  • Didn't even have to think about it

    Jump

  • Is there an afterlife or do your final thoughts, fears and regrets just echo for a perceived eternity that is actually seconds, like when a computer hangs during a video and the last played sound repeats over and over and over ..

    Or there's nothing, whatever, sometimes it's fun to imagine terrifying nonsense.

  • My immediate thought is that there probably needs to be more to this plan because that just seems like shoving your head in the sand but I going to assume there's more to it and will RTFM first. Thanks again for the info!

  • 1.4 GW: Huge battery storage at former Grohnde nuclear power plant

  • The debris still needs to be hauled, crushed etc, you could push use renewable electricity to do most of it. Reuse insitu would be significantly less energy intensive than recycle, it's higher up the hierarchy for a reason.

    Jump

  • Yeah people always seem to get hung up on pictures of coal fired plants with no smoke coming out of the stacks but heaps of steam coming out of the cooling towers. Not that coal generation should be defended in any way.

    For these they totally wouldnt be wasting a huge amount of energy knocking down and hauling away two massive concrete towers. I wonder if anyone did the math on how long the batteries would need to be in operation to offset the carbon from that demolition.

    That said, I have no idea if there's even any way to utilise them, it's a nice thought though.

  • Can the reuse the nuclear cooling towers to optimise those batteries?

  • What is the state of the art, medically soeaking, in terms of quitting smoking?

    Jump

  • It does have some side effects and isn't necessarily for everybody , but it definitely does what it says on the tin. You basically set a quit date for some weeks into the future and then smoke your brains out til then. The drug breaks the reward pathway so you start to find after a week or two that every cigarette does nothing and tastes bad, and you end up cutting back naturally. The course lasts for long enough to break the habit and then after that the will power to not go back is significantly easier. I believe there are some issues for people with mental health concerns due to the reward pathway fuckery, but your doctor should be able to advise when they are prescribing.

  • I tried cold turkey a few times with no success. Patches gave me funky dreams but didn't really stop the urges and ultimately were unsuccessful. I found vapes made it harder for me to breath than cigarettes so they felt like a step backwards. I tried Champix and quit for a year or two, but then picked it back up, then tried it again a few years later and it worked a treat. Coming up on 5 years with no cigarettes.

    Jump

  • Could you provide a good book or website that outlines the plan to migrate a modern capitalist country to whatever it is youre proposing? It would probably help if you also had some information about what you think the ideal alternative is.

  • Sooo .. no plan then?

  • Router firmware is the most underrated form of tech liberation most people ignore

    Jump

  • Yeah, they would never bother sniffing packets client side. But given most people tend to use their home router as their main network device rather than having it manage a DMZ and provide a gateway for a firewall protected network, compromising your router would be a good way to gain access to your devices. An ISP is probably unlikely to have any interest in doing that, 3rd parties on the other hand might be more interested (law enforcement, criminal groups, law enforcement connected hate groups ..). Given law enforcement might want compromised routers then they might be interested in forcing ISPs to comply.

  • Expecting driverless taxis to respect bike lanes “too high a bar” – because customers want to be dropped off in them, autonomous vehicle firm Waymo tells cyclists

    Jump

  • That's fine because humans can be held responsible for their actions. Who is held responsible when a waymo kills 6 people in a peloton or drags some poor guy who was just on his way to work for 6 blocks? Will the company receive a mostly inconsequential fine and carry on with their fuckery?

  • Anyone else tired of guessing at how to make life better for a majority of people like its your personal life mission or something?

    Jump

  • It is definitely a group project .. one or two people doing all the work and two to four other with varying levels of input including but not limited to: the bare minimum; ignoring all requests for input and turning up on presentation day assuming everyone else did the work and ready to accept full marks for the groups efforts; and my favourite, actively sabotaging group consensus to push for their own agenda.
