The Road to Perpetual Motion

With what? the pissmobile?


Of course not, the whole idea is demented and will never work. It was designed purely on the basis of the Lee-Tseung Lead Out Theory.

Lawrence really thinks this will work, he said so when I posted it as a joke.

no shit sherlock? you know what i am talking about, not larry's pissmobile, yours. this 'pissmobile' that you have been talking about in this thread. what's up with it? did you give up on replicating the hoax or what?

[hansvonlieven]

It's not a hoax,

I am still doing tests with the control mechanism. This is not as easy as it sounds, I said so from day one and the whole system relies on it.

I regret to say that an elegant workable solution has so far escaped me but I am still working on it within the limited time I can devote to the project.

it's not a hoax... sure, just like keely's hoaxes weren't a "heterogeneous cominglement of absurdities"   
i know you're busy with your bullying, that's why i bumped this thread, to get you back on track wasting your time with something productive

It's clear that such a contraption could never fly stably without a control system, and conservation laws require such a system to eject reaction mass. Nothing comes for free and momentum is conserved  Clearly the pilot and crew must be fitted with collection devices so that flatulant emissions may be collected and stored for use by the reaction control system. But there's no free lunch, so plenty of pork and beans must be continually supplied to the crew.
Otherwise it's just another pipe dream.

Hah! You can kiss that good old momentum conservation law goodbye! It doesn't hold water, momentum and energy conservation relies on each other, and all you need to do to brake them is to accelerate a wheel. There you go, the entire universe has been upset and everything will collapse.

Well not really, because the entire universe makes use of this aspect of physical reality, everything spins......

This could of course be discussed in a seperate tread, and hansvonlieven's idea still works, but it is a complicated setup.
