gollark: I meant fusion reactors, and AE2 can do it.
gollark: Also, how do you get certain fluids out of the reactor?
gollark: Ah. There definitely isn't.
gollark: I'm going to replace it with D-D, D-T and D-He3, assuming there's actually any way to make the amount of fuel balance out.
gollark: This explains the terrible power output of my fusion reactor. H-H isn't a good reaction.
