gollark: Curse Discord and being required by the ToS to only use their kind of awful clients!
gollark: Ugh, I just realised that Discord appears to have made the search mildly worse in the recent UI update.
gollark: Apparently, yes.
gollark: Nuclear waste is probably a problem, but less than climate change and the giant piles of spent lithium-ion batteries which would probably result from using batteries/solar.
gollark: Definitely nuclear power. It runs constantly unlike solar and whatnot, doesn't produce CO2, and uses fuel which we have enough of for a while and could use much more efficiently if there was much of an incentive to.
