A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.

Rules
This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
Get lost with your expensive nuclear energy. Renewables produce MUCH cheaper energy.
But for a stable network you need to account for times with no sun and no wind.
If we had a stable and international network, there would be not a time without sun or wind.
Tell me, are the room temperature superconductors with us in this room now?
Building out capacity to transport a massive amount of energy over thousands of kilometers isn't really that great either. Also, when it comes to night this is kinda not possible to avoid
You realise that the sun never goes away right? Half of the earth is illuminated 24/7
But half the earth is in darkness at once? You want to really transport solar energy across half the earth at mass?
I mean we do transport phone and internet signal all a roundthen world via big cables under the ocean already. That's non an impossible challenge.
