It’s good that they’re doing this even if it’s for their own gain

When can I expect to get depleted uranium rods to be delivered to my home?

Incredible. How can companies have that much power? Buying a nuclear reactor as if it were a birthday gift.

Their billions of dollars in profit could've started this process decades ago. They're just doing it now because they need to keep pace with AI data processing demands. It's a net-zero strategy.

I'm looking at black holes to power my energy needs!

First things first...I will create a black hole here on Earth. This is very complicated and I will have to invent a ton of technology to get that done. That's as far as I can think of right now. Whenever we have the black hole, we'll have a meeting to figure out the rest of the plan.

Figure out how to deal with nuclear waste and maybe.

[-] Emi@ani.social 8 points 18 hours ago

I thought it's already figured out, recycle it like in France.

[-] funtrek@discuss.tchncs.de 0 points 6 hours ago

There is no recycling of nuclear waste. Nowhere.

[-] Emi@ani.social 2 points 6 hours ago

Nuclear reprocessing then if you insist on right wording.

No. I’m a huge fan of the nuclear fusion reactor in the sky.

Not figured out here in the states. They just turn the site into a nuke waste dump.

[-] Zangoose@lemmy.world 5 points 18 hours ago

There are actually relatively easy (easy compared to building a nuclear reactor) ways to deal with the waste that involve mixing it with concrete and glass so it can be safely stored in a way that won't impact the surrounding environment. Kyle Hill has a great video about this on YouTube: https://youtu.be/4aUODXeAM-k

Amazon prime uranium deliveries.

[-] Johnmannesca@lemmy.world 2 points 15 hours ago

*Not available in Iran

[-] Carmakazi@lemmy.world 4 points 19 hours ago

I thought that the solution there has always been to bury it in desert bunkers for 10,000 years.

If we're still around by the time that becomes too cumbersome we are hopefully space-faring and then yeeting it into Jupiter becomes an option.
