All the people I watch on youtube make the majority of their money on patreon or twitch. Youtube is way too heavy handed with demonitization and copyright strikes to be a trutsworthy income source.

Yes they have an IG but I doubt the birthdate they gave is their real one.

It’s less likely, but if they do get lit on fire then you still have a class D fire on your hands. Unfortunately with car accidents and that much energy being stored in one place, fires are going to happen.

It’s not the electrolyte that’s the issue, it’s the lithium. Solid electrolyte batteries wont make any difference. Unless by solid state you mean, no chemical reaction and we just switch to electrostatic cells, but that is nowhere near viable.

Biden seems determined to have history know him as a spineless cretin. At this point Israel could do a repeat of the USS Liberty and biden would just chalk it up as another happy little accident.

Damn it! I just started a new good campaign because I knew I’d need to run an evil one when this dropped. Oh well. Time to abandon another campaign.

Ah, that makes much more sense.

Most likely.

Also how the hell does he wind up still going to that school after he already threatened to shoot the place up? At least when I was going to school anything even close to that would get you kicked out and put in the special troubled kid school.

So far they’re just saying “AR platform” which could mean anything.

I hate how news agencies do that shit. People who don’t know anything about guns see that and see “big scary automatic military rifle with 1 gajillion round magazine”. Where in reality a ton of guns from tiny handguns to .50 beowulf big game rifles use the “AR platform” just because it’s an old enough design to be public domain. Saying it’s an AR platform gun tells us exactly nothing.

A company I used to work for outsourced most of their coding to a company in India. I say most because when the code came back the internal teams anways had to put a bunch of work in to fix it and integrate it with existing systems. I imagine that, if anything, LLMs will just take the place of that overseas coding farm. The code they spit out will still need to be fixed and modified so it works with your existing systems and that work is going to require programmers.

Even then I don’t imagine it would be easy. Anything in a nuclear plant needs to be built to an extremely exacting standard that I’m pretty sure old coal powerplant components wouldn’t be. I can’t see how you could convert a coal plant into a nuclear plant without having to completely rebuild everything.

I don’t know about solar panels but fiberglass wind turbine blades are kinda recyclable. Fiberglass can be ground up and mixed into concrete to vastly improve the strength of that concrete.

It really depends on the location and situation. With the new generations of reactors they can also do things like seawater desalination with the waste heat alongside power production. You also have situations where the nuclear waste heat is used to heat entire communities far more efficiently than could be done with electricity. There are also many places where solar and wind just aren’t practical for various reasons. In those areas nuclear may be a good option for base load power. Nuclear is also still far less environmentally destructive than hydro.

Yes, nuclear power plants are henoiusly expensive and there are definitely areas that they shouldn’t be built, but they do still serve a purpose in certain areas. Most of the flack nuclear gets is just because most of our reactor fleet was built durring the cold war. New technologies can acheive far more with nuclear power far more safely and cost effectively than those old reactors.

Don’t know about solar but I know nuclear at least used to be statistically safer than wind per MW just due to injuries during construction. Gotta remember, it takes a lot of solar or wind to make the same amount of power as a nuclear plant and that means a lot of construction work. But I also haven’t seeen those stats for a while so it may have changed.

Nuclear is very safe assuming you don’t build the plant in a tsunami prone area which also happens to be practically on top of 4 different fault lines.

Whenever I remove my shirt I hear “The beacons are lit! Gondor call for aid!”

Nope that sounds about the same. We barely even got a winter these past couple years.

Exactly. She’ll be great. I just don’t think she can win an election unless she really blows it out of the park before then.

Peggy Flanagan seems great and seems like she will be great for the state, but unfortunately she isn’t nearly as electable in MN as Walz was. Walz was a down to earth highschool teacher, where Flanagan is a city born life long activist. I don’t think she’ll be able to swing the rural votes when reelection comes up. She comes across as very cosmopolitan which isn’t a bad thing but it won’t win her any rural votes in a state which is mostly rural.

Oh my god! I would love to see Tim Walz debate the couch fucker. I need to go buy some popcorn so I’m ready.

Better move quick. Our winters are getting shorter startlingly quickly. We’ve been lucky to even get snow by christmas these past couple years.
