So by you logic, we should have never funded some seemingly pointless experiment with inert, useless rocks, and instead would have directed funding to “relevant” things like making motor engines better, or advancing coal mining tech. And solar panels never would have been invented.

Exept you don’t know whats relevant till you look into it. Take solar panels for example. Those rely on rare earth metals that until recently had basically no use. They were first invented by coating selenium with a thin layer of gold. No one had any idea that would result in a photovoltaic effect.

Well yeah. It probably does that every year right?

Ozempic was understood by people researching Gila monsters. The science behind modern microchips relies on physics discovered in the 1900s. If we only ever researched things that were directly and immediately relevant to our problems, we'd still be trying to make coal furnaces 0.05% more efficient

I kinda have this but instead of weeks it's years and instead of responding to text messages it's with literally everything.

I think this just mean that like the rock won't get completely incinerated when the sun swallows it. Pretty sure the first, like, hundred miles of the surface is still cooked.

Threads is not a real site. The only things on there are
1. Real accounts that just got linked from some random instagram account 2 years ago but are never actually used

and

2. The accounts that actually post and reply, that are solely run by bots.
