In other news, a cure for cancer is “just around the corner”.

Which is going to happen first, commercial nuclear fusion or the death of Mother Gaia from climate change?

“...heating a nuclear reactor to the “magic figure” of 100 million degrees Celsius.”

I did not read the article. These high temps are nothing new, when attained in fractions of seconds. Still, a long way to go. Might be good for lighting a cigar.

I’m hoping that they create a black hole that swallows the damn planet.

Only 10 more years!

But it's closer to reality, so only 7 more years!

The left will shut it down if it threatens their energy rationing plans.

Cool stuff. Probably take another 50 years or so but what an amazing power source some day.

I’m wondering... Will one of these things be our modern-day “Tower of Babel” that will trigger God’s action...? Such a tower was basically the height of technology back then.

The dream of productive cold fusion is constantly being promoted.

Tell me when a cold fusion plant is up and running. Until then, I don’t want to hear a word about breakthroughs or potential. Let me know when it is in commercial use.

I don’t believe it will be in my lifetime of maybe 20 years left.

Get rid of the scientists and ask AI to do it. AI will be replacing doctors soon. So, why not? </s>

Fusion makes no sense on at least three levels.
1. There is no fuel available.
2. Fission is safe and uranium abundant.
3. It will be extremely expensive.

They got the temp up to the previous record of 99.99999999 million degrees and then held a Zippo under the test tube.

Great idea if it will work, but needs to be perfected. This is why any energy plan needs to include a structured transition with way points to confirm on target. The current plan of shut down existing energy with no replacement is crazy.
