The machine is obligated to humor me, no matter how absurd the premise or how far I want to go down the rabbit hole. Humans have finite patience.> like the archeological evidence supporting or opposing the poggio brocciolini theory of tacitus forgery.

@p @nanook @fluffy I think if you had to have a girlfriend that's smarter than you she'd have to be at most within a standard deviation (~20 IQ points). Much higher than that and it'd be difficuilt to establish a rapport.

@fluffy @p that is a good point. I think this is a net positive. It's not depriving another human of interaction, since that interaction would not have happened with another human anyway. It's more like 'talking to yourself+' where the + is an entity with encyclopedic backup but limited sense-making (we're not calling it intelligence, AI has no intelligence). It's a good combo if one adapts to it.

@fluffy @p Ha ha, actually I do believe nuclear plants are a large part of the short term solution but one particular type of nuclear reactor, a molten salt fast-flux breeder reactor. The reason being a combination of inherent safety by the very physics of the plant, it's relative efficiency, it's lack of need for water, it's lower physical land requirements relative to other plant types, and it's ability to use long term actinide waste from existing plants as fuel, recover more than 20x as much energy from the waste as the original plant did from the fuel, produce waste that isn't bomb grade or readily made into bomb grade material, do reprocessing on site so little opportunity for terrorists to intercept transport, among other things.As for outlawing JavaScript, I would extend that to any language using garbage collection for memory management and any interpretive language that didn't use at least a just in time compiler with caching.

Although one thought Nixon was still president lol.Its fun for what it is, you have a little pi with some relatively decent capabilities. The hat it self has 8g or ram on it so combined with a 16g pi it so its surprisingly powerful all things considered. Unlike that nvdiia dev board I cant do certain things like having hashcat play with it and such.Ive actually got a pretty high end camera for the visual stuff that so far seems to work...idk I need to get my head around it a bit more.

@p @fluffy I think it part of the reason until recently, but I think at this point the major powers have enough nuclear materials, too much waste, and the public's discomfort with unsafe boiling water reactors are changing this. China has one in operation now. Also, metals with sufficient corrosion resistance and temperature tolerance have only recently been identified.

@nanook @fluffy @bajax If the entire pipe on the dedi has been saturated and normal operations have been not just impeded but effectively DDoS'd, and if I blocked 500k uniques in a month (not counting the blanket ban on all PRC IPs a few days ago) and I'm still blocking at least one per second, 24 hours a day, I'd say it's extremely aggressive. A high number of reqs/second isn't necesarily aggressive, a low number isn't necessarily innocuous.They are way more difficult to stop than BoardReader was ( https://blog.freespeechextremist.com/blog/fse-vs-fbi.html ) but they are somewhat less aggressively DDoSing.

@nanook @fluffy @bajax Well, there's post size and there's thread structure. Mastodon attempts to show a thread as a single, linear thing; it does this by hiding other subthreads. PleromaFE links up and down so you see a linear (chronological by the order the server received them) string of messages, but you can navigate threads in terms of the thread's structure.

Usually what fixes the issue is filling up the timeline to bump the problems out of the first page.

@nanook @fluffy > The Chinese pattern has always been build one, prove it works, built a thousand so I am confident that they will.That is how scale works, yes. That's not the Chinese method, that's everyone's method."It works" and "It works at scale" and "We can build the scale" are all different questions and they did the first one. If they do the rest, sure, that's great. I'm interested in cheap nuclear energy. As far as the likelihood that they do or do not do this, a nuclear power plant is not like building a cell phone. Maybe unforeseen problems occur. Maybe they don't.Right now, though, no one has built thorium salt reactors at scale. That's it. I understand you would like them to be real and viable and I would like them to be real and viable but that has yet to be demonstrated so I am waiting. I am not building nuclear power plants at present so I have no influence on the outcome.

This is exactly my point. Pleroma can display arbitrarily large posts as well. But the difference between a warehouse and a junkyard is organization. Data is not different: it can be architected such that it is easy to follow a thread or not. Compare the way mutt/Thunderbird/sylpheed/etc. structure email threads versus the way GMail structures them.Case in point, the thread seems to you like a stream of non-sequiturs rather than a branching conversation. And I say "Threads seem to confuse a lot of Friendica/Hubzilla people." and I think this is the UI.

@nanook @fluffy Sure, but electronics manufacturing is a much more well-understood problem than building nuclear power plants.I'm not saying it won't happen or that they can't do it. I hope they *can* do it. I'm just saying that they haven't done it yet.

@p @fluffy This may be generally true but the physics of a nuclear plant are not all that difficult to understand, the main challenges are material and chemistry and those have been mostly worked out by third parties (chemistry Kirk Sorensen), materials (Copenhagen Atomics), so not really any exotic problems.

@nanook @fluffy I have heard you say that you think it is going to be easy. If it were easy, they'd already have a thousand plants. Unless Kirk Sorensen stood up a thousand plants, it's all unproven.Making one of something is very different from making a hundred of it. I will believe that they can make a hundred when they make a hundred. Right now, it seems possible, it may even seem plausible, but it is not *done*. Telling me that they can is not going to affect my belief in whether or not they will do it, and there is no reason to convince me, since neither of us can affect the outcome.There is also no reason: if you are reasonably convinced, then I will agree with you in a couple of years. There's no reason to hurry, is there? Do I need to have a positive belief in the practicality of scaling up thorium reactors *before* the thorium reactors are scaled up?

@p @fluffy First, we built and operated one at Oak Ridge National Laboratory in 1965 and operated it for four years, during which time on experiment that was done was to pull the control rods for maximum reactivity and turn off the cooling. It was allowed to run in this mode for 24 hours, no damage resulted. So since it's already been done 60 years ago physically it is not that difficult. That said, this was a military test reactor and it was decided to pursue a uranium fuel cycle rather than thorium because we just didn't have enough plutonium to blow enough shit up quite yet. So to be clear it's already been done but not scaled up to commercial power levels, the Chinese will be the first to do that.

@nanook @fluffy Okay, here, like, this is the clearest I am able to be on the topic: I am not going to agree with you that a thing that I do not believe to be certain is certain. I hope that thing works out but it has not worked out yet. The only thing you can say to change my mind on the topic is "They have just built the 100th thorium salt reactor". So far, what we have is a viable prototype: that's good news. If it's trivial like you keep insisting, then we'll have a hundred in no time flat. I will believe it when I see it. I hope I see it.> So to be clear it's already been done but not scaled up to commercial power levels, the Chinese will be the first to do that.Maybe. It doesn't look like anyone else will do it before they do. The first energy-positive fusion reaction just happened a the big fusion reactor in Europe: that's encouraging, too. A lot of interesting things are happening and if any of them pans out, it'll be really cool. None of them have panned out yet.I do not see the urgency. My belief does not influence the outcome. So there are no stakes, there's no urgency. I have no reason to form a belief in either direction. It is definitely possible based on what I currently know, which is why I say "I will believe it when I see it" and not "That's bullshit and will never happen."

I'm fairly convinced that the reason we don't have cheap power is more or less entirely a political matter.If you try to build one in a 1st world country, there's so much regulation that it's just not going to happen.If you try to build one in a non-1st world country, you're gonna get bombed because "muh nuclear proliferation".China is working on it, but they're probably facing quiet international backlash because once the cat's out of the bag, everyone is going to want one...It's basically like Free Energy suppression, except it actually happens.

@cjd @p @fluffy Regulation is a big issue but regulation that was appropriate for a boiling water reactor is not appropriate for a molten salt reactor because the former is an inherently unstable and only marginally safe by automation design with several explosive failure modes widely distribution radioactive material, where as a molten salt reactor is a reactor design safe by physics with no manual or automatic responses necessary and no explosive failure mode to distribute radioactives.

@nanook @fluffy > I'm familiar with the physics and tech. I have no idea what your background is.Also familiar, and also aware of the difference between "we have one of something" and "it's everywhere". You ever read the early RFCs? Took a long time to go from prototype to production, and the early RFCs are more or less the transition period between production and ubiquity.> Logically you only need one instance of something to prove it possible, we've got two so far. *Logistically*, a prototype is not production. The physical principles have been demonstrated: building a production model is a different thing and building at scale is yet another different thing. It's the difference between a team of guys finely tuning a single thing versus an assembly line cranking out a hundred finely tuned things. Multiply this by the number of finely tuned things you need to put into a nuclear plant. Nobody has made a hundred thorium salt reactors yet: there exist unknown unknowns. Maybe there are no black swans and everything goes smoothly; maybe there are and it doesn't. Nuclear engineering is, at present, an extreme field of engineering: it's not a dude trying to figure out how to make the bridge stop galloping, it's closer to the dude trying to figure out how to get LIDAR to Europa. (Really fascinating: https://hackaday.com/2017/01/19/steve-collins-when-things-go-wrong-in-space/ .)If it's trivial, they'd already be everywhere. Process doesn't scale yet. When we dropped the first nuclear bomb, that was one of three bombs that existed. The first one we had tested in the desert, then we had two more, we dropped one, then we dropped the other, and we said we'd keep dropping them but that was a bluff: estimates were that it would take about a year to build a fourth. Process didn't scale yet.

@BowsacNoodle @fluffy @cjd @nanook The Soviets did this. I don't know for certain the fate of the project; I've heard shit like "they're all leaky and some of them still work" and I haven't looked into it.One issue, and you hit this issue with nuclear batteries in probes and satellites because you don't have the ability to get rid of heat the same way you can on earth, is that with a nuclear reaction, you don't get to slow down, you can't, like, shovel more or less coal: there's heat or electricity coming out of the thing, you've gotta figure out what to do with it during off-peak hours. A lot of plants just supplement with gas generators for peak hours and use the nuclear plant for the base level.

> if it was possible to make cheap power, you could just do itAnd then men with guns come and take away your house.You were doing the math on a pressurized water reactor, and all of the safety equipment that is expected when you have hot radioactive stuff under high pressure.If you use molten fuel (not even a thorium breeder, just plain old boring uranium), you have no pressure to deal with, you could use ceramic pipes, a ceramic Archimedes pump, so basically you need beryllium and lithium fluoride, ceramic clay, u233, high purity graphite, a boiler & steam turbine, and lots and lots of concrete.None of those things are that costly. They're not *cheap*, but they're not expensive in comparison to being able to crank out like 30kw of power all day and all night.If it weren't for regulation, there'd be youtubers doing this, I'm sure of it.

@cjd @p @fluffy When you consider Chernobyl, Fukushima, this is questionable. The emphasis is on the wrong things however. One of those is US regulations require radiation to be as low as possible, as low as possible trends towards infinite expense, but there is no indication that exposures to low levels of radiation is hazardous to human health. The cancer rates in Denver are not higher than Seattle. So one thing that would reduce expense considerably is if rules were re-written to allow low but non-zero radiation levels.

@fluffy @cjd @p This is another area where the risks for a molten salt reactor are totally different. In a boiling or pressurized water reactor, a large earthquake could break plumbing resulting in 300 atmospheres of pressure in the reactor instantly dropping to zero, all coolant flashing to steam and the reactor melting down. In a molten salt reactor, if plumbing breaks you spill some fuel / salt mixture on the floor, it solidifies and goes nowhere, and since fission products are continuously removed, without the chain reaction there is no heat and the radioactivity is much lower which means someone scoops it up, places it back in the reactor tank, repairs the plumbing and life goes on.

Nobody is rushing out to slap down solar farms they are doing it because they are farming other people's money via government grift. Outside of Arizona, some parts of southern California, and maybe New Mexico they make no sense even as a peaker plant at the current cost (and constant availability) of natural gas.Its the same people that have a boner for heatpumps - for most of north america in winter below ~37F it costs less per therm to just burn methane in a furnace than it does to try to work the corner of the COP graph.

@DemonSixOne @fluffy @cjd @nanook > southern CaliforniaThe San Francisco occupiers have seized control of the sun in California. You may not run a solar array unless you are selling power back to the grid. So you would be able to run one to avoid brownouts, but they want the brownouts (get a good UPS). So you sell electricity to the grid. Homeowners don't have a huge reason to install them, and most people are renting anyway so the person that pays the power bill and the person that pays the property tax are not the same guy, so the incentives are misaligned.So, you know, Antarctica. If you could do something without NIMBYs, it's Antarctica. They use diesel generators for the most part: they have some solar panels and some wind turbines, but for most of their power, they use diesel.

> thoriumThere are two different things here, one is molten fuel and the other is thorium breeding.Molten fuel is a really big deal because you lose the pressure, so then you don't need any pressure vessels, containment, etc. If it's a slow reactor like the MSRE they ran in the 60s, you have a graphite core and hot molten salt with uranium dissolved in it. When the salt passes through the core, the graphite moderates the neutrons which causes reaction and it gets hot, when it's not in the core, it doesn't.The other really big deal about molten fuel is that it's a liquid, so chemists can do chemistry on it, like for example extracting the waste (and just the waste) and then putting the other 95% good fuel back in to run again. PWRs retire fuel pellets when they're no longer good for reacting, which is when they're about 5% degraded.The challenge with molten salt is it corrodes things, and that nobody can get permits to build it. There are like 4 or 5 companies trying to build them in the west and it's all just held up on permits.Thorium is a whole other topic. The thing about thorium is that it's really really abundant, and if you bombard it with neutrons, it will transform into uranium 233. So people have the idea of surrounding the reactor with a layer of thorium to absorb the wasted neutrons and convert it whilst running the normal uranium reaction. But this is not necessary for molten salt, it's just a stretch goal. Uranium is already like $60 a pound which is basically dirt cheap for the amounts you actually need.The MSRE did not breed thorium, but Alvin Weinberg (administrator of the MSRE and also inventor of everybody's favorite PWR) suggested that it could.

@cjd @p @fluffy That said I favor fast spectrum because although thorium will breed efficiently with slow spectrum most even actinides require faster neutrons, so to burn up existing actinide waste we need fast spectrum.Second advantage, fast spectrum doesn't require a graphite moderator, which is flammable and potentially a chernobyl.

@p @nanook @fluffy @cjd I know the Australians have a 30kW array at their Antarctica station. I imagine there are challenges related to the low sun angle (basically the panels need to be 90 degrees from the ground) which isn't ideal with the high winds common to the continent.

@p @cjd @fluffy Problem with water reactors so called fail-safe it it doesn't work. The containment vessel is designed to contain flash to steam but won't contain a hydrogen explosion as in Fukushima, safety is active not physics, both of these problems are solved in molten salt reactors.

@nanook @cjd @fluffy That reactor only had a hydrogen explosion because it was one of the shitty old designs and it was also not rated for those earthquakes. But it didn't go critical. Radiation leak from dumping the water, but no fuckin' crater.

@nanook @fluffy > getting to many is a function of investing in the necessary labor and materials and regulatory infrastructureIt's another phase of R&D. The "R" part means anything can happen. Maybe it does. Maybe not. That's it. You cannot convince me of your prescience: I will believe in prescience when I see it.> If your choice is make the investment or starve I hope we will make the wiser choice. Of al the people in charge of nuclear plant licensing and provisioning and regulation and investing and whatnot, not one of them has asked me what I thought.

@fluffy @p In a boiling water reactor you have two sources of hydrogen, neutrons occasionally split water into hydrogen and oxygen, this is a minor source and a catalytic combiner keeps up with this source, but when you flash the water to steam it reacts with the zirconium cladding in the fuel rods and this was the source in Fukushima and a problem that can't be designed out of boiling water reactors.

@nanook @fluffy All these reactors running 50 years and I'm in favor of thorium salt reactors. I like them. I'm just not super worried about something that's only happened to one reactor after it got hit with an earthquake two orders of magnitude higher than it was supposed to.Friend of mine worked in an oil refinery a while and I think *anything* is safer than California's oil refineries.I support your efforts but I remain unconvinced that conventional reactors are so terrible and thorium-salt reactors are still in the design phase.

@p @BowsacNoodle @cjd @fluffy I extremely don't like modular designs, they are nearly all pebble bed designs in which fuel is encased in silicon carbide. The problem with this design is burn rate is low because there is no way to remove fission products, there is no way to recover actinides are reprocess them, and so you waste 99% of the fuels energy capacity and end up with a million year waste product.

I concur on the pebble bed stuff... GE and Westinghouse always making things more complicated than they need to be in order to bill support.But the promise of modular is orthogonal to whether the fuel is solid or liquid. Being able to assemble a plant out of shipping container sized parts that are built in a factory is a game changer for construction cost... Also for replacement or decommissioning, you don't need the army corps of engineers to move the things...

@nanook @fluffy @p I didn't think H2 was as much of a concern in the zircaloy cladding of a BWR as it is in the condensate side of things where hydrogen is more likely to hide out in corners and embrittle welds

@p @fluffy I'm not suggesting worrying, I am suggesting if we can make it absolutely safe, and at the same time more fuel efficient, and at the same time eliminate a long term waste issue, and at the same time increase the available fuel by 5000+ times, we should do so.

@p @nanook @fluffy TMSR-1 or whatever its called in chinese works. They literally copied, scaled down and continued the work from Oak Ridge labs 60 years ago, complete with the same FLiBe coolant primary. They succeeded in the first fueling with thorium in late 2024. As far as I know its the most successful Gen IV prototype.The reason that MSR/LFTR tech hasn't been worked on much is two fold. First is the corrosive problem of the fuel, now mostly solved with modern superalloys. The second being that it is impractical to make a bomb with the thorium cycle because inevitable that any U-233 created during the fuel cycle will be significantly contaminated by U-232 which is a real cunt to handle.
