There's also the matter of the battering ram they're taking against Roe v. Wade in the USSC today. There's a lot of live coverage I can't bring myself to watch.

It's been ten years away since the Seventies--is that ten years finally up?

https://www.sciencealert.com/for-the-first-time-a-fusion-reaction-has-generated-more-energy-than-absorbed-by-the-fuel

quote:

A major milestone has been breached in the quest for fusion energy.

For the first time, a fusion reaction has achieved a record 1.3 megajoule energy output – and for the first time, exceeding energy absorbed by the fuel used to trigger it.

Although there's still some way to go, the result represents a significant improvement on previous yields: eight times greater than experiments conducted just a few months prior, and 25 times greater than experiments conducted in 2018. It's a huge achievement.

Physicists at the National Ignition Facility at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory will be submitting a paper for peer review.

"The War Department" was traditional.

Wasn't the DoD renamed the same year that 1984 came out? Or pretty close to it?

The year before, yes. War Department and Navy Department were merged.

Is this guy full of poo poo or is his channel actually decent info?

Specifically his info about weapons systems

He doesn't go into the armaments in much detail, but what he does pretty much tracks. It's not like those systems are new and mysterious--they've used them all in the last several years, between Georgia, Crimea, and Syria.

You're allowed to openly mock any NATO ally is my rule of thumb.

This is the best argument for NATO expansion.
