Bla, bla, bla. Can you do anything but pushing FUD?

It is true. There is more than just reactors to a nuclear industry. Stop lying.

And fission plants definitely aren't cheap.

Especially if you include the unsolved issues such as waste barrels stranded on the beach.

"But but no true Scotsman would put barrels..."

Just shut up.

The problem is that if you do not do an "open" with O_TRUNC on running a command with a ">" redirection in there, you run into a massive host of problems like TOUTOC vulnerabilities. Hence ">file" has only two valid implementations: Illegal syntax or truncate the file to zero length.

There is no time after the command has started running where you could safely allow a CTRL-C that prevents the overwrite.

It has always done that in any version of Unix with a standard shell. You might want to check whether you are suffering from dementia.

That is about as stupid as it gets. I take it you have never heard of TOUTOC vulnerabilities and race conditions in general. No halfway competent engineer will follow your deeply flawed view.

And no, it has NEVER worked like that.

When hast the nuclear mafia not lied about everything being safe and then instead done the cheapest and worst thing they though they could get away with? These people are essentially habitual criminals.

Just some more lies. You people have lied time and again, and have zero credibility left.

They were clearly hoping that at some time the problem would just vanish. Not forever, but until they are dead and cannot be held accountable anymore. And look, that seems to be happening.

Yes. Funny thing is that often repeated lie that nuclear power cannot be insured. It can be and the back-insurers did the calculations back when the question came up. They ended up at something like $5 per kWh, i.e. totally unsustainable economically. The reaction from politics was to put them under strict secrecy. Yes, I have a friend that used to be a risk modeler at a large back-insurer and that knows.

Incidentally, about the same level of self-destructive stupid with gas prices and climate-change not being priced in. True capitalism would have nicely solved these problems. Instead the human race in is entirety got robbed by these assholes.

Yes. It is really the "dumbest option possible". But the nuclear morons associate it with might and power. Which, incidentally is not wrong as the only rational reason to do civilian nuclear at all is access to fissile materials and hence the Bomb. Most politicians and nuclear fans like to lie about this. But here is a statement from Macron that tells it like it is: https://www.lemonde.fr/idees/a...

Essentially he said that the Bomb is impossible without a large civilian nuclear base and a large civilian nuclear base is impossible without the military uses (and financing). Also the reason why the UK builds Hinkley point, which is going to be an economic catastrophe: They need it to maintain their nukes.

Exactly. Nuclear power is singularly unsuitable to do regulation energy for peaks. Incidentally one of the reason why a grid with more than about 70% nuclear will crash regularly. Obviously, this idea is completely outside of what the nuclear cultists can even understand.

With how US food safety is going, they can just start to mix the stuff in there...

Get a few kilograms of that and you have material for a nice number of dirty bombs. And if you are careful, you may not even kill yourself in the process (which typically only happens much later anyways).

Trying to do nuclear power on the cheap does not work. Who would have expected that.

Obviously, the assholes behind this are already gone and will not be held accountable.
