It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

The impression I got is that there is interest and funding it's just very difficult
Well yes, the current issue is that the systems were designed way ahead of the computational power to assess how the plasma would behave in such conditions so dealing with fluid instabilities that arises from the most microscopic of target asymmetriea occupies the bulk of their time.
If they had another 4 billion dollars to build the system entirely from scratch I actually think they could get fusion based on what they know now. But they don't and it works for weapons complex integration with is in the end what the DOE cares about so yeah
