FREE Energy Tomorrow Ping!..................

[plain talk]

Cool stuff and only the beginning. Government needs to get out of the way of research, stop politicizing it and let it run its course.

[teeman8r]

wasn’t tesla on to something like this with static electricity?

[BenLurkin]

Cross engineer it with those 24,000 year old Rotifers.

Then turn them loose at landfills.

[Still Thinking]

Paging Mr. Galt, Mr. John Galt please pick up the white courtesy phone.

[chrisser]

Just what we need. Robots with a fully independent power source.

I thought Terminator was supposed to be a warning, but it appears we’re using it as a cookbook.

What happens when you suck all the energy out of the environment?

The lead authors of the study are MIT graduate student Albert Tianxiang Liu and former MIT researcher Yuichiro Kunai. Other authors include former graduate student Anton Cottrill, postdocs Amir Kaplan and Hyunah Kim, graduate student Ge Zhang, and recent MIT graduates Rafid Mollah and Yannick Eatmon.

I'm noticing a trend here. I doubt these kids took any "Woke" math or were taught CRT BS.

Tech Ping

[metmom]

Many years ago I read a book, the name I can’t remember unfortunately, that postulated this very thing, that nanomachines could be built and programmed like virus3s and injected into people.

At that point, they could mess with your DNA and the only ones “immune “ to it were the ones controlling it and you.

I didn’t think I’d live to see this starting to become a reality.

VP Harris and AOC thinks it’s a great idea we don’t have to burn coal for electricity for our cars all we have to do is drag it behind the car.

Graphene is a zero-gap semiconductor, because its conduction and valence bands meet at the Dirac points. The Dirac points are six locations in momentum space, on the edge of the Brillouin zone, divided into two non-equivalent sets of three points. The two sets are labeled K and K’. The sets give graphene a valley degeneracy of gv = 2. By contrast, for traditional semiconductors the primary point of interest is generally Γ, where momentum is zero. Four electronic properties separate it from other condensed matter systems.

This is not a scientific article, it’s scientific blarney. Any REAL science would tell the reader where the energy comes from. It is not sufficient to say from “the environment”. That’s meaningless. Does “the environment” change temperature, does it flow from a source, does it chemically change? We don’t know!

[super7man]

They left out the part sentence that says, “All the big problems are solved and all we need to do is get it into production.”

[lepton]

So what’s the entropy/energy cost?
