is basically zero
I wasn't talking about power for next year
well, you were wondering why people are making a big stink about thorium
I was talking about power that is a paradigm shift for society
the reason is that it makes molten salt reactors attractive from a cost perspective, in the near term
everyone loves fusion
but fission is pretty useful already
so we should use it
if you want a minor short-term gain in power, put billions into thorium. if you want paradigm shifting power, put billions into nuclear fusion
so we can actually power the supercomputers for ITER
I did not say we shouldn't use fission. why strawman me?
we are literally putting trillions of dollars into ITER
shit takes time
so you muted me and called me a troll based on your ignorant misunderstanding of my point
I didn't mute you
nor did I call you a troll
yes you did
no
yup
I did not
yup
you did
I seeee
@xorgy told you
i am currently muted by you
