LNP are pushing a failing power source of nuclear.
The nuclear renaissance of the late-2000s was a bust due to the Fukushima disaster and catastrophic cost overruns with reactor projects. The latest renaissance is heading the same way, i.e. nowhere. Nuclear power went backwards last year.
There were five reactor start-ups and five permanent closures in 2023 with a net loss of 1.7 gigawatts (GW) of capacity. There were just six reactor construction starts in 2023, five of them in China.
Due to the ageing of the reactor fleet, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) anticipates the closure of 10 reactors (10 GW) per year from 2018 to 2050.
What static site hosts do y'all use?
Seems like pages.sr.ht won't let me embed Sketchfab models on my blog due to its "no loading external resources" restriction, and I would like to move my blog/wiki to one that is slightly less principled on how the web should be run. Just slightly though.
Don't get me wrong, I totally get why that was done, but I really just want this little model to show up on my little blog. What's the point of hypertext if you don't hyper the text?
A new study by Ember, an energy think tank, has revealed that half of the world’s economies have already crossed the peak of power generation from fossil fuels. This means they have not increased their fossil fuel power output for at least five years since reaching their highest level.

A spokesman says Israel is "still at war... still completing efforts to take full control of Israeli territory and communities from #Hamas " #IDF
The Coalition opposition touts nuclear energy as a potential solution for Australia’s transition to net-zero emissions, but it remains too expensive and slow compared to renewables to be a viable addition to the energy mix any time soon.
Die #CDU relauncht! Also zumindest wenn es um das Corporate Design geht... nur, und das halte ich fuer alles andere als ueberraschend, geht die ganze Nummer komplett nach hinten los.
Der geschaetzte Thomas Knuewer fasst die Story offenbarend und sueffisant zusammen... Es ist so herrlich 😂

In diesem Zusammenhang mal die Frage: Hat bei den Beteiligten und dem Vorstand dieser #cdu mal irgendwas von der #re:publica gehört, gelesen oder kennt jemand der davon gehört hat?

I went to #Re-PC yesterday (if you're not from the #Seattle area, it's essentially nerd thrift shop in a small warehouse packed to the brim with used/recycled electronics) and I saw this massive touchscreen display. I'd guess 7' x 3'-ish. They had a gameboy emulator up and I played some Tetris on it with touch controls.
You guys, I have absolutely no need for such a device, but I can't stop thinking about it. Thank goodness I don't have $500 to drop on some random nonsense, because if I had a ton of a disposable income, I might very well do it.
