Not only their own waste, but other radionucleotides - it’s very impressive. I’d love to see a crash program to develop a modular thorium reactor that could eat this stuff.

the raw material was mined. Just put the waste back in the same hole.
yeah it seems really simple, but then, you have the realities:
lots of uranium mining is open pits. like this one in namibia - Image - that’s not going to keep stuff in one place.
transporting it, hell even getting the producers to agree to accepting it for storage - would be a political nightmare.
even in places where it was mined underground, you have water tables to worry about. it’s simply not that simple.

I disagree, only thinking we should cover EVERYTHING - any human building / structure etc should have solar all over. yeah, it’s not cheap to build them, but we should stop playing fuckaround and get it done, it’ll be cheaper to do it today than tomorrow.
But re: fields - they can do double duty via agrivoltaics - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agrivoltaics
- Comment on It works better if you put it in your mouth first. 3 days ago:
no radioactive waste to deal with either.
and with solar, most of the hardware can be recycled now into new units; with a 20 year lifespan, that’s going to pull thousands of kilowatts out of the sky, that’ll do just fine.
- Comment on Is the "Gen z stare" a real thing? 4 days ago:
I’ve seen a lot of this over the last few years, esp since covid.
Part of it is: “That’s the most absurdly stupid thing I’ve heard in a while, let’s allow this to echo for a bit and maybe when the speaker thinks on what they said for a bit, they’ll reconsider.” But there’s a range, from that to grey rock - just deny the other party any kind of reaction, much less satisfaction. just be a blank space. grey rock is really useful vs narcissists and people who feel entitled (why don’t you just smile more).
we weren’t as sophisticated in this way when I was a kid; if your parent was emotionally manipulative or abusive, we generally had to just eat shit. kids these days can do research and find strategies, and I respect that. on the other hand, I’ve never had a problem just picking up the phone and calling someone, which my kid thinks is absolutely deranged.
it’s funny how times change.

how the fuck does someone walk off with a doorknob?

GUNSHIP on tandy.

- Comment on [Jason Schreier] AAA game budgets estimated around $300 million. These budgets are almost entirely dev salaries + overheard and have nothing to do with executive compensation (which is mostly stock) 5 days ago:
yeah that sounds like lumberyard, their reskinning of the cryengine they bought from crytek.
went to a few presentations on this with our local IGDA chapter, it was huge, slow and bloated.

- Comment on College core: you sit in the class for attendance then go home and teach yourself 6 days ago:
yep. I kept thinking in my first two years that things would change enormously when I reached the more rarefied advanced courses… nope. memorize the slides. see the prof once or twice from across an auditorium of 300+ people. :|

were they trying to get away from lumberyard (coughcryengine) or was lumberyard what they spent a billion on?
either way, fascinating
- Comment on College core: you sit in the class for attendance then go home and teach yourself 6 days ago:
a bunch of my uni courses were taught by TAs doing that same regurgitation.

100% diarrhea means they eliminated nothing.
I take exception to this phrasing, whenever i have 100% diarrhea I eliminate the the contents of my guts and a half roll of toilet paper at least.

- Comment on Renters continue to face a tight rental market and rising costs, according to new report 1 week ago:
it’s amazing to me that saner countries are still struggling with this basic issue. like, dude, shelter is a known need. and building it is something we know how to do. AAAAND figuring out how many houses the people need for shelter is straight forward to calculate decades in advance.
but, fuck you, landlords.
