There are some fusion designs that use direct energy conversion.

Oh, same. Absolute favorite.

I admittedly can’t imagine people wanting such a thing. They really are of a different fabric it seems, hurt people hurting people. I guess all the rest of us can do is support letting people know there’s another option and helping them escape that trap if desired.
They don’t want to live like us, fostering the mind over breaking down the body. So be it, I guess.

Missing the point, dumb.
We need food, the jobs were available and I want people doing the work to have rights too. I don’t want to pick strawberries. I will gladly pay someone to get some for me, if the price is right.
Are you a “brown person”? I guess I am as well.

Fuckin’ glad I’m not your son, my dad was a real man who actually put the work in to help me become a caring and effective man, not watch me founder and mentally shrivel.
I feel for you, and for this country we both call home.

Apparently I can’t curse at you & your low energy understanding of the world, last comment removed.
I stand by what I said before, I believe all workers should be paid fairly, have access to things like bathrooms & water, and be able to easily come and go as they need & desire.
Try getting better nutrition, it’ll help with your energy problem.

I hear what you’re saying. What boring people to be afraid of novel cultures.
Anyway, fine, close the border and make it so only US citizens can do all the labor nobody wants to do. Watch how much doesn’t get done; the economics behind work and such don’t change rapidly. I’ll bet most small farmers get destroyed with fields full of rotten cross because nobody can offer a citizen enough to do the work that still yields a profit. The billionaires with factory farms and prison labor will win out.

I agree that it’s low-hanging- nope. Bailing on that one.
I do think quality farm work is critical for our health as a nation, and I don’t mean economically.
Can we automate it? Maybe. Till then, someone’s gotta do it, and for those who go into it, there’s gotta be a floor on job quality, seemingly basic things like bathroom and water breaks.

Sure, the unborn work for that too.
I just wonder what is so scary about immigrants to people?

Why is there such an obsession with immigration?
Do you want to pick strawberries? It’s back-breaking and sucks.

I discovered this the fuckin hard way, bought a container of ladybugs and distributed them along my various plants getting sapped by aphids. Next morning, only the goddamn aphids remained…

I got a long one from red wing while getting the boots, as a “freebie”. Solid steel.

Should we add an exception when it comes to technical discussions?

The rest of us will do what we can. Maybe others will join, maybe not. Onwards we go.

Crazier still, for the wealthy, boiling down piss was how they’d measure your sugar level back in the 20s through 40s. Ugh.

Dayum. How often do they need refilling? With rebco magnets out there, surprised we’re not using more ln2 instead.
Maybe just older machines?
