Have You Heard About This?

 Three Mile Island nuclear plant gears up for Big Tech reboot

Does anyone out there remember the Accident at 3 Mile Island?, which was caused by design flaws, operator error, lack of training, and pure bad luck, all of which caused a partial nuclear meltdown and exposure of a nuclear reactor core?

Now these dumb bells are going to refurbish and restart the remaining unit.

And guess who is doing this? Microsoft. As in Bill Gates.

I am against this. There is too much that can go wrong with nuclear energy. Where do you keep the spent waste. How can you safely do that. How many operators does it take to screw in a light bulb when they are busy sleeping on the job. And on and on, ad infinitem.

Human nature being what it is, it won't take long to fuck this up.

  1. Finland has a facility for storing nuclear waste for 100,000 years and Sweden is build one but is not completed yet.

  2. The US Navy has centuries of total operating time on their over one hundred of nuclear reactors without an issue. Thresher and Scorpion were lost but the reactors didn't lose containment.

    Nuclear power is safe when properly managed.

  3. Accidents happened at nuke plants 40+ years ago when the engineers, technicians and operators were competent, coherent and educated. Imagine how bad it's going to be with a nuke plant full of DEI morons running things.
