>koła super deep borehole hit almost 200 Celsius
>drill a bunch of holes
>pour water into them
>water is vaporized instantly
>run through a steam turbine
>condense back into water
>recycle water back into the system
>literally free and infinite 0 emissions, environmentally neutral energy
Why the hell are we not doing this everywhere?
>uhhh actually digging holes is hard
So is building offshore oil rigs but we still do that. Not an argument

It will never happen. They will claim that it is impossible but really it's because they don't want us to know what they would find.

all of that claptrap about "i know whats at the center the planet" in your pic is predicated on the fact that the people who produce those ideas know full well that their idea can never be confirmed or denied or tested in any way because nobody will ever dig down that far.
so those pics are pseudoscience. scientific theories are testable

the vast majority of the people who post on this board are so uneducated and stupid that even freshman level basic shit like ideal gas law are beyond their comprehension.

Rocks do not conduct heat very well, you dump in water the water cools the rocks and the no more steam. It also costs more to produce than other forms of power like solar or oil. You could power the world by having people run in giant hamster wheels but that would cost more than just using something else.
