gollark: Fortunately the fusion reactors, when they do work, produce so much power that they can charge giant batteries, so we mostly just use those.
gollark: At the Unicode Consortium, which is better than heavpoot's W3C, we continuously run into fusion reactor failures, so I made more fusion reactors with a simpler system as a backup, but they failed too.
gollark: I'm actually on the same sever heavpoot is on right now and trying frantically to repotatonate the fusion reactor.
