Chart performance
gollark: Somewhat relevant point: seriously just use nuclear it's energy dense enough.
gollark: You might have to contend with running out of usable energy in 10^lots years or something, I suppose.
gollark: The inevitable end point of "no growth/no new stuff/etc" is just "society runs through all available resources, can't get more, dies out" or maybe "natural disaster occurs and limited economic/technological resources don't allow dealing with it well".
