It turns out, bladeless wind power is shaped like a phallus.
Gigantic windfarms lining hills and coastlines around the world have become commonplace, but there might be another way — a bladeless way — to harness the wind, according to a green energy company that claims to have reinvented wind power by removing turbine towers, blades, and the wind itself.
The startup's bladeless turbines are roughly 10 ft tall, and take the shape of a curve-topped cylinder affixed vertically with an elastic rod. While uninformed eyes may see wiggling motion in the giant cylindrical object, it's actually designed to oscillate inside of a wind range — generating electricity from the vibration.
on the website. One comment intimating that people might find a similar device in a mother's dresser drawer amassed 20,000 positive ratings from Reddit users."Our technology has different characteristics which can help to fill the gaps where traditional windfarms might not be appropriate," said Yáñez.

Black Hole Carnivals May Lead to Cosmic Crashes Seen by Gravitational-Wave DetectorsSince 2015, the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA Collaboration has detected about 85 pairs of black holes crashing into each other. We now know that Einstein was right: gravitational waves are generated by these systems as they inspiral around each other, distorting space-time with their colossal masses as they go.
