Like burning coal which releases uncontrolled and unmeasured quantities of radiation and heavy metals like Mercury.
burning of coal are environmentally and biologically toxic elements, such as lead, mercury, nickel, tin, cadmium, antimony, and arsenic, as well as radio isotopes of thorium and strontium.
A word with what? Great examples of safe and effective design that kept all the fuel in the containment vessel?
Three Mile Island was a partial meltdown with no release of isotopes or actinides. Could it have been better, for sure, and the decommissioning and clean up had their own issues but in a single day the amount of toxic chemicals and radioactive dust given off in a single coal burner is greater than ALL the radiation released at TMI. If we are going to cite it as an example of failure or harm its only fair to show comparable harm for other currently subsidized forms of energy that are uncounted when it comes to their full harm outside of just global warming gasses.
Fukushima was another great example of how safe nuclear can be when properly regulated. When the quake hit all of the online reactors went into shutdown stopping the reactors. The flaw at Fukushima was in emergency power and cooling as well as management. The backup cooling pumps were below the sea wall and in the basements of the buildings so they flooded. With the pumps flooded they could not keep the fuel in the reactors cool. Fukushima also had warnings that the sea wall was not sufficient to protect the facility. They ignored the warnings and did not raise the walls and as such the reactors ended up melting down but remained within the containment buildings. The explosions at Fukushima were related to hydrogen and were not related to reactors going prompt critical. The sister facility to Fukushima had higher walls, pumps above the reactors, and better management who used on-site materials to extend power to the facilities to keep the pumps running after they lost local power.

So yeah outside of Chernobyl and some early test reactors, Nuclear has been shown to be the safest and least polluting form of power generation in history.
dont: Used HDD are not worth the risk/cost as the chance of failure outside of warranty is too high. Maybe: Enterprise SSD's, sometimes you can find low ware SSDs that are cast off from enterprise organizations at reasonable prices, often more so if its used SAS as average consumers need an HBA to utilize the drive. Be cautious as some SSD's are discarded because of firmware bugs that cause early failures.
No. The average American is 1 paycheck away from homelessness and cannot cover a $500 emergency.
This is and has been the endgame of capitalism, and fascism. Economic feudalism, where the many fight in a race to the bottom over the few pennies the wealthy toss for their own amusement.
My mom died with $600 to her name and had to live at my sisters house because that was all she could afford on Social Security.
Keychron Q12 is about the only thing that will tick most of the boxes unless you go with a TKL and macro pad.
That said, I like Keychron for what they are, a good mid cost, mid quality product. They are not the best, they are far from the worst. I have 3 of their boards and a num/macro pad.
I do something the same, I buy last gen or gen before phones used on Swappa and then install Lineage OS so I can have a stable, updated, and efficient phone.
I would say about 9h of screen on time for a Pixel 5 on its original OEM battery is not to bad.
is this house a split level with 3 bed 1 bath upstairs, living/dining/kitchen middle, and finished basement w/ 1 bath downstairs? built in 1950-1970? if so I have the same layout!
i cant even understand what they talk about on that instance. I see arguments about liberals, and conservatives but everything they say about these groups makes no sense at all, and I dont know anyone that holds positions or values.
currently typing on my Dell Precision with a Bluetooth mouse, Bluetooth headset, and discrete NVIDIA graphics. This Precision replaced my XPS where I used the same install of Manjaro.
they wont until the leopard eats their face. They assume they are part of the in-group and will be shocked when they find out that they were never part of the in-group, Trump is the only member of the in-group.
Yes they are and to much proprietary firmware, software, and parts...
