Courtesy of the Tech Bros, Nuke Puke is receiving a publicity makeover as Safe, Clean & Renewable Energy "we" need to power our techno-future society. We of course really means they need it to power their Juice Gobbling Hogs, the AI Data Centers that every respectable Billionaire needs to have on his list of energy consumptive toys, to go along with the aircraft carrier sized Private Yachts, Jumbe Jets and Rocket Ships. Oh, and don't forget the football field sized garages to house the car collections of Bugattis,Maseratis and Rolls-Royces.
At least the carz, Yachts, Planes and Rockets sit idle most of the time. Not so the AI Data Centers, which have to be on 24/7/365 just in case he wakes up at 3AM and needs it to flush the toilet after he takes a shit.
Donchya know, poor Nuke Puke has been the victim of "misinformation" about their safety:
After nuclear was largely written off in the past due to widespread fears about meltdowns and safety risks — and misinformation that dramatized those concerns — experts are touting tech's recent investments as the start of a "nuclear revival" that could accelerate an energy transformation in the U.S. and around the world.
Thus the reason it is now getting a full scale makeover as the dependable power source to suck up enough juice to keep Chicago lit up like a Christmas Tree or refrigerate Ecuador in midsummer. An even bigger joke is that they are selling Nuke Puke as RENEWABLE energy! In what universe is an energy source that depends on strip mining with diesel powered heavy equipment and produces toxic waste that needs to be stored for millenia in an as yet unspecified manner or location "renewable"? These folks talk with a straight face about needing to double or triple electricity generation over the next 20 years. Forget the CO2, the waste heat alone from these server farms will probably raise the atmospheric temperature by another 1.5C and turn Greenland into a Tropical Resort. Which is probably why Trumpsky wants to annex them and build Trump Casinos on the beaches. ::)
We are DOOMED. You can't fix stupid.
