gollark: New nuclear technology would be safer. It just isn't actually deployed anywhere. The waste isn't a significant issue and I don't think it contributes much to costs.
gollark: Nuclear has been shown to actually work in the past but then got costlier and costlier for ??? reasons.
gollark: Huh, that's more than I thought. But not very much compared to the big centralised ones.
gollark: (At least a lot of it as far as I can tell)
gollark: But it would probably be necessary to reduce the elegance somewhat to implement optimisations for the ridiculous volume of data stuff has to deal with (also a flaw of Matrix in my opinion, since everything needs all room history, or something like that).
