They're not saying that nuclear power has the only impact. Just that since 1945, our overall environmental impact has increased dramatically- with China building 800 GW of coal plants being a perfect example. While our per capita impact in many ways has decreased, the huge increase in population has caused the aggregate impact to increase greatly.
Also, while Japan and France may be scaling back their nuclear power generation, the "anti-nuclear" Obama administration has given the final approval for 4 new reactors. They're the first new ones since the 70s.
The point is that John Boehner has had to approve of all legislation since January 2011. That completely destroys the "insightful" comment made by the parent post.
"The broken English looks deliberately bad and doesn't exhibit any of the classic comprehension mistakes you actually expect to see in "Konglish". i.e it reads to me like an English speaker pretending to be bad at writing English."
That's your "proof that NK couldn't possibly have hacked Sony"?
True professionals (unlike the government agencies in question) have come forward several times with what effectively amounts to proof that NK couldn't possibly have hacked Sony.
An official statement from the FBI isn't exactly the same as some anonymous blog.
You can doubt the FBI all you want, but I don't know of anyone else having access to the primary evidence involved.
And as the other reply alluded to, what would be the motive for anyone else besides North Korea? It would have to be a very psycho ex-employee to risk going to jail for the rest of their lives for no personal gain. The threat to bomb theaters showing the film doesn't fit the disgruntled employee theory at all.
Yep. Build nuclear power plants or shut the fuck up. I'm sick and tired of hearing "denier, denier, denier" from these people and then when solutions are proposed, they say "hell no, you can't do that".
Who are you talking to? Mr. Strawman?
The US is currently building 4 nuclear reactors. "Anti-Nuclear" Obama appointed a bunch of "anti-nuclear activists" to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. They have approved 4 reactor construction applications. For those keeping score, that would be 4 more approved applications than Ronald Reagan, George HW Bush, Bill Clinton, and George W. Bush's RCS did combined over the previous 28 years.
At the same time, France and Japan are shutting down reactors. One of the new French President's campaign promises was to scale back France's use of nuclear power.
I'd have to agree it's a sausage fest but I've seen zero indication it's for any reason beyond a lack of interest on the part of females.
Maybe if there were programs to get young girls interested in programming, like something involving the White House Christmas tree, we would see more participation as they get older.
Electric vehicle range is hugely affected by aerodynamic drag, particularly a highway speeds. What looks aerodynamic is surprisingly unrelated to the drag coefficient. So modern car designers do things to actually improve drag, which seem weird and ugly to you.
The Ferrari F40, a triumph of car design in the late 80s, has a drag coefficient of 0.34. The Koenigsegg CCX has a Cd of 0.30. A 2001 Toyota Camry has a Cd of 0.29. And my Nissan Leaf has a Cd of 0.28.
My most notably odd feature on the Leaf is the big bug eye headlights. At highway speeds, those headlights create a bubble of low pressure around the side view mirrors, significantly decreasing drag. I'm a function over form kind of guy, so I think it's awesome.
I wonder what kind of good could have been done, or how many lives could have been saved, with the thousands of dollars you've spent on a computer, a car, and a phone that you really don't need.
Remember when the Republicans in Congress fought against the creation of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau? This is why.
The CFPB was actually proposed by Elizabeth Warren, then still at Harvard. She was Obama's first choice for its Director, but her appointment was blocked.
Iran is free, as a sovereign nation, to respond to Stuxnet in any way they see fit. But they know that escalating the situation will probably go poorly for them.
That was my first reaction. But the official Uber twitter account sent this-
"We are all concerned with events in CBD. Fares have increased to encourage more drivers to come online and pick up passengers in the area."
Then an hour later, after getting hammered on twitter, they decided to make all rides free. Uber pretty much has the worst PR department I have ever seen.

The price of silver fell 25% in the second half of last year. That's not a "collapse", but it's still pretty bad.
I used to feel that way. Then I packed up my shit and moved out of Indiana. Best decision I ever made.
The people who didn't vote are just as responsible as the people who voted for a Republican Senator.
If you think "they're all the same anyway", then fine. Just don't complain when Ted Cruz is a committee chair.
This is the correct answer.
Yeah, some idiots a couple thousand miles away voted for this fool and now we all get to deal with it.
The American people, collectively, chose the Republican Party to be in charge of the Senate. This is the result.
Yes, I know.
The point is that John Boehner has had to approve of all legislation since January 2011. That completely destroys the "insightful" comment made by the parent post.
Democrats lost control of Congress in 2010. It was in all the papers.
Emails have time stamps.
That's unfortunate that you bought a crappy car. My voice recognition works great.

Seriously?

So you heard something on the internet, and that's automatically factually correct?

Or does your outrage only apply to rich people?

Apparently some Russia shops are pricing items in "Nominal Price Units", which is code for Dollars.
Would you say that the trend is up or down on bitcoin?

The decentralized currency that's lost two thirds of its value over the past year or a different one?
