solar panels don't use rare earths. They use sand. Rare earths and lithium are not radioactive. Thorium is more expensive than Uranium processing and molten salt reactors have never lasted long.

absurd. Uranium mines need huge exclusion zones. In fact the biggest ones have large enough exclusion zones that more solar energy could be harvested than the energy content of the uranium underneath.

2gw, but yes, before any operational/maintenance costs that is $17.5/watt. Solar is under $1/watt, and GA is sunny AF.

solar today is warranteed for 30 years. No reason to replace before 60 years compared to adding more beside it.

Do I speak Ierland-ish? Mabey not, could be weird, but I got the one that must be Italian, and then I can pick English from there. Except I glossed over Groot-Brit.... because Groot couldn't be what I was looking for.

maybe switching to x11 driver before sleep would solve it from that thread :(

Maybe scarier roads make you drive slower?

I assume this includes pedestrians and cyclist deaths? It's by population rather than by "car" or "km driven" but I'd like to see a per county breakdown.

In the case of war on Iran, Trump successfully ended it, or ended so far. Congress as part of the zionist first rule over America would definitely have authorized it, and may have been behind "discrediting the success" report leaks, in order to extend the war. Israel did fail to provide immunity from war crime repercussions, and so likely happy, at citizen level, with ceasefire. But congress is no threat to zionist supremacy, and a debate procedure, just legitimizes the illusion of non tyranny.

Is there a story for why latest did not use the epic masterpiece score used in first 2 movies?

There is a perverse logic to increasing GDP by employing every white male to round up and detain mexicans. But aligators are taking white jobs, now.

Pushing over Russian red lines is what got Ukraine special military operation. It can result in strikes on NATO eventually too. US political leadership attempting to resolve situation may protect them more than its colonies still in rabid Russophobia/CIA deep state mode.

Ukraine would owe familied $2B if it accepted the bodies. Victims of nazi regime coercion that will sacrifice every last conscript for anti-Russia empire geopolitics, see it as last straw against their cannon fodder slavery.

6000 soldiers since last month is also a very large number that has averaged 1000 or so per month. 10 to 1 ratio of Ukrainian to Russian dead, btw, at least over last year.

16gb ram. nvida GTX1650. Triple monitors

want to run existing windows 10 installation in VM, with write access. This is mostly for tax software.

plan is new SSD drive. Make 2 partitions for windows, with backup to both. Let it be C: drive? Then reformat PCIe M2 drive for linux.

I only care about the VM not FUBARing the windows installation, even if I have a 2nd backup of it.

I play one game that has a linux version: beyond all reason.

I've used debian/ubuntu based linux before. I don't need/want to highly customize performance/features. Just working out of box.

Citing costs of F35 and Abrahms tanks.

Chinese Aluminum pries are 1/3 and Steel prices 1/2 of US, and so ironically, one of the few import countries that can compete with inflated protectionist US prices.

Canada has taken an embarrassingly weak response to US attack on it. Still cooperating with US miltary, and yet to cancel F35s and other weapons purchases.

I guess the collective western public timidity can get Trump to TACO with private non movement over time, but more aggressive expansion of international relationships without confronting US evil would be more proactive while still publicly timid. Instead process looks like gaslighting their own people until further subjugation is imposed on them.

Op half focuses on war on china half on empire expansion.

It's really empire expansion that is dramatic political turn in us. Need for eu and canada to help destroy usa, and cooperate closer with China is Only path to stop the extortion.

The us is not capable of taking on China militarily any more. But pretending it can, can make weapon salesmen rich.

Instead of a BS "rearmament ceasefire" that will require Ukraine to retreat until they break their BS ceasefire, Ukraine/Europe is in a position to agree to demilitarization of Ukraine in exchange for demilitarization of Russia. Europe seems stuck on losing a provoked war against Russia, just because their people have already been brainwashed on that being the bestest idea every 100 years.
