stop you’re making this upcoming shitshow seem too cool and exciting

fuck they stole my name

if this was Hearts of Iron 4 the U.S. would just have one of those little green factories on each production line

i just hiked to the top of a mountain and curled up in a cozy rock

it was like 60 something up there and breezy but hot when i came back down

Boeing trying to claim another victim i see

also i’m not a fan of those space-x suits they look kind of cheap. like latex bodysuits or something

owl is wise

the Church is trying to win back the anime pfp tradcaths

need more ks

yeah going to start referring to that as the d slur

thanks. lemmy is really weird with copy/paste for some reason

all u really need anyways is weather.gov (fixed link)

i keep seeing messages for individuals with supplies to stay away because they are disrupting the large scale efforts. so not sure what to believe.

i know firsthand that there are FEMA staging areas and such in the Piedmont.

i had a more coffee cup shaped glass cup i used only for earl grey (the only tea i like). it was my approximation of a Picard cup so i could say the thing

partner accidentally dropped it a few mos ago maybe i’ll have to track this one down

wonder if the propaganda value is priced in?

looks like the refined version of this map was actually made by a worldbuilder integrating every conspiracy into one for a real world fantasy setting

it’s actually really cool i want to do a steampunk TTRPG there

is that alt-text or just the AI image prompt or both?

ahh i guess there will be more unhinged fetish-fueled slur filled screeds

one of the most common anti-nuclear arguments these days is basically against conventional water cooled reactors which need a large supply of water (basically a small lake or pond) to provide reliable cooling to the reactors. (this is what those big “smoke stacks” are for) this was made worse recently when europe had a drought and the rivers there were drying up and France had to shut down reactors due to the risk of running out of coolant water

molten salt reactors don’t require water for coolant. the molten salt is the coolant (and fuel!) itself, since these reactors run hotter overall. thus they can be built anywhere as long as you pair them with a chemical plant that can produce additional salt when needed (which is very minimal compared to water needs)

as for the meltdown fears, these reactors can’t create a steam explosion or other issues relating to water cooled reactors. if they risk meltdown, you simply cut external power and the molten salt starts to solidify which ends the reaction on it’s own. water reactors need power (either external or from the reactor) to run pumps to keep them cool. molten salt needs power simply to not shut down.

(i just typed this off the top of my head and if you need to i can find some more detailed sources and info since i may have some things wrong)
