Comrade, here vee haff serious Marxmas (
Weihnachten), and there you give me a
Lachkrampf (zhe German variant of ROFLMAO).
I have a few words ‒ just a few words ‒ to contribute.
But now ‒ progressing to Marxmas.
I vill be back :

Other time, other place, I actually had a tech-vision ‒ for green, sustainable, Global Communist electrification.
And, mostest important ‒ it was a
nauchnaya vision, i. e. based on science, here: 99% consensual Newtono-Einsteinism.
What : Capturing Solar Power (SOP) 24/7/365, by a gigantic MOVABLE SOP-complex (SOPCO) of giga-tera receptacle apparata.
How : SOPCO would simply track the movement of Sun (to have it
always perpendicularly over the center of SOPCO), while moving on Global SOPCO-rails, or even levitating.
That is : seen from the Sun, SOPCO is fixed (while our Globe rotates madly underneath). And seen from Earth, SOPCO rattles ruthlessly around our planet. Relativity, 200%.
Bonus : SOPCO on the (sustained!) move generates a colossal air-turbulence. So, it's only natural to load on the SOPCO-platform also arrays of wind-turbines, reaching up into the stratosphere.
Now : Transmission of all that electricity, generated on the run, to the Global Community ‒
how? Duh, simple : by telepatelectrism. A combination of telepathy and electricity conduction. Think of a global net of talented telepath-electricians (1 per acre), transmitting electro-streams via telepathy into metropoles and all corners of our world.
When I think of all those jobs jobs jobs... shock troops for SOPCO construction, battalions for maintenance, armies of telepatelectrixperts... (It sometimes seems like there will be nobody to actually use all that electricity ‒ all humans busy, round the clock, with SOPCO operation ; but
that's not the point ‒ 24/7/365 production is the point!)
My green-tinged friends (alias: near all my friends), when I rolled out my vision, they made those ominuous gestures, using a troika consisting of a forefinger + forehead + knock, knock, ...
So, somewhat concerned (it's Germany here, Deep Green) to land in a
sharashka (so familiar to our Comrade Chief Designer) or, Marx forbid, even a
psikhushka, I kept all that since then under wraps.
Sure, SOPCO lacks the
stunning simplicity of Red Square's rope-around-rotating-axis-
cum-Ilyich.
But then ‒ there is simplicity, yet there is also Rube Goldberg, korrekt?
(and long-term, simplicity of course rules! viva
Ockham!)
