Always was unlikely, but can you summarize what's new here?
Veeky Forums is notorious for click-bait headlines which aren't backed up. "String Theory is Dead" was no more than a day or two ago and the article said no such thing.

The concept of EM Drive has attracted much attention and groups of work have been conducted to prove or verify it, of which the published experimental outcome is criticized in great details while the theoretical foundation has not been discussed. The present essay investigates on the theoretical derivations of the net thrust in the EM drive and reveals the self-contradiction arising at the very start, when the law of conservation of momentum was utilized and opposed simultaneously.

If it were that easy, we wouldn't have waited two years.

Some navy related lab is going to try and recreate the results from the eagleworks tests. Quick glance at the presentation and the equipment is decent enough to put the thing to rest. Until then let the memes flow.

This is old as fuck news. Everyone knows Shawyer's explanation was bullshit.

NEWTON IS FUCKING KING!!!

Verification by an independent group is good whether or not it confirms Eagleworks.
Shawyer's "explanation" violates energy conservation, momentum conservation, and the Equivalence principle. He's said, in the same paper, that thrust falls off as the object accelerates and that power is not needed (save for losses) to simply hover at a given height.
Both are ridiculous. "Thrust falls off after a period of acceleration" means "after the velocity has changed and KE has accumulated." Velocity and KE relative to what? To the motion of the device when it was turned on? If so, turn it off for a second and start fresh. Otherwise, he's suggesting Aether or an absolute state of rest.
My BS detector went off in one of his early paragraphs. I'd be interested in reading the article, but the theoretical foundations have been questioned since Day One.
