I'm upset that reality isn't as funny as the headline. Mihoyo apparently donated money to a university that way doing tokamak research. They don't own and operate it.
However, whales partially funding it is still true.

Thanks for the context, this was definitely a weird way to word this
-
Gamers actually helping save the world for once.

Capitalism would have a lot more clout if billionaires and companies used their money to fund solutions to humanity's problems, instead of using their money to create problems for humanity and then offering solutions for profit.

what the fuck is on their dev roadmap that requires fusion power

Skyrim 2025

I wonder how much of their operating costs are just the electric bill? Basically everyone is using a computer and even if you aren't doing LLMs, there's probably a dozen computers rendering something at any given time.
That and they probably have more money than they know what to do with, might as well fund something cool -

Hoyo is going to make genshin real, starting with the fake sky

not going to surprise me if MrBeast builds the first TOKAMAK in North America and brands it as Beast Power.
-
He builds it on the cheap and it doesn't work right, but everyone pretends like it's fine
This eventually leads to the future that Mutant League Football takes place in

Holy shit they didn't call it an "artificial sun"
-
For real. What is up with Western media refering to a fusion reactor as an "artificial sun" when the Chinese do it?
-
It sounds cool as hell, which I don't think was the intention Western media had.
-
Doc Ock also called his reactor an artificial sun so I guess it's to invoke a negative emotion although it just makes it sound even cooler.
-
They know their readers have no idea what the name refers to and probably are just reading the headline + first paragraph if anything past that.
-
It’s not just western media. Official chinese media call it an artificial sun too. I suppose for chinese people, it’s just a cool sensationalized headline, but for westerners it’s scary sci-fi mr. Burns shit
-
Western reactors are called that too by the media I thought
-
-
The chinese text in the embeded video reads "artificial sun"

Excerpt from Xi Jingping Thought:
To seize the west’s productive capacity is not enough. Once we achieve that, we will then seize the western man’s semen, then we shall use it to fuel nuclear power and usher in a new age of communism.
Scary

A friend of mine has officially helped fund a nuclear reactor
I gotta step up my game I guess

The $5 a month Welkin Moon pass seems like a bargain
