Uranium isn't the only possible fuel. It's just the one we've been using (because it's the one that lets you make nuclear weapons).

Nuclear power is actually safer than almost everything, period. Even with the major accidents. Yes, even renewables and other "green" energy.

It's not so much advocating this situation as it is pointing out that it's the system we're living under. So you have an alternative to it?

If public opinion is the problem then the correct thing to do is change public opinion, not throw up your hands and go "nothing can be done, we just have to keep splitting up these families and keeping them in concentration camps". How the hell did we get to the point where that seems inevitable?

It's not a fun topic but we talked about it a lot during the Trump years.

The only response the Democratic Party has to criticism, for years now, is "what are you going to do about it, vote Republican?"

I wish this article would have delved into the details of the system because it's even more incoherent and insane than you think.

Google also lost a court case and had this system forced onto them by the law. I believe it would literally take a change in the dmca (ideally just repeal it or strip all the anti consumer bs out of it) for them to be allowed to do anything different.

Yeah the common factor in all their games having fucked up communities is them.

Riot Games is incredibly good at generating asshole players and incredibly bad at doing anything about them. I've never had players on my own team intentionally try to throw the game as hard as i had in Riot's games. It's not only the low level players, either.

He could end it tomorrow but he won't.

(Feel free to drag me if i'm wrong but i feel safe in that prediction.)
