    Oh, man. They are working on direct electricity generation from 2H + 3He.

    First, that’s not new. But then, everything coming out of the mouth of that guy is bullshit. No idea why he doesn’t want to explain it, but it’s not “hot plasma creates magnetic field and we harvest it”.

    Anyway, assuming it’s not a scam, good luck to them. Google offers me another video saying that one is a scam, though. And given that 2H + 3He fusion is about an order of magnitude harder than what everybody else is doing, I’m prone to believe the title.

    I really cant decide if that’s a joke.

    But you have to move from “Fusion reactors have wiggling magnetic fields.” into “Fusion reactors create wiggling magnetic fields.”

    I’m out of the loop here, but I can almost guarantee that whoever people are talking about, they didn’t achieve that change.


















  • As the GP points, it’s not so simple. The landholders are not the super-rich, the super-rich are all politicians, without exception. The next tier of Brazilian riches are industrialists, and nearly all of those got everything they have by exploiting political connections.

    And guess what, the successful politicians of today are all people that developed their political career during the last dictatorship or close allies of them. And if you look at party financing, media allocation, and how the electoral courts behave, the reason becomes obvious quite quickly.
