Wish I could. Only reason I know about it, is that it was mentioned briefly in the Navy Nuclear Power Program training materials.
- Comment on France runs fusion reactor for record 22 minutes 2 days ago:
No, but some guy proved that we could use that to our advantage. If you don’t use the magnetic constrictors to compensate for the heat from the fusion expanding the vessel, you can have it enter fusion and leave fusion several times a second. Wrap the thing in copper wire coils, and you have now got your vessel in a state of flux, and producing enough power to blackout your local grid, and get lots of fines from the feds in less than 5 seconds of runtime. He obviously didn’t continue working on that particular method of generating power with a Tokomak
- Comment on Far to many people think that Jesus from the Bible was light skinned, even though he grew up in what we call the Middle East. 2 days ago:
It’s kind of like being European and being descended from Charlemagne, or having almost any Middle Eastern, Russian, Tiberian, or Siberian claiming to be descended from Chingis Khan. Yes, it’s probably technically true for the majority of the people in those immediate geographic areas.
If David was one historical figure, and not an amalgamation of people, kinda like Shakespeare might have been, at the time that The New Testaments would have been written, David would have been dead for a few thousand years. We know from DNA that a single figure, namely Chingis Khan, fathered so many children that something like 20% of all people alive are descended from him. He existed less than 1000 years ago.
Charlemagne existed about 1000 years ago and fathered about 20% of Europeans that exist today.
Even in the time of the Christ, David would have been a few thousand years old, and was similarly prolific with his wives as Khan and Charlemagne. It’s entirely probable that Mary was also descended from David since most of The Tribe of Israel would have intermarried a lot more frequently than we would today.

Sure, but we all know you’re a liar, who yells one truth per game. Where did you get a potion of eternal youth anyway?

Italians and Irish weren’t considered white even 100 years ago. Haven’t you seen the photos of signs that read “Help Wanted, Irish and Italians need not apply!” ?

They can tell the difference between a Hispanic person and a Middle Easterner. I know because they call the latter group an extremely offensive racist slur while wearing their ICE gear.

This guy is directly descended from David, and therefore would have been from the same family as The Christ, just many many generations removed. The Christ probably looked very similar to the guy in this photo.

If The Christ was, in fact, directly descended from David, then this guy would have been one of his Niblings/ Cousins. The Christ probably would have looked very similar to the man in this picture.

Use a burner phone to post over public WiFi, if in the US. Then disassemble and trash the phone. Remember to use an alcohol wipe to clean any prints and DNA.

You need a fiduciary. Mine handles things like this, and gives me a yearly update on what I’m invested in. The two investment strategies I have her employing are primarily investments that help transition society to an ebviromentally sustainable model, and businesses that will have to clean up disasters waiting to happen.

If you can get a screwdriver through it, you might be able stick a pipe on said screwdriver to give you a lot more torque. Just have an oil pan underneath, because it will start leaking oil when you put the screwdriver through it.
