There's precedents on deleting your google account and denying credit card transaction as "sanction". I won't be surprised other US-based platforms to follow suits. This just highlights ever increasing need of digital and financial sovereignty

In Asia preference toward lighter skin tone existed before race idea introduced. Basically peasants working outside got tanned vs nobles staying indoors, it was class-based discrimination. It's by no means pretty back then and later meld with western racism and got messier

Spacial radiation from point source reduces by square of distance, obstacles also increase your odds of survival. So just take cover/few meters away can be big deal for this case (his body worked as the cover to others too).

However, what really happens beyond critical acute radiation threshold is truely gruesome and utterly untreatable, so I wouldn't make light of such case in any way.

As someone educated in Japanese subculture I thought it was testing knowledge of hasshaku-sama (urban legend of 8 ft tall mistress, you may also find spicy contemporary interpretation too).

People praising this don't read "as reasonablly" clause. There's already wiggle room and political/economic climate involved in how to implement (also, ALARA is not only covering sub microSv/yr realm where background Radiation is about). Moving away from it can certainly loosen the grip in the future, likely at the expence of onsite workers.

All I knew was that Wizards of the Coast used them to seize MTG cards from a youtuber, but TIL their rich history of union busting.

It just looks like personal blocklist considering some users appear on the blocklist more than once (though regular blocklist doesn't allow duplicate)

I just wander what would be like Steam with Valve bandcamp style physical merch selection. haven't cheched but atleast itch.io wont forbid to put link to their physical merch store?

I remember some prof joked on their lecture, that they've been grilled once in EV industry after they presented the environmtal impact comparison between legacy car and EV that includes lithium mining, refinement, waste management cost and how many miles EV needs to offset such cost with its "green fuel" (spoiler: a lot). It was nearly decade ago and I don't know their formula holds today, but it's still plausible such negative externality being overlooked and remaining.

I'm in the picture, will it make me a princess?

Nuclear plant has been historically built nearby water body without water loss (evaporating). Shift to open system happened mostly in US due to regulation in response to marine environment protection. However majority of plants are still located in coast side (UK, Korea, Japan, Finland etc) using sea water, inland one still utilize river water (France).

For new US reactors likely employ open system so your water concern stands, though its open evaporation system is optimized better than unoptimized data center ones.

Closed watet system is expensive and less scalable construction wise.

Nuclear plant employs it because the water has direct contact to the nuclear fuel, containing radioactive minerals. It cannot be released outside without treatment. It is necessity than choice. Companies would've chosen open water system if regulation allowed to so that they don't have to pay the cleanup fee.
