Chickenstalker , in A failed lunar mission dents Russian pride and reflects deeper problems with Moscow's space industry

Maybe someone sold the rocket fuel as vodka.

Coldgoron , in Growing share of Americans favor more nuclear power

Well its not really a choice with climate change about to wreck most things.

Yeah, that’s what most people fail to grok. This summer, 2023, will be the coolest summer for the rest of your life. In frightfully few years, weather catastrophes will be as commonplace as gas station stickups, and all of the ‘modern conveniences’ will be doubtful at best.

The internet will be frequently and increasingly unplugged, highways will buckle, flying will be only for oligarchs, hospitals will be amateur efforts, Hollywood will be in flames, pro baseball will be untenable, and wild hoards will roam what used to be the cities, searching for food.

In this mix, it’s laughable to imagine there’ll be full, stable, well-trained staffing at nuclear power plants.

Interesting that you included baseball on that list

The whole comment was me retyping something I’d texted to my oblivious Republican nephew a few days ago, and he’s a baseball fan. :)

Yeah cooling them with river water won’t work in the summer pretty soon and since it takes almost 10 years to build it really isn’t a reasonable choice if you see how many renewables you can rollout in that time with that money

Thorndike , in In session reacting to school shooting, Tennessee GOP lawmaker orders removal of public from hearing

Whenever I see a story about Tennessee, I like to post this Stephen Lynch song. www.youtube.com/watch?v=I6VjNmyv_i4 Trust me, it is well worth a listen.

coheedcollapse , (edited ) in When a Coke Plant Closed in Pittsburgh, Cardiovascular ER Visits Plunged

It’s funny, growing up near a steel mill/train hub, I took for granted how confused other people might be about what the hell “coke” is.

On-topic - I once looked up stats for estimated premature deaths due to industry in our area and it was eye-opening. I really want to get out of here.

Crazy how people have the ability to overlook/ignore deaths caused by things as long as the deaths are a bit more gradual. A hundred premature deaths over the course of a year or so is practically nothing on the public’s radar, but if an accidental release at the mill killed a single person downwind, there’d be hell to pay.

lntl , in US citizens urged to leave Belarus immediately

I’m a little surprised this warning wasn’t issued last year. Better late than never?

quinkin , in Tennessee zoo says it has welcomed a rare spotless giraffe

Horse in enclosure next door, trying not to look shifty.

jimmydoreisalefty , in UPS workers approve new contract with hard-fought pay and safety wins, ending strike threat

Spoke with a local UPS worker, he was able to let me know about the wins!

I informed him about the potential Auto strike, also.

Small wins, need to keep them up!

Track_Shovel , in Elon Musk to strip headlines off news links on Twitter in latest overhaul

How moronic can one person be? Every time this guy turns around he’s making a complete dogshit decision. And that’s an objective statement, because I don’t use Twitter. Everything he does seems to serve no purpose but to fuck him (butt fuck him?) In the long run.

HotsauceHurricane , in In session reacting to school shooting, Tennessee GOP lawmaker orders removal of public from hearing

Cowards.

Kaliax , in 3D eye scans at opticians could identify those at risk of Parkinson’s, study finds

What is a “high street” optician… ?

partial_accumen ,

“High Street” is the British phrasing of “main street” meaning, “regular old optician you go to for glasses”.

Kaliax ,

Thank you.

WarmSoda , in Goodbye Bathtub and Living Room. America’s Homes Are Shrinking

“embracing”

flossdaily , in Elon Musk to strip headlines off news links on Twitter in latest overhaul

God? Are you there God? It’s me, flossdaily.

I have just one wish. Please let Elon Musk buy Fox News and run it the way he runs Twitter.

Amen.

SomberBrain , in UPS workers approve new contract with hard-fought pay and safety wins, ending strike threat

I have family members working union for UPS l, it is not for the faint of heart! They deserve their raise

Damn I gotta cancel my trip
