Poo. Everyone needs to do it. Some people have bags instead of bumholes. I have a condition which means I need medication or I’ll shit myself into a serious illness or injury. How many people would be saved if they weren’t so hung up on talking about their poo?
I read a variation of this years ago though the author of the one I read may have embellished it somewhat.
‘Yes, Nikola Tesla demonstrated wireless power transmission, but not quite in the way people often imagine.
In 1899, during his experiments in Colorado Springs, Tesla managed to wirelessly light incandescent lamps over a short distance (about 25 miles is sometimes claimed) using resonant inductive coupling. He used a large Tesla coil to create high-voltage electrical fields, which could transfer energy through the air. Some reports suggest that he successfully powered a bank of light bulbs several miles away, though there is no definitive proof.
Tesla’s ultimate vision was Wardenclyffe Tower, a massive structure designed to transmit electricity wirelessly across vast distances. However, the project was never completed due to financial issues and skepticism from investors like J.P. Morgan.
So while Tesla did achieve wireless power transfer over short distances, the idea of lighting bulbs miles away in a practical, controlled manner remains largely theoretical.’
I may be wrong but I believe Nikola Tesla was financed by wealthy New Yorkers after his separation from asshole Edison but they pulled the plug when they realised he was going to give away free power to people.
May be apocryphal but I think there was someone who invented a car that ran on water but big oil stepped in.
Not useless as such but a wallpaper app or something that expects you to pay £5.99 a month to use. Fuck all the way off with that
