but they do use tallow ?

Reading people say "I lost it when..." really made me question my humanity. Why does this do nothing for me and someone else gets to enjoy it. I am starting to think nobody really laughs at it. We've culturally renforced the notion with one another that these hacks are funny because the open bigotry on tv made some people comfy.

I doubt they will go to the expense of building such a rocket. The racket of 15 launches to replace 1 looks like a more lucaritive swindle.

We need to step back from the SciFi and appreciate the mundane.

Yeah nobody is really proposing launching them in the atmosphere. I hope lol

And I further agree the thing is a pointless waste. Robots with a few solar panels and RTGs do the job. Sending people into space has been an aerospace scam since the 70s.

Doubt it would really. We've already had nuclear submarines, aircraft carriers and Arctic icebreakers, which are just niche use cases that justify the cost of the nuclear bit.

The bourgeois aren't afraid of new technologies. As long as they control infrastructure and policy, their fossil fuel rents are secure and will seize the opportunity for new rents. They permitted states to spend several billion on nuclear R&D as a centralised rentier-friendly fallback for the inevitable drop in fossil fuel resource quality. Unless we're talking about urban myths like cold fusion or perpetual motion, several approaches and technologies have been exhaustively attempted. Items like MSRs or hybrid fusion, which were previously mothballed, are being revisited worldwide.

Renewables have outpaced nuclear in the meantime when it comes to the sole goal of curtailing fossil fuel demand. No steam islands, low O&M, and turnaround time short enough for a learning effect to drive down costs. China are breaking emissions records year on year because of the ability to scale up solar in a fraction of the time of new nuclear builds. It's not technology suppression; there is just no technology that adequately displaces fossil fuels in a time frame that actually matters. Only curtailing demand with sane socialist planning.

That's enough bluesky for a lifetime

I once saw a third hand account that Usians literally applauded after the trailer. Please read a book or something.

So inconsiderate. Calls themselves a communist smdh

They are numb to all that. They need something more invasive and perverse. Porn is bad kids.

Just build them into the toilets everywhere.

He should come into every room with ride of the valkyries playing.
