        Thank you Junior. Don’t forget to wear you shoes when you go play in the asbestos pit at school. I put two cigarettes in your lunchbox you can have one at lunch if your teacher says its okay and one on the way to home after your shift at the radium watch painting factory.

      It’ll come back eventually unless fusion takes over. The power density promises are simply too attractive.

        The mining and processing of the “fuel” is not. The cost of the plants neither. That’s why nuclear is slowly losing to regenerative.

      I’m so out of my depth in this thread. Is this a real side effect of radiation?

      source
      • Milk_Sheikh@lemm.ee ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

        I can’t find it now, but I’d swear to having read an anecdote from someone working with radiation who reported tingling teeth during exposure.

        It definitely does a lot of nasty things to the body.

      Given the up-front cost of any kind of reactor, I don’t think the concept of a usage-based electric bill goes away as long as it’s corporations competing for customers. Maybe eventually it would be like ISPs where it’s a flat fee depending on the size of your connection. I guess it could be totally unmetered then.

      Like so many things, it gets a lot simpler if it’s the government supplying the service.

        It’s not too cheap to meter even when provided as a public service. Nuclear is more expensive than battery + solar, more expensive than wind, more expensive than coal

        “Too cheap to meter” was a lie that ignored costs of safety and decommissioning.

        More people die from wind turbines and hydro than from nuclear on a per tWh basis. If we actually want to save lives we would require higher levels of safety standards on fossil fuels that are magnitudes more dangerous than nuclear

      The imperial system doesn’t have any electromagnetism units that I’m aware of, so they borrow from SI.

        The Watt predates the SI itself. SI borrows the Watt much as it dues with other units.
