I know I'm being unreasonable here, but I don't get how people think they're making good points when they show stuff like this. Any wacko can just say well clearly that was made in a studio and/or CGI. It's like when you call a bigot a bigot, like you really think that's gonna change their mind? I mean the video is neat and all, but it's not gonna pwn the flat earthers

A few weeks ago I saw a video of a Foucault pendulum knocking down pegs and the comments were dominated by one dude insisting that the pendulum doesn't demonstrate that the earth rotates. He kept insisting that he wasn't a flat earther, but also that the earth being round was a "narrative".

Nothing is real and everything is a narrative but I don't let that stop me from having a good time like flying to Europe over Iceland or utilizing 400 years of survey data to argue with my neighbor about a fence.

At some point you realize that some people have checked entirely out of the reasoned argument group chat and so you just poo poo post at them instead.

Using that reactor design is remarkably more sane than the piston version. I don't quite understand why people wanted to put heavy and complicated machinery on a train though. Rail electrification wasn't exactly unknown at the time…
