Why Did Google Buy A Nuclear Power Plant?

its not nuclear fear, its nuclear WASTE, which is the problem. It can easily be used for nuclear bombs and is super radiactive for the rest of our lives. We cant easily dig a cave and put it all in because if an earthquake or something else would crack these caves and the waste would run into our ground water we are fucked. And its not like there was a nuclear accident in ukraine or in fukushima, noooooo

Another reason people view nuclear reactors as dangerous could also MAYBE be because of Chernobyl 👀

Bandi Namco must've watched Office Space recently

Didn’t people get cancer from Three Mile Island?

Damn that's crazy I think someone should invent a sport that's all about kicking a ball around

Turn every Red Box machine into a Doom arcade cabnet

bro turn ur mic down

Anyone here looking for good stocks to buy based on the nuclear news? I've done the hard work for you. (Still, DYOR)

Isn't the Nuclear Power Plant plan from all these tech companies just vertical integration? I agree that the investments in the tech is great, like from Google, but Microsoft straight up buying a plant and using the energy for their dataservers sounds like vertical integration.

As a nuclear engineer who missed the VOD atrioc did an alright job but missed some key points.

Many SMR designs have been in the works before the AI tech boom, the military has been pushing for the SMR design as an alternative to desiel generators for a while now.

2) Their are 2 perceived issues with nuclear energy in the U.S Safety and Waste. Saftey is largely based on misconceptions but Waste is a real issue that the US does not have for a bunch of reasons.

3) The biggest hurdle to all of this are the regulations. Because the US has not commissioned a new reactor in decades the process to get a new novel reactor design just approved before anything is built will take a decade with the way the NRC is set up.

4) As more of a cautionary tale, NuScale was a small startup trying to desing a SMR. It was seen as one of the leading SMR designs as they were the furthest along in the regulator process and probably would have been first to market. However, last year the company imploded as investors pulled out and the funding dried up.

5) nuclear has traditionally been a base load power producer and cant follow demand. All this means is that it needs to be sublemented by something else and renewables are generally great at this.

To clarify nuclear is way better than alot of energy sources but their are real limitations and more than anything political and economic issues that need to be overcome before it makes a true renaissance.

Great video though.

Finish editing the new Hitman horse, I don’t have tin take arch that 3 hour stream (I watched 30 min to count as a View) but bro I will watch a. 30-40 min version on this channel lol

Nuclear is also very expensive. But yea...

I work next to a Spirit Halloween. Learned a bit about them... they classify their job positions as seasonal, so their workers get low pay and no benefits (discount-types aside).
They produce an INSANE amount of garbage, both via products and via production/running their stores, and barely recycle in general.
Their employees are generally desperate for work or do it part-time during school, and pretty much none of them actually enjoy it.
They have insane turnover, and cause problems for the businesses around them each year due to having mostly all new management each time.

Hoping that, as they grow (since they're on the rise) enough social pressure will hit them to force them to stop treating their employees and the environment like trash.

Nuclear energy was the point when lefties started to show their nonesense face.

Back in my hometown there was a store called Christmas Tree Shop. And they were open year round selling stuff for every holiday during the year.
Last minute Christmas shopping? They got you.
Need to buy stuff for your Valentine? They got you.
Christmas trees galore in winter.
Need beach chairs or pool inflatables for your summer swimming? They got you.
I was so confused lol.

:)

Youve heard of AI-washing Third World workers, now get ready for Nuclear-washing oil energy

We need to do with Redbox what Japan did with soda machines. Used panty dispensers.

But imagine how ineffective is world without data centers (internet) the energy consumption would be much higher despite it will consume 10% in 2030 still considerably less consumption altogether than without internet

Unrelated to anything so feel free to skip reading, but you’re the reason I got stoked on watching streamers through your hitman vids. You helped me out in a weird funk; I know it’ll go unread, but this comment was just meant to convey gratitude homie; controversies or whatever - keep doing what you do - bald of brothers - cheers

So noones talking about nuclear waste and the non solution about a final deposit for it?

Hey man, thanks for making content

i pray to god the bandai namco thing doesn't affect blue protocol ;-; i've been waiting for YEARS

So stupid. Nuclear is awesome but it doesn't make money. THE SECOND it becomes profitable, they start building them. But not for everyone. Just big corps.

Also we need to start moving federal obligations to State governments. It's too impossible for a federal government to handle so many things for so many states.

Can you talk about how solar panels have been lowered cost and it’s rise and how china producdes double the demand lowering the cost even more

For banishment rooms: why don’t you just go out all night and sleep in the room ?

isnt rocket money the scam thing one paul brothers or someone made or was it something else ?

Golden Rule of the Internet: If it has a screen and can be controlled, Doom will be played on it.

Bandai Namco paying people to do Mr Beast challenges

BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM

There are some rather serious national security implications with China trying to tax forign land their rich citizens own too as for the last couple decades Chinese people & businesses have been specifically buying land all around military bases, this has rather serious implications given the CCP's increasing control & how they have an agent in every business over a certin size.

In fairness to Costco they've been selling gold bars for years now.
Playinum bars are new though.

I LOVE NUCLEAR POWER!!!!

Musk is paying people $1,000,000 a day to sign PAC petitions around the first amendment and gun ownership rights

I really hope Nintendo names the next switch the sWIItch. That way they can profit off of their WII popularity

No mention of the issue of lomg term nuclear waste storage?

You could have told me the gold bars at Costco thing was an Onion article and I would have believed it

Finally, a reason for me to give Big Tech a little respect.

To be clear, pretty much no data centers of any considerable size look anything like the pictures you see of pretty server cabinets with cool green/blue lighting.

They are just big brightly lit warehouses that are pretty consistently messy looking from the volume of network cables that have to be run and replaced with relative frequency.

I forgot to return wipeout for the Wii at a Redbox 10 years ago. I’m glad I get to keep it!

thank you eriksenchee for the mario galaxy 2 chompworks galaxy soundtrack.

I can't believe 60% of new laws in China reference how small Xi Jinping's pp is

Cost co should allow you to sell the gold back (also for a nominal fee) and make money both ways. They could literally just turn around and sell it again. Rinse and repeat.

I’ve had so many people when I ask why they don’t like nuclear energy just say Chernobyl as if we are still on the same level as crumbling Soviet Union in their safety measures and levels of science my job can almost daily it is the safest energy source we have because we know so much about it and how predictable it is like how it takes just a small a shape to stop it from leaking because radiation can only travel in straight lines

Welcome to Costco

I love you

Bandai is basically doing constructive dismissal

Im new to atriocs channel, where does glizzy hands come from? I need a lore deep dive

the image in the thumbnail implies that the companies bought the cooling towers to the reactor and not the reactor itself
