What are the highlights of Coffee with Scott Adams on New Year's Eve?

Scott Adams 0:47
Good morning, everybody, and welcome to the highlight of human civilization. It's called Coffee with Scott Adams. It's the end of the year show, the best thing that ever happened to you, but... If you'd like to take this experience up to levels that nobody can even understand with their tiny, shiny human brains, all you need for that is a cup or mug or a glass, a tank or chalice, a stein, a canteen jug or flask, a vessel of any kind. Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee. Join me now for the unparalleled pleasure, the dopamine hit of the day, the thing that makes everything better. It's called the simultaneous sip, and it happens now. Oh, my God, that was good. Well, we made it. We made it to the end of the year. Congratulations, everybody. You did it again. Now, we didn't all make it. I know some of you had some deep losses this year.
Scott Adams 1:53
But at least the rest of us made it for now. Well, let me tell you the news. So China is building what's been called the Solar Great Wall. So it's a gigantic wall of solar, and they're going to be done by 2030, and it's going to power the entire city of Beijing, they think. That's kind of awesome. How long would it have to be? Well, 250 miles long. It's going to be three miles wide.

What is the significance of China's Solar Great Wall?

Scott Adams 2:24
and stretched for 250 miles across the desert. And I said to myself, I know where we could put a giant solar wall. I've got an idea. Yeah, on our border. Remember when it was the beginning of the first Trump administration, and maybe even before he was elected, and we were coming up with all these ideas for how to build a cool wall on the southern border. And we had all these ideas like, what if you put solar panels all across it and you make it an energy plus? Well, China's doing it. But it looks like it's not a regular wall because it's three miles wide. So it's a solar wall. Anyway. Meanwhile, Good News Networks and Andy Corbley's writing that there has been invented a way to pull water and a fog.
Scott Adams 3:28
So apparently there are places that have fog, but not enough water. It doesn't rain enough, but they get some fog. And now they have these little metal needle things that are like mimicking pine needles that don't require any electricity. You just set it up in the fog and it captures the fog water and drains it down into a pail or something. That's kind of cool.

How does relationship status affect men's sexual functioning?

Scott Adams 3:51
an actual no-energy-needed water-capturing machine. That's a first. No energy needed. According to SciPost, Eric Nolan is writing that men in relationships have better sexual functioning regardless of sexual orientation. So the study says that men who are in relationships... have better sexual functioning. What do you think I'm going to say about that? Do you know me well enough to know exactly what I'm going to say? Yes, you do. Yes, you do. It's backward science. Let me ask you, who is more likely to be in a relationship in the first place? Probably people who are pretty good at sex because their partner says, well, I could certainly live with more of that. What about people who have bad sexual function?
Scott Adams 4:48
Does their partner say, hmm, I'd like to do that for the rest of my life? No, it's backwards. It is not that the relationship is improving your sexual performance. Your sexual performance has improved your relationship. Backwards science. You should have asked me. I could have straightened that out. Well, over at X, X had a win that might have been not a win, but you decide. Was this a win or not a win? So Governor Newsom in California bragged on X that he had dramatically slowed and reduced the growth of homelessness. But a community note quickly jumped in and said, completely misleading because X Homelessness has been growing year after year since 2019. So let me say it again, but listen to the exact words.
