I remember this, it’s rough. These sort of situations are just something nobody teaches us it seems. Eventually you’re an adult and supposed to have it all figured out until you run into a wall like that

i uh. yeah. a year. a year or two ago i went to an initial eval to get a recommendation for therapy. Doc told me it makes sense to find a spot since i have so much trouble getting tasks started that it impacts my day to day function.

Guess what I didn’t do with that recommendation?

hm. i should book that appointment some time eh

Where’s the “I started half a dozen hobbies and projects and didnt really stick to any of them” character?

Absolutely right, i forgot that was coming.

Ah yeah scratch what i said. Firefox is the ticket

Same on chrome, ublock does it’s thing.

Also duckduckgo on mobile is pretty ok at it, fandom wikis still pop up videos and shit though

Alles gut, danke :D

Ill chek their Mediathek thingy

Longer answer below, but i gotta point this out:

Not having a perfect solution doesn’t mean you’re not allowed to critically discuss the current ones.

Maybe a “good” solution for the specific areas you mention doesn’t currently exist.

Now as to why:
I don’t know the intricacies of the US power grid tbh. Where I am, the main reason why we can’t rely fully on wind and solar yet is because politicians were paid off lobbied for by coal, decades ago, when we could’ve started to shift the whole grid and invest in tech to support solar, wind and water.

Literally cut 120000 jobs in solar alone but “saved important jobs” in coal… 20000.

I’m kinda assuming this delay and ignore tactic also kneecapped the US grid’s development?

Being better than coal, relatively, does not make nuclear “good”.

Oh i didn’t even know about that. Do you have a link handy?

Also upon looking it up a bit, even if we recycle some, it seems like a potentially very nasty process aaaand we still end up with a lot of waste.

I had been doubting my scepticism lately but nuclear simply isn’t the silver bullet it’s getting peddled as.

It’s dangerous to umlaut alone.

Take this: ö

Then you’re not working out the butt.

Thats the point. Nuclear makes energy in a safe and clean way, but you can’t just exclude the waste problem from the discussion or dismiss it as “we’ll figure it out” as its so often done in this conversation.

Sure we are reusing some of it nowadays, but we still have tons globally that need to go somewhere
