This sounds really expensive. 5G as a backup makes sense, but 30 bucks is actual primary service money, not just in case money.

Make it 5 and I would consider it.

Lemy has such a hard on against nuclear

Maybe you should spend more time outside. Every flavor of nuclear has worse approval ratings than most dirtbag politicians.

I’m seeing reports by antinuclear think tank grifters shoved in my face almost daily…

Why do you think you need to PAY people to oppose nuclear? After seven decades of cockamamie “this time it’s different” schemes most people just moved on.

No. I’m not German. We run our reactors as long as possible because free money is free money ;)

Nuclear technologies missed their window. The use cases where they are the best technical solution now are extremely limited, and that means you can get the investment going to improve them.

It’s a curiosity now.

There’s an alternative timeline where Chernobyl doesn’t happen and we decarbonize by leaning on nuclear in the nineties, then transition to renewables about now. But that’s not our timeline. And if it were, it would be in the past now.

Surely you made a typo? 50 MW is a tenth of the electrical yield of the smallest PWR you can profitably operate.

Fucking finally!

I mean, I’m still going to get almost everything from the App Store, but it’s nice to have the option for the few niche things.

It’s not meant as an insult. It’s an intelligence term of art.

But yes, I also think you are a plain old regular idiot too.

Was just a question

The useful idiot’s rallying cry!

Hums the Internationale while reading the article.

Is even better! When a field changes from male dominated to female dominated, incomes across the field plummet!

That’s good and all, but I’d prefer a law that bans corporations from selling personal information.

It’s not about what people need. It’s about building infrastructure for new services and applications.

Besides, digging a trench is digging a trench. Just put in the fiber. It’s 2023.

I’m an Apple person, but for customizability you can’t beat a google pixel with an unlocked boot loader. You can literally run anything you want.

And that’s why we fight them everywhere.

I was about to say. Over here 90% of text communications are over WhatsApp. That’s a huge problem for a variety of reasons, but everyone is green bubble.
