So, the insurance companies ALSO cave in to the fearmongering hippies? There is no true cost of nuclear accidents, only a propaganda effect? Dude, didn't know we had that much raw power.
Yep. I am pretty sure that wouldn't bother you. As long as you don't have to pay from your well-deserved earnings for the health care of any victims. After all, they showed poor judgement by letting themselves getting irradiated and need to be punished for that, right? Get that Cs to flavour your cornflakes, please - the invisible hand and supply side jesus will carry you safely through anything.
Hey, how about, to prove the safety and harmlessness of Cs radionuclides, you lace your breakfast cereal with it, preferably daily? Either you prove your point, or you rid us of your stupidity without ever having to admit that you are an idiot. Win-Win for you, ain't it?
Well, the question arises - where the fuck did the 6 tons water per hour go that they pumped lately if the containment only has minor cracks AND the fuel is not covered by water? Carried away by magic unicorns?
I agree, but I'd like to elaborate a bit - the point of synthesizers is actually to make synthetic sounds, sounds that are not confined by the physical configuration of a particular instrument. That's where it gets interesting. Synthpiano and drums are fine, sure, if you don't want to lug a goddamn piano to your gigs, but the real power of synths is to get out of the realm of physical limitations to your instruments.
Ah, yes, a design the beauty of which is that it only exists on paper, so we didn't have a chance to discover the exciting new failure modes no one had thought about....
Yep. And that wind turbine coming loose will stay in the air for a couple of decades, whirling around hither and thither, no one will be save, so we will need at least a 20 km exclusion radius around that windfarm. It's not about risk, it's about risk times consequences. And THAT is the argument against nuclear.
Nope, not because we import from france now, but rather because those 7 plants were pure export overhead before. Cash cows for the industry, no benefit for us, but with a perfectly socialized risk. That's the reality. As to the cost - the true cost of french electricity is hidden in the nuclear subsidies. Paid by taxes, not by the power bill.
Aye, I am all for it. Especially remove the arbitrary regulations regarding liability and let the power companies fully insure their reactors themselves. Wait, what? No insurance company would be willing to do that? Score one for the free market!
A large fraction of crude is heavy and useless. You have to crack this stuff to get useful light distillates. A lot of oil fields which produced mostly light crude have run way past their peak, so more and more heavy and sour crude has to be refined, making cracking and other refinement steps besides pure distillation increasingly important.
If you dig that hole you are in any deeper, you might hit gas yourself. They compared it to water distant from fracking sites, but in similar geological formations.
Well, you have zero prove nor any evidence that his sex life has anything to do with his illness. But, you immediately latched onto his fucking around. Naturally, it MUST be sex, because you are a puritan hypocrite. Go fuck Jesus, or whatever you guys do to get off.
The strategy stockpile was 2He, which is considerably harder to fuse. The stockpile was not for fusion applications, but rather for use in cryogenics, as lifting gas and such.
Oh my, the bitch is even more morally repugnant than I thought. It's pretty much easy to understand what she wrote - the constant butthurt wining of a priviledged asshole over the loss of her servants in the russian revolution. You don't need to caricature Rand - that's like caricaturing an amoeba to point out that it is slimy. And don't you dare talk about "intellectual dishonesty" in the context of Rand critique. Rand never had any idea what either of those terms actually means.
When Randroids speak of the "freedom to choose when to behave altruistically", it is pretty much implied that they don't really plan to make that choice, ever. What could be more fun that watching your fellow man rot in the gutter, after all.

The sensors were fucked up - as I read this, they just now managed to recalibrate them.

Holy false dichotomy, batman!

Usually the industry doesn't need to hire a bunch of PR guys, because it has enough useful idiots like you.

The slashdot hivemind likes xkcd. Munroe ceased to be funny or insightful years ago. Dead stick figures walking. It's been crap for ages.
That's what you get when you let the holy free market rule a field where profit should be of secondary concern.
Enjoying your moralistic self-righteousness much?
Either you are sadly misinformed or tragically stupid.
The most likely option is missing. He is deliberately lying to further his ME! ME! ME! AND FUCK THE REST - agenda.
Indeed. Brainfart. Never post before your first coffee. Thanks for the correction.

Around here, we call that rationalization. I am aware that you need a pretty strong dose of it to justify rejecting civilization.
The truth is seldom welcome. Did I touch a nerve there?
