News@lemmy.world•Plutonium levels near US atomic site in Los Alamos similar to Chornobyl, study finds21·11 months agoFun fact! This is also how we know when certain asteroids smashed into the earth, because the impact deposits a layer of minerals and elements not found super common in the crust.
Also, sensing equipment that uses or detects radiation as part of its function has to be made of non-radioactive materials in order to not interfere. And since hairless apes started cracking atoms open, all steel is ever so slightly radioactive. They need special preparations to make steel without any isotopes present. This also means pre-1945 steel fetches a higher price in some instances.

News@lemmy.world•Plutonium levels near US atomic site in Los Alamos similar to Chornobyl, study finds31·11 months agoThat’s the whole point of things like this.
Make it seem super scary, turn public opinion against anything nuclear.
Usually you see articles like this pop up whenever there are renewed discussions for nuclear power plants. Not sure if this is one of those, or just clickbait.

News@lemmy.world•Plutonium levels near US atomic site in Los Alamos similar to Chornobyl, study finds81·11 months agoOkay this might sound like conspiracy theory bullshit… But is there any major country preparing to construct nuclear power plants, or is there a looming decision about nuclear power over fossil fuels coming soon?
Because this is the exact kind of news article you see get pushed whenever someone starts making nuclear power seem like the viable option that it is.
Anything that makes it seem like it’s seconds from ending all life on the planet as we know it.
Anything to demonize it.
Anything to turn public perception negative.

Yes, why don’t these poor farmers who have nowhere else to go simply BUY large plots of land?
Let them eat cake.

Memes@lemmy.ml•Sir, the water cooler is not heavy machinery4·11 months agoStill illegal in many places in the US. I just happen to live in a state that is legal.
Since I’m close to a state border, I only need to drive about 20 minutes to be somewhere it’s illegal again.
And if you live in an “at will” state, they can just fire you even if it’s legal.
Sidenote: “at will” employment is the biggest sack of bullshit that employers convinced people is totally normal.
Im hopeful that the US, EU, and UK legalize it within the next few years. I’m realistic about the chances, I know how the older generations of politicians are, but I still cross my fingers.

Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Reddit Undeleted all my posts and commentsEnglish26·11 months agoI had to fiddle with my own on my old laptop, I used one of the plethora of github scripts, but then they changed the api to limit access to (I think) about 100/min, so I just changed the delays to 1000ms so it would only delete 60/min.
Took two weeks, but I still haven’t seen any old content pop back up outside of archives and quotes from other comments in the thread.
I search for a couple random things I remember saying on ddg/bing/Google whenever I think about it, so far nothing.
As I’ve said before about certain countries, you know your platform is doing well when you (essentially) tell people “No, sorry, you can’t leave.”

News@lemmy.world•New Covid Shots Were Approved. But Who Will Get Them?5·11 months agoI’m pretty sure I’ve gotten it since getting the vaccine and boosters, but it was super mild in comparison.
Basically I figured it was a cold until I stopped smelling things again for a couple days, but in under a week I was fine. No test to confirm.
If I’m going to be in close proximity to people I still wear a mask, but my day-to-day allows me to avoid people for the most part.

Me: “yeah, it’s legal and I have a life outside of work. Sorry if you can’t relate, but my personal time is just that. Personal.”
This exchange did not go well from there, but guess who got fired for something first. (hint: not me)

World News@lemmy.world•The biggest diamond in over a century is found in Botswana -- a whopping 2,492 caratsEnglish4·11 months agoWell, I could have gone into detail about their scientific and industrial value, but those aren’t what massively inflates their perceived importance and price.

News@lemmy.world•New Covid Shots Were Approved. But Who Will Get Them?22·11 months agoI got covid before I was allowed to get the first vaccines and I’m still pissed about that since I drove by the closest vaccination spot every day for work and it was almost always empty. I lived in a very red area so it was very much a case of “doors are open but nobody’s lining up” but I was still not part of o e of the groups they allowed to get one yet.
So yeah, I will be continuing to keep up on it, because that was the worst 2 months of my adult life, and I am absolutely certain I got some of the cognitive side effects of covid.
What a weird question to ask, NYT

Memes@lemmy.ml•But if Gizbak stops maintaining his Summoning Circle tomes, the whole world of magic will fall apart12·11 months agoHmm. Too bad you need a bunch of resources for those instead of… Idk, waving your hand and saying some words.
I haven’t really been keeping up with nuclear news, so that’s actually a surprise to me that so many reactors are in-progress!
I guess I shouldn’t be surprised that the narrative of some is “nuclear is evil” instead of “China is beating us on energy, BUILD MORE TO BEAT THEM!” But oil lobbies really do have their claws into every facet of government… Quadruple down on fossil fuels and smear campaigns, money machine go brrr.
