Had to go all the way to pity for summer maruzensky but along the way I got mihono bourbon, gold city, two summer spe-chans, another biwa, and the alternate costume el condor pasa and grass wonder

Nuclear has massive fixed costs, is very limited in where it can be placed (since you need a Ton of water for it) and can't scale with demand

The problem is that housing is unaffordable so people can't afford garages to park their car in at night for recharge or vehicle to grid

My laptop I bought in 2019 has a 2070 max Q and even then it was a bit slow in games, and it's only a 1080p screen (144hz though)
