If \(CH_4\) is #SteamReformed to produce \(H_2\) #fuel and the process emits copious amounts of \(CO\) and \(CO_2\) as byproduct, where is the net gains in #green?🤦‍♂️

Oh, I get it; we must build a #DysonSphere round our solar system, and harvest both the solar energy and the hydrogen from our Sun. Anyway, the Sun is going to die in about 5 billion years and humanity is supposedly the only sentient species in the solar system, so we might as well go at it and be done with it.🤷‍♂️

So much for "green #hydrogen", or more like "so much cost" thereof.

Humans—we cannot have good things, because we are innately #wasteful.

Hydrogen Fuel Basics

Hydrogen is a clean fuel that, when consumed in a fuel cell, produces only water. Hydrogen can be produced from a variety of domestic resources.

Vandaag 10 jaar geleden https://sailing-dulce.nl/home/article-4796 #ZonneEnergie #ruimte #DysonSphere Zondag 28-02-2016 Een bericht in de New Scientist trekt mijn aandacht: 'Over tien jaar vangen we zonne-energie op in de ruimte'. Een klein en geheimzinnig bedrijf in Californië gaat met grote zonnecollectoren op 36.000 kilometer hoogte in de ruimte zonne-energie produceren. Die wordt met microgolven doorgestraald naar energiecentrales op aarde. Een vrijwel oneindige bron van energie. Het is geen nieuw idee, maar..
Nützen hochentwickelte Außerirdische die Energie ihrer Heimatsterne mit riesigen Konstruktionen im All? Grundsätzlich wären sie kein Ding der Unmöglichkeit, sagt ein Experte. #sfcd #DysonSphere #science #aliens

DER STANDARD

It's called a Dyson Sphere because inside it's a vacuum.

New Story Alert! My little story about big robots is out now at Dream Theory Media. Check it out, as well as all their other flash fiction pieces.

I'm stoked this story found a good home. It's one I've been wanting to share for a long time.

And for those wondering, yes this is Tower of Babel with giant robots in space, and yes it was a lot of fun to write.

Dybot of Sol

by Jayde Holmes Now all the People of Earth were connected and prosperous, so they said to each other, “Come, let us send out probes and map the heavens.” They built the fastest ever propulsion systems and entwined-particle instantaneous communication devices, so they could uncover wonders within the lifetime of

took me weeks but I finally did it again!

getting to the point where I can build a dysonsphere again without any of my previous pre-covid blueprints
this is actually a big deal for me progress wise

the first 2 screenshots took me from 21.7. to 23.7.

11.11. the 3rd: where I finally managed interplanetary travel

25.12. the 4th: FINALLY was able to start a dyson sphere, after 71h of play

Vandaag 10 jaar geleden https://sailing-dulce.nl/home/article-4634 #KIC8462852 #TabbysStar #DysonSphere Maandag 19-10-2015 Even wat correcties op mijn post van eergisteren over het vreemde lichtpatroon van ster KIC 8462852 bij het sterrenbeeld Zwaan. De mate van de periodieke verduistering bedraagt niet 80%, maar maximaal 22%. Dat is overigens op zich ongebruikelijk veel, normaliter is het niet meer dan 1%, bijvoorbeeld bij een passage van een planeet van de grootte van Jupiter. Geen andere ster leverde zulke..

If you need a break from all the bad news, Angela Collier is great.

dyson spheres are a joke

youtu.be/fLzEX1TPBFM I was always confused as to how the #dysonsphere would work. Turns out is was a joke, similar to how MSG started to be vilified and people quoted it and believed it. #physics #dyson

The original #DysonSphere paper is a joke!
(Freeman Dyson himself said so in 2003)

Angela Collier goes through the ONE-PAGE #paper, pointing out how it’s obviously saying this is an insanely stupid idea based on the numbers, speculating that Dyson wrote the paper as joke including obviously nazi terms like “Lebensraum” or “Malthusian pressures” there as a hint.

Of course today we have #siliconvalley nazi-adjacents citing this paper all the time 🥴
