Why won't fusion still be a worthwhile goal even if we do have abundant solar/wind?
Abundant and cheap are relative terms. Solar and wind could be abundant in a "powers everything we have now and for the foreseeable future of population growth" sense, but maybe not in a "gigantic power-hungry megaprojects which aren't remotely possible today" sense?

- moloch-hai 4y agoSolar needs nothing that can be run out of. Likewise, storage. There are plenty of lies repeated, about that and about missing "breakthroughs".
- courgette 4y agoNever heard about space and that sound outright silly. We do parking and we have space for that crap. The other was deeply ingrained in my understanding. That’s good news. I need to do my own research, like the crackpots are saying.
