why would this scam be any different from a number of free energy scams that stupid investors poured their money into in previous years?

you're wrong to assume that they couldn't find idiots who would invest in something that looks like an obvious scam to most.

investor hoax into free energy goes like this:

they get the investors and then spend the money on "research", which is paying themselfs a salary.

steorn ceo drives around in a porsche, with money from the investors. if he is stupid enough he can believe that he can get away with this at the end - not all scammers in recent history thad had done similar - VERY SIMILAR! almost exact 1:1 except without all the publicity - investment scams with "free energy" even had an exit strategy(which is why some end up in jail or on the run).

you, as all orbo believers, should understand the fact that there has been numerous scams that are strikingly similar, that people defended with the same stupid assumptions that nobody could be that stupid to run such a scam....

youtube mobile works on pretty much all phones that can stream video and have a browser..

upload tools however.. they tend to be just for smartphones(s60 etc..)

what's with all the "earth was once flat" things? that stuff out of steors pr?

breaking the laws is not about "tapping into energy of the universe", fusion and fission could be said to be such things(tapping into energy of the univers, doh, well, every generator is..).

mass to energy, or the other way.. well. that's vastly different to making energy out of nothing.

the notion that earth was flat wasn't based on anything(quite the opposite, that belief opposed previously known facts). nor was that earth was the center of universe - a belief that you can make a perpetual motion machine isn't based on anything, quite the opposite. now, thousands of years ago earths diameter was actually calculated(you could do it by length of shadows, to a well, iirc). and so known that it wasn't flat. no need for columbus, as you could prove earth as round without going around it and it had already been done.

100% of free energy devices have been bullshit. no, they haven't been bought out by oil companies, who would if they had such technology make gazillions and bazillions and bizillions of money - INSANE AMOUNTS. there is better money in unlimited energy than in oil, amazingly!


if you have brains then you understand why everyone is skeptical about something that is totally similar to dozens of previous scams, none of which produced free energy. free energy would be quite a big thing - on the scale of the whole UNIVERSE, not just earth(that's why that one guys comment about intergalactic domination), like building machines out of entire planets and moving galaxies. if they said they had a domestic fusion generator.. even that would be a lot more believiable.

will you be back for "told you so"? believing in something that most probably isn't going to happen is stupid. would you loan money to, or give the benefit of a doubt, a guy saying that he'll win the lottery 10 times in a row? of course not, but even that is more probable than these guys being the real deal.

I got no idea why this bs is even covered on engadget as they could fill the whole blog with such pseudoscience scams. and if it's true, even then it's sensible at this point to say that it's bs and not give a rats ass about it - if they're scamsters then giving them more hype is just more power to them, if they're the real deal then they'll have no problem generating all the money they need with their energy generating devices. at this point they're like dozen other scamsters, treat them like that.

or do you give the benefit of doubt to any 419 scammer too? they're more likely to be the real deal as wel....
