Not quite Mr Fusion, but a small step towards it
2MJ in, 3MJ out.

From the article:
In terms of specifics, the lasers of the National Ignition Facility deposited 2.05 megajoules into their target in that experiment. Measurements of the energy released afterward indicate that the resulting fusion reactions set loose 3.15 megajoules, a factor of roughly 1.5. That's the highest output-to-input ratio yet achieved in a fusion experiment.
My stuff hits 10:1 if not better. How it does this, well, I have a few ideas.

Two: And you _wonder_ why I won't let you play with the really advanced stuff.

It's because you get tongue tied by my awesome. That's okay, you're still my favorite.

... and now you've become delusional as well. Lovely.

Are you hangry? You're grouchy when you're hangry. Want a sandwich?
