Techbros were pitching how we'd invent self replicating carbon capture nano machines in the future

That's so annoying about motorsports in recent years. Commentators are tasked by the race series owners to hype up that BS. Researching the technology is fine. Scientists may find ways to capture carbon at a better rate at acceptable energy cost but shouting that an inefficient combustion engine is somehow better for the environment than EV because "batteries bad, carbon capture great" is just stupid.
