Let the Machines do the Work (The end of Slavery)

[Ekaros]

I'm pretty sure the other guy just addressed this issue, and in a non-trolly manner. Please take his lead

Certainly. Ekaros, all yours.

(Some prep reading, FinShaggy: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_thermal_energy )

Yeah, good read. I'm not sure such system do really scale for home use...

And there is a reason that your suggestion is not already implemented.

Are you sure?

Ha, nice
Already in existence... I guess no invention necessary, just development now.

Interesting. You'll note that it uses high-efficiency cells, and requires additional trackers, and cooling. Throwing more light at an inefficient cell doesn't increase it's efficiency.

So it sounds like we just have to develop the technology, and you are too lazy to even talk about doing that, lol. Wow. TROLL, by nature... You don't even realize you are doing it...

Shag, why not go out and get this stuff done?  We've already talked enough about it, now's the time for action.

You do realize that people are developing the technology? People are working as we speak to increase PV efficiency and power output. Telling you that slapping a magnifying glass on a regular panel isn't going to help much isn't trolling, it's injecting a little reality into your THC-soaked fantasy.

I AM POOR.

But I'm getting paid in June, and I will be doing exactly that.

Great, then maybe next time you could say that NOT like a mad troll. And if they develop it, I'll just buy that and try to make it better.

I really don't see how you aren't understanding this.

NO MATTER HOW GOOD SHIT GETS, I WANT TO MAKE IT BETTER

I'm glad for you. I wish you luck. You'll forgive me, I hope, if I don't expect much in the way of results from a broke stoner.

If you can't expect things from a broke stoner, then you must not believe in Apple/Mac, or America itself (founded by rich stoners that made everything out of hemp)...

Or the beginning of civilization, which was the cult of Pashupati, which can be traced to the cult of Shiva, or MARIJUANA lol

And of course the old man on the mountain and his crazy ninja stoners...  The ORIGINAL Assassins, Hashashins

They got results. All I've seen from you so far is unrealistic dreams. Now, go, and exceed my expectations. I wish you luck.

Unrealistic? Other people are LITERALLY developing the technology that you are calling 'unrealistic dreams' lol...

All I've seen from you is mouth diarrhea

Oops, sorry. Unrealistic dreams and one half-baked idea that other people are already decades ahead of you on.

Development is not a competition. I bet there were people when Stephen Hawking was growing up that were like "Stupid wheelchair slut, Einstein already figured that stuff out!"

I somehow doubt it. Especially considering the fact that he wasn't diagnosed with ALS until he was 21.

Was he not into physics before that?

He already had a bachelor's degree, first-class honors, and was working on his doctorate.

You know you could look this info up on Wikipedia, right?

So you know you just proved my point? lol

Sure. You can have this "win."  I'm not interested in chasing down your stoner logic to figure out what point I've just "proven."
