Geothermal is a really excellent power source. Would be better if we had the new version though that let you place pipes diagonally, instead of having them snap to the grid.
Do we really have to link to paywalled sites?
It’s a bot that just harvests posts from reddit and reposts them here after the reddit post has reached a pre-set popularity threshold.
Ideally, the bot would automatically generate an archive link to the content so that there’s no paywall to read the article.

@autotldr@lemmings.world in my dm pls?
I’m sorry, I don’t know how to handle links for that site. You may contact my maintainer, @rikudou@lemmings.world, if you wish to add it to supported sites!
I’m all for geothermal energy, but come on, geothermal energy is related to the mantal being close to the surface or fault line activity… And people want to do a fracking like thing? Am I the only one that sees the problem?
I’ve read the Broken Earth trilogy by N.K. Jemisin. First you start out getting geothermal power, and the next thing you know we’ve yeeted the moon and the planet is trying to kill us. Just you wait.
(But seriously read that trilogy if you haven’t and you like SciFi/Fantasty, it’s fantastic. First book is The Fifth Season.)
