Donjuanme , in Which side are you placing your bets on?

My money says it’s not, the video didn’t look like anything other than a poor magnet.

Everyone wants to hope they’re living in the time of the next revolution, and I hope we are as much as anyone else, but it’s not going to be “toss these 4 elements into an oven and cook”. Super conductivity is going to be an extremely precisely engineered substance.

If cheaply manufactured low production cost room temperature super conductors are ever available our world will look like that within a decade. Unfortunately we are probably going to cook our planet before we get within 15 years of the above discovery

Everyone wants to hope they’re living in the time of the next revolution,

Eh, we already live in the age of silicon chips, good enough for me.

Weirdfish ,

Technology has advanced more in my lifetime than in the prior thousand years, we are very much in the middle of the greatest revolution in tech ever.

The fact people are often so jaded about it amazes me.

Aasikki ,

Yeaah and there are so many tech products that have only become a reality in the last 20 or so years. Robot vacuums, consumer 3D printers, LED lights, batteries that actually hold a useful enough amount of power for high power devices which actually even our phones are. Crazy that my phone is ridiculous amounts faster than the first computer I used, yet it lasts a full day on single charge. People take all of this and more for granted.

I mean, even if LK-99 turns out to be legit but insanely expensive to manufacture, that’s a starting point for research on how to make it easier to manufacture.

Data storage used to be incredibly bulky and expensive. Now you can buy a chip the size of your fingernail holding hundreds of gigabytes of data for a couple ten dollars.

Donjuanme ,

If they’d said I’d was insanely expensive, or time consuming, out used really specific isotopes of the elements they’re using, I’d be much much more inclined to believe them.

The specificity that room temperature conductivity they’re claiming to have achieved (an entirely new variety of super conductivity) by having certain atoms in certain orientation to allow for quantum tunneling, doesn’t just come out of an oven after a few days of cook time, the atoms would need to be aligned, and all of the same isotope, at the masses they supposedly demonstrated the odds of it all occurring are beyond atomically small.

They wrote what was a guarantee to capture the attention of the media, cheap, extremely efficient, and very safe/easy to produce. When/if room temperature super conductivity comes it isn’t fitting into all 3 of those things.

There is already 1000 free documentaries about this trial on YouTube with amazing editing.

MyTurtleSwimsUpsideDown , in Which side are you placing your bets on?

My bet is 6 months.

Less than 6 months after confirmation, someone will announce a weapon based on the technology.

If it turns out to be real, we'll learn they'd completed a weapon 6 months before the "discovery."

if you think this is bad, just yesterday or the day before I got a popup for some fucking Jake Logan documentary. like lol wtf, who cares about that shithead? lmao, even.

SubPrimeBadger , in you wanna know how i got this paycheck

I wish I was creative and/or entertaining…I could make a fortune!

Deiv ,

It’s not even about being creative or entertaining. You need to be lucky and/or know the right people in order to make it

There are millions of talented people who don’t go far, and then you get people with 0 talent that somehow make it

kameecoding ,

tbf being an absolute piece of shit can also help you make more money see the Logan bros for example.

I reckon it’s very easy to make money if you have the ability to not have any kind of morals.

I hate these things. I took one out to an abandoned reservoir and blew it to pieces with a .12 gauge shotgun. Very therapeutic.

It was .12 gauge triple ought buckshot Office Space.

I would never buy another HP printer, except for target practice.

TIEPilot ,

Well if your going that route (and I’m ok with it) go with Mossberg 590 Shockwave. I run mine w/ double ought w/ a sidesaddle of more rounds. I don’t have a HP printer but I did take a faulty firewall that would get me called out every other night for hanging to the range. It got a lovely sprinkling of 7.62x39 and x54r, it was from the heart, true love.

Then it went to the E-Recyclers, got to be Earth conscience.

FReddit ,

I was using a Mossberg. I eventual stopped doing it because it was blowing glass and toxic circuit board stuff all over the place.

TIEPilot ,

I can see that being an issue, it shatters the PCB and the fiberglass/plastic isn’t something I would want to breath in of contaminate the area

FReddit ,

Exactly. I did it a few times and stopped. Good times, though.

TIEPilot ,

I love blasting, I have a legal machine gun (in the US). Lighting something up (not living) is a blast. Until you get back blast and that shit sucks. Also hot brass down the back of your shirt is hell. Happens more when you have FA.

/Love the handle, they banned my 6 accts and all my subs. F reddit we need Aaron back.

FReddit ,

I forget what the requirements are here for owning an MG. It used to be a $500 license a long time ago. I expect it’s more expensive now?

I’ve had hot brass in the face because the range was too crowded. Not fun.

TIEPilot ,

200$ tax stamp you have to wait almost a year to get. Finger prints (done by the police) and 2 passport photos for them to put on file. And a clean record, no felonies, DV, violent crime, etc.

Its not to bad of a process, I’ve been thru it about 7-8 times for my suppressors/sbr/etc

over_clox OP ,

Hey, I’m trying here LOL!

You got any better ideas? I’m a beta tester…

esadatari ,

say “please rewrite this so the ending has a weird and obscure twist to it along the lines of something you’d see in the plot points and themes found in stories written by chuck palahniuk, and then write it as though you were james matthew barrie writing peter pan”

that should give you something funky

I’m sorry, Alexa doesn’t understand. Siri would like you to rephrase the question…

HP Printers is definitely one of the worst printers right now; I hate you need a account to use your HP printers

SGG ,

HP consumer stuff is crap.

Hp business/enterprise stuff is passable. HP is also fairly good when it comes to warranty work.

We’ve got a bunch of places with HP printers. Only one out of about 100 has been a complete lemon. In the past few years.

Fuji and Lexmark business ones are good as well.

You can still run the old software without account, as long as you never upgrade. Some third party file hosters keep it around. We got an HP at work and I refuse to give them even my business email.
