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.

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.

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.
