I remember mine, but it’s cause mine is only 7 digits

No, no. We want a thriving wage at this point. This living wage BS isn’t getting us anywhere.

Unironically, yes.
- Comment on Boring ass planet 1 week ago:
That’s certainly an option, but right now it seems most space agencies are totally ignoring Venus as a possibility, and are focused on a Mars colony.
- Comment on rollin' coal 1 week ago:
You can have severe core damage without any nuclear reactions. A meltdown is severe core damage caused by a nuclear reaction that got out of control.
There aren’t “steam explosions” in physics. There are chemical reactions that cause an explosion, pressure buildups that cause an explosion, and nuclear explosions.
The steam was a pressure buildup that caused the incident resulting in an initial pressure explosion. The thing that “melted” the core of Chernobyl was the hydrogen exploding, hence a chemical explosion. Had it been a nuclear event that melted that core, neither Kiev nor Moscow would be inhabitable. The capital of Russia would be St. Petersburg, and Ukraine wouldn’t exist, as well as several other Soviet Oblasts in the area.

That was an Army test reactor. The Navy has a spotless record, so far.

When the melted bit, caused by an uncontrolled nuclear reaction, escapes containment.
- Comment on rollin' coal 1 week ago:
Chernobyl is a big lump in a sub basement, but that was still the result of a chemical explosion, not a meltdown. My point was that the only meltdown incidents have been caused by the US.
TMI is a bit of a sticky wicket, because as you say the roda did melt, but we got it back under control before abything more than some steam escaped containment.
- Comment on rollin' coal 1 week ago:
It may still be classified. I learned about it in Nuclear Power School in the Navy

A hell-sphere that would be easier to fix than Mars, which is an entirely different type of hell-sphere. Just toss in enough ice to make eventual oceans and some cyanobacteria, and it should calm down in a few hundred thousand years.

Pluto is nice and colorful
- Comment on rollin' coal 1 week ago:
The part that I’m amazed by is that no civilian seems to know about the TVA meltdown. It’s the only full meltdown we ever had, and the Army Corps of Engineers lost all access to nuclear power because of that incident, as they intentionally melted it down to test China Syndrome. This was in the 50s. They did build the thing inside of a mountain to contain all the radiation, but had the physicist that came up with China Syndrome been right, that wouldn’t have really mattered. They also could have just done the math to figure out that, yet again, the physicist in question understood physics just fine, but lacked in mathematics.

Comrades, it’s time to follow the example of Rico Rodriguez! Oil pipelines were made to be blown up! Along with military vehicles!
- Comment on The Verge shows how Google search is useless 1 week ago:
Are they actually recommending the Reddit search function? We shit on their internal search function for over a decade, and told people to just use Google and site:Reddit in the search.
- Comment on Is Boeing in big trouble? World's largest aerospace firm faces 10 more whistleblowers after sudden death of two 1 week ago:
You’re talking them to death? That’s gotta be harder than just shooting them, my man.
- Comment on Is Boeing in big trouble? World's largest aerospace firm faces 10 more whistleblowers after sudden death of two 1 week ago:
Navy and Air Force still have plenty of Boeings that were made properly. They’re talking about fitting the B-52 with warp engines rather than ever retire the thing
- Comment on A conversation with my wife 1 week ago:
My mother scandalized the Navy nurses by refusing to allow me out of her sight for any reason including a circumcision. She said there was no need,.as she loved every part.if me, and wasn’t going to be staying in the hospital one second longer than necessary. The doctor had to shoo the nurse out of the room while she was objecting that was not standard procedure.
- Comment on Elon Musk Laid Off Supercharger Team After Taking $17 Million in Federal Charging Grants 2 weeks ago:
Looking at the several billion dollars that we gave the telecommunication companies for “nation wide high speed fiber infrastructure,” I would say the answer is not only yes, but we will keep giving them more money for the same damn thing.

IT as well
- Comment on Thomas Edison was the Elon musk of his era 2 weeks ago:
More, “let’s shit on rich assholes that pretend to invent shit that they had nothing to do with.” Edison at least may have had one original thought with the incandescent light bulb filament, but even that one is debatable. Musk is just another rich fuck, like Edison, that has come along to buy and claim credit for tons of shit he never even tangentially thought of.
- Comment on checkmate, big geology!! 2 weeks ago:
More like a champagne bottle than a cannon really. The concrete/asphalt cork will just go flying and barely slow down the eruption. Might make the initial part of the eruption a bit more “spurty,” since there’s bound to be a ton of kinetic energy behind that cork being ejected.

In the US, they have much higher medical bills than the younger crowd. Outside of the US it doesn’t make any sense
