This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Posting this again because some people don't realize just how expensive nuclear really is.

As fossil burning has been left behind and there isn't enough storage for renewable energy, nuclear is our best option currently.
It's way cheaper to build storage than new nuclear.
You seem to think nuclear power is cheap. It is not. Renewable energy with storage is much cheaper.
