Biography

Remixes
gollark: Copy in a known-good reactor constantly to avert meltdown issues, replace all cooling with moderators and cells packed as densely as possible, figure out how to automate all components from raw resources, feed most power-producing fuel, repeat.
gollark: Oh yeah, copy in a known-good reactor constantly.
gollark: Powered by a single electrolytic separator!
gollark: With enough, I don't know, formation planes and an internal ME network, or turtles or something, self-repairing repeatedly-meltdowning reactors could become the power source of the future.
gollark: Oh, cool unrelated thing, my double-fusion system in a compact machine, recently upgraded to 3.
