Nah renewables are the best we've got

kaffiene , vor 9 Tagen

Yeah that really convinces me. I'm stupid so ill switch to your point of view

Overproduction is cheaper than batteries

kaffiene , vor 9 Tagen

Has this been demonstrated to last as long as the waste is radioactive?

kaffiene , vor 9 Tagen

The wind is always blowing somewhere and overproduction is cheaper than batteries

kaffiene , vor 9 Tagen

Like every other nuclear power plant ever built

Curious to hear you say this. I live in NZ and cyanide waste is always raised as an objection to gold mining.

Pumped hydro? Or one of the many other non battery storage options, or just over production

kaffiene , vor 9 Tagen

No, you're right. It's not an option for everyone. Which is why I mentioned that there are many other solutions which are similar and over production which is simpler and cheaper

Wind is always blowing somewhere

kaffiene , vor 9 Tagen

What? You don't have Google? Options I know of (other than batteries and pumped hydro) :
Compressed Air Energy Storage, Thermal Energy Storage,, Fly wheels, Hydrogen, Supercapacitors,
Gravitational Storage

Are you proposing that the sun may not shine and the wind not blow anywhere at all for months?

kaffiene , vor 9 Tagen

I know. There are many solutions to this

kaffiene , vor 8 Tagen

Correct. That's why I enumerate a bunch itf other options for the other guy who said the same thing.

Given you're making up things I never said I can only imagine what you're respinding to? Where did a massive lake of molten salt under every city come from?

South Australia implemented a 100mw battery for their power system in 2016

"demonstrated"

Or convert excess to hydrogen and provide resilience, or have arrangements for industry to consume the excess. Or ramp down your generation at those times. Or shift excess to neighbouring grids.

I'm all for keeping existing nuclear infrastructure but building new nuclear is mad.

Fuck people who make generalisations

kaffiene , vor 17 Tagen

I agree with the first part, not the second. All those black kids who end up in the military because of poverty are not all evil.
But you're right about the system so work to change that rather than damning a whole class of people.

You don't use much software, huh?

kaffiene , vor 20 Tagen

I use Krita a lot and I like it. I also use Gimp. Many people do. That fact that you don't like it is not an argument against it

kaffiene , vor 19 Tagen

Yeah the wheels of change turn slowly for the GIMP =) I'm still a fan, thou

kaffiene , vor 19 Tagen

That's fair - Krita is a more approachable piece of software in many ways

kaffiene , vor einem Monat

There's no contradiction there.

I hate Fox but they have a point. Preaching about climate change (good) doesn't excuse using a private jet (bad). And obviously the hypocricy makes it worse.
