Does National Socialism have any truth or relevance to it?

Holy shit, Ted Stevens figured out the internet!

From what I understand, cars can be made to run on this stuff called "electricity". Apparently nobody wants these cars because they are neither loud nor fast.
These Nuclear power plants are supposed to have tons of this "electricity" stuff just sloshing around.
What I think is, we should get one of those "electric" cars, and maybe head over to the nuclear power plant and scoop up some of that "electricity" into some sort of container. Later on we can figure out a series of tubes to funnel some of the "electricity" to our garage so we can fill our car from there...maybe, there are an awful lot of kinks to this idea...

You speak of madness and magic!!! He's a witch! Burn him!

That guy is an occultist!

Not bad, not bad. The way I understand it, though, there's a limited amount of this uranium stuff. And it runs out, yes? A temporary solution. But it would last a couple hundred years, so whatever.

Hey dipshit!

We already know how to make an H-Bomb. Maybe if the government would pull thier head of the oil companies shiveled corporate collective cocks we could be more actively research fusion. You know, hydrogen, the most plentiful substance in the universe.

Who is dipshit?

Fusion would be cool. I read a book or part of a book on it a while ago, though. It looks really tricky - the heat required kinda tends to melt shit.

 

[Rabid Headbanger]

Thats why you shouldn't go big. It should be lots of little reactions.

 

[waif]

Even a single fusion reaction would melt shit. That shit is incomprehensibly hot.

 

[Rabid Headbanger]

Small quantities of antimatter are produced in atom collisions in supercolliders but are immediatly eliminated upon contact with matter creating 100s of times the power a to a scale fusion reaction.

That shit doesn't melt the collidor, does it?

 

[waif]

You're really into fusion, aren't you?

 

[Rabid Headbanger]

I happen to think limitless nature friendly energy is an awesome thing.

 

[waif]

I tend to concur. But not much getting done about it. See, if it's limitless, nobody gets to own it all. So not many dudes has a vested interest in such a thing.

 

[Rabid Headbanger]

Thats because the earth is run by short-sighted morons.

They are building a 10 billion dollar costing test reactor in France. I wouldn't call that doing nothing. Sure, countries could invest more, but on the other hand the whole concept is still highly theoretical and not guaranteed to ever become a commercially viable alternative to current power solutions. I don't think it's that surprising that individual countries are hesitant to plunge billions upon billions of dollars into it. The one in France is shared initiative (largely paid for by the EU but the US and Russia and some other countries are chipping in as well) which I think is the best way to go about it really. Or the most realistic one atleast.

 

[Rabid Headbanger]

In the short term. Do you really believe this is the way the world will be forever?

We don't even qualify as a type one civilization.

 

[CAIRATH]

What the fuck are you talking about.

Yeah because that doesn't sound like a silly D&D rulebook.
