Hä, ich verstehe nicht was du meinst?

While nuclear energy can appear cost-effective compared to other energy sources, the true cost is often higher when considering indirect factors. Society typically bears these costs through taxes, insurance premiums, and health care costs rather than the price paid for nuclear-generated electricity.
These costs can be divided into several categories:

1. Environmental Costs: These include the long-term management of nuclear waste, the potential contamination from radioactive materials, and the decommissioning of nuclear plants. Managing nuclear waste safely over thousands of years is a significant and expensive challenge.
2. Health Costs: Exposure to radiation can have serious health impacts, including cancer and genetic damage. The cost of healthcare for affected individuals and communities can be substantial.
3. Accident Costs: In the event of a nuclear accident, such as the Chernobyl or Fukushima disasters, the costs can be immense. This includes evacuation, compensation, cleanup, and long-term environmental and health monitoring.
4. Security Costs: Ensuring that nuclear materials are not diverted for weapons use or targeted by terrorists involves significant expenditure on security measures and regulatory oversight.
5. Economic Costs: There can be broader economic impacts from nuclear accidents, including loss of agricultural or commercial land, reduced property values, and long-term disruption to local economies.

Nuclear is over, because it's stupid, expensive and really dangerous for a LONG time

Don't get me wrong, I hate cars. But people are already dying from them, because humans make mistakes and drive reclesly. Don't you think traffic with 100% self-driving cars would be safer because AI is more careful? New technology has got to start start somewhere. Feels a little "not in my backyard" to me. Yes cyclists are unsafe, but not because of Teslas self-driving EVs.

I don't get it. There is a new technology, self-driving electric vehicles, it's evolving and it's not perfect (yet). You don't have to buy this technology, you don't have to engage in any way, just look at something else and let it mature. Yet I get headline after headline celebrating small failures. This is like an anti-fandom. Why?!

Took me some time to get used to, but I deactivated all the YouTube plugins and now use Freetube an my desktop/laptop.

Sharing videos from NewPipe to Kodi worked pretty well. But I switched too, after years of tweaking & fiddeling and I now use just an old laptop with Mint and a controller. It's not as pretty and controller-friendly, but much more stable and I don't really need the movie collection features.

Wow, you ticked like half of the Vegan Bullshit Bingo.
The opposite of love is not hate, it's apathy. Please engage, don't just watch. Start wherever you like, but start!

This is not my native language and I'm too lazy to translate whole recipies, so here are just a few tips:

• Cook yellow lentils with vegetable stock to make a creamy sauce, add more stuff and seasoning to taste
• Red lentils stay a bit harder and replace minced meat very well
• Brown lentils with smoked tofu, leek, potatoes, celery and carrots make a great German lentil soup
• Find a recipe for bean chili
• Look for potato and pumpkin-curry
• Throw lentils and chickpeas or beans into tomato sauces and see what you like. There are no rules, I put beans or lentils in every meal!
• Make a fresh salad and toss in cold pasta and beans for a real meal

I love hummus, too!

• Try black beans and edamame, they are more crunchy.
• Try different brands and put small amounts in every meal until you get used to it.
• Buy a pressure cooker and cook dried beans yourself. The are cheaper und the texture is so much better! You can cook more than you need and put them in the freezer for later use.

Beans, chickpeas and lentils are my favorite daily superfoods. So cheap, so tasty, so healthy. Meat is so far in the rearview mirror I don't even understand the concept anymore.

Yeah, I'm surprised how many comments are not even trying to understand anything. The information is only one click away, from credible sources.
Feels like talking to an army of 12 year olds.

You want the red pill or the blue pill?
Both clips are less then 5 minutes, red is a little graphic, blue an abstract animation.

Were you raised vegan from birth? Are you still vegan? Asking out of curiosity.

Become a good one then!

I get what you are saying and I agree with "thats not for me". The difference to other personal preferences is that as a carnist, you are paying for literaly billions of our fellow earthlings being killed on an industrial scale. So many that it's destroying our livelihood. This is not a personal choice anymore, there are victims you choose to not notice, human and non-human. A lot of victims, 1.9 million chickens killed in Germany every day.
Once you realise this and you have the courage to really look beyond the word slaughter with your own eyes, see the inconceivable suffering, this became something I could not push out of my sight anymore. And then you realise it's everywhere, and everyone is calling themselves animal lovers. So what do you do?

Your ideology has a name and it's called Carnism

You're not the victim. You're not the one who's throat is being cut. You're the one paying for it to happen, because you like a taste and they can't fight back because they don't have a voice.

There's still shampoo with silicone as an ingedient, so your hair feels silky smooth. Because it wraps every single hair in invisible plastic.

This is not a good answer. 10 years ago nobody cared and we kept doing what we always did. Now everyone realises humanity is facing a severe survival-problem in the near future and people instantly switch from denying it to accepting it. Please don't! There are so many things one can do to fight our collapse. Apathy, catastrophism and cynicism gives power to the fossil destroyers. Don't let those fuckers win, go solarpunk on them! Take your money to a green, ethical bank, go vegan, grow potatoes with your neighborhood, repair stuff and blow up a pipeline.
In a strange way, the global heating gives our lifes way more meaning than 30 years ago, when nothing mattered and we just kept buying toys until we die.
