gollark: I'm trying to figure out how moderators work. I have no idea any more.
gollark: I don't think you can.
gollark: I'm on my phone now, so I can't.
gollark: I run a 10x10x10 actively cooled TBU oxide one and 9x9x9 passively cooled LEN-236 oxide one. 55kRF/t (or so) total.
gollark: It'd run hot and inefficiently. Also you want to start with something available directly from thorium or uranium.
