As opposed to lignite mining where whole villages get replaced by large holes in the ground....

All plants that are kept in operation have every single component in need of replacement replaced well in advance, so none of the European plants is old in any way a car could be considered old.

Do you have a reference for the Fukushima cleanup talk? Any documents, interviews? France chose to switch off some reactors just because one had shown corrosion on a safety tube that is not used in normal operations, has about 0.1% chance

I have it from someone who actually ran finite elements calculations on this very thing, that you can crash a plane on a French plant all you want, it won't leak. You'd need a well placed JDAM, and even then the damage would be qu

You are writing something that is not true: in no way can a modern plant cause a large evacuation. Can you explain with an example what you mean? The UNSCEAR has the documentation you need to read in order to graduate from being a green-ide

Fukushima was not Chernobyl: it killed nobody, polluted very little. Much less than a coal plant does in any case, even in terms of radioactive particles put up in the air ..

Massive "citation needed" on this. The German Energiwende is a total catastrophe, the story about lack of water for plants is a tall tale. Here's a start: https://jancovici.com/en/energy-transition/s

Well members of the military are not allowed to roam about freely with concealed weapons, so yes obviously the militia has to be held to an higher standard!

Totally agree. Anyone who wants to carry should by virtue of the 2nd amendment, commit to at least one weekly all-day all-night training in the militia training center of their state. This is how I understand the meaning of the amendment. A

Punishment is an essential element of justice. How can there be justice without punishment for the crimes committed. Or do you propose the dead will have their life rehabilitated somehow?

This post of yours Zetice is absolutely hilarious. You are actually writing that an office worker, able to string along proper prose, with a wife who is also working, should consider themselves too poor to consider having children? What soc

You write: "until the world runs out of Ukranians". This is very offensive, as it erases the process by which some Ukrainians are dying. Anyways, back to basics: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_R

Can you detail what you mean by "US-instigated provocation". As far as I understand the only provocation is helping show with Ukraine that ethnic/cultural Rus people can live and indeed prosper in a democratic society, so the

Any end of the war that shows aggression pays off dividends means the start of many other aggressions elsewhere, a new world order of might-makes-right that can only stabilise again once everyone is armed with nukes.

Yep. This article is clearly low-effort. The very few examples are like this one: """imagine you inherited a slow-performing code base written in Python. Your IDE suggests it be translated to Rust. You click yes and redeploy,

I therefore propose "hostage capitalism". What do you think? Maybe "captured capitalism"?

The IPCC sadly had to accommodate economists, and they went one to do what economists do. However they got cordoned off in a separate section. Of course economic growth of Pakistan has been severely impacted by the floods they recently got,

NFT are just lame collectibles. A security has to secure ownership of something tangible that's not just its own definition of value or uniqueness.

The only problem of course is the amount at play: barely more than one billion dollars as damage for Dominion, when the only thing that will teach Ruppert his lesson is to set a multiplier of about one hundred and make this the punitive dam
