Oh shit. Time for a sneaky edit

In case it wasn’t obvious, I was trying for this

Most hosted AI image generators didn’t wanna make this, so I had to use grok, which is shitty.

Copilot keeps telling me it’s not allowed to generate that kind of content 😏

Wealthy people would have much better access to trivial / cosmetic medical procedures… Sure… I’ll grant that

He’s probably right wrt the USA needing our exports, as much as it sucks for us.

Maybe now we’ll actually diversify our industries and seek out new buyers.
Probably not though, since PP is gonna be in charge and that man baby only wants to double down on selling oil to the USA, and thats the entire extent of his economic plan. And by that I mean he is gonna throw money at oil companies and hope it magically turns into more sales to the USA.
What’s the opposite of diversify?

As a millennial I’ma have to just come out and say it:

The way we’re all pilling on gen-z and saying they’re all dumb for this… It’s giving Boomer. Not a good look.

Even assuming this was really posted by a gen-z, we can still do our own thing while they make whatever the new cool thing is. We don’t have to try to be cool forever. We’re old now, folks, it’s ok

To the extent of “what does calling out anyone for anything lead to an interesting nuanced discussion” so should we ban calling people out?

Ultimately it’s ambiguous and we need to draw a line in the sand somewhere, but it’s reasonable for people to disagree where to draw that line.

Wait, what criticism?
I’ve never heard anything bad about it, I just never got around to reading it (it’s not really my jam).

I don’t think I’ve ever read it, tbh… But growing up in Atlantic Canada, she is inescapable.

I’ma be honest, the little I know of black metal fashion comes from Vegan Black Metal Chef, but as always, once I got an idea in my head I couldn’t let go of it.

That and snyder.
And of course, no conflict of interest there at all

Have you seen what the supreme Court justices that he appointed have been doing?

They make a big stink about old supreme courts overreaching, but seem to go out of their way to grab power for themselves and their buddies 🤔

It’s just what I wanted! How did you know??? 🥰

I never made it as a wise man

What a loss 😏

Sideshow Bob is way too smart to be compared to trump

I agree it’s not the ideal solution, but it’s better than most solutions we have, depending on location.

Rooftop solar doesn’t only need to be on residential buildings, it can also be on industrial and commercial buildings, which take a significant land area.

One last benefit of most renewable energy that is related to its distributed nature: it’s easy to slowly roll out update and replacements. If a new tech emerges you can quickly change your rollout plan to use the new tech, and replace the old tech a little bit at a time, without any energy disruption.
With mega-projects like nuclear reactors, you can’t really change direction mid-construction, and you can’t just replace the reactors as new tech comes online, because each reactor is a huge part of the energy supply and each one costs a fortune.

Also, according to the doc you shared of land-use, in-store wind power is nearly the same as nuclear, since the ecology between the windmills isn’t destroyed.

So while I agree that nuclear absolutely has a place, and that renewables have some undesirable ecological repercussions, they’re still generally an excellent solution.

The elephant in the room, though, is that all the renewable solutions I mentioned will require energy storage, to handle demand variation and production variation. The most reliable and economically feasible energy storage is pumped hydro, which will have a similar land usage to hydro power. On the upside, although it has a significant impact, it does not make the land ecological unviable, it just changes what ecosystem will thrive there - so sites must be chosen with care.
