i fucking lost it when they added sound effects to the old lady transformation, implying that stefan somehow literally cast magic to turn into a different person on-set
Yeah because they didn’t give sportacus a sound effect when he got his powers back which means the transformation happened in real time
Scientists have figured out how to use nuclear waste as an energy source, converting radioactive gas into artificial diamonds that could be used as batteries.
These diamonds, which are able to generate their own electrical current, could potentially provide a power source for thousands of years, due to the longstanding half-life of the radioactive substances they’re made from.
“There are no moving parts involved, no emissions generated, and no maintenance required, just direct electricity generation,” says geochemist Tom Scott from the University of Bristol in the UK.
“By encapsulating radioactive material inside diamonds, we turn a long-term problem of nuclear waste into a nuclear-powered battery and a long-term supply of clean energy.”
So basically science has given us a common staple of fantasy - crystals that have real tangible power. I will now assume all fantasy stories with power crystals and gems are post apocalyptic.
This is really cool, actually! Imagine, in maybe the next decade or so, we’ll possibly start seeing towns and cities powered by diamonds with a near infinite power supply!
