    People have opposed solar panels here? When? puzzled

      I remember a few users who were so pro-nuclear they were anti-everything else, but they were chased off

        A few glowing rocks that heat water / sodium vs. a completely natural, self-sustaining, highly exothermic, possibly divine(?) sphere of extreme magnitude

          I will say that the advances China has made in Fusion technology will basically put the power of the sun in our hands, but I also think solar panels are cool and work well

          Need a mixed approach here

            I think the final form of the grid is something like wind/solar primary generation with nuclear backup and hydro in areas where you need the dam anyway for flood control, and a lot of extra energy being generated to run carbon capture that pumps co2 back underground, but it’ll be a long time before any electrical grid on earth looks anything like that.

            Fusion will still be way too expensive for most applications

          The glowing rocks are also natural and exothermic, and both will self sustain for long after we are dead (possibly of radiation poisoning)

      Wish i could remember exactly but it was a Hexbear user arguing there isn’t enough land on earth to generate enough solar power

        That’s a hell of a take
