If we arrest folks for that. There would be no politicians.........
Actually never mind.

No idea was not me but auto added.
Spent £280 for 800w for my small boat a year ago. Thinking it was cheap so grab quick. Now half that for the same panels.
Cold fusion is a different and entirely mythical idea.
And step was the first successful positive output from a fusion (hot they run a 1pp to 150million c).
The money went on the design stage of a full size reactor. As expected and exactly as the original plan in 2022 indicated. And as the article admits. They just seem to think designing the first ever of a tech should be cheep. Rather then requiring loads of uniquely skilled and well paid researchers.
The register is missing important understanding. Early 1950 small scale fission reactors also had negative true input to output. They only produced a true positive result at full scale. But the maths proved that scale.
The maths of the NIF STEP reactore are the same.
There is a reason SMR fission reactors are only now starting to be built. Profitable ones were impossible until the 90.
Solar is still worth it. More so at current prices.
Fusion or fission is the cleanest safest way to match demand when wind or sun do not. At least in a nation we're we lack the space to build gravity fed storage.
Yep but they are enforcing the standards they have. So it's more not wanting to then failing.
We are failing to enforce. The US has now requirement to meet UK standards. We have the requirement to ban companies that don't.
Worth noting that UK costoms allowed the import of sweets made with illegal in the UK ingredients for years.
As bad as US food standards are. This is a huge failure of UK standards enforcement. Not a US one.
Sorry no. France has proven the case for nuclear as a business many times over.
And for all the benefits of renewable. It has one huge disadvantage. We cannot control availability. So either storage (takes more space then the UK has. Or harmful materials for battery's. Or some form of power plant that can be turned on or of with demand.
Nuclear is by far the cleanest that meets that goal. Until STEP is proven at large scale. (We are now building a full size fusion plant so post 2040 that looks likely).
It really is the best option.
No need to be more right then they promised.
But democracy requires them not to go more left either.
This whole win the election by lying to the public sounds very Tory.
Liz Kendall makes nebulas pledges to protect the most vonersble. With no actual details on how that is measured.
Meaning it is totally valueless. And just more blaming the disabled for all governments issues.
As opposed to surviving with only a slight limp and blood from wounds that stopped bleeding almost immediately
Honestly yes. But if you are correct you will know pretty soon.
And that is why it is so unlikely. Anyone who has any flying experience will know. If you miss an international flight it is very much recorded. This has been the case since lockerbee sp? And more stringent since 911.
Crash investigators will know within hours exactly who did or did not board the flight. And will announce it in a few days once they have made reasonable attempts to contact the families. So if he is faking. The newspapers will know soon.
Adding that to he had family on the flight. And is not seriously injured. Most of the blood on his cloths can come from rubbing scratches. So yes fast healing to the point you cannot tell. Very possible within an hour or 2.
There are unconfirmed rummers saying he opened jumped from the loading door just before the aircraft hit.
Not only is this very possible. But given the closed doors are structural on such aircraft. And would have remained open during the crash. Will show up notably in the investigation. So again will likely be confirmed in days.
Delays will come because while this is an India investigation. The UK and maybe other nations will be keen to help with the investigation. So some negotiating and sharing of expertise will happen.
STEP is a fusion method not the organisation.
And the money was spent on designing a full scale reactor that uses that method. The register seems to think paying loads of researchers and professers to design the first ever of a new design is free. When in reality it takes huge amounts of computing power and in this case new AI systems to develop the algorithms to magnetically control.
A man made fucking star at 150million c.
Yes such design is expensive. Even when it has been done on a much much smaller scale. How much inflation adjusted do you think the first fission full scale power station cost to design.
The register is being dumb. Not to mention the 2.5b has been approved because the designers achieved exactly what the promised for 220m under budget.
