Lmfao where tf was this? Interesting they got Cali plates.

Corny fuckheads

It’s for real something I’ve noticed.

Wasn’t that dude at 106 eating only fatback and whiskey or something crazy?

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

Guess I’m not buying anymore sparkfun stuff.

Shame.

All good bud, just wondered.

I notice you awkwardly wedge “seriously” into the end of a lot of your comments. What’s up with that?

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

You gotta include a /s just for clarity dude. I believe you’re joking, but still.

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

Be the change 😎

This is a good time of year to go, anything past April is brutal.

Make sure to take pics of the windmill farm on the way back to LA, and get a date shake! 😎

P. S. If you wanna see some real post-apocalyptic shit, check out the Salton sea… It is a place of death. The only sound is the sun curling paint off former gas stations, cheerful 60s plastic signs of this or that resort by the water cracking in the endless sun, coated in the ever-present tan of dust.

There are only memories of joy. And they’ve long faded too.

I’d rather die. I will take as many in charge with me as I can.

You got it, silly.

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.

Thanks, silly.

Oh, really?

I’ve never heard that my people’s process of brining & dessicating seafood would allow it to be stored without refrigeration until juuuust now.

I don’t use Reddit, silly.
