Purchase 10 sq miles iround a mine Fill below any water table, fill with concrete
And that concrete is 100% carbon neutral and will never be affected by earthquakes.
Deep drill
When drilling is suddenly OK, then forego the nuclear reactor and go straight to geothermal.
Ignoring options with the benefits of 24x7 steady state generation is far more idiotic.
Tell that to you nuclear waste buddies who oppose geothermal.
- Comment on New clean energy comes out. *look inside* It’s just boiling water again… 2 weeks ago:
Relatively, yes, and not to mean somewhat. For the amount of power generated, the spent fuel/water is really not that significant.
Absolutely speaking, controlling nuclear waste for hundreds of thousands of years is impossible and any rationalization when cheaper and regenerative options exist is idiotic.

Fusion has been 10 years away, with proper funding. It never got that funding.
Fusion got billions in funding and it led barely anywhere. Meanwhile renewables are the cheapest mass market options.

geothermal doesn’t work everywhere
So what. That’s why power lines exist. Coal is BS, nuclear is BS. A healthy mix of renewables is possible right now.

Coal ash is dumped into a retaining pond by the ton.
I’m not defending coal, so stop trying that whataboutism BS with me.
- Comment on New clean energy comes out. *look inside* It’s just boiling water again… 2 weeks ago:
Renewables are cheaper than building new reactors. Fusion is always viable in 10 years.

Nuclear isn’t good.
Fully clean technologies exist already.
- Comment on New clean energy comes out. *look inside* It’s just boiling water again… 2 weeks ago:
“coal ash is worse” doesn’t make nuclear waste clean and non toxic. Both are dirty, just different kinds of dirt. Geothermal is an excellent “boil water” technology independent of weather and without toxic waste.
- Comment on New clean energy comes out. *look inside* It’s just boiling water again… 2 weeks ago:
Class A whataboutism. Both are dirty, neither is clean.

Radioactivity isn’t clean.

Uranium is clean?

ah today’s young ones…
Thanks.
- Comment on I hate Android! 3 weeks ago:
the question is: why do two, not even three, apps consume all of the 4gb?
Mozilla had to fire a big part of their browser engineering team to raise the salary of their CEO. That’s how FF is less optimized.

I would definitely buy a Jolla Phone or it would work in the US.
It should work there. The problem for you would be no direct shipping to the US.

I remember even my Win98 machine had to have 16GB of RAM or couldn’t get anything done.
Try to get a modern web browser working on your Win98 machine. The problem is modern web browsers eating RAM, not Android.
- Comment on I hate Android! 3 weeks ago:
But seriously, I’ve got an old laptop still in use and that’s getting along fine on 4 GB. Firefox, KDE, Libre Office, background tasks, some light gaming, no problem.
Let me guess: That old laptop has a swap file or partition?
If you dislike Android so much, get commerce.jolla.com/…/jolla-phone-october-2026 Should pair well with your new >1000 Euro Steam Machine.
- Comment on I hate Android! 3 weeks ago:
using Android doesn’t have to mean it’s smart to go into intentional denial of a long list of shit that sucks, just to be a fanboy.
No OS can do magic and turn 4GB RAM into a suitable amount for memory hungry modern web browsers.
- Comment on I hate Android! 3 weeks ago:
Although I am mildly infuriated that you hate Android
OP uses 4GB RAM but blames the OS.
- Comment on I hate Android! 3 weeks ago:
I disable power management on the apps I use often and never run into the issue.
Power management does nothing when RAM is as constrained as 4GB
- Comment on I hate Android! 3 weeks ago:
Android also doesn’t use swap
Years ago a friend of mine actually enabled swap on a MicroSD. It worked, no idea for how long, though. That type of memory isn’t reliable enough to handle this.
- Comment on I hate Android! 3 weeks ago:
But that said: I would love to replace it all with a true Linux phone.
4GB RAM, a modern web browser, and no swap file/partition. That doesn’t work well anywhere. Not Android, not GNU/Linux, not Windows, not macOS.
- Comment on I hate Android! 3 weeks ago:
I’ve got 4 GB of RAM and multiple CPU cores. That should be enough to run a dozen apps in parallel.
In which world is 4GB enough to multitask a web browser under any OS?
- Comment on This oughta work 3 weeks ago:
Except it’s wishful thinking because nobody wants to actually pay for any kind of infrastructure.

I don’t. No that this has to be true for others but I use the command line for

Well who uses powershell? Common people open command prompt and it doesn’t support ls.
Windows Terminal defaults to PowerShell since a while.
