Well, you can apparently also use supercritical carbon dioxide.

That might be fun.

But you're basically still boiling something to make it spin a magnet.

Isn’t that dangerous? No-one really knows what magnets are.

Not sure if half-serious or not, but since I've read that a couple of times now, by that logic, we really don't know what anything is.

I thought it was a Trump reference, which I've seen before mostly in memes

It's better than water, since no one knows what happens when you get water on magnets.
