... has found a good way and place to deal with their nuclear waste.

The supremacy clause applies to LAWS. Congress declined to enact such a law.

Yes, it belongs to Congress, not the President. Executive orders are literally orders given by the President to the executive branch of the federal government.

So the effectiveness of an executive order is very questionable in this case. If a state passes a law, what's the executive order going to do? Send the Army to invade? What could go wrong?

... other than the chinese. MKBHDs review of the Xiaomi SU7 is a real eye opener. If this really is the new bar for cars and not just China trying to get some stop on deflation. then it's certainly not just the US car industry that is in deep trouble.

This is a real problem. Imagine an AI computer virus swarm, with "Brain Bug" leader AIs building and releasing swarms of tailor-made virii to achieve certain hacking goals at a pace no human team of network admins can keep track of.

Hard cryptographic human-controlled Ident/Auth/Auth, encryption and signage is very quickly going to become a real necessity.

... in font form. ... Errm, ... WTF?!??

IMHO TNR and Calibri are both shite, but I can see why one would want to go back to a decades old standerd.
As for calling Calibri "woke" - is this Rubio guy on crack?

Nuclear Fission isn't cost effective ... _unless_ you price in the full eco-balance of electricity production. Then the numbers look significantly different and fission could just be a real thing once again. At least until renewables and energy storage have gained significant portions of the energy mix.

The key part is pricing in the eco-balance of electricity and all other forms of energy and processed goods before doing anything else, like rebuilding fission. Until you do that, ecological damage will always be an unpriced externality and the market price will never reflect the real damage done and your math on fission will always come up short. Example: Meat and Smartphones would be roughly 4x in cost of what they cost today if the eco-balance were priced in correctly. And that's all we would need to do to fix our environmental problems in record speed.

US college is a joke, especially to young men. Raw deals left, right and center. You're more likely to get your life ruined by a guilty-until-proven-innocent sexual harassment accusation than finding a mate "for life" that isn't saddled with obscene amounts of debt like you are, ready to bail out once you've paid through the nose for both of you.

US colleges now trying to be "places of connection" for young men has to be the biggest joke of todays age of misandry and man-bashing.

If I were a young man in the US, college would be the very last place I'd be looking for connection these days. And for just about everything else - highly specialized degrees in engineering, CompSci, physics, chemistry and such aside - I'd steer just as clear from US colleges. As a regular young guy without huge amounts of money to burn you're way better off learning and working a trade than going to college these days.

Laughably overpriced US colleges are going the way of the Dodo, and they're feeling it. That's what this recent change of mind is all about, nothing more.

we can't plan an economy nor can we control it. control is an illusion, top down dictatorships don't work, no matter how the fascists pretend they do, same for government, when it's small, local and democratic, fine but big and autocratic is bad, just look at Trump, Putin and all the rest of the murderous tyrants. Money is power and power corrupts, people clearly cannot be trusted with power.

people don't want want forced work requirements, yet just look around at the current exploitive 'economy', yes boss, no boss, right away boss, this is indentured servitude and we live in a corporatocracy

we already have what we fear but lies keep people from seeing reality

... and that somebody as omnipresent as an LLM-bot would influence those way more effectively than a regular human should be of no big surprise.

The solution is easy and obvious. Pay people fairly. Tax people fairly. Pay should be in ownership and profit sharing. Taxes should be paid on accumulate capital and net worth. Get rid of corporations. Oh, and nationalize the entire legal and medical 'industries', our health and the law should never be for sale to the highest bidder, nor are they enterprise in any way. Do away with classism and class discrimination by guaranteeing fair and equal access to capital. Stop letting the rich charge the rest of us usurious interest rates and stop letting them exploit us.

We can't have capitalism when 10% of people own 90% of all the capital because that only leaves 10% of all capital for the 90% of the rest of us. It's not enough capital, we are all poor as in undercapitalized. This is why everything is broken.

Just what US for-profit college needs. Great.

... complete retard in that way.

German carmakers today are precisely at where US car-makers where in the mid to late 60ies: aloof, disconnected and arrogant, relying to much on brand-recognition to pull off non-sense like planned obsolescence or subscriptions for your heated seats.
