Smallman1 Amps I wonder how much more expensive tokamak power will be than fossil fuels or renewables? I often wonder the same thing Amps.
Smallman1 Was in glorious Whitstabubble yesterday. The sunshine, beers and bants (from me) were absolutely sensaysh!
Mad_Cyril Awesome reminder of how small we are in the scheme of things https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2025/aug/19/a-climate-of-unparalleled-malevolence-are-we-on-our-way-to-the-sixth-major-mass-extinction Might be a bit lengthy for some
bosstrabs Mad_Cyril MiliBLAND having the old reg I like this one, I also heard MiliBRAND (referring to both brothers) by a mate of mine (not Amps) who is staunch Old Labour/Corbynite furious with the Blairite takeover of the upper positions in the party (when Ed became leader and David had been Foreign Secretary).
bosstrabs My favourite politician of recent years is Mark Oaten, who walked around with beshitted underwear in his briefcase (no pun intended) before being forced to withdraw from the LibDem leadership race (*allegedly).
Dubman Amps Our problem is that we don’t have enough storage facilities. And also we also use a lot of gas and our electricity is based on the price of gas which is why our bills are so high
Amps Dubman Our Britain? Or Casa Dubman? Dubman we don’t have enough storage facilities. Do you believe this to be an unsurmountable issue like ‘taxing the rich’ or something that can be solved with a simple plan and some cash?
Dubman Amps The uk And the costs to build storage for electricity. I sometimes do work for a few companies that sell solar panels for domestic use. Earlier this year I took a load of batteries to a house so he could store his electricity from his solar panels. They cost 7k. It’s expensive
Amps Dubman No argument from me, but it can all be solved if their was some political will and all our politicians weren’t capitalist shit cunts. Imagine taxing some of the billions made by the energy companies and then using that cash to subsidise battery prices. Wild.
Along_the_Wire Dubman it’s expensive up front, but it pays back and saves you money in the mid to long-term. Can’t help but think that this fella considered that when he made the purchase.
