I mean... yeah this clearly sucks ass, but as a silver lining, maybe it'll rebuild interest in nuclear.

[–] jol@discuss.tchncs.de 14 points 2 months ago (2 children)

I don't want old ass nuclear power plants. I don't want new power plants in 25 years either. I want a solar panel on every single rooftop, and diversified municipal energy storage (batteries, molten salt, geothermal, etc).

Old ass nuclear plants work well, and they are already built. I also want solar panels on every house, and micro turbines in every yard. How about we work with what we already know is clean and expand with new technology.

I don't think micro turbines are a viable solution. If you're talking about generators that attach to your downspouts to catch the rainwater and use its falling energy to spin itself, they take several times their own operational life expectancy to return the energy cost of creating them in the first place.

I was thinking more small vertical wind turbines. They also aren't the most efficient, but any little bit is going to help.

Fission isn't clean. It's dirty tech that is necessary because humans are fucking awful at planning for the future on a societal level and a best case scenario of turning some deserts into a radioactive waste hellscape is better than killing all complex life on Earth.

So which oil company pays you? Exxon paid greenpeace to spout this nonsense 50 years ago

Illiterate and guilty of the same sins you doubtless bitch about boomers committing.

It is new... They aren't the original ones that were decommissioned...

If they want to run AI in a responsible manner I can't say that I really have any solid complaints. I prefer if they don't use it to train my entire personality into a model but it is what it is
