@PSodhan 100% For The Benefit of Humanity! (Of course it goes without saying that we will also need a for-profit subsidiary in which investors and early employees will be duly and lucratively compensated.)

Folks! Personal Perpetual Motion™ is close!

I am certain I can ship by mid-2027!

Already I have designed a prototype that works pretty well — only needing external fuel occasionally — and I feel confident in saying that this prototype is clearly the worst perpetual motion

The statement is part of a lighthearted and humorous exchange about the concept of perpetual motion, which is a scientific impossibility. The tone is playful and sarcastic, with a focus on the unrealistic nature of the claims being made. It does not engage substantively with public issues or contribute to civic dialogue.
