Fusion is slowly becoming more promising. The oil mafia has been actively fighting the idea that their product would become irrelevant for half a century.

[โ€“] blady_blah@lemmy.world 1 points 11 hours ago

Let's be realistic, fusion is way down on the list of things that "big oil" is concerned about.

It's only a matter of time before evolutionary biologists and paleontologists are found dead.

However, neighbours told local reporters they heard gunfire before alerting authorities.

What an actually completely ridiculous sentence, lol. You mean to tell me that they didn't alert authorities just for the fun of it, and heard gunshots a few hours later?

Thatโ€™s AI journalism for ya.

Oh shit did he discover cold fusion?

Like a fool, he kept it hidden in his home refrigerator ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ

[โ€“] Apocalypteroid@feddit.uk 9 points 2 days ago

Gotta keep it cold somehow

[โ€“] Prikkeres@feddit.nl 1 points 2 days ago

I thought one had to hide it in oneโ€™s bra.

Can't have a European hold the secrets to cold fusion... They are too left wing, for now...

Didn't they have a socialist government until a recent coup d'etat by the state's attorney?

[โ€“] mitram2@lemmy.pt 1 points 2 days ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

XD

They call themselves the socialist party, yes. But in practice they are a seen as center-left party and their implemented policies would be placed a lot of the times in the liberal spectrum (liberal as in economically liberal).

They did re-nationalize an airline in the last decade, but they have also expanded public-private partnerships significantly.

The coal industry is taking more desperate steps now to keep themselves alive /j (?)

[โ€“] rbesfe@lemmy.ca 4 points 2 days ago

Considering how many Iranian nuclear scientists mossad has killed, this could be some form of payback. Just my personal tinfoil hat theory

Clearly he figured out cold fusion and they had to stop ~~him~~ Keanu

That's not very nice

[โ€“] Anonymaus@feddit.org 3 points 2 days ago

Welp, it happens. Don't let his discoveries be hidden.

Who was the one who knocked?
