Firefox does allow you to have more granular control

ublock is far more powerful and allows hundreds of blocklists with minimal performance impact (up to like 3M filters, 10M was slow.. logically - but you're gonna have 100k or 500k rules at most usually)

brave.. brave deals with YouTube ads and such but doesn't stop you from going on a newly created/activated domain that would execute funky JS

tldr and you can even not read the rest: safety before returns on investment is better than no return on investment because lack of safety

and to have more stable and safer nukes those paying for it just need to accept the fact that having a plant meeting or exceeding safety requirements is better than a plant being on maintenance half the time

also the radiation of a nuclear plant is lower than that of a coal plant due to the uranium in the coal's ashes - iirc

so if the reactor vessel isn't completely crap along with the other meters of concrete and whatnot there shouldn't be any concerns with radiation

I won't touch proper waste disposal since that's fairly.. you dig a hole far away in a special kind of rock and fill holes in the hole with the sticks and the sticks are in dry ceramic and multiple metal layers and all that is covered in concrete

man I'm tired sorry if this makes no sense

alert worked, it alerted the right people of an out-of-the-norm situation

the automatic shutdown worked, it shut itself down automatically

the alert is not periodical per se, but since it did happen and I can't comment on what happened and why I'll just be happy the alert system worked properly

> The No. 4 reactor was halted at 3:21 p.m., the Osaka-based utility said, adding that there has been no indication of the incident causing environmental contamination. The reactor's cooling function is normal, according to the Nuclear Regulation Authority.

nothing to worry about, plant did what it was supposed to do

the goal is to never have to reach that

there's that cycle of armament and disarmament of which we've mostly seen one high and one starting low and another low now

this is to say and I hope it makes sense

it's to supposedly be good at something you hope you'll never have to do because it's a damn good way of signing your own death certificate

tldr: be good destroying your enemy in theory and hope it works out

that's MAD explained in a really bad way

it's also supposed to be scanned in the postal system many times

something's missing.. delivered in person?

also the website is cancer

they require a smaller number of warheads to cripple a city

so.. it's cheaper and easier

gravity bombs are plenty destructive, along with conventional explosives

but nukes almost guarantee you're going to also kill your targets (see: a hypothetical scenario where you need to kill everyone in your enemy's country, or try) unlike gravity bombs or conventional warheads

so it's better from a logistical perspective to use small medium range nukes along with gliders and the like than risk failing by having your planes fail to deliver your bombs

tldr: more kaboom per volume and you can be far away when that happens..

..it's not like you'll live long anyway

edit:

I know MAD is a thing

just wanted to say that nukes are used instead of conventional warheads - the point of MAD is to never get to the tipping point, however close you may get

thanks for the additional information, nice read

didn't connect the dots, the us can either provide money for anything they want or brains for their reactor designs

that's a good thing, but also a bad thing since sizewell is taking ages to finish

hopefully they'll be able to employ some American company and get both knowledge and expertise to be able to speed up construction

you can replace "American" with any other country that's not directly aligned with China

if you're talking of shitty authoritarian regimes then a logic like theirs works

you quarantine entire cities at a time, push spyware to your citizens and monitor their every move and while you're at it you can keep gathering more information (other than for prosecution and profiling idk for what) and not have to worry about having a working vaccine

or something idk

the more the merrier

or something like that

either way poland can only gain from energy not generated from gas or coal and 6-9GW of nuclear can definitely help

yes but Bethany from accounting needs to run an app her son grabbed from a Chinese website that copies her bookmarks from her computer at home and it needs to be run from a usb key and it needs administrator privileges

I'm exaggerating but until technological literacy is as common as linguistical literacy you're going to have unpredictable scenarios because a ton of exploits rely on human engineering (can't remember the proper term sorry) and not exclusively on the use of exploits in the software (which also boils down to human error)

thanks for pointing it out! :)

smilies can have a great impact on a bad couple of days, thanks pandamuffin1

my hands are not doing all that well so I won't be paragraphing it all, sorry

here's the article

apparently clipboard funkeries went on

Cargo ships carrying grain and other foodstuffs to and from Ukrainian ports must be inspected by teams organized by the four-party Joint Coordination Center (JCC), a group set up under the UN-Turkey brokered deal with Ukraine and Russia that was signed in July amid concerns that the blockage of Ukrainian grain exports was contributing to a global food crisis.

The Ukrainian Foreign Ministry said it had reason to believe the delays were politically motivated and were once again threatening food security for millions of people.

"Russia's actions undermine global food security, in particular in the Global South," the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry statement added. "The inspection delays have already prevented Ukraine from exporting an additional 3 million tons of grain. Ten million people across the world have not received food in time because of Russia's political agenda."

Russia has previously threatened to pull out of the deal, which also gave Moscow guarantees for its own grain and fertilizer exports. The deal is up for renewal next month.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said on October 24 that Moscow has asked the United Nations for data on the destination and end-consumers for Ukrainian grain exports. Lavrov said "corrections" needed to unblock shipments would depend on Russia receiving this information.

UN spokeswoman for the Black Sea Grain Initiative Ismini Palla said urgent steps were needed to relieve the backlog.
