If I'm just aching this can't go on
I came from chasing dreams to feel alone
There must be changes, miss to feel strong
I really need lifе to touch me

Re: More fun with levitating superconductors
The future is now.

Actually, watching it again, this looks kind of fake. The nitrogen looks rendered.

EDIT: Looking at the comments, it appears I'm not the only one who feels this way.

Re: More fun with levitating superconductors
no reason why this wouldn't work though. ive seem videos of lab demonstrations making levitating objects follow magnetic tracks. only reason they would need to fake it is if they needed a teaser video to drum up investors to pay for development, if they intended to market the thing as a toy. giving children access to liquid nitrogen seems like a bad idea though.
I can no longer sit back and allow communist infiltration, communist indoctrination, communist subversion, and the international communist conspiracy to sap and impurify all of our precious bodily fluids.

Guys, you're missing the point.
