It's painful to watch...

Indeed, nothing is ever free...😉

How do you know if she's telling the truth? I'm not saying she's wrong, I'm saying you're not thinking for yourself; who you believe in, depends on what you want to believe, which depends on your satisfaction of life. In a brave new world, a perfect authoritarian thinks for everyone and everyone is happy about it.

When is the operative word here, there is no realistic prospect of a 'when'; it's akin to a perpetual motion machine, if a respected physicist said "there's no law in physics to say it can't work.". If the private sector want to chase the rainbow, then all power to their elbow, I just think my taxation is better spent...

Indeed, as was my implication... Yet fission has less respect, while providing a much more viable product...

Thank you for addressing the question I asked, +1 I understand that that piece of the pie is tiny, but as I said this is an ethical question; for instance, is money better spent on advertising the benefits of fission over fusion? It's like the NHS, in Britain, everyone has a claim to free treatment; but if the drugs cost too much...

Why not? That's like asking, why isn't my foot just as likely to think for itself. Because that's what it takes to make things work. Yes. Maybe, the anthill is conscious, it's like it built itself. Mostly bc they have brain's, don't be confused by the apparent intelligence from those that don't... 🙄

I have, the gravity we have is 1, the gavity we need is a lot more than that, the ethical question I pose is, is there a need to reproduce this on earth? When we can use it for free, now... And, perhaps, it's twin in a much more efficient way.

I believe a lot of things, almost always bc the argument is persuasive... 🙄

That's got nothing to do with the question I'm asking; we're never going to forget that fusion is possible, it just takes a lot more gravity than we have avaliable. I'm suggesting that our resources are better spent, before we run out...

This is an ethical question, the numbers don't matter if it's not part of the solution.

That's doesn't answer the question, I'm not suggesting we shut down humanities R and D department, just the one that doesn't seem to work, after all this time and mental efforts. Our time and efforts are better spent on projects that do work, you know the clock is ticking, right?

The problem is, all the evidence you present does nothing to change mainstream/conventional thinking which thinks you're wrong; this is my last hint mate. 😉 Just for clarity, I mean you need a better argument. 🖖

It takes vast amounts of energy to even get a second or so of actual fusion and how costly that energy is, in terms of cost to the planet. The money is better spent on something achievable in terms of clean energy, perhaps fission. I'm not suggesting we entirely give up on the potential benefits, we mothball the project until the energy cost is not on the planet.

There's always a "catcher in the rye" that people don't want to understand.

Do you have a better idea?

Well, wadda ya know, proof that a paradox can't exist, congratulations on your logical side of reason, where x = bollox...

Have you??? You can't force people to have sex, that's illegal; so the best solution, is to relax and hope for the best, if you want to avoid a sentence; that you won't want to hear. 😇

As far as I'm aware, there has never been a war, between nation's, that was started specifically to depose a dictator, it's always a civil matter; I dare you to say "Iraq"... There's a reason culture's are victims of stereotyping, nurture v nature explained. We're all humans that react in basically the same way, and culture provides the mould that shapes our thinking...

Imagine if this was meant literally, with soz being text speak for sorry and the emoji being an expression of innocents; you could be accused of overthinking, imagine that...

Well, as long as this little parlour game of ours, lasts long enough for the edit. 🖖

As am I sometimes, didn't see the emoji, soz. 😇

If that was sarcasm, then yes I missed it; perhaps next time you include an emoji... And you can avoid my poetic nature. 😉

It's a question of balance, while enough of the populous can feel relatively comfortable, then the minority can look out for themselves; while the majority pat themselves on the back for putting a quid in the collection box. I think @TheVat is correct, even in the face of blanket propaganda, enough people are savvy enough to keep hold of the fundamental truth of humanity; so that when the balance shifts revolution often results.
