Not just France, the nuclear plants here around Chicago illinois load follow, and we get over 50% of our energy from nuclear. Uh oh, you assertions are obviously incorrect. Nuclear plants can be designed to load follow, and moreover have their power put into water cracking, vehicle charging or other forms of storage for during off peak load. Your "alternative energy" is a waste of money and low-density energy. Nuclear fission power can supply us with power for centuries, plenty of time fo solve fusion issues.
The power output of any of those are too puny for a first world nation. Gnat farts compared to 2.5 GW of a modern nuclear plant. Even impressive maximum solar plant output have to be cut 75% or 80% to get total for 24 hours to compare to the steady output of a nuke plant.
waste of real estate and too little energy. The Blythe plant output sounds impressive, until you realize it can't take sunlight 24x7. So divide its 960 MW by four or more. That's a tenth of the power of modern two reactor nuclear facility that would take up less than a square mile compared to the 12 square miles it occupies. Then realize its $6 billion price tag. Compared to nuclear power, it's a farce.
moving and positioning metal clad pellets at that *very slow* rate of feed is no big deal, bigger challenges have been met in advanced case-less and electromagnetic firearms design at over several hundred times the feed rate. The interior of the chamber and its feeding system will contain no water, and the chamber itself only need be surrounded by good heat sink with plumbing.
funny other smarter countries in the U.S. are heavily investing and developing thorium (and other breeder technology) reactors. The first world will soon be those that have nuclear power, and the rest will be third world.
utter rubbish, you can't weaponize a fusion system designed for power generation, an electrical powered compression system that needs large buildings or many buildings isn't going into the volume of bucket for icbm launch nor into a briefcase.
You must live in the boonies, that desn't work around large urban areas. You put an adequate stopping distance between yourself and the next car on the Dan Ryan or Kennedy expressway near Chicago, and two cars and a truck will wedge themselves in that space. Then as you try to back off of that configuration, people will zoom up behind you within two feet and blast their horn and cuss at you for being an impediment, and roar around you swinging back into your new gap. Your chances of an accident thus going up by a factor of at least ten.
well I'll be sheep dipped! I just looked that up and didn't realize there was an AutoCAD 80 for CP/M besides the AutoCAD 86 for the PC. And I was a old hand at AutoCAD in the 80s (IBM AT clone) and in the 90s (on Sun and SGI)
indeed, bricks of cocaine and wrapping paper with blue packing tape work much better for packing in a PC than pancake mix bags. no one will ever think to look in those.
bullshit, I can put a price on having *my* family's health insufficiently financed because I have to pay for my family while ALSO I'm supposed to support others. I CAN bring up cost and money because I'm paying for it! Your spawn of ghetto whores who spread their legs for every man that comes along because the state pays them to do it, are not my first priority.
I have no retirement plan where I work, and the health benefits are if you go with the company's policy that costs $3000 a month they'll chip in $100. So fuck you and your self-righteous attitude, why should the slackers at the post office get full benefits when most the nation gets nothing? And hell yes I knew many people born before then, I'm not a young man.

Why, that's even colder than the null-entropy bin in my Harkonen No-Globe!
Plenty of good people are hurting so badly in this economy they would take the post worker's jobs at half pay and no retirement benefits. Toss all workers out and on their ass and hire a whole new worker force. Also, the government can lead with a four day work week, starting with the postal force. Tuesday through Friday delivery is good enough.
working horribly, costs are through the stratosphere. Because the healthcare bill didn't have a robust public option, the positive feedback spiral of insurance, healthcare chains, big pharmy can rocket up.
even for a politician, Obama is the biggest lying sack of shit to get shat into the white house. he's a corporate bitch even worse than Bush/Cheney

gen II plants, not relevant to discussion of new reactors which cannot fail that way.

it can also come in stainless steel or aluminum kegs, which work great for signals of longer wavelength.

Forget it for now, requires ion energies ten times or more higher than h2/h3 fusion. we need to get the easy stuff working first.

far too late to change anything, the train wreck in slow motion is moving right along without any hope.
and also, what is the law now but a tool of a small elite with goverment in their pockets to fuck us all over
bad assumption on your part, I don't live in that fucking shithole

haha "Tax cheat", the California government are the cheats and thieves, spending into a hole. why bother with hopeless effort to bail them out?

Gee, and here I thought it was the erlang they were using that was the problem

it says "gets infected by unstoppable malware requiring a reformatting of MBR" on the tin?
It has everything to do with issue at hand, shows how microsoft will turn like a snake on its own customers by making up its own rules.
I will continue to dissuade people from using ms products. I will bad-mouth them. you will have to read it in the future.
