Best TV 2015: what TV should you buy?


New Links.

It's likely similar things were said when the internal combustion engine made it's appearance. I wonder if in 100 years fossil fuels will be banned completely? Aircraft running on solar power....road vehicles on electricity....ships on solar....trains (already) electric....central heating systems on dual solar/electric....etc..
Makes you wonder what will happen to all of the companies associated with the oil industry. Presumably diversify or go under.

Exec - it is inevitable.

A very interesting and useful discussion on R5 now about Electric cars, generation etc..

I was juss finkin....

Even if we can get a fusion reactor going and get limitless energy and free electricity....

Currently, the only way we have of making any use of it is via the National Grid and it won't be fit for purpose. It is going to cost an absolute fortune building a new Grid all over the world.

Hmmm?

I suppose one solution is to build individual and portable fusion reactors.

I bags Foggy for a red one.

By 2040....

2140

2140

Hmmm?

So....? What do we get then? Not that I'll be getting it, anyway, as I intend to opt for cryo-freezing until 2240.

kidA - 2140?

ExecLine,

Whatever the German cartel deem us fit to receive; probably some bodged solar battery and diesel hybrid - the case will say battery but will also contain a diesel plant. On being found out, they will claim it carbon neutral because the 50% battery cancels the 50% diesel.

skinny - a government plan, 2140 is being optimistic.

Cheers,
KidA

The government plan is for 2040.

What happens when a different government get in?

That will just determine which sh*t is used as fuel in post 441!

skinny,

The current plan is for 2040. :)

Cheers,
KidA

Love Westminster Councils lamp post charging scheme which I suppose will be funded from issuing FPN's to those motorists parking on the yellow lines to recharge their vehicles (as highlighted in their video). Is this simply another scam to fleece motorists, or I am being overly cynical - you decide!

I think we should start a rumour that IQE is about to be renamed as iQE!
