Dope Tech Episode 2

<<@hckie says : One point the train idea has going for it is that it can have a larger area of effect. Run them in Norway because they have a huge chunk of power coming from renewables. I don't think the idea of capturing carbon is all that bad, but the problem comes with scaling it so that it makes an impact. Maybe in the future if/when we manage to have an great enough energy surplus.>> <<@CRITICALHITRU says : It's disturbing how I can't tell if the soyface is a shill or is genuinely that far from reality.>> <<@torazis3286 says : They forgot to put a powerful magnet before the train to pull it forward>> <<@nathanjedrej792 says : Theyre always so stary and easrnest. Theyre the kind of people that ditch the necessary reading and dive straight into the proposals from the sci-fi minds of rich hippies. These people should watch conspiracy theory with mel gibson. Then, chain reaction with the bane of the pretend scientific mind with his pill colours of knowledge, keanu reaves and morgan freeman. Films to make one take a look at ones self.>> <<@kushal_ahmed says : My thermo professor says that it is possible to create breathtaking and marvelous inventions if you do not know thermodynamics>> <<@ExponentialWorkload says : As someone who's spent a lot of free time doing modelling of high-speed rail physics for real-time simulation thereof, this entire idea is painful to me. Like even ignoring all the free energy bullshit, the air intake will introduce a lot of drag and be very "efficient" (not). The most important part about making sure rail vehicles are able to operate efficiently - and more importantly, in a stable, reliable fashion - is making sure the walls and roof are smooth and flat on the horizontal axis. If you have these giant air vents at the top, you'd probably want to fill the area between them - and ideally also have that area on future coaches. On the images with an air intake and exhaust, you'll encounter aerodynamic issues both on the top of the car, as well as behind it. On the images without the exhaust with 2 intakes, you're making all of the physics outside of where the air gets captured even worse. (fun unrelated thing i felt like mentioning: you can literally make the front of a train more or less a brick with minimal impact, as long as the walls of the train are flush with eachother)>> <<@spacepirateivynova says : Tell you what, let's make the air capture cone able to change size like a giant soap sail, and we can use that as braking! And we can run the train like a sailboat!! Lmfao, is difficult to make this more stupid, but i am trying. Making trains aerodynamic is incredibly important. Putting a capture system for air that is loving to take a few percent of that air... Is going to be like pedaling your bike with a parachute behind you>> <<@spacepirateivynova says : Using the momentum of the train to capture air? It's going to take MORE ENERGY from the aerodynamic drag making the trains power to... Drive the train... Efficiency so much worse. This is a bad idea on all levels. Can we go back to solar roadways now? Those were the halcyon days when i thought people couldn't get more stupid.>> <<@Flibble42 says : The train spends most of it's time accelerating and holding it's speed thus burning fuel, Braking recovers almost nothing in comparison. Why can people not see that the math does not add up?>> <<@YukikoAkazui says : i had this idea when i was 6 and my dad told me why i was wrong...>> <<@MenschGebliebenerHaider67 says : But it identifies itself as a scientist; dissenting opinions are hate crimes and Nazi rhetoric.>> <<@ReinisSproģis says : It would have been interesting if you tried to reach out to these universities an people and see what they say have to say about it.>> <<@sourmcnuggets6178 says : At the time of writing this comment, a quantum engine has been made that actually calls the 2nd law of thermodynamics into question. It's early days yet, but it's mind blowing news! Crazy how things can change in a couple of years>> <<@_imps says : Does anyone except me see the resemblance between Erlich Bachman and Eric Bachman? The irony...>> <<@SpraYeRS77 says : The asap scientist makes me think gender studies phd.>> <<@spudhead169 says : 20 million subscribers and the guy is a complete moron. Wow, YouTube is seriously broken. How on earth could such an idiot get to that kind of status?>> <<@RobAlpacaflip says : 5 head but zero brain cells.>> <<@MemberRoach says : Genius plan "We're going to use fossil fuels to capture carbon dioxide, and then we're going to use the captured carbon dioxide to extract more fossil fuels." Have these poeople heard of thermodynamics? This is literally primary school level science.>> <<@FirstNullLast says : This is why Elon got rich. Snake oil salesmen not scientists>> <<@MechMK1 says : Anyone who over-gestures with their hands during speaking, particularly doing "bird hands", can safely be disregarded.>> <<@konraddapper says : When will people finally learn that 9/10 pople from reputabel Universität X working on a Projekt mean som Unsergrad in a basement did somthing for three month We now Talk removed all context an Claim IT Changes everything.>> <<@Amokhunter says : Somehow I think the next President of the USA will be "Camacho"...>> <<@jbauerlu2 says : put the train underground maybe into a vacuum tube then you can catch more co2 with 3000km an hour. we only need to make a law against the woke physik.>> <<@larrybremer4930 says : None of this will matter because fusion is only 20 years away, just like it has been since 1950, 20 years away.>> <<@glitter_fart says : Weird, Youtube keeps suggesting your videos after i watch something about priate software being a complete piece of shit.>> <<@LLAYOBOY says : Next up on Thunderf00t: All humans that have ever existed.... BUSTED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! All atoms in the observable universe...... ........... .................. BUSTED !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!>> <<@unf3z4nt says : And I was thinking of using nuclear energy and stupendous amounts of renewable energy to capture carbon not using rolling stock.>> <<@johnmarten4184 says : I'm not an expert on electric and hybrid powertrains, but my deceased brother-in-was. Net recovery for regenerative braking is 15-20%. Thats great is the vehicle has a battery and powerline motor-generator but not worth adding hardware to capture.>> <<@GrowthCurveMarketing says : ASAPScience offers considerable supporting evidence that we are actively devolving.>> <<@OphidianGG says : Don't even need to be an engineer to see how bad of an idea this is. Good lord how do they come up with this BS?>> <<@PifflePrattle says : 2025 comment. Whenever you think you've reached peak stupidity you soon discover it was just a local maxima.>> <<@dualexistence says : If the train Naruto runs we can capture more carbons!>> <<@mattterry1255 says : Why is that guy acting so gay?>> <<@mattterry1255 says : CO2 is plant food, not a poison, and greenhouses only work b/c IR/heat is PHYSICALLY trapped by glass. Not GAS. These eco-warriors are the most bonkers bozos this side of fundy Islam. The Left does evil everywhere it touches.>> <<@willtricks9432 says : Thanks for lifting the rock hiding ASAPScamcience. did not know those critters existed.>> <<@willtricks9432 says : So the Train as they do now, needs to enter a Tunnel, the Tunnels will need to be Bagger to accommodate the air capture hat on the train. In wooded areas trees will need to be cut back or removed reducing natures own Free Carbon Capture. A few wrinkles to iron out there.>> <<@chaughten says : If this even worked, why does this need to be on a train? 🚂>> <<@RoyClendaniel says : I hate all this pop-sci crap all over the internet.>> <<@jort93z says : I think part of the benefit of this system, ist that all you need to do to implement it, is to put a thing on the roof of the locomotive and then couple this traincar to it. You don't need to modify the locomotive any further, and it will work fine without the carbon capture thing too. Building a whole new locomotive is very expensive. It might just be better than nothing.>> <<@AnthonyvanHamond says : lets be honest, the guy heard "sucking on a train" and was all in , no matter what.>> <<@AdamTheCoop1 says : I'm autistic and I'm here to say I'm SICK OF THE TRAINS. THATS ENOUGH TRAINS!>> <<@JelloTypeR says : I’ve spotted a tell. You can tell when he’s lying as his lips move. It’s all PR spin and BS. I’d wager the club will be sold in the next 12 months. Hopefully not to an American hedge fund.>> <<@noobFPV says : Those *%*&*^ have 10 million subscribers ? I am sad.>> <<@icowrich says : What about when the train is going downhill? Wouldn't you be able to do carbon capture in those periods?>> <<@oathblade says : Youtube just promoted this to me as a new video. <.<>> <<@Prometheus4096 says : Trees are free carbon capture. But you made a while bunch of videos against doing that. Also, not burning fossil fuels but keeping them in the ground captures a lot of carbon. Also, if we have a ton of overproduction from solar and wind, we can use that excess energy to capture carbon. And finally, as someone who did a lot of videos on nuclear energy and nuclear reactions, you should do a busted video on electricity from nuclear power in 2025 and onwards. Including on SMRs.>> <<@LandLockedOctopus says : Looks like these knobs saw the Hyperloop plot-arc, and thought: "Hold my tiara, carbon capture is the new White Paper!".>> <<@sebastianjakubzik2807 says : always love your busting. a detail here. solar cells actually still produce energy, even if they aren't in the sun directly (diffuse light) it is just much lower than directly exposed. (but is till produces, amazingly modules still produce during rain.e.g.)>> <<@joschemd says : Totally forgot when he didn't have EDS.. man i miss that>> <<@engineerncook6138 says : "Diesel" locomotives are actually diesel electric systems where the diesel engine spins a generator that make electricity to turn electric motors that turn the wheels. Those motors operate as generators and provide braking. The electricity generated from breaking is dissipated in large banks of air cooled resistors on top of the locomotive but could be stored in batteries or capacitors for reuse.>>
