Your Nazi pals are collapsing on all fronts, McCarthyite cocksucking trash.

Even Fox News hailed Venezuela's economy before Obama decided it had to be destroyed to protect the petrodollar.

because they're a dictatorship

Even a non-dictator would have had Juan Guido shot for treason. Instead Maduro (checks notes) gave him a security detail to keep him safe from mobs. Some "dictator".

But the reason Venezuela is hurting so much is because it's a small country and they were literally getting all of their electricity from a huge dam.

Noooo, because their economy has been trashed by bipartisan sanctions from Washington. They also have a great climate for agriculture but can't compete against dumped crops from the United States subsidized below the cost of production.

Awwww ... aren't Orange Daddy's tariffs hurting you enough?

It is possible, China and several European countries are doing it as we speak by transitioning to BEVs and retiring obsolete ICE vehicles. The only place where eliminating fossil fuels is a physical impossibility is by the laws of physics in whatever parallel Lala universe you are posting from

If land use is a problem then how seriously has Brazil considered nuclear power?

You say that but then complain about this:

Fine, just don't make me subsidize your virtue signalling with government mandates requiring the utility to buy excess energy production.

Nuclear power wouldn't exist without gargantuan subsidies forced out of the pocket of taxpayers. Proving once again that nuclear is an even more unserious religion than Scientology.

Cutting down actually green plant life to make room for so-called "green" energy is not good for the environment.

Good thing that's totally unnecessary then. Existing roofs, parking lots and roads have more than enough space for solar. Wind can be installed in existing farms.

I'm just not a fan of solar panels paving over fertile land.

Solar panels over crops that don't need a combine or full sun are good for both the crops and the panels. The shade is good for the crops and the evaporation cools the panels, improving their performance.

As the summary mentions, Nintendo retains ownership of their dev kits.

Sounds like the corporateganda that you aren't buying a copy of a movie or a game but merely a "license". Just because they claim it doesn't make it true.

Reality has a well known anti-nuclear bias. Too costly, too unreliable, too costly, takes too long to build, too costly, too dangerous, too costly, and too unreliable.

And if I forgot, it's way too costly to possibly be justified? And that your waste will be a problem literally until the sun goes nova?

How many countries have deep decarbonized their grids with just solar and wind?

How much are you ignoring the many decades long head start and many trillions put into nuclear? But to answer your Concern, Germany is on track to do just that with an ever increasing majority of their power coming from renewables.

Nuclear power was still an option after Fukushima.

We've been over this. It only took one big disaster to nuke the case for nuclear power, and you've had two. And again nothing is more reliably unreliable than your radioactive water heaters, which go down for months or even years for maintenance and refueling. Nuclear is an even more deeply unserious religion than Scientology.

Nuclear energy does not produce CO2 emissions, by that metric it is clean.

A lot of carbon is emitted in the production of concrete, and nuclear uses gargantuan amounts of the stuff for cooling towers, ponds, and underground bunkers to store your forever toxic waste.

Nuclear waste is also a largely solved problem, it is recyclable.

It's cheaper to mine new uranium, which gets to what kills nuclear power: cost. Nuke fans love France but the country uses the same bunkers as everyone else to store vast majority of their waste. Which will remain a hazard until the sun goes nova, as it will be forever toxic after it has ceased to be radioactive.

Immortality through organ transplants? So that's why Trump was throwing a tantrum over not being invited. It must be seriously creepy and downright traumatic to be a translator for these people.

From my point of view as a non US American, this is just another four years the rest of the world has gotten to put the US even farther behind it in the rear view mirror on the road to next generation energy generation and transportation tech than the US already was. This is all about prolonging the agony of shedding the legacy industrial burden of the US than it is bringing industrial production back to the US and forging a path into the future of technology. These old moss backed conservatives with their longing to return to the 1950s will be remembered as the people who lost the US it's technological lead.

Not the Japanese ones.

... and here I thought that shooting himself in the foot by cracking down on mail-in ballots was enough foot-shooting for the Orange Slug Emperor for the time being, then this nugget popped up. Fun fact: Red states lead the rest of the US US in solar and wind power production. Specifically: Iowa, South Dakota, and Kansas.

Ukrainian lines are collapsing and Russia gained 11 kilometers in a single day. FAFO, McCarthyite cocksucking stalker.

Because no one has a doctorate in every subject under the sun to know what they're getting themselves into you libertarian assclown.
