I’unno. Maybe the teacher saw it used somewhere, thought it was a cute sticker, and started using it for that reason.

A teacher can put a cute sticker on your test for doing well.

We were blocked in Turkey for 3 years or so, and fought all the way to the Supreme Court and won. Nothing has changed about our principles. The difference in this case is that the short term legal requirements in order to not wreck the long term chance of victory made this a necessary step.

Hopefully not block the entire website in India.

Part of the reason Fairphone is so (relatively) expensive is because it also has a big focus on ethically sourced/produced parts.

I’unno, read the article.

Nuclear doesn’t reduce the difference between supply and demand.

How does it not?
There’s a certain “base load” to any power grid which could easily be done by “inflexible” nuclear powerplants.

Sodium doesn’t address the problem with EV weight.

Inefficiency is fine if you have an abundance of energy.

Running a country exclusively on renewables comes with its own costs in storage and emergency solutions.
I’m not saying “go exclusively nuclear” either. Supplementing it with renewables should be done.

2024, you mean?

I’m not a fan. I prefer watching in theatre mode; when opening comments it closes theatre mode.

Going 100% renewable is going to require an immense amount of storage, nevermind their instability. Any base load we can replace with nuclear is going to lessen that burden.

EV’s are heavy and require a ton of rare Lithium.

Using over capacity to generate hydrogen seems to me like a way to solve that. Hydrogen which in turn can be used to power cars, trucks, ships.

I don’t see how nuclear would slow the transition away from oil and gas.

Depending on your definition “pay to skip” = “pay to win”.

Sorry, I was replying to a comment about offshore wind in the EU.

Supposedly you’d set up some proper regulations, implement checks and balances but given the current US business and political climate; good question.

They have no upsides

Except the lack of greenhouse gas emissions, once up and running.

If we actually started developing them on any sort of scale most of those negatives you mention will be negated.
Flexibility, as in the inability to quickly ramp down, can be solved with storage or with generating hydrogen.

We need more nuclear reactors

Or “donations”, “sponsorships”, and similar.

Nokia doesn’t make smartphones either, they licensed their brand name to HMD Global.

(In case you might find that curious)

I gave up after 14! Silly me.
