Bring back Sodium batteries and how to make them as well as solar panel production. Probably to Nikola Tesla.

To be a bit more precise whatever the easiest to produce versions of each are not the best ones so they could actually be produced at the tech level at the time.

I'm sure they would still end up creating equivalents of oil Barons etc. but at least it would be based on a cleaner tech and more able to improve from there.

Yea link not working but have me curious if you can get a working one edited or respond.

As a self response I should add that since you asked about legality I'm this what it would take with the existing government structure. I think the chance of there being a full on revolution and government rebuild from the ground up is more likely than the idea above.

Would it work legally? Sure if it got passed as an amendment to the constitution. As currently structured there basically is zero legal argument with that other than another constitutional amendment.

The chance of that happening with the actual political situation in the USA is essentially zero. To be clear it isn't actually zero but I. The same way that your chance of walking out the door and dying by direct meteor strike isn't zero but it isn't worth planning for over a large number of far more likely things to happen.

If that amendment both directly allowed shared ownership of property for things like high rise apartments/condos and for companies to function as management but not owners I do really think it could work. I'm sure companies could abuse that management position of course but still a huge improvement over our current situation.

Just chiming in as a fellow sufferer of Eosinophilic esophagitis. I'm lucky so far at least in that just basic long term antacid treatment has been enough but we haven't figured out triggers.

Vague memories myself but I think I also remember a friend having it and would also be fair to call it related to something like civilization or master of Orion as a 4x type. Would have to go check it out again to see if I'm right or just mixing memories with other games we played around that time.

Extras for the movie explained that it is processed insect protein. The intelligent animals in their world are exclusively mammals. No insects or reptiles etc.

The mammals part is in the early part with the play Judy is in.

Do you have a better source for death rate or similar relative to the actual amount of energy generated? Happy to compare if you do. Not trying to push this as a be all data source and happy to replace it with a better one if available.

Exactly. The problem now is the extreme lag time to build new ones vs solar and wind. However having some truly base load facilities still makes me want more built.

Vast majority of power should be renewables and storage and I think for this community of Lemmy that is preaching to the choir.

If you strictly go off the number of deaths and shortened lives from cancer added up to years of a life even Chernobyl is in the 50-300 death range. To be fair I don't have a source for that at the moment and am going off memory. Hydro has had far worse single events in terms of deaths. There are even car racing incidents around the 80 deaths range. So I just never understand nuclear fear if run under a set of actually enforced regulations.

 

First post on the fediverse. Hopefully it auto loads the link photo but if not I'll put it as the first comment. Sorry for anything incorrect in handling this.
