fr? i have had the questionable honour to witness several battery depletions from my deck waking up because i was near them with my paired headphones without noticing. So glancing at this post had my hopes up for a few hot seconds :<
i was really pleasantly surprised by the well thought out manual that came with my case. It felt … intimate idk. just adding to the choir here
Very hard times for The Onion
I have been working in decomissioning npps in germany for over a decade now which is why I feel so strongly about the knee-jerk conservative BS. no, there are not -a million ways- to make waste from nuclear power plants safe. even material released from regulations (concrete from decomissioned buildings for example or soil from the ground) has some residual radioactive particles and just like alcohol in pregnancies: there is no safe amount of exposure to radiation, just a lower risk of provoking potentially fatal genetic mutation that european regulators deem acceptable. but that in and of itself is not really problematic. It is just that we cannot assume ideal conditions for running these plants. while relatively safe during a well monitored and maintained period in the power producing state of a npp that changes radically if things go south. Just look at what happened to the zhaporizhia powerplant in ukraine they actively attacked a nuclear site! And all the meticulous precautions go out the window if a bunch of rogues decide to be stupid - just because. and tbf whatever mess the release of large amounts of radioactive particles does to our environment, economy and society i would rather not find out. as others have laid out here, there are safer and better suiting alternatives that are not coal.
das klingt mir doch etwas vage? Es ist schon ganz schön blöd, wenn eine gemeinschaft was sie vorn (in der ersten ausbildungsphase des lebens) so schön aufgebaut hat, direkt mit dem arsch wieder einreisst. Das mag man doof finden, sich allerdings darauf auszuruhen, dass dies ein naturgesetz wäre und, ist doch arg defätistisch, meinst du nicht auch?
No need for name calling. I am an engineer specialized in radiation protection. Hell i actively work at nuclear sites on a daily basis. why would i lie? the underlying principle of the ‘acceptable risk’ i am talking about is called ‘alara’ - as low as reasonably achievable.
on another note: i am convinced that Staying uneducated and even actively manipulating those who dont know better is ridiculously destructive to our society. Please don’t do that.
Humans are human. Just harder to accept immutable human rights apply to humans that do anything to fight the notion. billionaires take shits just like anyone. i agree that we need to stop enableing the opressor just never assume their behaivior aint human - because it sadly is.
In meiner reclam ausgabe vor 25 jahren war beim groß vom großen loch nur …so *** es war, gefiels ihm doch… zu sehen. Musste mithin ein viertel jahrhundert altern um zu lernen, dass es nicht feucht sondern groß war? was war da mit dem redakty los?
Thank you, i didn’t expect sharpie strokes to boost my morning! That person is taking on the day like a champ. Keep up the good work :)
