Its supposed to be like 5c/shot.

I think the reason we're not seeing these being pushed harder is robotised flack turrets work pretty good at taking out cheap drones.

Yes, please, do search for the correct terms to find an article to argue your point, it very much helps your argument. If there was an link to an article in your first post, this thread would have been very different.

Do you think you could find our man an article about someone discussing Carter not being progressive enough at the time on south africa in some form of print media?

I love how culturally Bob Dole is boiled down to "is that the fruit guy" and this bit.

Don't get me wrong, I too want nuclear power, but we need to hit it hard enough and without outsourcing, and to do it long enough to build institutional knowledge and get costs down. I kinda want the Rolls Royce SMR to work out, but britain is crap at building anything.

Why so many still import from Russia

Isn't that US related trade restrictions? Also Kazakhstan supplies some 43% of the world supply of Uranium, followed by Canada at 14%.

the tech to enrich and process it

If you watch some of the early American nuclear projects it seems like its about as hard to work with as coal, and enrichment means spinning it. Its all known quantities.

Also while I'm here, the quanties of nuclear waste are so small compared to the literal mountains of flyash power plants make. And the french are really good at reprocessing it. I think we can do better than what the Americans did with their miniature nuclear reactor on Greenland (just flushed the toxic waste into a cavern drilled into the ice, along with all the poops).

Also, nobody ever seems to want to talk about the radioactive output of coal stations just burning coal with trace radioactive elements in it. Just straight up the stack and over the neighbourhood.

It was also fortunate that all it did was contaminate some towns and land forever uninhabitable.

I kinda understand the paranoia, I just wish I could hope that economies of scale would kick in after a while but we'll just not build another one for almost exactly the right amount of time for all the institutional knowledge to disappear.

I'm sure McKinsey are making a killing. All those risk assessments need 6k/day consultants.

a good learning example would be recreating his designs yourself in CAD and writing your own firmware, or rolling your own version of QMK or whatever its running
