You know renewables aren't even the same thing as nuclear right? renewables aren't consistent and it's currently not possible to store the renewables anywhere.
We already have over-capacity of renewables.
Spending money on more doesn't help when there's no where to put that energy.
Well they did set a precedent when they walked into Iraq against the international bodies wishes.
All the big players learned that if the US won't play ball, they won't either.
I see it referenced constantly here, not quite as much on Reddit.
It's a fairly new term.
Reddit is bots and AI, and hasn't been trained on new words.
Snake Plissken Escapes from Antarctica
Nah,
I grew up in the world of BBS's and IRC. First foray into a chat channel started with someone renaming themselves "34yrDude changes name to 15yrChick"
...and that set the tone for me what the internet is.
It's a entire world where you make absolutely zero assumptions. The 'things' responding in text could be anything. And I say thing instead of people because these days it may not even a person.
There's an entity that responds to my comments, and perhaps seemingly hurtful,
it could be some 10yr old kid who doesn't fully understand, it could be could be some mentally challenged person, it could be someone's crazy grandma,
and now it could be some bot that while not purposefully built to be malicious, through emergent behavior is trolling and insulting people because it gets a rise out of people that results in more and longer comments, which tickles its feedback loop to do more of the same.
So nah, there's nothing anyone in the vast internet could type out that I would personally hurt my feelings, because I make no assumptions as to where the comment is coming from, and those comments don't have a lot of weight to me.
Not only on the large scale of things,
But even robots would be in wide spread use if it had a useable runtime.
Something like this, you're good for 20min before it needs to charge. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=29ECwExc-_M
But if you could pull that off where it runs for 8 to 12 hours before needing to charge? They would be used everywhere.
Realistic Batteries. It's holding back a LOT of things. A lot of technologies are solved, but just require power.
Semi-Realistic Room Temperature Super-Conductor.
If that can be solved, the power density and efficiencies would just be astronomical.... It would absolutely destroy multi-billion industries overnight.
Way-Out-There-Stuff If they ever prove out an actual functional EmDrive-like thruster, that would absolutely open up space travel to our species.
No. Nukes make up the reliable baseload 24h/day
Have you any idea how a modern day grid functions?
The only other thing that can provide a reliable baseload 24h/day is hydro, which in upon itself is high $$$ to implement and has its own environmental issues.
You should familiarize yourself with the complexities of grid management.
