    Solving too many mysteries is not a complaint I have for the scientists… Not having free energy yet is

      Not having free energy yet is

      Have you not noticed the bright ball of gas that lights up the sky during the day?

      It bathes the earth in free energy.

        Nothing is free. Eventually Huītzilōpōchtli will consume the Earth to settle the debt we own him.

        Yeah, but you have to put energy into getting that energy.

            I tried plugging my phone into the elm tree out back. Turns out it doesn’t work, and also it wasn’t an elm tree, it was the neighbor, and he was pissed when he woke up.

              the elm tree

              Well, there is your problem, it should be ash for apple products and Birch for Android.

              If you are lucky and have a eucalyptus near by they work for all phones.

        That’s why we’ve been trapping all this extra energy! Free real estate baby. It’s just good economics.

        …I’ve just been informed that DC is now underwater

        Failing that, you can always hook up to the neighbors power meter;

      nothing can be free in a capitalist society

      unless you mean perpetual motion/magic energy in which case that was solved hundreds of years ago. It can’t be done
