I'm telling you as someone who works as a Floorhand, has a masters in economics and did my thesis on energy economics. /pol/ doesn't know shit.

Modern society RELIES on oil, there's no alternative. Nuclear is good for some things but we still need oil. OIL is where it's at, and it's not close to running out.

Same. All the companies in the industry are rebranding as energy or energy technology firms for PR reasons, but the reality is there's still at least centuries of oil left in existing sectors and the world is entirely dependent on a steady supply of oil and gas with no end in site anytime soon.

the funny thing is, we can actually make oil from coal but it is much more energy intensive to do so. the only reason natural oil is so great is because it's still relatively cheap, provides good energy for what it is, and is easily transportable. it will be a dire time to live in when oil is no longer cheap. thankfully it won't be in our lifetimes

It's bullshit. I wish it were true but it's not. Scientists are pretty dead set on the notion that oil comes from organic material. The Abiotic oil theory's only redeeming counter argument is that maybe organic material eats away at oil and that's why we find organic material within oil, but the people who study this stuff generally discard it.

But it can't. A hospital janitor here once posted a pic of a shit-filled bedpan wedged into a toilet bowl that he had to deal with. His point was that a robot fails when it encounters a wild card situation, so mechanization can only happen in an environment where the whole universe is confined to one benchtop.

90% of organic precursors used in the GLOBAL industry are derived from oil.

If you need "Ivy League" schooling to grasp that and then come here to show off in front of some retards, "Ivy League" retains its reputation.

Dynastic school system that is used to "educate" the "elites". While in reality it is nothing more than a social circle that outputs research on the work of Chinese and Indians with 180 IQ who then, in their productive years, become the slaves of the system while the nepobabies get their ruling positions based on nothing more than daddies and uncles.

Prove the abiotic mechanism and publish a paper on it or gtfo.

Hurr Durr, I'm an engineer on an oil rig, hurr Durr, I have a Masters from Ivy League. GTFO.

You Americans idolize the 10 or whatever no. of schools you consider elite, and I can't understand why. A sexually abused paraplegic negro with Down syndrome had a higher chance of entrance at some point than a normie 130 IQ american white male.

>>
>>540487144
it works that you need an inflated ego, and that will boost your will to write what you think to the world in the places where you believe the truth get published, that’s scientific journals. All this has the effect of making you feel important, and making you think that your work is immortal since you advanced the knowledge of science.
You keep writing papers for yourself and only for your self, improving your extreme knowledge in a smaller and smaller field.
At some point you might find out that what you do is not so useful. By that point in general you are already a tenured professor/researcher and you became completely unemployable in any other profession.
You keep doing what you do until you die, and no one comes to your funerals
>>
>>540487117
>until the well fills back up?
even if oil is abiotic it would take hundreds of thousands of years if not millions for the wells to fill back up
>>
>>540487815
we know it will take hundred millions of years. Abiotic or biotic doesn’t make any difference on the matter. Although it is obviously biotic, it’s obvious

>>540487520
You've described precisely the ego based scientists. Which are the plague of modern academia, from history to astrophysics, the same bullshit "oh, your math may be mathing but this fits our current understanding better because we've said so and we built our careers on it".

Science must be pursued only for the sake of better modelling and understanding the world.

The advantage now is that we have AI. It can't collapse wave functions(like our brains do) to get information out of the Universe's ass but it can correlate existing information very well. Any published paper that is solid in reasoning will become public AI training knowledge and AI will have better cross references to disprove or prove mainstream bullshit.

It's basically the great pirate era for anyone with an academic background. If you prove and publish theories the mainstream considers schizo, it will become permanent public knowledge, permanently written in some weights and used by AI to further the research.

A truthseeker doesn't care about recognition or being right, he cares about understanding the world better or building something due to pure curiosity.
Plus, OP triggered me due to his elitist behavior, while the information he provided can be found by the retards here with a single Google search.

And +++ I'd rather die alone and unremembered. A name, a plaque or writings you leave behind don't come close to capturing the essence of yourself. In 3 generations everyone will forget your existence and if "lucky" some physical or digital data carrying your signature will live on, decoupled from anything you truly were, just temporary snapshots. The more you care about others and yourself the harder this world traps you. Shed the ego and anything you're doing and be free. The guidance will come clearly from inside afterwards.

One important detail I want to add.
One day, in the close future, the Jews will invent a goyslop that look like AI but it isn’t. They are already working at it. And then they will feed this goyslop to everyone else saying it is AI. And keep AI as a tool for themself alone to enforce their nepotistic power.
That would create a world of obscurity and corruption. We should do everything to avoid that to happen.

>the more you care about other people and yourself, the harder this world seems to trap you.
I felt that when my grandfather, who raised me, got sick and became dependent on me. I wanted to help, but I couldn't do much because we were dirt poor, and I ended up feeling completely hopeless. Things just kept getting worse.

It's like the more you care, the worse things get. Now that I've calmed down and accepted that reality is mostly out of my control, things have started to feel a little easier. It's a shame my young, stubborn mind had to get beaten over the head by life to finally learn that lesson. I wish I could genuinely learn from other people's mistakes without having to go through so much shit myself. But I guess it's only natural to have to suffer a little to truly learn and grow, after all.

didn't this already happen? chatgpt, gemini, etc etc, are all trash filled with censorship and you must go through intense shenanigans to get some pieces of based (in reality) information.

just stop oil was about stopping new increases in uk oil production (specifically new licenses)
I agree some people don't appreciate that oil is a critical, wonderful feestock for the chemical/materials industry, and oil fuels are still unmatched in some domains, but I don't think these people are an issue though, since their views aren't going to be implemented soon.
The politicians and mouthpieces who insist on avoiding electrification and renewables do cause harm though.

A lot of MIGA shills lately have been using that tactic. Talking about how they run like million dollar company building data centers or some other shit like oil rigs. Saying the have upper level education and invent shit.

Must have got a new talking point from Elon.
