Of course this does not refer to situations in which a generally uncommon acronym is well known. :P

The point of this meme is me/us as the mere users of a website. Not from a hosting or administration perspective.

There is no gatekeeping, just a statement of a preference, as a user.

Buddy, this is a simple joke.

Nothing more.

The additional info is not the issue, that I have with this comment, and is instead greatly appreciated. But the way it is communicated is also somewhat rude.

 

In my opinion genuine wikis provide a much nicer user experience, than Fandom wikis.

My the actual intention of this joke, was to point out, that even if fusion will make again use of boiling water, we already have more "suffisticated" methods to generate electricity (like e.g. solar cells via the photovoltaic effect), that make not use of the great equalizer make wheel spin fast.

But based on many comments here (and yours is not one of them), this failed.

"In economics, the Jevons paradox occurs when technological advancements make a resource more efficient to use (thereby reducing the amount needed for a single application); however, as the cost of using the resource drops, [...] this results in overall demand increasing, causing total resource consumption to rise."

Behold, Approximate True Colour Neptune

Actually not that blue, compared to Earth.

 

Mein Nacken schmerzt, nachdem ich in der Bibliothek war, vom ganzen Hals hin-und-her schwingen.

Wenn Gott gewollt hätte, dass uns unbegrenzt saubere Energie zur Verfügung stünde, hätte er uns einen Fusionsreaktor an den Himmel platziert.

P.S. Dies ist keine Kritik an der Existenz von pessimistischen Politik-Maimais, sondern lediglich eine Bekundung der Tatsache, dass ich deutlich mehr Freude aus optimistischen gewinnen kann.
