Probably unwilling to now that China has one.

Hmm, that gives you a BMI of 38.4, which is Obese Class II. I'm sure it's pure muscle in your case, as it always is on the internet, but it would make you one of a very rare breed of people. I'm surprised you have time to post such a lengthy comment between work-outs.

I would add that the cabin crew should make sure there is decent ventilation during boarding. Some of them like to let the CO2 build to keep the passengers docile and half asleep.

I wouldn't fly on an airline that got rid of recline in economy, at least not long haul.

Papers for a service animal wouldn't be allowed in Europe, it would be discriminatory. You don't need papers for a wheelchair.

Or North Korea. They have hypersonic weapons too, and I'm sure would be happy to sell them to Iran.

Thanks. Surprising it gets such good reception of relatively weak signals.

Have you got any sources that aren't the nuclear industry propaganda arm or the people building this thing?

Have you used Word? There are a lot of options that aren't in Notepad, and which don't fit into Notepad's menus easily.

Hell of a selling point for a lot of US companies.

Everything US based is becoming a target.

Remind me, didn't Trump say something about not doing exactly what he is doing now?

What is the full cost, including subsidies? You will find that it is quite high.

Europe's energy market is distorted by fossil fuels. The more renewables come online, the cheaper it gets.

It's modded troll because there are some really big nuclear fans around here. MacMann at least seems to be getting paid, or was until he lost all his karma and made a new account.

The economy of scale doesn't work, because the cost per reactor increases. They each need a self contained cooling system, for example. You also increase the work needed to fuel and maintain and monitor them all. Your containment building needs to be bigger to accommodate all the extra, duplicate equipment. Any small savings from serial production of reactors, and we are only talking small numbers of the things anyway, will be more than offset.

It's an issue, but not really anything to do with solar as the headline claims. It's just the usual pollution issue due to developed nations shipping their used batteries to Africa for "disposal", where they get used for this and quickly die.

There are of course plenty of other pollution issues in those places, for the same reasons.

Check the author. He writes a lot of crap on behalf of neoliberals, like about how it's okay for workers to die to get maimed in Bangladesh because that gives the factory owner a competitive edge in the free market.

Given that the title is misleading, the issue being lead acid batteries rather than solar, and that LFP batteries out of China are now cheaper per Wh than most lead acid ones, we can safely assume this is just an anti-environmental shill piece that he is hoping will boost fossil fuel usage for his paymasters.
