imagine I'm reading through all of your comments and posts for the next hour or so of my life. all of my thoughts are centered on you. what you think, how you articulate, your sense of humor, what memes you like, everything you've made public. it's creepy.

I'm glad for both of these things and neither necessarily reduces fossil fuel consumption
would be great to see a nuclear/renewable mix displace the king. i hope to see it while I'm here
article says they're SMRs which i don't know another example of them ever being deployed commercially. this is also pretty neat
I just bought a license just because
here's my Thursday:
- check cashing place
- cigarettes
- alcohol
- scratch off tickets
this lemmy gets it
did anyone at this climate conference commit to reducing fossil fuel consumption at all in any way?
i think a central barrier at the moment is fusion doesn't readily start a chain reaction like fission can. scientists are likely exploring the use of the yield of the fusion reaction to reload the reactor (kind of like an automatic firearm) and these techniques are far from mature in this setting.
PV is a simpler mechanism in every way and we've been studying it for more than 100 years. They're very different both technologically and maturity-wise
it's crazy that the US still leads the oil consumption charts. it's possible that'll never change if others don't sink money into the same infrastructure decisions the US did
for sure, nuclear is too expensive and money is non-renewable
