Well it's a very interesting topic. Did someone else also talk about this topic?

Even though I don't block ads personally, I think I understand where he's coming from. Basically, he thinks he's not affected by advertising, so showing him ads is a waste of the publisher's/advertiser's money. Indeed, logically if that's true, then it is a waste of resources showing that advert to him, and obviously it's bad for him too, so lose-lose.

Indeed it could be argued that only 'less techie' people respond to ads, and that 'intelligent' people aren't vulnerable to them. I don't 100% agree with that notion, though I can sympathize with those who think that way.

Any idea why they can't scale these things up to produce nuclear-power plant levels of energy? Imagine a giant helix, 100x-1000x bigger than the ones in that link.

There's your first mistake.

That looks too good for commerical airlines to adopt. Too futuristic, and not 'practical' enough, only good aesthetics which don't matter, yeah.

No I meant the stuff you had produced while you were alive. Keeping it online after you were gone may be beneficial.

Perhaps from an unselfish perspective, assuming you had something to offer humanity...

Buy a Tesla, and you too will become part of the crowd which accelerates at every given opportunity ;)

It's definitely kW. Even on the following site, it mentioned the kW power limit. We're talking in terms of power remember, not energy.

carlyfiorina.org makes for insightful reading. I understood a lot about her conservative economic position after visiting.

Just to check - did you get my latest email? In case you didn't, here's the exe again which should hopefully work with your second monitor:

Wait, did you not mean kW instead of kWh? I was only just recently moaning about that in another thread.

Just as well the EM drive still requires a source of energy then. What I'd like to know though is where the energy is going to. Is it just bouncing around inside the cavity and heating it up as a result?

I think that if this is valid, the correct theory will follow soon enough anyway, but in principle, why must we know how something works before letting it benefit humanity? Did the early caveman have a deep understanding of fire when they were roasting their woolly mammoth cuisine?

It's almost as if everyone tries to get it purposely wrong. Even tossing a coin would yield a better success rate.

It's so easy to understand. Just like "their" versus "they're".
