I haven't read in depth about core design on SMRs yet, but at the end of the day it's just a hot rock that makes water into steam and that steam makes a turbine spin making electricity

You're making it sound like they just drop a SMR in a crate and it's ready to go. It's way more involved than that. I love nuclear power. I just think you're being too optimistic

The PWRs although they were sizes of trash cans I worked on. It was pretty easy to throttle power. You just increased or decreased steam demand by turning a giant wheel

You sound like a sales brochure. Now what about the secondary side?

The why is gonna be there isn't anyone to manufacture the critical parts. The who is because the opposition groups have the playbook to delay and eventually shut it down. The NIMBY folks know once the delays start happening by filing injunction after injunction the investors see this as a money pit and back out. It's a tried and true move. All it takes is one lawyer and a willing environmental group

- Maui is on fire
There was videos of the locals handing out supplies and Maui police told them they weren't allowed to because they didn't have permits and it was from up high- Rice at Texas - Game 1
So the Chinamen can eat. They get 2 million appearance fee- What new UT gear are you looking to buy this year?
Pretty disappointed about the embrace the hate thing. I went to check on my order and it was gone. All links to it are dead. Fucking UT cowered down to some idiots.- America's Loneliness Epidemic
Me and my navy buddies get together once a year. The wives are cool with it. We used to do destination travel. Now we fly to San Antonio and go to our buddies million dollar house. We sit there and just bullshit. It's one of the most rewarding trips every year. Life is tough. Life sucks sometimes.- Nebraska vs. Minnesota - 7pm on Fox
New Rhule. Same results- Blastfurnace 2023
Hmmm, not sure. I don't pay much attention on which direction we head in. I mostly care if we land in one piece.- Blastfurnace 2023
- 2023 Tropical Storm and Hurricane thread
I understand the people who cannot evacuate. I also do not understand the people with young children who are unwilling to evacuate. Trying to save your own life when shit goes awry is tough enough. Now try that with a couple of young kids. And then even in the aftermath when there is no electricity and it is just miserable outside.- 2023 Tropical Storm and Hurricane thread
I think a lot of people understand the pet situation and most times. They even tell you bring your pets. But yeah. I mean most people have like 2 dogs. In rural Florida Suanne may have 19 cats. That may become an issue - Maui is on fire
