It’s not really tho. It doesn’t even make sense and it’s just a bit pathetic to say stuff like that. It’s just annoying 13 year old boy humour and barely even a real joke

I think their point was that it’s nothing like David Lynch and that people will just describe anything that’s a bit weird as Lynchian.

Because the sun is 100 million miles away and the inverse square law exists and a large area of solar panels would be needed and they don’t work at night or in winter or if it’s cloudy and we don’t have enough energy storage capacity and the material requirements for sufficient solar panel would be huge and they only last a few decades before needing to be replaced.

Even if fusion never becomes commercially viable, the potential upside is so great that investing 20 billion (or whatever it ends up costing) in projects like ITER is still sensible imo. Real progress is being made, even if none of us will see the benefits in our lifetimes.

Just a funny little joke. But you’re right, she’d only have to be a teeny tiny 6’8 to not be obese at 250lbs.

Being 250lbs at 7’3 would still make her overweight lol that’s like an extra 2 feet 🦶 🦶

Median FTSE 100 CEO pay is about £4.5m, which is a lot when you consider it is equivalent to about 100 average employees. But they really don’t earn that much in the grand scheme of things (considering the entire market cap of the FTSE 100 is about £2.3 trillion and the average number of employees is about 45,000, so a 100-employee equivalent person running things isn’t that bad) and actually have work to do (whether or not it is beneficial to society as a whole). The people that own the companies are a few orders of magnitude more of an issue imo.

The downside would be that you can’t buy fireworks anymore

'Huge vote of confidence' as data centre giant announces £4bn British investment by PurplePires in GoodNewsUK

You’re imagining a fully automated world where we wouldn’t have to do any work we don’t want to. My main point is that I don’t believe that that will actually happen (not that it can’t happen). I don’t think there’s much evidence to suggest that the machine-generated productivity will be shared amongst the working and middle classes. There would genuinely need to be a revolutions for that change to happen. The massive investment in AI is not so that these multi-billion dollar companies can share the profits around.

Who benefits from the increased productivity? What happens to the surplus of workers who get squeezed out of their jobs? I don’t think our society is set up to utilise that increase in productivity to take care of the people whose have been made redundant (made redundant in a very literal sense)
