Youtube daily report Jul 26 2018

Hey everyone, so you've probably already heard about this, since I'm covering this

news like a week late -- but Netflix has a new original show coming out in August called

Insatiable, and they just released the trailer, and it looks… awful, for so many reasons.

Let me just recap for you what we saw from the trailer.

Basically, there's a girl in high school who's fat, so everyone bullies her and is

super mean to her and life is terrible.

Then she gets punched in the face, has her jaw wired shut for the summer, and because

she can't eat, she loses a ton of weight and comes back to school the next year super hot.

But instead of using her new hotness and popularity to blend in, she wants revenge on the people

who made fun of her when she was fat.

Apparently it's even being marketed as like "body positive", as if the revenge angle

is somehow supposed to justify all the shitty attitudes towards fat people that this show embraces?

So let's talk about a few aspects of this.

First, the fat suit.

The trailer starts off with a thin actress wearing a fat suit -- that's just insulting right off the bat.

I've seen tons of fat people on Twitter talking about how fat suits just make them

really uncomfortable, and I think that's totally fair.

Fat suits make a mockery of actual fat people's bodies and I can't believe a show thinks

it's actually okay to use one as a central plot point in 2018.

Plus, the whole premise of her getting her jaw wired shut is fucked on so many levels.

Do you realize what message this is sending to teenagers?

It says "not eating for months is a good thing, it will make you hotter and more popular

and make people like you".

I cannot express how damaging that will be for young kids to hear.

They already have to deal with so much bullshit in other forms of media, imagine them seeing this.

Imagine the effect it will have on impressionable teenage girls who think that if they starve

themselves they can be hot and popular too.

It just breaks my heart.

These young folks need to know that that's not how it works. None of this.

Starving yourself is never the answer.

This show is unrealistic in like 15 different ways, but it tries to pass itself off as realistic.

Like at least when we have superhero shows we know those aren't realistic, but this

is a show that's trying to pass itself off as grounded in reality when it's not.

Because look, with jaw wiring thing, this shit has actually been studied.

Like, scientists have actually studied people who used jaw wiring to lose weight.

Because our society would rather wire people's jaws shut than respect fat people.

Jesus fucking christ.

But anyway, a review of these studies from 2015 found that while jaw wiring often resulted

in rapid weight loss, that weight was consistently regained among patients.

So like, is this character just going to regain all the weight she lost?

Because that would be the realistic thing.

But somehow, I can't see the show doing that, since it would fuck with their whole

"now she's hot because she's skinny" bullshit.

Also, one other thing I noticed while looking at the the scientific review from 2015 was

that the average weight lost among patients was 25kg, or about 55lbs, over 6 months.

This show says she lost weight over summer break, so like, 2, maybe 3 months?

If her story was based in reality, she would've lost like 20 or 30 pounds, but the show clearly

shows her losing wayyyyy more than that, like at least a hundred pounds.

But young people are gonna see this show and think "Wow, I could look like that too if

I just didn't eat for a summer" and that's just not true that's not how bodies work!

Plus, when you have rapid weight loss, you definitely have stretch marks and loose/extra skin.

That's just how bodies work.

But she comes back to school rocking a crop top with no visible stretch marks or loose skin.

Because that would fuck with the show's whole "now she's conventionally attractive"

thing, even though people can be hot and have stretch marks, and have loose skin.

Like these things aren't mutually exclusive!

In fact, people can be fat, and hot.

Like there are so many hot fat people.

I just cannot understand the mindset of genuinely believe that fat is the opposite of beautiful.

You can be fat *and* beautiful.

Like there are so many gorgeous fat people in this world.

Where's the storyline of a fat girl having a glow up, still being fat as hell, and then getting revenge?

I'd watch the the shit out of that.

You don't have to throw in weight loss to make her hot.

Cast a fat actress, throw out the fat suit, portray a fat person as desirable and hot for once.

That would not be hard, and it would be a much better show with a much more positive message.

But okay I kinda got off track, there's another thing I want to talk about with this

storyline and that's: did she learn to do her hair and makeup better over the summer??

Like the show is so focused on the weight loss aspect of her that it ignores that she's

just like suddenly learned to do this amazing makeup over the summer as well.

Like now she's got this bright lipstick and glowing contour, as if she couldn't

have done that while she was fat?

I know so many fat people who are literal makeup artists.

Fat people can be amazing at makeup.

You don't have to lose weight to do really cool makeup.

This show was just really pushing the "here's the before, and here's the after" thing,

as if fat people only exist as a before -- but fat people exist as an after, all the time.

In fact, right now, there are fat people existing and thriving, and they're not a before.

In fact, I've seen fat people posting on Twitter and Instagram with the hashtag #NotYourBefore

and I just think that's fucking great and I support these folks 2000%.

Fat people deserve to be an After in the story as well, not just as the "tragic backstory".

There were a couple other things in the trailer as well.

Like she says that the other girls were off getting laid while she was at home "stuffing

another hole" -- and I don't even know where to start with that.

Like apparently you can only be getting laid *or* be eating a lot of food?

Shit, I know a lot of people who do both.

Fat people get laid all the fucking time.

And your weight isn't solely determined by if you just sit on the couch and eat food

all day -- weight is so much more complicated than that, and everyone's body just has

a different equilibrium where it's comfortable.

Blaming it all on someone sitting at home and eating food is reductive and ignores all

the complicated facets of weight.

Just everything about this trailer is wrong and harmful and just so far out there that

it seems like a parody -- but it's real.

And I just keep seeing the show's creators and actors defending it as some sort of "feminist

body positive" thing and I just cannot see that at all.

I think thin people are making a show that mocks fat people while simultaneously believing

that it's empowering because it makes them feel good. That's bullshit.

We should listen to fat people about this stuff.

Like, if you've only ever heard about this from me, please go seek out fat people talking

about this show because their opinions are infinitely more valuable than mine -- I just

wanted to voice my support for them.

One video I'd highly recommend is Meghan Tonjes's video on this subject because I

think she talks about it very eloquently, and she offers a perspective that I cannot give you.

So I'll link to that down in the description, and yeah, I think that's all I had for you today.

Thanks so much for watching, and I'll see you next time.

Upward Bound: Power Satellites - Duration: 30:15.

The universe provides so much power, yet we struggle to tap it and crave more.

Instead of being powerless, let's get off Earth and conquer space.

So today we continue the Upward Bound series and our look at how to get into space cheaper

and easier, and what we can do up there once we can place stuff in orbit more cheaply.

Of course, if you're up in space for a while you'll need a reliable power supply, and

that generally means either solar or atomic.

In terms of the latter, fusion is a good option if we can ever get it working, but fission

is not something folks want in orbit overhead in large quantities.

The big weaknesses of ground-based solar are that it's useless on cloudy days and at

night, but this is an area where being in space is actually a major advantage.

When we refer to the dark void of space, we're being more poetic than accurate.

Space near Earth is constantly lit brighter than the noon-time Sun, and indeed you'd

have to get out beyond the Asteroid Belt before solar stops being as effective there as it

is on most of Earth.

The equivalent of darkness in space depends on your distance from the Sun, or if something's

in between you and the Sun, placing you in the object's shadow.

While any object in a classic Low Earth orbit is spending a lot of its time in the relatively

large shadow of the planet, as you get further away less of your orbital path is in that

shadow.

Additionally, various non-circular obits, or locations like the Lagrange points, have

little to no time in shadow, eliminating most or all of the downtime experienced by solar

panels situated on the Earth.

As for wearing down over time, solar panels on Earth have to contend with dust, rain,

snow, hail, sandstorms, thermal fluctuations and other weathering, none of which are present

in the vacuum of space - and, needless to say, there are no clouds there either.

The total benefit is about seven times more kilowatts-hours per year from a given Photovoltaic

solar panel.

Perpetual lighting also eliminates most of the need for batteries.

All of which makes solar an excellent choice for space.

It's much more attractive than on Earth, and of course we're interested in getting

that energy to Earth, whether beamed down or otherwise, and eventually to other places

in space.

This idea has been looked at a lot for decades, but is becoming increasingly feasible now

that launch costs are plummeting.

For this to be practical though we have to overcome certain issues, and we should start

by laying those out.

First and foremost, getting stuff into space is expensive.

Doing that cheaper is, after all, what this series is mostly about.

A solar panel in space might be several times more effective than one on Earth, but if you

needed to spend hundreds of times more money to get that panel up there, while it remains

useful for powering things up there, it wouldn't really make sense to beam it down.

Not when you can far more easily deploy and maintain conveniently-sized arrays of panels

down here.

But down here you have to add energy storage, which is several times more expensive than

PV panels, if you want to compare apples to apples.

Second, there is the question of how you beam that energy down, and this comes with a lot

of problems.

For instance if you're beaming down with a visible-light laser, it still has to go

through all that air and clouds.

There is also an additional effect called thermal blooming that causes laser light to

be absorbed by the atmosphere over any significant distance, at least for frequencies that interact

with the atmosphere.

You also lose energy at every stage of the process, as you convert sunlight to electricity,

then into lasers, then down to Earth through the atmosphere, into a collector there, and

back into electricity again.

We'll be looking at these problems, some solutions, and some alternatives to visible

light today in greater detail.

But that brings up a third issue, which is safety.

A big giant laser is also known as a death ray, and with any power-beaming system, you

are directing a lot of energy into a potentially small place.

This is a serious problem if your beam goes off target from the collector, and over to

a city, be that as a result of an accident or deliberate action.

So we will be looking at ways you'd be trying to make one safe to use.

It is also worth remembering though that a giant laser in space also has some handy uses,

like blowing up incoming asteroids or space junk, not to mention it's a great way to

push spaceships up to high speeds, so we will also be discussing some of the non-terrestrial

uses of power-satellites later on, though our main focus is getting energy to Earth.

At this point, we have to start considering scale.

At present, humanity uses energy, from all sources combined, at an average power rate

of about 18 terawatts, 18 million megawatts, not including the solar energy used by photosynthesis

and evaporation.

That's about 2400 watts per person, day in and day out, every day, and while we are

getting a lot more efficient with power usage, we also have a lot of people in developing

regions who don't use much yet and hopefully will in the future; hopefully not too much

or too soon though because our main method of power generation has concerns about heating

up the planet.

We should start with a note there then, as folks often worry about power satellites heating

the planet by adding more energy, which of course they do.

The thing is, it isn't our direct use of energy that's heating the planet.

While we use energy at an 18 terawatt rate, Earth receives about 10 thousand times that

energy from sunlight.

The extra heat we add would be trivial on its own.

The concern is with greenhouses gases being released and trapping an additional fraction

of the solar energy, not the extra energy we consume directly.

However, power satellites are solar-powered, so were that a concern you could just have

them block incoming light to Earth, cutting down on how much reaches us.

Not that you'd bother, since you could easily use a mirror to do the job, which is cheaper,

thinner, and a lot less complex for such a geoengineering purpose.

18 Terawatts is a huge amount of power, and even our most efficient experimental solar

panels, those still being worked on in the lab, would only get about 600 watts per square

meter, in orbit.

To get up to 18 Terawatts, you'd need 30,000 square kilometers of our best panels, or a

single panel 100 kilometers in radius.

That wouldn't include any losses in transmission either.

Fortunately, we can assume high-efficiency panels are used, as the single biggest cost

to deploying a power satellite is launch cost, which we'll discuss in a moment.

Solar panels will continue to get lighter, cheaper, more durable, and more efficient

as times goes on.

But for the moment, if we use our top end figures for performance, we can do a panel

with thickness as low as 2 millimeters, massing only about 2 kilograms a square meter and

generating about 600 watts per kilogram in space, constantly.

To get 18 trillion watts out of 600 watts per square meter would require 30 billion

square meters or 30,000 square kilometers, at an approximate mass of 60 billion kilograms.

At current launch costs, that could run nearly a hundred trillion dollars, and doesn't

include any losses in transmission or other associated equipment.

However, these would likely have a lifetime of 20-30 years, and since the energy sector

is several trillion dollars a year, with estimated figures varying widely, spread out over 20-30

years this would already be approaching a competitive cost.

As manufacturing continues to improves and launch costs drop, this could get us into

the economically feasible zone for power satellites rather quickly, and now would seem a good

time to start prototyping to see if this can be made viable as launch costs drop.

However, this is SFIA so we're less interested in the next decade then the next century,

and the earlier episodes of this series discuss many launch systems that we already have the

tech for that can drop launch costs to a tenth or even a hundredth of what SpaceX's Falcon

Heavy can do.

As a reminder, stuff like Jim Powell's StarTram or Keith Lofstrom's Launch Loop or Paul

Birch's Orbital Ring are not all that high tech, they just have a big upfront cost, many

billions of dollars, which only looks big since we don't actually spend our relatively

small space budget on launching truly massive things.

Our annual ground to space launch volumes are tiny compared to a single day's traffic

through any major airport, and same as you don't build an international airport next

to a small village, you don't build these kind of launch systems till you are ready

to up your game and a launch a lot more, not because they are particularly high-tech.

When you are thinking about replacing a multi-trillion dollar sector of the economy, options like

those launch alternatives suddenly become much more attractive and profitable.

See those episodes for details, but even the most expensive of them are offering launch

costs smaller than the production cost of the power satellites.

It's also worth noting that much of their operational cost is electricity, which needless

to say is altered when you're launching gigawatt-sized power generators into orbit.

Additionally, most of the weight of a panel is still silicon, the second most abundant

element on the Moon's Surface, right after oxygen.

Nor are solar panels incredibly tricky to produce, especially when mass and efficiency

isn't much of an issue, and the moon is close enough for us to do remote operations,

so any factories there don't need much personnel physically present to operate, or sophisticated

artificial intelligence.

Before we move on, I should also note that photovoltaics, turning photons into electricity

the way a solar panel does, is not the only way to turn light into electricity.

We could, for instance, just concentrate light on a liquid in pipes so it heats up, boils,

and turns a turbine… a Thermal Powersat, like the prize-winning Flowersat design.

This is a viable way of generating power, provided the light is sufficiently intense,

and sunlight can be made incredibly intense.

Thermal methods are how most power generation occurs, using an atomic or chemical fuel source

for heat instead of sunlight.

If you can't make cheaper solar panels, you can always use a bunch of thin parabolic

mirrors and non-imaging light funnels to focus light on some substance to heat it and drive

a fairly standard heat engine.

Getting rid of the waste heat during the cycle is harder, when you can only remove heat from

a system in space by radiating it, but you can still use cooling by conduction and forced

convection inside it.

The back side of all those mirrors can also be used for radiating surfaces, too.

Even surfaces exposed to sunlight can potentially be used to radiate waste heat, by use of wavelength-selective

surfaces.

Okay, so we can collect it up there, but how do we get it down?

The traditionally suggested method is microwaves, in a beam, which worries folks a bit since

we all use those to heat up our food and they'll heat up a person, or a city, just as well.

We'll get to the safety issues in a bit.

First, why microwaves?

They are not the only option, but in terms of our spectrum, the atmosphere does a very

good job keeping out virtually all gamma and X-ray radiation, and the overwhelming majority

of Ultraviolet too, so they're not great wavelengths to use to get our energy past

the atmosphere.

Visible light goes through pretty well, obviously, but much is still lost even in an open sky,

and clouds obviously are murderous on visible light transmission.

Don't discard it just from that though.

Power satellites all around the planet can just re-target their beams to collectors not

obscured by the clouds, and only on the cloudiest days would we not have clear sky windows which

some powersats could use to get an angle on the ground-based collectors.

I should also note that we always want other power generation methods and energy storage

in any power grid anyway, so that some ground based collectors being blocked by clouds sometimes

is not really a deal-breaker for visible light.

Nor do you necessarily need to beam light down as a laser.

A big parabolic dish concentrating light on ground-based collectors is an option, too,

which gets around thermal blooming that happens when a high-powered laser enters a medium,

like air, that's absorbing some if it and heating up and scattering the beam a lot.

This, by the way, is a really big issue for using ground-based lasers to intercept missiles

or using lasers for ultra-high-bandwidth data transmission over long distances.

Since part of the point is to get power down at night, using the visible range of the spectrum

in broad diffuse beams could cause a lot of light pollution, though in some places this

might be advantageous.

Of all the spectrum, radio waves are the ones that basically ignore the atmosphere and clouds

the most over all, and microwaves, which are shorter than radio waves in wavelength, which

is where the name micro comes from, are quite good at going through our atmosphere, clouds

or not.

You might wonder about the danger of this, but if you are accessing this episode over

a wireless network, I should note that those use microwaves too and the same frequency

as your microwave oven.

There's nothing very special about that frequency by the way, it just in a small band

the FCC leaves free for non-broadcast purposes.

Equipment operating at these frequencies is also pretty efficient at converting between

electricity and microwaves, especially compared to lasers.

You can do better than 75% with a magnetron converting electricity into microwaves whereas

laser efficiency, as much as it's improved, is still generally more like 50%.

Our best new laser designs can almost match that, but historically, lasers have been much

less efficient.

Microwaves remain better, but not by the same overwhelming margin.

Here's the thing though, a Rectenna, a specialized type of antenna for absorbing these microwaves

and turning them back into electricity, has an efficiency of at least 85%, much better

than our best solar panels.

This means that any side-effect environmental heating from beamed-in microwaves will be

much less as well.

Now as to safety concerns, the general notion is to beam the energy in at about 100 Watts

per square meter, non-coincidentally what OSHA says is the maximum safe workplace exposure

amount.

To get 18 Terawatts, and keeping in mind 15% is lost in conversion by the Rectennas, would

require about 200,000 square kilometers of rectenna collector surface area.

Sounds big, and indeed it is, that's about the size of Nebraska.

Not that you'd be putting them all in the same place.

More to the point, that doesn't really seem much better than covering huge chunks of land

with solar panels.

Of course you could just increase power density, and fence the place off, but you'd still

be blowing birds away left and right and potentially have a doomsday weapon.

Though, realistically you could ramp the beam intensity up an order of magnitude without

producing too much of either problem.

Birds would tend to avoid them as uncomfortable or be able to swoop through before being hurt.

This is mostly just raw heat damage like being too near your fireplace, after all.

However, the neat thing about a Rectenna is that you can use multiple of them to cover

a wide area, and this area is not entirely lost to you, as a Rectenna is a mesh more

like chicken wire than an opaque glass panel, and tougher too.

Indeed you could beam it right down on a city and provide wireless power, though obviously

you'd want to be careful about concentrating it too much.

Incorporating solar panels into roads and parking lots obviously has extreme issues

with durability, while sticking a layer of chicken wire over farm fields or grazing land,

isn't difficult, nor is it that hard to concentrate such beams to such sizes and keep

them on target, nor will they torch a fiery furrow through the landscape as they go.

But the optical considerations of microwaves mean that rectennas receiving gigawatts will

necessarily be large, usually several kilometers across.

Safety is easily achieved by having the emitter and collector handshake, and the beam just

shuts off if it goes off target.

I should probably note that an optical version of this, using nanotech and metamaterials,

called the Nantenna, shows promise of achieving a 70% or higher conversion of optical light

frequencies to electricity.

The impact of this emerging technology on solar panels, ground or space based, might

be immense and very near at hand.

Again though, this is SFIA.

In this series, it's only been a few episodes since we were talking about Orbital Rings,

the great big rings around planets for getting into space once we want to be moving millions

of people and megatons of cargo back and forth between space and the ground on a daily basis.

An Orbital Ring is far cheaper, kilogram for kilogram, than any other options and you can

scale it up immensely if you want to, unlike rockets, where that kind of throughput would

also produce enough pollution and heat to mess with your climate.

If you want to do a lot of travel from ground to space, and you love your planet, you should

put a ring on it.

While the massive drop in launch costs is certainly handy, the orbital ring also brings

some benefits from being directly connected to the planet below.

You can run tethers and lines down to the surface without making them of super-materials

like graphene.

Though you may still want to use graphene in particular, since recent improvements are

being made in producing it in bulk, and it's quite a good conductor of electricity.

But the important point is that tethers going from the ring to the planet need only be reasonably

strong, not space-elevator strong, and don't have to be rigid or run in straight lines.

Because of this, they can be built with some extra features in mind, such as transmitting

power, bringing people or cargo to and from the cities near the ring, and can do so without

a lot of the hassle of something like a rocket.

You can't launch a rocket anywhere near a city, or any sort of spaceship meant for

that kind of speed and acceleration, not without damaging the city or even killing people,

so you'd have to commute to a launch pad far from that city and any of its suburbs.

Alternatively an Orbital Ring tether can leave from any terminal in that city as easily as

a train or subway, allowing direct transport of people from a city up to the Ring.

And for that matter, they can also transport up heat, something we might discuss more in

the future, but this is interesting in the context of Ecumenopolises, planet-wide cities,

or their little brothers, arcologies, in that it means space based power generation is actually

better than fusion, because a fusion reactor is still producing a lot of waste heat in

the process of making electricity.

Power plants generally lose over half their energy to heat loss in making electricity,

even before it hits the power grid, where even more is lost to resistance on the lines.

But a solar panel in space running electricity right down a cable to a city, or for that

matter a reactor in space doing the same, is not producing one extra drop of heat on

Earth that isn't in the grid.

So no heat is being produced due to electricity production waste, though of course all that

electricity will end as heat, either in the wires or at your house, it's just not leaving

half or more back at the power plant.

Orbital Rings a major investment, and they also aren't local, you have to encircle

the whole planet.

We do have another option, which can be done strictly at one location, and that is to build

Karman space-towers.

I call them that because they reach the Karman line, which is the generally accepted line

between our atmosphere and space.

Even with our material science today, we can build such a lightweight structure using Carbon

fiber materials.

We might even squeak by without having to resort to newer construction techniques too.

As many of you will be aware though, here at SFIA, we are very much in favour of using

active support systems to build higher and stronger.

See our episode on space towers, and particularly the Atlas Pillar, for how to do that.

As a brief recap, we support the tower by a series of fountains of material propelled

through the tower.

Our Karman towers are lightweight Atlas Pillars poking above the atmosphere with an energy

collector at the top.

Now, the atmosphere does not abruptly end as you go into space.

At the Karman line, which is 100 kilometers up, the air density is about 2.2 million times

less than at the surface.

That's handy for power generation, as we'll see.

Should you have trouble building quite that high, much of the advantage remains from going

shorter, but taller is better.

Atlas Pillars take a lot of power to keep them supported, how much depends on your efficiency

regenerating the momentum of the support material, in theory that could be a 100% efficient closed

loop but we're not there yet and these would use a fair amount of power.

You might ask what is the point of having a Karman Tower that consumes some of the power

it produces when you could just beam the energy to ground instead?

The answer is the energy collector is in space.

Having the collector in space handily gets around a lot of the transmission losses and

other problems we discussed, like thermal blooming, light pollution, hazards to animals,

and that trade off of concentration for safety.

You can skip a lot of the steps by just having big mirrors and parabolic dishes that can

point at a large array of solar collectors fanned out on top of that tower and flood

the panels with as much light as they can handle, and those mirrors can bounce light

to night side collectors just fine as well as filter out any frequencies we can't use

well or which might degrade the panels.

You stick one just north of a city so it never shadows it and run a low resistance power

line down it and now that city has a good power supply and a popular tourism spot, since

looking down from 100 kilometers up gives a breathtaking view of everything for a thousand

kilometers around.

It also has virtually no footprint on the ground, is very safe if there's a power

loss, offers ultra-high efficiency power transfer, and provides direct access to space and a

launch system.

See the Space Towers episode for more on this.

Another thing that having a direct connection between space and the ground gives us is an

ability to deal with the heat produced at the converter.

In space, the only way to get rid of heat is to radiate it away, which requires giant

radiators.

It's also less efficient than using convection and conduction, which are cooling options

only available on the ground.

If we pipe the heat back to Earth, we can much more easily dissipate it.

We can also use the heat as a source of power in its own right, or use it as a way of desalinating

water with coastal Karman Towers.

Come to think of it, I like the idea of a steampunk solution.

We generate steam at the collector and use the steam pressure as part of the active support

of the tower itself.

We also tap it for energy using turbine generators and then pump the cooled fluid back up to

the collector.

The entire structure could be a giant steam engine converting the steam to electricity

as we go.

Traditionally you do this with magnets, launching material up a mass driver that's slowed

down and deflected back by a receiver up top, but in theory any flow of matter works.

So power satellites seems a much more attractive option, and a potential gateway to space as

launch costs drop.

We've talked about many industries that might fuel a snowball effect to help us get

into space, science, tourism, even filmmaking, but which of these can match energy?

A market making up roughly 10% of our global economy, and the biggest bottleneck on greater

prosperity for humanity in this modern era.

Get power satellite operations down to even just near the price per kilowatt-hour of other

existing sources, and it not only could power our homes here on Earth, but our efforts to

make homes off Earth.

And certainly the power demands to manufacture space habitats will be much higher than that

sized for the habitat's ongoing domestic consumption.

So, even if power generation was the first piece of infrastructure built, additional

power could be beamed to construction projects as needed - or even as emergency power later.

Indeed temporary beamed power for space projects, such as mining and construction could be a

major space industry in itself.

And its applications aren't just for Earth and near Earth.

As we'll see next week, when we continue our discussion of generation ships to colonize

distant stars, one of the hardest parts about traveling in deep space is getting up to the

speeds necessary to do it on reasonable timelines and to provide power to those ships, far from

the Sun, but still needing to keep warm and lit for those who dwell inside.

You can beam power out quite a long way, and you can use it to help ships get up to speed.

Of course slowing down is another matter, and one we'll discuss next week in "Exodus

Fleet".

Electricity is the life's blood of all of our science and industry here on Earth, and

will be for those ships too, and fundamentally, as launch costs drop and solar panels efficiency

rises, power satellites can offer us a virtually unlimited supply of electricity without the

ecological problems or supply bottlenecks of our current energy options.

We had to gloss over a lot of discussion of the basics of electromagnetism, induction,

current, heat engines, and other core topics that explain how power generation and transmission

is actually done, and why some of the methods we looked at today are better than others.

If you'd like to learn more about those topics or just brush up on them, then I'd

recommend the Regents Physics Reviews.

Those courses step through basic physics and some more advanced material in a detailed

and professional fashion, never skipping over terms by assuming folks already know them,

but also not dumbing things down either.

Those are available over at Skillshare, an online learning community that focuses on

assembling classes on technology and has courses on everything from basic sciences to a lot

of modern software, and I've been using a lot of their classes on video production,

audio engineering, and animations to improve the content here on the channel.

As mentioned, next week we'll be returning to our topic of Generation Ships to look at

ways to provide them the power they need to cover huge interstellar distances in reasonable

times and to keep their crew alive during those voyages through the empty ocean of space.

The week after that we'll be teaming up again with Joe Scott of Answers with Joe to

can get out and settle the galaxy, and ways we might avoid those, mitigate the damage,

or recover afterwards.

BROLY'S TRAGIC NEW BACKSTORY & Genetic Engineering In Dragon Ball Super Broly Movie Theory EXPLAINED - Duration: 11:33.

Broly is not a product of luck but rather a byproduct of genetic

engineering through gene modification and the manipulation of s cells by far

the biggest mystery in the Dragon Ball super bro lee movie trailer is the

introduction of say Liam baby incubators the way the evolution works is based on

spontaneous mutation all life forms have spontaneous mutations in their genome

but the species that survive are the ones where those mutations give them a

selective advantage then those mutations appear in our population and become more

abundant this is what's known as natural selection according to the legend a

legendary super saiyan appears every 1000 years based on this we can assume

that bro Lee is no more than just a rare mutation in the population based on

recessive traits that appear every 1000 years passed down by this alien

bloodline however this still doesn't explain how a mere mutation somehow

makes Broly stronger then super saiyan blue Goku this is where the salient baby

incubators come in the term genetic engineering initially referred to

various techniques used for the modification or the manipulation of

organisms through the process of heredity and reproduction including

vitro fertilization aka test-tube babies cloning and gene manipulation

Sigma V incubators have been a mystery to the Dragon Ball fandom since they

were first introduced four years ago on April 4th 2014 in Dragon Ball - castaway

child of destiny were invited Toriyama the manga implied that babies are kept

there for at least 3 years following their birth but beyond that there were

no other details given to us and by the way if you want to get a deep dive into

the story of saving baby incubators I did a whole video about this a few days

ago click on the top right of your screen to watch it anyways three years

after druggable - on november 30th 2017 in the psych Yuja magazine a special

interview with akira toriyama when

stupid the legendary Super Saiyan Toriyama revealed the story of young

Moshe and introduces the concept of s cells for the very first time in the

Dragon Ball franchise this interview just so happened to be taking place

during the production of the Dragon Ball super bro Lee movie itself and the

movies concept is the origin of the Saiyans powers so as cells or salient

cells are literally what makes a Super Saiyan possible and I am fairly certain

that we will see it in the movie but then eight months later after that

interview Akira Toriyama the official Twitter account for Dragon Ball super

confirms that Broly is in fact a legendary Saiyan for the Dragon Ball

super problem movie written by Akira Toriyama

then a few weeks later after that the Dragon Ball super movie trailer makes

canon sayin baby incubators and even as the trailer with a shot of a baby inside

of an incubator do you guys think that all of this is just pure coincidence

come on let's break it down this is where pair against comes into play

Dragon Ball Z movie number eight introduced berrigan's as a high-ranking

member of priest Vegeta's army but it was clearly shown to be completely

useless and weak in fact he wasn't even that smart he had to hire an alien from

another planet to create his mind control device so based on the evidence

it is my belief that para ggest is no longer a useless villain who has nothing

to offer on his own I believe that Akira Toriyama is

rewriting Paragons to be a scientist this would explain why he was able to

create an advanced mind control device powerful enough to restrain Brody this

also would explain why he would be a high-ranking member of kuvira's army and

wipe arrogance would finally be a companion villain to be feared so allow

me Han take measurement or by sampling if you need to the channel guys make

sure you subscribe with notifications so you guys don't miss out on the Dragon

Ball content so here is my theory after Frieza takes over this aliens on 8

700 the proud King Vegeta brought a way to

get his revenge he thanked his pair against the high ranking role of

figuring out how to make the Saiyans stronger strong enough to one day defeat

Lord Frieza para Gadsden begins to take newborns alien babies and conducts gene

altering experiment while they rest inside of the incubators he realizes

that s cells or Sagan cells is the key to making them stronger as cells are

microscopic cells fun is ours aliens and the number of ourselves

they have depends on the spirit of this alien in question so the more gentle the

spirit the greater the amount of vessels this is why para gaze ends up using

newborn babies over grown adults because babies are just were pure and innocent

making them the most effective candidates for SLE extraction also s

cells can be passed down through genetics which is why genetic

engineering can greatly boost the amount of s cells the next generation is born

with if you want to learn everything there is to know about s cells I did a

whole video breaking down everything we know about s cells so click on the top

right of your screen to watch that video after you finish watching this one so

now you're probably thinking so what happened to the babies after they were

tested on did they die well before you freak out it's very unlikely that the

babies would die from a mere extraction of s cells as there is no evidence that

shows that Saiyans require s cells in order to survive however I do believe

that the initial runs of tests their results in some casualties are IPS alien

babies but after some successful trials pair against realizes that he needs to

give as many SS as possible to one baby and of course he would choose his own

son to become the most powerful se young warrior so in my theory Broly is a

combination of natural gene mutation and of genetic engineering so how exactly

does para gets do it modern genetic engineering relies on the manipulation

of the Aqsa ribo nucleic acid aka DNA and refers to more specific

three methods of using recombinant DNA technology or gene cloning in which DNA

molecules from two or more sources are combined either within cells or in vitro

and are then inserted into host organisms in which they are able to

propagate DNA are the blueprints of life other than the DNA is genetic

engineering but nature also manipulates the image just from spontaneous

mutations mutation can also be induced by UV light and radiation which would

explain the light coming out of this alien baby incubators para gas is using

ultraviolet light and small doses of radiation to force the mutation of their

cells the problem with gene editing is that it

takes years to conduct tests it is extremely complicated and it is a very

expensive but that has now all changed with the introduction of a revolutionary

technology called CRISPR CRISPR is not only much cheaper and can

cut down years of testing into just weeks but it also gives scientists like

Perry cos the ability to edit life cells and turn genes on and off in fact we

weren't the only ones to think of this whatever fellow youtubers cursor Gatz in

a nutshell also sees the potential of genetic engineering of Sagan's as they

demonstrates how about hi tall muscular structure full hair how about giving

your child the gift of extraordinary intelligence huge changes are made as a

result of the personal decisions of millions of individuals that accumulate

according to akira toriyama a certain amount of battle power isn't

the necessary for becoming a super saiyan so just having a large number of

ourselves is not enough this would explain why bro Lee was born with a

battle power of over ten thousand para gays would have to have modify broglie's

genes when he was just an embryo which means that broadly by definition if this

is true is a designer baby a modified Savior this means that the changes of

broglie's genes are irreversible and can now be passed down to his future

children but there is one more thing that para gays can do to truly give

Broly the status of legendary Saiyan akira toriyama states that a Traeger

such as anger will explosively increase the s cells and cause a change in the

body that's a Super Saiyan now in the original Dragon Ball Z movie number

eight broglie's anger was due to his head of Goku when they were just babies

but in a recent video I did about why bro Lee is working for Frieza I provide

evidence that this may no longer be the case click on the top right of your

screen to watch that video so if broglie's anger in the Dragon Ball super

brony movie doesn't come from his hate towards Goku

then what does well this is once again where arrogance comes into play with

crisper mariga's could add a broglie's gene in a way to keep him in a constant

state of anger now in order to suppress this and group arrogance engineered a

necklace to suppress the anger however if the necklace is broken

Brodie's anger will continue to take over and his power level will continue

to grow endlessly no amount of talking and logic will hop comparably down at a

simply part of his DNA and is not outside of his control and this is the

tragedy of broli if my theory is correct then at the end of the Dragon Ball super

bully movie trailer we are just seeing Broly screaming out of anger

he is also screaming out of pain this makes Broly not a true villain but

rather a tragic victim of being a designer baby a victim of the

experiments conducted by his own father so if my theory is correct

can you really hate on brony I want to take my friend antimatter man for

providing some ideas used in this video even though he actually doesn't agree

with my theory but still big shout out to you my man and I also want to thank a

Twitter user bro o pond for tweeting this theory to me five days ago in which

I've adopted some of his ideas I also want to thank any of my subscribers who

for the past few days in my videos have commented or similar ideas yes

I do read the comments guys and if you'd like my Deary please give this video a

thumbs up I would really appreciate it even if you guys don't agree with it we

still put a lot of work into writing this and if I was able to entertain you

then I did my job share this video if you would and don't forget to enable

Can you do me a favor and tell me, where are all the exits?

Huh. Whoa.

Okay, am I being punked?

'Cause you're likin' me a little way too much.

All right, you know what? I'ma go with it.

Ahh!

Time's running out.

Yo, Z, is Art3mis pissed at me?

Dude, I'm pissed at you. You've never seen "The Shining", have you?

You know I hate scary movies!

We got the key.

Sweet! To room 237!

We ain't got no business goin' to room 237!

We should stay out!

Plus, there was this crazy, naked zombie lady in there.

There are no zombies in "The Shining".

Well, maybe it's not supposed to be like the movie.

Kira is the key. You're the one who said it.

Hey, y'all. I saw a picture of Kira!

Huh?

Where?

It's Kira. "Escape your past."

"The leap not taken."

Halliday's greatest fear wasn't "The Shining"

or any book or movie.

His biggest fear was kissing a girl.

That's the leap he couldn't take.

The ballroom.

Aech, come on.

Zombies. Told you.

That's her.

That's Kira.

None of this is in "The Shining".

Z, look. That's "the zombie-circle level" in "Mayhem Mansion",

one of Halliday's first games.

The whole "Shining" trivia is just a diversion.

One minute left.

How do we get to her?

Take the leap.

Wait!

Whoa!

Okay, Mr. Dead Guy. Cool if I lead?

Care to dance?

Do you know how long I've been waiting for you to ask?

Well, well, well.

So you found my Jade Key.

Ow!

Damn, I loved that bike.

Oh, Aech could...

Well, he's my friend, but he could fix it for you.

This is my workshop. Touch nothing.

Where did you find an Iron Giant?

Find it? I'm building it. That's a commission.

Oh, yeah. Aech is top-rated on the mod boards.

People all over the OASIS pay him serious coin.

Oh, hey, check this out!

Hey. Z, yo.

- The "Galactica", of course. - These are my babies, all right, man?

"Sulaco", from "Aliens".

Dude, how are you showing off my shit?

"Valley Forge", from "Silent Running". Oh, where's the Harkonnen Drop-Ship?

That thing is sick. Folds space like a boss.

I mean, you can get from Incipio to Arrakis in three seconds...

Fingers!

You'll have to excuse him.

He gets a little nervous around pretty girls.

I can fix it in 10 minutes.

Yup. He's pretty great.

I assume you and Shoulder Blades are clanned up.

Oh, Aech? Nah.

I mean, he's really good, but I don't clan.

Oh, 'cause you're Parzival,

as in the knight who found the Holy Grail by himself.

What about you, Art3mis?

Goddess of the hunt. Clans must be killing to sign you up.

- Favorite shooter? - Excuse me?

James Halliday's favorite first-person shooter.

- What? - Oh. GoldenEye.

- Playing as? - Oddjob. Is this a test?

Favorite game variant?

Game variant was "slappers only". No weapons.

I know what "slappers only" means. Racer?

"Turbo". And his favorite food was Hot Pockets.

Favorite restaurant was Chuck E Cheese.

Song was "Video Killed the Radio Star" by the Buggles.

Video was "Take on Me" by A-ha.

Oh, oh... His favorite quote was from "Superman".

"Some people can read "War and Peace""

"and come away thinking it's a simple adventure story..."

"Others can read the ingredients on the back of a chewing-gum wrapper"

"and unlock the secrets of the universe."

Lex Luthor.

Cool.

What would you do? If you won. The whole contest, I mean.

Oh! I mean, I've got tons of plans in the real world.

I'd... I'd move into a huge mansion, buy a bunch of cool shit, not be poor.

Now I know why you stopped short.

I stopped because of Kong. No one ever makes it past Kong.

That... That's... That's, like, a rule.

Well, then you know it can't be true. Because Halliday hated making rules.

I can't afford to zero out.

- You're afraid to lose your shit. - No, I'm not!

What happens when IOI offers you guaranteed coin

for the keys to the kingdom?

Nolan Sorrento takes over the world.

A real gunter would risk everything to save the OASIS from IOI.

Who said that?

Me.

There you go. Good as new.

Thanks for the fix-up, my man.

That's better.

I'll wave to you from the finish line, McFly.

That went well.

Thanks to you, Captain Big Mouth.

Wade? Wade? Where the hell are my gloves?

Shit. I gotta go.

Samsung Galaxy S9 update improves one of its newest features ● Tech News ● #TECH - Duration: 2:24.

When the Galaxy S9 and S9+ launched back in March the smartphones brought a number of

new features to the table.

A variable aperture lens allowed for better low light photography, supercharged internals

brought snappier performance and new slow-motion video features made for some of the biggest

reasons to grab the Samsung flagship.

But the company also introduced AR Emoji, a feature using the front camera to create

digital avatars based on the user's appearance.

The functionality appeared to take cues from Apple's Animoji that mimicked user movements

in the form of different characters.

But the Samsung feature was incredibly divisive with some users revelling in the GIFs that

could be produced from the virtual character while others saw it as a gimmick.

In our review of the Galaxy S9 and S9+ we said the feature was "fun" but admitted it

was probably "a bit of a waste of time".

But now Samsung is bringing a host of new customisation options to the divisive feature.

The forthcoming update will allow users to alter their AR Emoji's personal features with

a greater level of detail and precision.

Samsung hopes the new features will allow the AR Emoji to look more like the user it

is imitating.

In a blog post the company said: "With the update, after users snap a selfie to generate

their AR Emoji, they'll be able to easily make detailed adjustments to their AR Emoji's

hair, ears and facial features.

"This means that, for instance, when a child creates an AR Emoji, they'll be able to

adjust the shape of their face so that it more closely mirrors their own.

"And if you feel like your AR Emoji's eyes, nose, lips, cheeks or other facial features

are in need of a touch-up, the new My Emoji Editor function offers simple tools to fine-tune

these distinguishing characteristics."

The South Korean tech giant also claimed the update will enhance "AR Emoji's face-tracking

function with a 65-percent increase in 'landmark detector' points".

This means face tracking should work much better once the new update rolls out.

No official release date for the update has yet been provided.

El Somni d'Orfeu - Hospital Clínic de Barcelona - Jordi Savall - Duration: 3:00.

Today we played several pieces of music

in the entrance hall of the hospital

against a backdrop of noise

and practically non-existent silence

and yet

we performed a lot of music,

and with the musicians' great energy

we focussed on doing our best

to overcome the chaotic atmosphere,

which we managed to do

by concentrating and

creating a moment of incredible musical intensity,

because we had to cope

with the difficulties of an unfamiliar, inhospitable space

and an audience in which people

were coming and going while others were talking…

But even so, we succeeded

in making the music create a very powerful space

in which to perform and project.

We had to compete

with our environment and project the music

with the full strength of emotion.

And that is a fantastic experience, too.

Managing to overcome adverse circumstances...

I have experienced that when playing in refugee camps,

and it's a unique experience, because

it is then that you realize

the power of music

when music overcomes all the adverse circumstances

and you succeed in conveying

emotion, beauty and shared purpose in spite of everything,

and that is a miracle.

Who's Trying to Kill the Affordable Care Act? - Duration: 3:09.

Trump and Republicans in Congress haven't been able to officially kill the

Affordable Care Act,

but they're quietly using five strategies to destroy it.

Know what they're doing so you can hold them accountable on Election Day.

First, they've repealed the requirement that all Americans sign up for health insurance.

Republicans slipped this repeal into their tax cut for the wealthy and corporations.

But that requirement had meant enough healthy people were enrolled to cover the sick.

Without it, 4 million Americans will lose coverage by 2019 and premiums will increase

by 10 percent, according to the Congressional Budget Office.

Second, they've cut subsidies that help an estimated 6 million low-income Americans

afford coverage through private insurers.

Trump wants you to believe these cuts will save money.

Baloney.

Ending the subsidies is expected to drive up premiums, thereby increasing costs for

taxpayers.

Third, they want to flood the insurance market with junk plans.

They've made it easier for small businesses and individuals

to buy alternative types of health insurance with fewer benefits and weaker

protections, leaving sicker people and those with pre-existing conditions out in

the cold.

Fourth, they've made it harder for people to sign up for coverage – shortening the

enrollment period, scaling back outreach efforts, increasing the amount of paperwork.

It's even been reported that the Trump administration redirected funds from a marketing campaign

designed to promote enrollment to a campaign criticizing the law.

Fifth, they've stopped defending key provisions of the law in court.

The Justice Department has stopped defending the Affordable Care Act's protections for

Americans with pre-existing conditions in a case brought by Republican attorneys general.

In 2010, the Affordable Care Act was enacted to make health insurance available to people

regardless of their income or their health condition.

It wasn't perfect and was just one step toward a real solution like Medicare for

All, but it was a historic piece of legislation.

Don't let Trump and his enablers hide what they are doing.

When millions – including huge numbers of Trump supporters – lose the health coverage

What Cohen's Tape Could Reveal About Trump | NYT News - Duration: 1:44.

The following audio is part of a conversation

with Donald Trump that his then lawyer, Michael Cohen,

secretly recorded two months before the 2016 election.

[Transcript is in dispute.]

As you can hear, the audio abruptly cuts off at the end.

The two appear to be discussing payments

to a former Playboy model

who said she had an affair with Trump.

There was a real relationship there.

There were real feelings between the two of us.

Several things in the exchange are in dispute

by legal teams on each side.

So, we're not subtitling the video.

Let's play it one more time.

[Transcript is in dispute.]

Cohen's lawyer seems to suggest

that Trump wanted the payment to be secret

because he wanted it in cash.

"Everybody heard just now Donald Trump

say the word 'cash, cash'

after Michael Cohen mentioned financing.

The only people who use cash

are drug dealers and mobsters."

Trump's lawyer says the tape clears

the president of wrongdoing.

"The transcript makes it quite clear at the end,

that President Trump says,

quote, 'Don't pay with cash.'

There's no indication of any crime being committed

on this date."

So, what could the leaked tapes show?

Trump had knowledge about the hush payment,

although his campaign has denied it.

The use of cash may have been an effort

to keep the payments secret.

Or, Trump may have violated campaign finance laws.

Project Profile: Emergency Road Repair - Duration: 2:43.

After a major storm related road

collapse the county of Monterey was

able to quickly mobilize construction crews

and rebuild the road and just 16

weeks through their Job Order Contracting program.

The Elkhorn Road project was a project that came

up as a result of the winter storms

we had here in California last season.

The county has spent millions and millions of dollars addressing

emergency response work due to that

storm season and I would

say 90% of it was executed

through the JOC program. This road

was essentially washing

down the hill. A major section

of this road was completely undermined,

sinkhole status,

it was shut down, barricaded,

you couldn't use this road for access.

it was a major collapse Elkhorn

Elkhorn Road was one of my major roads

that I would take to go to work so

when Elkhorn Road collapsed

I had to go around and take the Highway 1

just like everybody else, so it really he was

a major detour.

The county of engaged one of their trusted

vendors to execute this so there

was a lot of rapport and

collaboration that already been established with this

team so when those storm

said and everyone got the call we

basically all put on our work hats and

went out there and were able to

quickly find solutions

mobilize people and we knew

what we had to do. We didn't have

time to go back and forth for 3

weeks, so we got a proposal,

eight people came to a room, we did a live

review, I made comments in eGordian

as we went along through the proposal,

added tasks in, revised qualities

came to a meeting of the minds

within a half a day on a proposal

I summarized everything live,

I sent it to the contractor that afternoon

they made the changes, we had a firm

price we issued a notice to proceed and we mobilized

the very next week. This was kind of monster.

They took this hillside and they rebuilt

it to support this road profile which

included a complete rebuilding

of the road section to address

water runoff so that doesn't continue to

erode the road and undermine

the foundation of the road.

It was a really well executed project.

Having seen that it was repaired

so quickly and with such

quality as a resident we were really pleased.

It's and it's nice to see your taxpayers

money used that way. That was a

really good project because it shows

that collaboration and also shows that

when things need to get done quickly

and you have good players

it's easily accomplished through

JOC. I don't know how they could have done the work

that they did without JOC in place.

Top 4 Best Practices for Creating Social Videos - Duration: 1:45.

(techno music)

- Hi, I'm Joe from Potratz,

and today on Potratz Pointers I'm going to be

talking about creative considerations

for making social videos.

First step is to capture.

When someone's going through their

mobile news feed it take them mere seconds

to determine whether you content is

watchable or skipable.

Facebook recommends that within

the first 15 seconds of your video,

you establish the goal of your video.

Whether that be by an incentive,

establishing your brand or what have you.

Step two is the design.

Design while keeping in mind that most people

are going to watch the first few seconds of your

video with the sound off.

So you have to communicate

your message visually.

You can use subtitles, graphics, or animations

to both engage the viewer and display

your information visually.

Step three is frame.

Frame your videos appropriately for the

platforms it's on.

On YouTube we recommend the normal 16X9

landscape format while on Facebook and Instagram

a square works best because it fits in the feed.

But if you're thinking of Instagram stories or

Facebook stories vertical is your best option.

Step four is simply just play.

Post the video and see how it reacts

with your viewers.

You can also use things such as

Facebook Creative Hub to test your videos,

or look at other people's successful

videos for inspiration.

That was this week's Potratz Pointer.

If you have any questions or comments

please leave them below and I'd love it

if you liked and shared this video.

And we'll see you next time.

Samsung Galaxy S9 update improves one of its newest features ● Tech News ● #TECH - Duration: 2:24.

When the Galaxy S9 and S9+ launched back in March the smartphones brought a number of

new features to the table.

A variable aperture lens allowed for better low light photography, supercharged internals

brought snappier performance and new slow-motion video features made for some of the biggest

reasons to grab the Samsung flagship.

But the company also introduced AR Emoji, a feature using the front camera to create

digital avatars based on the user's appearance.

The functionality appeared to take cues from Apple's Animoji that mimicked user movements

in the form of different characters.

But the Samsung feature was incredibly divisive with some users revelling in the GIFs that

could be produced from the virtual character while others saw it as a gimmick.

In our review of the Galaxy S9 and S9+ we said the feature was "fun" but admitted it

was probably "a bit of a waste of time".

But now Samsung is bringing a host of new customisation options to the divisive feature.

The forthcoming update will allow users to alter their AR Emoji's personal features with

a greater level of detail and precision.

Samsung hopes the new features will allow the AR Emoji to look more like the user it

is imitating.

In a blog post the company said: "With the update, after users snap a selfie to generate

their AR Emoji, they'll be able to easily make detailed adjustments to their AR Emoji's

hair, ears and facial features.

"This means that, for instance, when a child creates an AR Emoji, they'll be able to

adjust the shape of their face so that it more closely mirrors their own.

"And if you feel like your AR Emoji's eyes, nose, lips, cheeks or other facial features

are in need of a touch-up, the new My Emoji Editor function offers simple tools to fine-tune

these distinguishing characteristics."

The South Korean tech giant also claimed the update will enhance "AR Emoji's face-tracking

function with a 65-percent increase in 'landmark detector' points".

This means face tracking should work much better once the new update rolls out.

No official release date for the update has yet been provided.
