Huh. So I guess fusion is only 20 years away.

Give it another 20 years, maybe it'll only be 15 years away then!

Article is misleading and basically bullshit.

Hmm, so it basically quotes https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/dec/14/first-edition-nuclear-fusion , which among other things says that the energy produced by the thing is currently unusable (which is what the video quotes at 9:00)
Still feels like a breakthrough

Maybe they're upset that this isn't an independent replication by a different group? It's the same facility and group reporting these results because this machine is truly one of a kind.

Well you take a few of the letters out of the title and you can spell bullshit. I guess?

Sounds like every article about fusion ngl
