Personnel

gollark: It's less interesting than the fission reactors - just put down some stuff in a circle and add a few coolers, no customization or whatever - and produces less.
gollark: Both, actually!
gollark: Hopefully the new version of NuclearCraft will make fusion less utterly disappointing.
gollark: I mean that there's been increased RAM use generally, not necessarily 1.13.
gollark: Also increased RAM use.
