Yeah... At best click baity as fuck, at worst a complete scam.

Any time there is a 10x or more in a headline you are 10x or more likely to be right by calling it BS.

Whenever they say X whatever times, I doubt it right away, because they always interpret the statistics in the dumbest ways possible. You have a solar panel that is 28% efficient. There is no way it can be 20x times as efficient, that's just clickbait.

You just fucking wait. Trump is bringing manufacturing to the US. And when that plant opens someday you'll be so sorry you doubted.

I'm sure the foxconn plant in Wisconsin will fire up ANY DAY NOW! drums fingers

I talked to like 50 people today and all of the people said they were starting manufacturing plants tomorrow and they'll be fully functional Tuesday around 3:15.

I started mine earlier and I've already done manufacturing 3 times today. It's really easy. By this time tomorrow I'll have a couple more and they'll all be winning manufacturing.

Tariffs gave me the ability to finally believe in myself. Tariffs have increased my stamina in bed, given me a full head of hair again, and since I started manufacturing plant yesterday I've dropped 50 pounds.

Why? If they looked at how current tech works then they could easily develop the same tech 10000x faster

Easy, instead of developing the technology themselves they just copy it and claim they developed it 10000 times faster.

It's a play on the original title.

replace "the joke" with "irony" and then send the image to yourself

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Holy shit I think with the joke, irony, and the two of you, I might be able to put some sort of perpetual motion machine together! Now I just need some investors...
