  • Like the “hasnt left the lab in 75 years” thorium reactors (Which current designs still need enriched uranium)? and the recycle reactors that produce weapons grade plutonium (Of course, also via enriched uranium)? Id love to see you

    No I dont mean those, I mean the CANDU’s, a viable system that has been operating for around the same amount of time thorium has been in development hell (again, 75 years).

    Are you trying to say america has never had a nuclear disaster on record? Cause its pretty easy to google that US has had more nuclear accidents in the 2000’s than canada has in the past century. The Three Mile Island meltdown was probably the worst nuclear accident in north america, its hardly reasonable to ignore it. Unless you count uranium mining accidents, cause then the Church Rock uranium mill takes the crown.

    And which country has ~2000 nuclear reactors? I must have missed this in my research, with those numbers they account for approximately 4x the total number of reactors in the world, a surprising oversight. (Or are you doing some football math that 94/19 = 100x? Cause even if 94/19=5x then per capita america is still lacking)







  • I largely agree, but I could see having a prebuild iso/img including uboot for most common boards being a lot more user friendly than doing it by hand.

    That and a binary cache could make things take a couple mins for a download vs a couple days to compile the kernel + all packages for any user with lower end hardware.

    Kinda like what armbian provides for the arm space, but with a lot harder initial curve by hand rolling their own distro.

    Mid-range networking equiptment common in higher end homelabs or small/medium enterprises.

    Doesnt compete with fancier Cisco gear, but has an easy to use interface that can scale fairly well.

    Though like most networking equiptment the hardware is dirt cheap, so Alpine’s lightweight base fits it well.
