Hey, you may need a break! We don't need to write the fanfic for the other side, that's usually a sign of burnout.

You should rest up then get back to it when you can be less defeatist. We need you.

Are you planning to stay home if she gets a big enough lead?

No?

WILL YOU PEOPLE PLEASE STOP SPOUTING THIS BULLSHIT? If the polls are good, great, then we can make it a landslide. Stop treating Harris supporters like idiots.

Fuck the businesspeople trying to run all our conpanies into the ground.

The market found the best solution: renewables.

You are the one here arguing we should be doing nuclear. You are the person here with an agenda.

You don't have to convince me, if you think it's such a great power source with such low costs you should pitch some investors.

I would think you would be the one trying to understand why nuclear plants aren't being built if their costs are lower and benefits are higher. 🤷‍♂️

Show me the line items for long term handling of the waste, please. I am curious how much they allocated.

[–] andyburke@fedia.io -1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

How long does that waste need to be safely stored and what are the projected costs there? How do they compare to solar that you can deploy today?

We are not running out of space to put power generation, but we definitely need to worry about costs.

Now do the math on the cost of that uranium and the facility you need to turn it into power compared to the cost of the solar.

If you think cost isn't the primary factor in all energy production ... 🤷‍♂️

Edit: not to mention all the essentially free developed space we already have in spades to deploy solar to: rooftops.
