because they actually want it. and don't care if it isn't profitable in the short term
Breadtube if it didn't suck.
Post videos you genuinely enjoy and want to share, duh. Celebrate the diversity of interests shared by chapochatters by posting a deep dive into Venetian kelp farming, I dunno. Also media criticism, bite-sized versions of left-wing theory, all the stuff you expected. But I am curious about that kelp farming thing now that you mentioned it.
Low effort / spam videos might be removed, especially weeb content.
There is a cytube that you can paste videos into and watch with whoever happens to be around. It's open submission unless there's something important to commandeer it with at the time.
A weekly watch party happens every Saturday (Sunday down under), with video nominations Saturday-Monday, voting Monday-Thursday. See the pin for whatever stage it's currently in.

The ultimate demonstration of capitalism's inferiority
I don't think that's even a question if isn't going to be profitable at the short, or long time, but that its success isn't make other interests unprofitable, like in capitalist societies, so there's no one with the power of the accumulated capital influencing tge government to cut it off. Imagine the green technologies we could have now, if wasn't for the gas and oil industry sabotaging it for decades.
In communism, there's no su-

Someone said president Xi can we have the sun and he said we have the sun at home

If anything would spark immediate nuclear war it would be this.
why
Unlimited fusion energy threatens those whose power is built on other methods of providing energy.
Why would it lead to immediate nuclear war? Are there any pieces from American/Russian think tanks advocating for the death of billions if nuclear fusion is achieved in a commercial setting that I'm not aware of?
Almost all global power is built around oil, gas and coal. No petrodollar means no US power worldwide.

As soon as they believe the technology is real they will be. But it'll be more subtle than that, they're not going to outright say it's because of fusion energy they're going to say it's because the chinese are sneaky evil orientals and communism must be stopped.
While I think that war is possible as a last ditch attempt to stop a geopolitical dominance shift, it's a huge leap to say that "immediate nuclear war" is incoming.
nah, workable fusion needs a very replicable, cheap distribution scheme before it's a real threat, and they can manipulate the narrative, & trade of such technology. look at how long they delayed wind & solar without murdering everyone involved in it
Looking forward to the mental gymnastics cope Westoids will resort to to maintain the "Chinese can't innovate, only copy" narrative.
Edit: I got it. The cope will be "Chinese create cheap artificial knock off of the sun".
sunning bros, we are SO back
Crazy how people came up with all these different reactor designs and it turns out the tokamak was the most promising all along.
The soviets and eastern bloc planned to build solar panels in space and harvest its energys in the 80s.
I did a while ago look up the gdr economic developmental plans for some industrial cities and it was heavily focused on microelectronics.
I donut believe it!
I hope China gets fusion. But I really hope they let the west collapse before selling it to the rest of the world. If the absolutely corrupt West gets a permanent lease on life I expect an Elysium (the movie, and terrible example but I can't think of a better one right now) type situation for the world.
The west is unlikely to use fusion power. The reason we don't use fission is that the plants are so expensive and take so long to build that the person who decided on making them has left the company by the time they turn a profit. Fusion plants will most likely be more expensive and take longer to build.
They could probably precipitate the collapse of the West by exporting fusion technology to Africa and South America
Xi:
the power of the sun, in the palm of my hand
I'm a little suspicious that they clearly show a bunch of westerners touring the place and looking credulous but they never quote them. If you're not going to have them say "yeah I'm a nuclear physicist and this shit's real" then it just looks like cheap b-reel. I'm not saying their actors, but they for sure ain't physicists.
Entire article quoted:
China's new-generation "artificial sun" project Huanliu-3 (HL-3) has achieved remarkable progress in controlling nuclear fusion by discovering and realizing a new advanced magnetic field structure for the first time in the world, according to the China National Nuclear Corporation, one of the country's largest nuclear power operators.
What is this? Propaganda for ants? Do better.
China has achieved remarkable progress in controlling nuclear fusion by fusioning their nuclears better than ever before!
China wants to blow up the real sun.
Why else would they be trying to make an artificial one?
the red sun rising in the sky is china's artificial sun
the sun rising in my heart is still mao zedong, though. always was
The red sun isn't the only thing rising this morning
It's me, rising out of bed to make breakfast
When your state's propaganda is centered around making achievements in technology good for humanity, rather than showing how good you do murder
assign the engineers bodyguards and keep them off commercial flights lol
(once it's actually close to being viable)
