People pay for a custom smartphone client to the Lemmyverse.

The conclusion is brain dead. Can anyone even confirm that SpaceX is losing more satellites than they're launching?

So it is only a matter of time until you are fed up with it.

That didn't happen with Boost for Reddit, and it's our choice of preference to choose Boost for Lemmy.

I will play devil's advocate and argue that it's just more convenient the same way a urinal is convenient. Not sitting down saves time. That's all.

Come to Singapore, we have the Indian culture (among others), and we're the diametric opposite of India where it comes to safety in all aspects. 😉

Nuclear works, and it works well enough that operators retire reactors because of age, not because of mishap or cost.

You don't even provide facts and then you say you have data based facts.

Sounds like dogma to me.

LOL and nuclear power is known to be extremely cheap per kwh when it gets up and running. It doesn't take exorbitant electricity prices to recoup the cost of building the facility in reasonable time.

The real trouble comes from political activism that serves to drum up outrage and popular dissatisfaction with nuclear power, which is what actually makes nuclear power unprofitable because of government overreach.

And besides, nuclear is a multinational effort, just like defence. You don't need that industry in your borders, you just need a bigger ally with more resources and scale to build that industry for you. And some part of nuclear power is for military purposes anyway, so you know the countries with the requisite industries already.

Besides, all technology needs investment. Solar power sucked initially and had to ramp. If you don't give a chance for nuclear power to get good, then you just made a self-fulfilling prophecy. A naysayer that would make you.

If they were to put all that money into actual use they would basically break the economy and a lot of it would evaporate.

This proves that there isn't a hoard after all, and it's all just wishful thinking that they could sell those imaginary shares all at once to get that money.

And the clue is in urgent repair. It is incompetence that lead to increased cost, and fines should pay for the consequences of the incompetence, not raising taxes.

It's not either/or, it's in conjunction with, and it just so happens that renewable-only isn't sufficient and has failed to scale enough to combat climate change.
