"Science fiction used to be a wild, fantastical guess about a distant future. Today? It’s basically just a product roadmap for technology companies.

@craigoverend IDK how accidental it was.
I used to love scifi (pre-2000s) but its clear that most scifi authors from any era loathe renewable energy. The only exception to this is when the renewable tech becomes this ultra-macho project... surround the home star with a Dyson sphere to completely dominate it.
