Hi there, I'm posting a lot about nuclear energy, but I can branch out to:

  • Politics: I'm an 'orthodox' marxist. I'll probably use https://socialis.me/@Emil for those posts.
  • Esperantisto.
  • Environment: you know my pro-nuclear stance, but did you know I'm an ecomodernist?
  • Democracy: Sortition is the way to go.
  • Economy: abolish the money economy and replace it by cybernetic communism, using labourtime as our measurement for planning.

The central committee of IDA made the following statement in a press release yesterday:

“In light of the technological development, it is IDA's opinion that the Danish Parliament's decision from 1985 not to use nuclear power in public energy planning should be changed, so that Denmark has an open approach to offering the most efficient fossil-free energy mix in the future.”

IDA is one of Denmark's largest trade unions, representing over 170,000 members within STEM.

Energy economist Björn Peters speaks with ESNA about an article in Cicero, The German’s Greens Scandal on the Nuclear Phase Out, and his insights into the matter, published on his own website. Björn Peters is a German physicist and energy economist, as well as the co-founder and CFO of the nuclear-energy startup, Dual Fluid Energy.

Nine months ago, Russell Gold wrote a story about what he called the Great Sweetwater Blade Boneyard. It was about a company that promised it would recycle wind turbine blades, but … didn’t. Speaking of promises, the head of Global Fiberglass, the company was paid to collect and recycle these blades (which it didn’t) told me: “If you come back nine months from now, you will not see the material.”

He went back after nine months. Guess what? The blades were still there.

Next week there's the State of the Nuclear Energy Industry. You can watch this online!

Last year has seen a lot of forward momentum for nuclear energy, and signals for what's to come. Make sure you're tuned in on May 14.

“I have to say I changed my mind” Michael Douglas starred in The China Syndrome and was rabidly anti-nuclear for 40 years, admits that nuclear is a part of the way to solve climate change.

Climate change is a problem the world chose to have because nuclear power was 'scary'.

This map shows where Russia is currently attacking GPS signals in the EU.

According to this brilliantly researched article from Peter Møller, Russia has a classified weapons system called Tobol, which is jamming GPS satellites from a base in Kaliningrad.

By using photos and articles from before the war, he has managed to piece together a surprisingly clear picture of what the Russians are doing.

(In Danish but translating it is absolutely worth it.)

@randahl What surprises me is why the West isn't doing the same. Tit for tat. In fact, the West could easily disable their GLONASS network for huge swaths along the border.

@collectifission@greennuclear.online avatar

@randahl True, but it would hugely help against the drones attacking Ukraine.

If you ever wonder why nuclear energy is so expensive to build in the US, which fueled the myth that it is expensive everywhere via the numbers by Lazard which base themselves on the US market, just take a look at this graph.

@collectifission@greennuclear.online avatar

@Emil Of course, the work only just begins. Decades of dependence on Russian nuclear fuel has decimated Western industry on this. The ban makes room for Western nuclear fuel companies to exist, especially American ones. It'll take around a decade to build up this industrial infrastructure.

@icanbob
I think this has to do with the fact that:

  1. Thailand is new to nuclear energy.
  2. Seaborg is an unproven startup.
  3. This barge concept hasn't been proven in the West yet.

💙 20 years.
💙 10 countries.
💙 1 enlargement.

On 1 May 2004, the citizens of 🇨🇾 🇨🇿 🇪🇪 🇭🇺 🇱🇻 🇱🇹 🇲🇹 🇵🇱 🇸🇰 🇸🇮 became citizens of the EU.

Since then, we have witnessed growth and prosperity. Real wages have doubled from 2004 to 2023 in these ten countries, while poverty levels have halved.

Our Union has benefitted from more innovations. The free movement of goods, services, capital and people, have brought greater opportunities for people and businesses.

Can someone explain to me the difference in the numbers between @fediverse and @mastodonusercount? They're millions of users apart? Do we have 15+ million users or just barely 9?

Not that it matters hugely, but I find the difference interesting. Can we take any number seriously?

Never thought about this before, but it suddenly strikes me that there's a big parallel between the ridiculous amounts of student debts in the US (or their more general credit card debt culture) and financing the building of nuclear power plants. In the case of Hinkley Point C financing itself makes up 2/3 of all costs!

We need to fix financing across the board if we're to achieve a more equal, just, and clean society and environment.

Really? Tell us more. I never ever heard these arguments before. I also never ever refuted them a thousand times already. Please, tell us, as we never heard these very original takes!

FTR, the US501(c)(3) for #Mastodon was already planned for quite some time, the non-profit status in Germany being revoked doesn't seem to be directly related to that.

"Set up a US non-profit branch (501(c)(3)) with a board of governors to become eligible for larger grants from US-based donors and allow US donors to make their contributions tax-deductible."

From the 2022 annual report, page 12, created 29. Sep 2023, available at https://joinmastodon.org/reports/Mastodon%20Annual%20Report%202022.pdf

A recent investigation has revealed that the final steps in phasing out nuclear power in Germany were partly based on false information. And doesn’t look like it was a mistake, but a deliberate rewriting of what was originally accurate information. The ministry denies everything. A quick summary of what we know.
