Physicists Blow Up Gold With Giant Lasers, Accidentally Disprove Renowned Physics Model
For the first time, physicists have directly measured the temperature of extremely hot gold particles using a giant X-ray laser—a breakthrough with major implications for engineering spacecraft or nuclear fusion reactors.
I reckon it's a non story really. The superfluid only lasted a few trillionths of a second, in view of the high density of gold, a few trillionths of a second is too little time for the scattered atoms to gain much distance from the liquid gold to change into a gas or plasma. So what they found is probably not breaking any physics.

Where will the money come from? Membership fees or donations?

"High heel proof" ? How long until first time they get sued coz someone gets electrocuted? :confused:
"Zzzapp! grifters assemble"
Let me guess, the council has no responsibility, "Kerb doodah" have no responsibility, so who carries the can?

Great comment: "Transition" from something that works to something that doesn't.
Q. What did we use for light before candles granpa?
A. Electricity
Demand for electricity grows a lot faster than gas. What does that tell you? That renewables are much more used than gas. As for invreased demand , put it down to seasonal factors like tourists.

I'm pretty sure that my demand for electricity hasn't gone up faster than gas. I would say definitely the opposite. I now only use 5 units of electricity per day, every day the same. My demand for gas has increased because I have my house warmer in the winter due to getting older. I haven't seen any tourists in my house. Should I invest in stronger locks? How do they get in?
