I love nuclear power and know a lot about operating them, however: 1) It's expensive. Very very expensive. 2) It's dangerous when not operated properly, and I don't trust commercial interests operating hundreds of these due t

Exactly, we’re being downvoted by fans of tyrants.

When is it tyranny? When he send the military into 19 states under federal control? Or does it have to be when he’s actually ordering the killings of his opponents?

I bought all my software as a kid at egghead! They treated me like any other customer, whether I asked for a video game or a copy of windows NT server. I miss shopping at stores for electronics, it’s not the same browsing online.

Nuclear was never an option 1) cost is too high compared to other options 2) corpos can’t be trusted to run it safely I love nuclear tech but it’s not commercializable anymore. I’ll happily change my opinion once a nuclear company solves th

Because we have an expectation for more space. Pretty simple, no one wants to go backwards to when we lived in single room tenements with a wife pumping out babies for a decade in a row. Also, no one can afford a four bedroom home with twel

Nice assertions, but where’s the content of your post? What’s your opinion here based on those two things? Those are just two statements, but do you believe things are different now than historically or are you arguing it’s the same as it e

Not even doing it from scratch is the hard thing, the hard thing is getting the experience to know how to fit stuff together the best way to achieve your design and utilitarian goals, what wood to use, etc. The hard thing isn’t building the

I mean, a table is as hard as you make it. I work with rough construction lumber, and make nice finished goods, my point was that people still do stuff that isn’t worth their time financially.

Beam has been out for a while, they have decent tire models already, this is new research. I’m sure you’ve driven it, so you’d know that it’s not the best but it’s no slouch.

People have built tables but I still build tables myself. Not as many people will use them as people who use IKEA tables, but that’s okay, I’m still going to build them.

Tire simulations vary wildly amongst car sims. There certainly are many approaches to modeling tires, and many variables that can affect it. Beam is pretty good, I think they’re trying new stuff and it’s paying off.

The value of the stock is the value of the corporation, right? What’s the value of it if you don’t have humans to man the factory? The only reason Capital has capital is because they’re hoarding it since the beginning of human economics. If

companies aren't baseball cards, their growth is tied directly to work that the humans in the company do, and they sure are paid for it, but if they were paid a fair share of the company's profits then that increase in share price

Value can be created from nothing, I am sure you can give an example or two, but in general nothing large and valuable is created without the effort of a lot of people together, relying on the societal systems that are funded by taxes. I su

Ok now find their hidden assets and take them. Criminals shouldn’t be allowed to get away with crime right? These are some of the worst, IMO, as they rose on our backs and then turned around and stole the fair share they owed to society via

This didn’t work out, I crashed my PC somehow trying it with RFactor2 and AC a few times. Sorry to everyone who was curious like me, but in going to continue trying in the future.

If you know how to mirror a display in Windows 11 I can try it in my sim rig and see if it works. I actually thought about doing that the other day for some reason, I think it would work.

Nah it’s really easy to understand Juneteenth if you just google it. Let’s not argue on the fringes of the subject and claim it applies here. Ignorant people always have excuses for why it’s too hard to become educated on a simple subject.
