When I read the first two panels, I shook my head in disgust because they are so true. I wonder if the current generation will get to their deathbeds with a profound sadness realizing that they wasted their entire life not experiencing it in real time but through the lens of their handheld devices or if they will be too busy doing selfies of themselves dying.
Schlumberger used to have a fusion neutron generator which fit inside a one and three sixteenth inch diameter downhole tube in the seventies.It wasn’t energy efficient but made neutrons on demand A simple little thing with Tritium being accelerated and smashed into lithium, I think it was.Back in the fifties, they used plutonium. Nowhere near as safe to be around.They were used to detect hydrogen around the borehole.Worked through steel casing pipe.Sweet.
Clearly nor one of your brighter observations. Most of earning career followed from one course I took at the beginning of my senior year — the only computer course taught at the time where I attended. None the less, 52 years later I count the liberal arts part my education as the most valuable. And there is no part of my education that I consider worthless, so I don’t agree with Olongapojoe, except on the point of education being overpriced — but that is not the only factor leading to the enormous debt facing so many of today’s new grads.

Hey Trudeau, how’s about really nailing the Universities for saddling their grads with $100,000 debts, for useless liberal arts degrees?

He just doesn’t like the word “Liberal”. Thinks we are all out to take something from him. Usually, something we don’t want.

That’s the DEFINITION of a liberal arts degree. You just made the man’s point for him.
