I worry about what defines a traffic light? Is it just the light or does the pole it’s on count?

My parents forced me to learn in case I ever needed it.

I’d buy one again in a heartbeat if I could. Love the fact that it was easy AF to rock myself out of snow banks

books , to world in Young climate activist tells Greenpeace to drop ‘old-fashioned’ anti-nuclear stance

This comment has gained me the most attention on the fediverse so I wouldn’t be surprised if a lot of these comments are from or directly related to those type of content farms

I mean, we are using less coal in the US than we were… and that’s without more nuclear.

Right, but arguably more when they have catastrophic failures

I mean it’s possible to be both, right?

I live on a great lake, and if Canada started dumping their treated toxic waste into the water, I’d be pretty upset.

I mean, time is on my side with this argument, no?

That’s fair, but you are assuming that the US, or any other nation with a nuclear plant will be run by competent people. I don’t have that faith. Perhaps because I’m pessamistic, but perhaps because I see people like Trump getting elected, or the rise of right wing, anti science, governments getting elected across the globe.

Ukraine likely wasn’t thinking they would be invaded by their neighbor and neighboring countries are now put at risk because of one rogue nation attacking their neighbor.

My problem with nuclear is that IF shit goes sideways, you can’t put that genie back in the bottle. I just watched a documentary on Fukishima, and despite the fact it was built on the ocean, it’s a nightmare of engineering to try to contain the shit show…

Look, I know I’m not going to convince this group that I’m right, but your also not going to convince me that I’m wrong… because you can’t engineer end users or nature out of the discussion. They are always wild cards.

An airplane crash doesn’t directly impact people completely unrelated to the airplane. Nuclear radiation has no known boundary. Just look at China being pissed at Japan right now for releasing water back into the ocean.

A car accident doesn’t have ripple effects for those no where near the car accident.

I just think it’s absolutely nuts that, given the volatility of the earth, that we would even risk it.

books , to news in More dog owners are questioning vaccines like rabies after COVID

There should definitely be laws about vaccinating dogs against rabies.

I always feel like I’m taking fucking crazy pill when we talk about nuclear energy.

Are we forgetting Chernoble, 3 mile island, or even more recenlty fukishima?

Sure, nuclear energy is great, cheap and reliable… but IF something goes catastrophically wrong, like I dunno… earth quakes, hurricanes, tornados, floods, etc (IE things we can’t really plan for) you run the risk of not being able to fix it easily…

I guess I"m not a huge fan of making large swaths of the earth uninhabital if shit goes sideways.

books , to technology in Amazon CEO Andy Jassy warns remote workers: 'It's probably not going to work out for you'

This won’t change until there is a shortage of work and a surplus of workers.

books , to world in Climate activists target jets, yachts and golf in a string of global protests against luxury

Not to sound like a dick, but you sort of sound like Matt Gaetz accusing Antifa of J6.

There is zero proof that these people are moles. I’d be hard pressed to find a white 20 something to act the part of a climate activist, on the behalf of the oil companies.

books , to asklemmy in What is your "inexpensive" hobby that turned out to be expensive/ you gradually invested lots of money into?

Yup. Finally cleared out my homebrewing setup.

It was just too damn time consuming.
