  1. Breaking news, Elon Mush-for-brains is backing out of the commitment he made to give Trump all this money. I think he realized how unpopular he is and, now that Biden withdrew his campaign, Trump is the oldest presidential nominee in history.

  2. The slowest part of travel isn't the travelling, it's the queuing up at an airport, bus station, train station, etc. Checking in\buying ticket, finding the right gate, getting people on, getting people off, locating your bags. What good is a 12 minute trip if it's an hour on both ends getting ready and getting to your final destination?

  3. Man, every time I see some "miracle" device that will do wonders, I think, "snake oil keeps changing shape to keep people buying."

  4. It's easy to compare Elon Mush-for-brains to Albert Einstein. You see, one is at one end of the bell curve, and the other is at the opposite end of the bell curve. Elon Musk is at the stupid end and Albert Einstein is at the genius end.

  5. Welcome to late stage capitalism.
    19
  6. Not just the rest of the industry, specifically the part of the industry without union support.

  7. If there are aliens smart enough to come to Earth, they're smart enough to avoid a dangerous, savage, child race hell-bent on self-destruction as well as the destruction of its environment.

  8. Clearly another Christian that hasn't read the Bible. It's easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than it is for a wealthy man to enter the kingdom of heaven. Hope Hell has a good health care system.
    9
  9.  @Whatareyouareyou  Either way, he's backing out of the commitment he made.
    8
  10. Elon Musk: "Why am I hearing boss music?"
    7
  11. If you look at Trump, he looks creeped out. It's one of the exceptionally few things I agree with him about. Difference between me and him, I wouldn't be able to fake being on their side to win their favor.
    7
  12. The wealthiest people in the world never get their wealth for doing things, they get it for owning things. Elon Mush-for-brains has not done a single thing that is valuable his entire life.
    7
  13.  @SMPKarma  Greed destroys everything. You know what else violates the laws of physics that corporate capitalists believe in vehemently? Unending growth with finite resources.
    6
  14.  @Taijoedotcom  Well, I know how little you know now.
    6
  15. Elon Musk wasn't satisfied being fabulously wealthy with "fuck you" money, no he wanted attention. He came up with bullshit idea after bullshit idea, taking investor's and tax payer's money left and right, and we just let him. Maybe if we funded proper education in this country, especially science, left politics and greed out of the system, we wouldn't keep burning perfectly good money for the vanity of a buffoon.

  16. Strange how it didn't protect Rhodey and crippled his spine. Guess Tony wears plot armor under his Iron Man suit.
    5
  17. I can hear the Christian apologists now claiming you just proved God exists, because this is all WAY too complex to have just RANDOMLY happened. Might be time for another "Reasons people laugh at Creationists" video!
    4
  18.  @YouCensored  What, didn't like the whole, "fly around the Earth backwards to reverse time," mechanic? Seeing people suddenly slammed into the ground or flung off into space with the sudden reversal of spin?

  19. I listen to Keith Olbermann's podcast and whenever he refers to News Nation, he calls it, "the Nick at Night of cable news." Yeah, he's pretty spot on here with them trying to seriously cover this UFO stuff.

  20. Congratulations to Thunderfoot for getting boss music. Stomp some sense into MAGA for me!
    4
  21. Someone pointed out that the reason he keeps jumping around like that is that he's trying to make himself into an X.
    4
  22. The other day, Keith Olbermann on his Countdown podcast called Elon Musk, "Elizabeth Holmes with a higher voice."

  23. Thunderfoot dropped the bomb! The knowledge bomb!

  24. If delusion were an energy source, tapping Elon Musk would power everyone on the planet for the next billion years.
    3
  25. I weep for the education system in this country.

  26. If Elon Mush-for-brains were half as smart as he thinks he is, he'd be a thousand times smarter than he really is.
    3
  27. Elon Musk is a genius, unfortunately his genius is suckering idiots out of money.
    3
  28. America is going to suffer. Good. We tend to learn our lessons the hard way and we're about to be given one very hard lesson.
    3
  29. I hope we see a ton more. I came originally for the Anita Sarkeesian bashing, bailed on the gamergate movement when it turned toxic, but stayed around for the science and ESPECIALLY the Busted videos. A new series? Sign me up!
    3
  30. Elon Musk's plans are working exactly as planned. Oh, not getting to the moon or to Mars, no he'll likely never make those goals. No, his plan is to extract as much money from government contracts as possible and run away with the money.
    3
  31. Helium filled balloons float in air the same way and for the same reason an air filled ball floats in a swimming pool. If this flat-Earth CLOWN (I swear, find a new insult dipwad), doesn't understand that, and believes that gravity isn't real, he should find a nice tall building and walk off it.
    3
  32. Minor nitpick in an otherwise good movie.
    2
  33. If Elon Mush-for-brains were half as smart as he thinks he is, he'd be a thousand times more intelligent than he actually is. I'd wager sub 100 IQ.
    2
  34. Ugh! That clip of Elon Mush-for-brain and Tucker Carlson laughing is cringe squared. He Musk laughs like a smug asshole and Tucker Carlson laughs like a fop pretending to be Batman villain Joker.
    2
  35. Damn! Watching that steel wool burning through the glass container was intense!
    2
  36. Even if Kamala Harris wins (my preference), the fact that our election is STILL this fucking close is a damning indictment of the United State and proof of just how screwed we are.
    2
  37. If Elon Musk once had a brain, he long since took it out and lost it somewhere.
    2
  38. I've been saying this for a long time now. Greed destroys everything.
    2
  39. If Elon Mush-for-brains were half as smart as he thinks he is, he'd be a thousand times smarter than he actually is.

  40. The chances of life existing on Earth aren't millions or even billions to one, it's one to one. Those are the odds for things that HAVE happened. This crackpot needs to stop praying about math and actually learning it. And, yes, PLEASE put more of these videos out. I love the debunking of junk science and the scientific experiment videos, but I subscribed originally for the "Why Do People Laugh at Creationists" videos.
    2
  41. This is exactly the sort of thing that made the phrase Caveat Emptor so necessary.
    2
  42. Assuming these gyro busses are even possible (yes, I know they aren't), I have one really important question. How many people will die when the gyro fails? Between the bus toppling over onto other cars, the gyro likely flying around into empty land at best and buildings full of people at worst, and all the sudden crashes caused by the failure, we're talking dozens at best and hundreds at worst.
    2
  43. Remember folks, Elon Musk didn't make his fortune inventing, he made his fortune selling stock from PayPal after being ousted as CEO over disagreements. The man is a control freak who happened to get filthy rich when a business he was part of sold to someone else.
    1
  44. Man, first I see Vsauce asking how many holes a human body has, mind blowing stuff (no, seriously, go watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=egEraZP9yXQ ), then I come to find that all the DNA in our bodies stretched end to end is 4 light-days long and our cells have more surface area than the Statue of Liberty! Strange stuff.
    1
  45. The man has chronic foot-in-mouth disease. It's got to be up to his knee at this point.

  46. Even if we assume that putting water in a vacuum would make it evaporate faster, this drier wouldn't be more energy efficient, because you'd first have to spend the energy to create the vacuum. It'd be, at best, shifting the energy consumption saved at the drying end and move it to the creation of a vacuum.
    1
  47. Honest to God, how hard is this? You want a solar roadway? GREAT! Put the panels BESIDE the road, not ON the road.
    1
  48. When science became leashed to the P.T. Barnum quoting crowd looking for fast money, science became corrupt. Greed destroys everything, even science.

  49. Hey, kiddies, it's arts and crafts time with Thunderf00t!

  50. I saw Thought Slime criticizing the article, but more attacking the ridiculous fanboy perspective of the article.
    1
  51. You made commentary on Elizabeth Holmes's conviction on 4 charges of fraud (out of 11). Going to make a whole video about it?
    1
  52. Ooh, I know, they should invent technology that mimics the freeze hurricanes in The Day After Tomorrow to pull down super chilled air from the troposphere to freeze Antarctic water back into glaciers! LOL, no I'm not serious.
    1
  53. Elon Mush-for-brains is going to do for America what he did for Twitter. Screw it over, bankrupt it, and try to rename it to X.
    1
  54. Those pictures of Elon Mush-for-brains going full derp is just priceless!
    1
  55. If this is true, then it would be insane to buy anything else... To bad it ISN'T true. I need Scotty here to say, "You cannae change the laws of physics!"
    1
  56. I live in Oklahoma, and it's the middle of November now. It's fucking 72F out there! We had some minor freezes, but it's pretty damned hot now. BTW, I apologize for our former attorney general turned bullshit EPA director. He's an idiot bought and paid for by the petroleum industry that funds just about everything here.
    1
  57. I think every time Elon Musk opens his mouth and shits out another billion dollar idea, I'll be investing in his competition.
    1
  58. 12:03 Hell, I thought I was the only one that still remembers Lexx!

  59. This looks like amazing science fiction. Thing is, science fiction is fiction and often proposes things real scientists know is impossible.
    1
  60. Man, I swear, this guy is dangerously close to embracing humoral theory.
    1
  61. I'm wondering why it didn't combust on its own.
    1
  62. Most of us aren't scientifically literate, at least not at the level of a professional scientist. Hopefully, those of us watching this channel are at least more scientifically literate than the average person. It also doesn't help our news media does no due diligence and puts out sensationalist nonsense for clicks and views.
    1
  63. I can't believe in current year there are STILL people THIS completely stupid.
    1
  64. As someone who makes his own compost for his garden, I don't WANT the water taken out! That water allows the bacteria to live and break down all the organic matter into healthy compost.
    1
  65. Elon Musk is a victim of success. He had one functional idea that made money. It's even a good idea to have electric vehicles to displace petroleum based vehicles. But, just because you have ONE good idea doesn't mean EVERY idea you have is good. Failure after failure means that, more likely, that one good idea is a fluke.
    1
  66. When did reality become so strangely optional for so many people? More and more I feel like I'm the only sane person in the world, which is a bad sign that I, myself, am going insane. Please, tell me I'm not losing my mind.
    1
  67. P.T. Barnum is now selling rockets, eh?
    1
  68. If we could tap the bullshit that comes out of his mouth constantly, we could turn the deserts of the world into tropical paradises.
    1
  69. Science, a tool used for money making schemes by the greedy, and a tool used to stop the scammers by people like Thunderf00t! Keep up the excellent work.
    1
  70. I've got a guaranteed method of producing unlimited energy! It's called a Bio Reactor. You take organic matter that's decaying, say manure for example, producing methane which you collect and burn as fuel. And you've been busting enough weapons grade bullshit to power our society forever!
    1
  71. Elon Mush-for-brains is cut from the very same cloth as Trump. They were both born with silver spoons in their mouths proclaiming themselves as self-made men. They both claim to be far, FAR smarter than they really are, both being very stupid and completely ignorant. They claim other people's work as their own. They're both shameless self-promoting grifters. They both make promises they either have no intention of keeping or no ability to deliver. They're completely thin-skinned man-children with zero capability of accepting any sort of criticism, constructive or otherwise.

  72. Any time Elon Musk announces something grandiose, sell any and all stock you have from companies he's in charge of. Guaranteed profit.

  73. Elon Musk wasn't satisfied being fabulously wealthy with "fuck you" money, no he wanted attention. He came up with bullshit idea after bullshit idea, taking investor's and tax payer's money left and right, and we just let him. Maybe if we funded proper education in this country, especially science, left politics and greed out of the system, we wouldn't keep burning perfectly good money for the vanity of a buffoon.

  74.  @Amokra  Heh, CinemaSins, love that channel.

  75. I knew compressing gases made them hotter and decompressing them made them cooler, but to SEE it so clearly on infrared is kind of cool.
    1
  76. The wealthy live in a carefully constructed fantasy in which they are invincible, and the rules cannot apply to them. If it weren't for the rules that help bolster their plunder, they'd each and every one of them have gone bankrupt a long time ago.
    1
  77. They history repeats itself, but what happens is idiots don't learn from history and do the same stupid things.
    1
  78. If Elon Musk was half as smart as he thinks he is, he'd be twenty times smarter than he actually is.
    1
  79. So, you said metallic water would require great pressures, and yet, you've made it with virtually none. Amazing stuff.

  80. If Elon Mush-for-brains was half as smart as he thinks he is he'd be a thousand times smarter than he actually is.

  81. I remember one unusual treatment using UV light, and unless I'm misremembering this, they were using it to treat damage due to acid reflux. They inserted a pill-shaped light, having it flash in short pulses in order to toughen the esophagus. We're talking tiny levels in a very localized area, and not to treat a disease but to repair damage.
    1
  82.  @CGrantL  I did state I could have been misremembering. What I remember was scarring the tissue to make it tougher and protect against acid. And Google isn't a God, it doesn't know everything. Algorithms can only do so much. Eventually, a few fragments of a half remembered news story from years or even decades ago is going to have no avail on a Google search. The conclusion was that it wasn't to treat a virus but to correct a physical defect. Seriously, even after typing a dozen search permutations, best I got was UV therapy for psoriasis, and that was STILL followed by questions about light and coronavirus.

  83. Men like Trump were spoon fed from the cradle that they were important, and the reason they were important was because of their money. Men like Bill Gates didn't start wealthy, they earned it (legitimately or otherwise). Some people just don't care about anyone but themselves, and by extension their offspring. If he could have all the money in the world, it wouldn't be enough. He'd need all the money the world ever had. Then THAT wouldn't be enough, he'd need all the money in the universe. He's a black hole of greed and self-importance, and no amount of wealth made, borrowed, or stolen will ever fill it.

  84. The robot delivering a box footage reminds me of The Horror Geek. Continuity is hard!
    1
  85. Some idiots are always trying to ice-skate uphill.
    1
  86.  @alldeeplearning949  LOL, funny.
    1
  87.  @RM_VFX  That Star Trek time travel makes no sense either. Why would going around a sharp corner, as it were, at very fast speeds make you go back in time? Even throwing the high gravity of the sun into the equation wouldn't equal time travel.
    1
  88. Notice how all the claims of UFOs by pilots are entirely by cameras and never the naked eye. It's always them trying to reverse explain something they see on camera. Honestly, if you showed me one clear focused UFO taken from a stationary position and not some blurry light show shaking like crazy because the idiot can't operate a camera worth a flip, I MIGHT be able to be convinced this phenomena is real.

  89. Nothing like a good stomping on Elon Musk party!

  90. We can use reflected light to power solar roadways to power hyperloops and solve erectile dysfunction!

  91. Elon Musk, the P.T. Barnum of the 21st century.

  92. Hey, Phil Robertson. It's easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than it is for a wealthy man to enter the kingdom of heaven. Maybe you might start looking into getting some health care.
    1
  93. How bad is it that North Korea is better at launching orbital vehicles than SpaceX is?
    1
  94.  M  Boy, would I like that to be true. Unfortunately, history shows one CAN defraud the U.S. government for that much and very much get away with it.
    1
  95.  @JackSparrow-re4ql  It'll go on as long as their are suckers looking to get rich. So, basically, forever.
    1
  96. If Elon Musk hadn't made one of the best on the market electric cars, no one would be listening to him. The man is PEAK Dunning-Kruger.

  97. It's super important to, you know, WATCH the video before criticizing it!

  98. Thunderfoot is the science David slaying science scam artist Goliaths left and right. Keep those stones flying, we're all behind you!

  99. This nation is going to die in the next few years if we don't stand up and fight for it.
    1
  100. My only complaint on this video is your pronunciation of Espresso as Express-oh. There's no X in Espresso. The science is solid though!
    1
  101. Hmm, seems like they just reinvented the coffee press. The whole reinvent isn't great, but the product might be decent. Cut the bullshit ad and just sell it as a modern coffee press.
    1
  102. Going to be a lot of feet following!
    1
  103. It's always a good thing to watch Thunderfoot kick the shit out of Elon Mush-for-brains.
    1
  104. Aw, disappointed. I was expecting to see a certain Futurama clip, but it wasn't present. Oh well, still a great science video.
    1
  105. But, Elon Musk IS a genius! He's a genius at suckering people out of their money.
    1
  106. I'm sure, excluding WWIII breaking out and a nuclear war destroying us (not long odds, I'm afraid), we'll make it to Mars. We'll need to perfect faster forms of space travel, sustainable forms of oxygen production, stronger radiation protection... The list goes on. Possible? Yes. In MY lifetime? I highly doubt it.
    1
  107. Funny enough, the people who this kind of product would fool don't need mind control devices.... They're already brainwashed.

  108. Supes doesn't need to breathe in space, but he can't exhale or he loses all the air, compressed as it is by super strength, trapped in his lungs.

  109. A fool and his money are soon parted.

  110. I was wondering why you had a sai on the table in the past vids!
    1
  111. Man, you dropped a supermassive black hole's mass of knowledge here.
    1
  112. I'm sure if we could gingerly lower a comet's worth of ice into the oceans, it'd cool things down, for a bit anyway. I'd be more worried about displacement.
    1
  113. I think this is the first time I've heard the, "it's because I'm black" defense coming from someone who is actually from Africa. I don't care what his skin color is, I care that he's a con artist. FYI, I also don't like white, brown, or Asian con artists either.
    1
  114. So, essentially, it's being crushed by a wall of water moving faster than you can even see followed by the sub breaking apart and scattering your scoured remains everywhere.
    1
  115. Thunderfoot isn't spreading common sense, he's spreading actual sense. Common sense is what gets us nonsense faux science like this Pela case.

  116. Hey, belief works, just ask Tinkerbell!

  117. I swear, if P.T. Barnum were alive today, he'd be selling Waterseers.

  118. Wouldn't it be a better idea to put a ton of solar panels along the train's route than to put them on the train?

  119. Great take-down.

  120. This is the SECOND video in my subscription feed talking about this. Other one is Kyle Hill.
    1
  121. This is stemming from a major and fundamental misunderstanding of how microwave ovens work. I still, STILL, hear people tell me they, "cook from the inside out." My typical busting is to ask them if they'd ever microwaved a frozen burrito. Usually they have. I ask if it was hot on the outside and still frozen in the middle, I usually get an affirmative response. If something cooks from the inside out, wouldn't the middle be lava hot and the OUTSIDE be frozen, not the other way around?
    1
  122. Assuming all you've said here is 100% accurate, then I'd say the US is totally fucked. We have incompetent and ideologically driven leaders and all they care about is short term growth and blaming others for their own mistakes.
    1
  123. There is a utility to this so-called breakthrough. It has the potential to inspire people to want to become scientists and engineers, two things this society is in desperate need of.
    1
  124. I'm all for settling Mars... Once we can make a functioning biodome with the maintenance being idiot-proof (CO2 scrubbers, oxygen producers, etc.) Nearly 100% waste capture\reuse, nearly 100% water capture\filtration\reuse would be absolutely necessary. Modular technology that can take resources from Mars and build replacement parts and new technologies. 2024 is a VERY long stretch. 2124, maybe.
    1
  125. I can attest to how hot it takes to melt aluminum. My brother melts scrap aluminum, and if you're not wearing protective gear to handle the equipment you use to lift the crucible for pouring, you're going to have a bad day. Three foot rods with hooks at then ends, and the heat from the crucible goes up it fairly quickly. Just standing near it is uncomfortably hot.
    1
  126. I've got a better solution. Take water from places that have an abundance, desalinate water from coastal regions, take rain runoff and purify it, then use the same kind of pipes we use to push petroleum all over the U.S. and pump it to places that need it. Hell, push the surplus back into the natural aquifers like the Ogalala. You'd get so much more clean drinking water and cost a lot less than a failed dehumidifier on steroids.
    1
  127. Damn! You can practically HEAR that potato growing.

  128. When someone can lose the most money ever and STILL be one of the richest people in the world, the system is totally broken and needing of destruction.
    1
  129. Google hates you because you don't have the right politics, as in, lockstep with the most extreme left. Hell, I'm on the left, but I'm practically Mussolini in the eyes of Google. When you're so far to the left, the only thing further to the left is a wall, you're entirely too far left.
    1
  130. While that apology at the sounded scripted as hell and a bit monotone, it did have all the merits of a genuine apology. Admitting wrong doing, explaining what wrong doing had occurred, taking personal responsibility for said wrong doing, and asking forgiveness. More people need to know that's what an apology sounds like and learn to do so themselves. I'm so sick of the "I'm sorry if..." non-apologies that it's genuinely refreshing to hear an actual one.
    1
  131. This is late 19th century\early 20th century levels of fake electricity-based quackery. How are we STILL this stupid?

  132. I'm waiting for the Portal 2 style potato battery capable of running A.I. programs myself.

  133. Was that last part, about "when the British bombed, the Axis took cover... When the Americans bombed, nobody took cover," suggesting Americans didn't hit much?
    1
  134. Totally disagree about it explaining everything. It explains nothing but is so intriguing that you can't help but wonder what it's about. Do agree it's one of the best movie posters ever though.
    1
  135. I think we need a good strong virus. Yeah, I might die, so might people I care about, but our species needs some culling. We're overextending ourselves and a virus would be much more fair than any system a human being would come up with to regulate our population.
    1
  136. Tucker Carlson seems smart... if you're brain-dead stupid.
    1
  137. Thanks to propagandizing fools, misinformation campaigns, and pure fear-mongering, this kind of movie gets made. Yes, it was a terrible disaster, and should have been avoided. But it wasn't going to make Europe uninhabitable any more than the Fukushima disaster was going to make Japan uninhabitable.
    1
  138. I'm glad to see science platforms not looking to shovel bullshit and blow sunshine. Reality is what will always win in the end, and that's what a scientist should be banking on, not pixie dust and unicorn farts.

  139. If I had a nickel for every time some corporation tried to use DMCA to shut down criticism of their product or company, I could buy YouTube outright.

  140. None of the world's governments are built for rapid responses. We are adaptable as a species, which tends to mean slow and steady, not bursts of speed.

  141. Don't you love slacktivism?
    1
  142. If Elon Mush-for-brains were half as smart as he thinks he is, he'd be a thousand times smarter than he really is. I know children with special needs that are smarter than Musk.

  143. Gun shaped? It has a handle and a trigger, that's just about as gun-shaped as it gets. Fishing rods have a handle and trigger, old-fashioned joy-sticks do too, so does a disher (ice-cream scoop). If I saw someone going into a bank yelling, "give me all the money, I have a gun," and they brandish a fishing rod, a game controller, or an ice-cream scoop, the only reason I'm wetting my pants is because I'm laughing too hard.
    1
  144. Hmm. I thought that Mercury was tidally locked with one side perpetually facing the sun and the other perpetually frozen.
    1
  145.  @Sunlight91  Ah, thanks for the clarification.
    1
  146. There is always the predestination paradox. Being told event X happens, your attempts to avoid it end up precipitating it. But that's just fun stuff for sci-fi, not biblical prophesy. Hell, I've been predicting Trump not leaving office without bloodshed, I didn't proclaim myself a prophet because of the Jan. 6 insurrectionist riot at the capitol, because I didn't predict anything that specifically.

  147. Not nearly scientifically literate to know, but could a rail gun work for launching an item into orbit?
    1
  148. Ah, Elon Mush-for-brains. The bullshit he's slinging is causing ozone depletion!
    1
  149. Lest we forget, Time Magazine once named Adolph Hitler their Man of the Year in 1938. Their person of the year doesn't have to be a good person doing good things. In that rite, I'd say this is yet another example of a terrible person doing terrible things. Not Hitler bad, but still bad.

  155. If it wasn't frightening, people wouldn't have watched it. It'd be something on the Discovery Channel or PBS, and very few people would have watched it. I'd have been one, but that's me. Personally, I'd love to see more here about this disaster.

  160. I need to run this video by my brother. He likes to melt scrap aluminum, and he takes quite a few precautions while doing so. I'd like to see what he thinks of pouring molten aluminum straight into a pool.

  161. Most people understand that movie physics aren't real physics. Cars don't explode typically during a collision or being shot at. Having a twenty plus story robot punch its palm is going to destroy both robot hands pretty easily. People go to these movies to turn their brains off and just enjoy something spectacular. That being said, I would love watching bad movie physics busted.

  162. I'm wondering exactly what undiagnosed neurosis or psychosis that Alex Jones has, not to mention his true-believer fans. The man is in desperate need of a lobotomy. And the true shame of it all is this, even if he gets a proper diagnosis, seeks out treatment, comes to the realization that he was spouting horrible nonsense, and retracts it all, his fans will assume that he was gotten to by the Illuminati Bilderberg Globalists and had harvested baby organs filled with soy implanted to make him docile.

  163. Sixty Minutes, the TV program, is one of the most essential reasons scientific literacy is so very, VERY important. I knew they were full of shit the instant they came on screen. They're a TV magazine, and magazines are the junk food of information distribution.

  164. Let it burn. We're too stupid to keep running things. Eventually, we'll die off and the planet will recover. Chances are, intelligent life will not evolve again on this planet, and it will eventually be consumed by the sun.

  165.  @tedferkin  Even though I'm a fan of the superhero genre, and Superman is the original and first superhero, I kind of hate the character. Unless you have a green rock or have powerful magic, you can't defeat him. He's WAY too powerful.

  168. Before watching this video, my understanding is that we could do some interesting things with a room-temperature super conductor, mostly making energy production less wasteful as we could better store the energy not being immediately used into some sort of loop and possibly make batteries better, but I'm hearing that from people who aren't physicists. Now to watch the video and see what I've misunderstood.

  175. Whenever I see a percentage increase or an X times inflation figure, I look to see what the baseline number they're using. Saying that an event that's once every hundred thousand times goes up to three occurrences every hundred thousand times is statistically insignificant. Saying it tripled is frightening.

  177. My mom's generation got decent education, science was highly prized and desired as scientific advance was going to be the engine of the U.S. economy. Now, intelligence is attacked, science is denied, and the engine of the economy has stagnated to near stalling. This so-called idea is a remnant of the snake oil salesmen of old trying to sell bullshit to fools and it's a FERTILE field today.

  178. Are we getting more stupid as a species? This kind of bullshit scam keeps coming with extreme regularity. We've been burned over and over again, and yet don't figure out to stay away from fire. Glad to see someone with enough sense to point this crap out.

  184. The Department of Defense has a LONG memory and little tolerance for shenanigans. Yeah, he might get a short-term profit here, but now he has a hole in his foot (self-inflicted) and no one in government willing to help. This is going to cost him. Greed destroys everything.

  185. Honestly, when I saw the thumbnail, I was thinking about how Supes defeats Nuclear Man by dropping him into a nuclear reactor, and suddenly all the lights in the city go on and to max brightness. I mean, that's not how nuclear works, that's not how electricity works (if anything, it'd blow out circuits with an overload and make the city dark), and how would that really defeat\destroy Nuclear Man?

  186. I make my own compost. What I can say is, grinding up the materials makes sense. Cooking it to get rid of the water does not. I WANT that water in the compost, it helps drag the nutrients into the soil. It also helps keep the bacteria healthy to break down the organic matter. I want this process to be nice and slow, so that all those nutrients are absorbed by the soil, and thus my plants. Wouldn't a large systemic solution be to collect the organic matter in one place, allow it to biodegrade, and collect both the compost and the methane? Then you can use the compost as fertilizer and the methane as fuel.

  187.  @Cheepchipsable  Didn't read that all the way through, did you? "Wouldn't a large systemic solution be to collect the organic matter in one place, allow it to biodegrade, and collect both the compost and the methane?" Large systemic solution, collect the waste in one place (we do that anyway, but mixed in with a ton of recyclables and toxic materials), neither of which suggests having a methane collector in one's home. Hell, some of the waste collection companies are doing that NOW, covering the garbage in an airtight seal and collecting the methane to burn as fuel. It's not ideal, their rotting garbage is mostly organic waste, but mixed in with recyclables and toxic materials, plus they aren't using the organic materials as compost.

  188. I embrace new technology, not experimental technology. If you have a product that works and it fits a need I have, I'll buy it. If you have an idea on a paper, I won't give you my money to, at best, give me new technology that I'll have to buy, spending even more money, or at worst, have nothing to show for my investment.
