I invest it in the next stupid crypto fas and either lose $15 or become a millionaire.

Is this an American thing? I’ve never heard of a foundation leak before.

I literally dont understand keyboard hobbyists, like at this point youre just being different for the sake of being different.

They sent one to my deleted account that was literally called GDPR_Violation lol

I like the way he’s looking at the corpse of his wife like “welp”

Yeah as much as I hate shorts or reels in theory it’s so easy to get sucked in to scrolling for hours. I had to delete instsgram and install an extension that blocks shorts because of it

Small modular reactors. It’s an unproven technology that tech bros love to talk about like its magic and going to fix everything.

The whole base load situation is largely over hyped, as a diverse and slightly overbuilt network of renewable would compensate for fluctuations with minimal storage needed. Iirc you would just need 118% capacity with a 2 hour storage buffer to achieve stability rates on par with a traditional grid. And nuclears small footprint actually hinders it when filling a base load requirement, as nuclear provides a lot of power at a single location, but if you want to base load a national grid you want a little power at lots of locations. (Which can be argued that SMRs will fill that role, but that’s a whole other argument)

Scotland has been meeting pretty much its entire energy demand with renewables for a good while now, because there are options other than solar, primarily wind

It’s really not even AN answer. It’s so expensive to build them, requires hoards of highly specialised people to build and operate, takes decades to build all the while were relying on fossil fuels still until it can generate power, has a bigger carbon impact than renewables due to massive amounts of concrete used in building decommission and waste storage, is more expensive per mw, and while on average safer than most types of power plant, if something unexpected happens shit goes extremely bad.

It just has way way way too many downsides compared to wind or solar or basically any other renewable to the point its just not really worth pursuing.

Yes diversification is important too. But that still doesn’t mean nuclear is worth it.

You can look up the costs of nuclear in a country like France which is easily the most consistent builder of nuclear in the west and its not much better.

Yes, like wind. Which is also much cheaper and cleaner than nuclear.

Cool, so you’re either going to have to completely get rid of all the nimbys and people that don’t understand nuclear, then build a massive population of qualified workers to build them and staff them and then fund them in the hundreds of billions for at least 2 decades to build up the knowledge base required to be able to build them quickly and efficiently.

Or accept the reality that nuclear is dead in the water.

And this shows exactly why investing in nuclear is not the answer every tech bro thinks it is. Its far cheaper to built renewable and more importantly far far far quicker.

Honestly as a Brit I find this highly offensive to us and I’m really just sick and tired of the constant disrespect we get on the internet all the time. It’s a “rubbish patch” not a “garbage patch” ffs.

Wait did you start skateboarding in your 30s and skate a vert ramp within a couple years?
