Almost exactly, yeah

Naw, that still assumes anon is a real person, telling a real story.

As a rule, anything posted to /b/ is an artistic work of fiction or falshood, and only a fool would believe otherwise

$100 says the green text is an artistic work of falsehood

That is absolutely ridiculous and also absolutely on brand for her.

Don't disparage your comrades like that; Putin is not a communist.

I've seen useful ads, dozens of times. Usually for camping equipment

Lol, Nestle doesn't distill shit, it's just bottled tap water

I was thinking tera or exa watt output would be needed, which is less than our global energy consumption, but hilariously more than any individual power plant could produce, regardless of whether it's fission, fusion, natural gas, or coal.

An antimatter powered generator might be able to hit the mark, but good luck with that; both building an antimatter power plant, and creating enough antimatter in the first place

I like the way you think, but I don't think Three Mile's remaining reactor has the output you'd need.

Actually, I wonder what the wattage of an average hurricane is. Somebody has to have done the math, probably Randall.

As far as I'm concerned, that's the point at which unrealized gains should be taxed: as soon as you're using it as leverage

A big enough laser pointed at the ocean would probably get a hurricane started; just gotta get enough moisture and heat into the air.

Now, powering the thing would be tricky, and doing it all unnoticed...
