France has upped the ante in the quest for fusion power by maintaining a plasma reaction for over 22 minutes – a new record. The milestone was reached on February 12 at the Commissariat à l'énergie atomique et aux énergies alternatives (CEA) WEST Tokamak reactor.

    Meanwhile in America we’re trying to make macdonalds cheaper by bundling an extra sandwich to go along with a value meal…

        And it only takes 22 seconds to consume.

            Which means you are still consuming the burger for 10 seconds fully regretting your decision.

              110% commitment to the burger and the regret. USA! USA!

            That’s way better than Taco Bell, where the regret sinks in when you consider going there.

                Oh I have, and they’re delicious. I still regret it every time though because of how low quality everything is.

          And keeps you sated for another 22 seconds.

          Then you want seconds.

      America would blow up a fusion reacto, call it dangerous, elon musk has a lot of things to say about it and then it would be illegal worldwide. Have you guys heard about coal? We already fixed it, just burn coal.

          That was such a culture shock when I went to the us for the first time.

          In Germany and many places in Europe do not think of burgers as sandwiches. I was so confused when I ordered a sandwich and got something like a burger.

          I expected something like this

          I expected something like this. My confusion must’ve been quite the sight, the waitress even seemed concerned. Tasted great though.

            Only difference between that and a burger is a burger is usually on a roll, not slices of bread. (And a burger is always hot, but then so are some sandwiches.)
