minus-squaremalloc@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up12arrow-down2·3 years agoExisting energy conglomerates (ie, oil and gas) probably send their army of lobbyists around the world to spread FUD about fusion. Thus minimal funding. 🪦
minus-squareTheWoozy@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1arrow-down1·3 years agoNot while fusion is 30 years away. They’ll wait until it’s closer to 2 years.
minus-squareAA5B@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·3 years agoMaybe. We all (here) wish fusion power was funded better and understand how useful it could be for humanity if we can make it happen, but …. yesterday I read about the Stellerator using 3D printed parts in this thread, someone commented on using ai to drive containment I’m sure teams must be using the latest materials. It’s quite possible that we would have always needed the rest of the world to catch up
