Thank you for taking the time to reply. I think I kinda understand what you say but I have more reading to do. Currently I’m on some relevant wiki pages trying to get a better understanding [Spent nuclear fuel, Radioactive waste, Long-lived fission product].

In case you (or anyone) have any other links to suggest, please do not hesitate.

Thank you for sharing this link. It was very interesting listening to someone from within the US that is head of an office now and started from Shell Solar.

There is a reasoning that I didn’t get. Maybe I misunderstood something or I lack some information/knowledge. Anyways, here it is:

At 1:02 they talks about nuclear waste saying that all the nuclear waste produced in the US by the nuclear power plants is like a football field that is 10 yards tall and then he talks about why this waste is not concerning.

Later at 1:07 He mentions that the US is not reprocesing the uranium fuel rods, in which 95% of the energy is still there, and that the US should do reprocessing like other countries do.

Doesn’t that mean that these unprocessed rods in the US that are in the “football field of nuclear waste” are therefore a concern?

What kind of a moron are you? When you make claims you bring the proof.

Or you know, I could assert that you’re, say, a donkey-fucker. If you got proof to the contrary, please provide it.

I am not making claims. I shared an article on a matter that bugs me. I wanted to see what people think and potentially inform myself further.

And your input was definitely invaluable!

These are not my points, they come from the article. So for example in relation to your question on the

SMRs cannot be counted on to provide reliable and resilient off-the-grid power…

they have a couple of paragraphs that give an explanation.

My personal stance is that sustainability cannot be achieved within capitalism due to its model of eternal growth. We can have one or the other, but not both.

So creating more energy could not be the solution. Creating less demand would be, and the demand comes from industries.

More often than not, I it seems to me this discussion about clean energy is a deflection of the real problem which is industrialisation under capitalism. We don’t question anymore what this energy is needed for.

Now that you mentioned maps, I thought of sharing the United Nations one of this region, from September 2023.
It includes details of Isreal’s perimeter fence and shows the few entry points to Gaza, as well as some other chilling details on how Israel controls the state of Palestine.

Btw Gaza and the West Bank are Palestine. The State of Palestine is recognized as a sovereign state by 143 of the 193 member states of the United Nations, just not by the traditional colonialists (US, Israel, most EU, Australia) and a few more. “Devide-and-conquer” is the name of the game.

[Here are included some more maps, with recent & scary details from UN of the region]

“You take some flour. We made a floating pier for you.”

“And you take 1 billion dollars in arms to kill those you starve to death.”

I’m kinda surprised the number is as low as 500, considering 35k have been killed in total, by all reports.

If you take into consideration that the West Bank is not the in this “war”, how does this number sound like?

US citizens don’t need to fear any Russian disinformation video campaign, just themselves. Remember Pizzagate? No video was needed for this one to stick.

And how on earth did you arrive to this arbitrary conclusion?

So this title claims that

US intelligence spotted Chinese, Iranian deepfakes in 2020 aimed at influencing US voters

After that we get nothing but in more words:

It’s unclear what was depicted in the deepfakes

The NSA declined to comment.

And some bits that kinda contradict the danger implied in the title

The Chinese and Iranian operatives never disseminated the deepfake audio or video publicly

While they didn’t deploy their deepfakes in 2020, Iranian government operatives

At the time, some US officials who reviewed the intelligence were unimpressed, believing it showed China and Iran lacked the capability to deploy deepfakes in a way that would seriously impact the 2020 presidential election

Finally, we arrive to the funniest part:

This story has been updated with additional information.

So the info is that there is no info? And this was written by 3 people? Give us a break CNN

The brothers created 16 Ethereum validators and targeted three specific traders who operated MEV bots, the indictment said.

To activate 1 validator you need 32 ETH. So for the 16 validators they got, it would be 512 ETH. Prices in December 2022 for eth were around 1200$. So they “invested” in this fraud over 600,000$.

Today’s eth price is around 3000$ so they’d be having over 1.5 mil, if they weren’t that greedy

Yes, there is this effort to equate anti-zionism with anti-semitism. Thankfully there have been Jewish people against zionism, since its inception. Btw Meet The ‘Wrong Jew’ The Media Doesn’t Want You To Know Exists, and they say

“Not in our name!”

Obviously I don’t see this as good news because I can’t see how ecology and capitalism can work together, unless it is greenwashing. Environmentalism/ecology/etc want sustainability, capitalism is all about eternal growth of the business, and I don’t see corporations and other financial entities changing their business model? Do you?

Left bias yes, but even Media Bias Fact Check the score they give for Jacobin is high:

Factual Reporting: HIGH MBFC Credibility Rating: HIGH CREDIBILITY

[Edit - In relation to this article’s historical content here is another source:

I suppose greenwashing works? in the sense creates favorable stats, not that it helps the environment.

I see what you mean and I feel the same more often than not. On the other hand I think this is part of the authorities’ narrative that wants us to stay home. In reality we got the power and it is visible went we are out in the streets protesting, this genocide for instance. If we didn’t have the power authorities would not exercise so much force to stop us talking, marching or squating gras.
