Juche Girlboss Respecter 40K @TinkzorgReplying to @MorlockPIronically, the chances of Thiel understanding the finer points of how to generate fusion power for commercial purposes are only very slightly higher than me doing the same.

also, the video talked about waste heat, and how only half the energy that the machine takes actually goes into plasma...well...that waste heat is exactly what a power station uses ... so that damned well does count towards the output energy
