Never forget the future that was taken from us.
It’ll come back eventually unless fusion takes over. The power density promises are simply too attractive.
The mining and processing of the “fuel” is not. The cost of the plants and the risks neither. That’s why nuclear is slowly losing to regenerative.
Btw, from the World Nuclear Industry Status Report 2024 > Key Insights:
Russia is also playing a key role in the supply of fuel services, involving uranium mining, conversion, and fuel assembly manufacturing for Soviet-designed VVER pressurized water reactors, of which there are 19 in the E.U. and 15 in Ukraine. International sanctions have had little effect on the business. On the contrary, the share of Russian supply of natural uranium, conversion, and enrichment services to the E.U. all increased between pre-war year 2021 and 2023; VVER fuel imports doubled.
And you can see all of my points confirmed in that report.
“Timmy you left the aluminum foil on the atomic wafer!!”

“My apologies mother and father, I have been absent of clear cognition.”
She’s right there. This is literally a power play to force her kid to do a pointless task.
“pick up that can”
Of course, mother!
Wait a sec, I was told American’s don’t use the metric system…
We also don’t use apostrophes for plural words.
You were lied to. We use a mix of both, just like the UK.
Do you know which comics is it?
I passed out from the flood of Fallout references that just rushed into my brain.

About the hairy chest (don’t worry, it’s harmless).
Putting it in my underwear later…
