You gotta watch out for those Lifeguards with Lugers.

You can safely swim in the pool of an operational reactor, the ocean near Fukushima is perfectly safe.

Fantastic. Tremendous. This pile, and I have to say I have seen many piles, this pile, of shit, is the greatest pile of shit, that anyone has ever seen. Period. Do you think crooked Hillary has a pile like this. No. Only me.

The post office system is socialist, so are functions like public roads, and fire and police services.

I’d argue that having the government provide a service isn’t enough to call something socialist. In “The Wealth of Nations”, Adam Smith said that in a free-market economy, the governments role was to provide defence, law and order, and public works (eg. roads and education). If we’re using Marx’s definitions for communism, then surely we have to use Smith’s definitions for Capitalism.

The reduced operating emissions take 10+ years to outweigh the enormous construction emissions of nuclear. (Compared to gas.)

The 38 OECD economies are all capitalist. Only 1 lacks universal healthcare.

They definitely use incandescent globes for heating as well. I just remember when I had fish, the shops would advertise neon heat lamps for terrariums. (I think it might have had something to do with infrared heating, but I’ve never had a terrarium so I’m kinda guessing now.)

If that’s old-school it’ll be neon, modern ones get the same look with LEDs. If it’s flickering slightly, it’s neon.

Large ones are pretty rare these days, because they’re horribly inefficient at turning electricity into light. The main place you’ll still find them are as heating lamps (for things like terrariums).

Humans aren’t much different. 99.9% of what we create is just a remix of existing parts/ideas. It’s why people spend 12-20 years pre-training on all the existing knowledge in the field they’re going to work in.

You can’t have a communist economic policy without being authoritarian. It’s human nature - once money is removed as a motivator, society breaks down unless you motivate people some other way (not being sent to the gulag).

Back in CRT days, the difference between full white and full black could be as much as 100W. Before dark mode existed, people developed sites like Blackle to reduce the power usage of Googling.

I went straight from Mozilla Navigator to Firefox 1.0.

Tabs were such a crazy new thing back then. You would show tabbed browsing to someone (rather than opening new windows) and they thought you were a wizard. IE5 didn’t have tabs, so nerds moved to Mozilla/Firefox. Then IE6 came out but still didn’t have tabs. By the time IE7 came out, I’d had tabbed browsing for 5+ years.

Didn’t you read the article bro? There’s no rent in international waters, and he ate free fish and rainwater.

Crisis over!

Did you read the article? That’s what they tried to do in Victoria, and it’s part of the reason for the blowouts.

Wow, what an embarrassment for Australia.
