Olena Gnes, a woman in a bomb shelter with other women and children, on Fox. Very moving. Where are all of the drugees and Nazis? Still waiting to see those people.

Nukes are extremely safe until they aren't. Human error and climate is an ongoing threat. Battery technology is advancing so fast to already become a player in more applications that just EV's. Enphase, Solar Edge and STEM are examples of companies addressing energy storage issues for commercial use.
No one in the US has died from nuclear power production. Get over it. And today's technologies are orders of magnitude safer than with existing plants. BTW, people talk about running out of fossil fuels. What about running out of lithium? They aren't making any more of it either.
 
“The German government said in a statement Saturday that it has agreed to the supply of 400 German-made rocket propelled grenades to Ukraine via the Netherlands, along with 14 armored personnel carriers. It will also supply 10,000 tonnes of fuel via Poland. Further supplies to Ukraine are currently being considered”

Also looking into how to decouple Russia from SWIFT

Green energy sources while not a bad Idea are not as reliable to sustain the energy needed to handle the load needed and I don't think they ever will be able to. It is not bad for augmentation, but I don't think you can ever generate enough power with them.

How the hell do you get from Germany to Ukraine thru Netherlands?

Bout time they nutted up.
 
Wish we had a president like him. Would argue we haven’t had one with that much will power since Kennedy. Reagan was great as well just don’t know if at his age he could have done it like Zelensky is now. But Kennedy’s handling of the Cuban missile crisis will always leave me wondering what the world would look like today had he not been murdered.

Zelensky is the living embodiment of those legendary stories of allied leaders during WW2
 
Reported by ABC news:

“The new package of $350 million in assistance to Ukraine will include “anti-armor, small arms and various munitions, body armor, and related equipment in support of Ukraine’s front-line defenders facing down Russia’s unprovoked attack," Pentagon spokesman John Kirby said.

It also includes portable surface-to-air missiles (MANPADS) in the Pentagon's inventory, a U.S. official told ABC News.

It's not clear how the equipment will be provided to the Ukrainian military. The U.S. official said they can't speak to logistics or timing, but said, "Time is clearly of the essence, so we expect deliveries to start very soon."

3D printers?

Watch it get to Ukraine in time for Russia to capture. Or, it will be sent to Iran. Not confident in this gesture.

Whether one agrees with the report that Russian casualties are already 3500 there’s no doubt they are behind on their war goal. Kyiv was supposed to have fallen in the first 24 hours and here we are almost 72 hours later and it’s still standing. This will be Putins Afghanistan x10 imo. He may win the battle but the war will never end for the Ukrainians.

Get over what? This is also completely false. Any power generation and distribution is not without risk of death.

Never once said the lithium supply is unlimited. So the plutonium supply is unlimited? Good to know.

The good news is plutonium has a half-life of 88 years.
 
Yeah, take the completely random gay bashing to the political thread. That's not what this thread exists for. Contribute to the thread, don't be an asshole.
I've been contributing alot...I don't know what him having to be gay has to do with anything, are you saying gay people cant be masculine...sounds stereotypically bigoted. I know humor is forbidden unless approved for you. If it makes you feel better, I can post the same picture of that mayor along with one of Trudeau being terrified of trucks honking their horn. Does that trigger you too?

Of course every industry will have deaths, but your link shows how safe nuclear energy is when all precautions are taken.

Since Chernobyl in 1986 that list only shows 5 people dying from nuclear energy production. 41 died from medical radiation incidents.

Over 300 US coal miners have died since then(a lot more world wide). From 2008 to 2017 1,566 oil and gas workers in the US died.
 
Putin's public statements have been cringeworthy. Does he really believe anyone is going to find him calling the Ukrainian Govt Nazis to be credible? Even his own Russian population won't believe that, let alone the entire world.

I am starting to seriously consider that Putin has had a mental breakdown? Just as I type this I heard somebody on television echo exactly my thoughts on Putin. He seems irrational at best. His threats of nukes have serious downrange consequences. I predict he will be dead in less than 2 years and maybe he's hearing the footsteps.
Yes they will find it credible bc it’s been pushed for 10 years. Not to mention that the azov militia is neo nazi 100%

A few hundred died in the great freeze in Texas in 2001 when wind turbins and natural gas lines froze. You don't have that problem with nuclear plants either.

I'm into viewing augmentation of things other than energy.

Get over fear-mongering about nuke power with "safe till it's not safe". Didn't know about the RI guy nearly 50 years ago. Thanks. And you go on about batteries when their raw materials' supply is in question also. I don't about plutonium supply, but I'd doubt it's unlimited also.

It kind of demonstrates that no one really believes AOCs line that the world ends in 10 years. Like they did not believe Al Gore who said we passed the threshold years ago. If they did, they would have run to nuclear years ago.

This is why climate change fear is just a bumper sticker/meme and not a real debate.

Liberals have been saying that crap since the 50's or there abouts. It is almost every 10 years, and they wonder why no one believes the "science".
