All renewable energy is fusion energy with a really round about way of collecting it
(sh.itjust.works)
A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The most popular seem to be lighthearted, clever little truths, hidden in daily life.
Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts: 1
If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.
Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report the message goes away and you never worry about it.
Maybe tidal energy would also be an exception? It's from the motion of the moon, which is the result of ancient planetary collisions?
Ooh, yeah. Didn't even think of tidal energy. I don't think we get any significant amounts from it currently, but it's being actively developed.
I guess if we want to get super pedantic about it, it would also be fusion-assisted since without the sun's energy keeping the oceans in a liquid state, it would be frozen and unable to generate any power.
