Sigh. Bigger ecosystem for the rest of us I guess.

Guess I’m not buying anymore sparkfun stuff.

Shame.

More like grouchy Marx, amrite?? Eh? Eh?

I’d talk to you if you were on the map 👍

Be the change 😎

In sum, these guys at EAST got the Greenwald limit elevated in their tokamak, which indirectly influences the Lawson criterion: nTTau, density * time at said density * plasma energy released. Lawson is the master finish line for measuring whether a fusion system can actually make more power than it consumes.

To date, when you cross the Greenwald limit, the man/woman in the operators seat should expect the plasma inside the device to become uncontrollable, hurting the reactor by touching the walls or instruments inside, a so-called “disruption”. Only a few topologies like the stellerator can exceed the limit, and so far, only by 5x.

But here we have a way to exceed the limit in the much more researched tokamak. This research has positive impact for all but the weirdest/niche fusion devices.

There are topologies which don’t require steam heating for electricity generation…

Unlike this captain positivity’s social life, fusion is making some sizable strides forward in short order.

I design diagnostics going into systems like these, there’s a lot of positive news coming our way.

Helion’s gonna have some problems though.

What a low quality joke. The humor was bad too.

I’d try this with baked tofu, looks like you used firm?

🙄

Almost like all of this exploitation & money hoarding crap is rooted in some kind of mental disorder…

I have been trying, but there are multiple small shops I like using it that I can’t avoid.

Hell yeah, awesome 😂

Damn, that’s where it happened?? I fucking bike right past that!!

I encourage you to stop buying almonds anyway lol

Nah.

Try reading a book 😎

Life is a best effort. Make sure the people whose back your scratching are returning the favor.

Don’t get caught holding the bag, in fact don’t even hold the bag.

Finally, if you like weird fashion, just go for it. Shiny black clothes can look great on you if that’s what you actually like.

No -ism is immune to hubris. I still believe in people sharing in the profit of their labor, and appreciate this post clarifying one of the many ways dissent can be crushed, albeit temporarily.

If one’s idea is genuinely good, it better be able to handle dissent. Once gulags get involved, you’ve long ago lost the people’s belief, and are on a timer.

Evil never perseveres. Never has, never will.
