minus-squareHugeNerd@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1arrow-down1·10 hours agoUh, it’s called “reality” my friend, try it. You can’t “invent” your way out of fundamental physical limits. A Boeing 747 looks the same in 1969 as it does today. It still flies over the Atlantic in six hours burning kerosene in turbofan engines. Sure, you can get a few percent here, a few percent there, but do you think suddenly we’ll have warp drive? Come on. Do you know how empty and huge space is?
