Nah, it's cause it's a literal fuckton of money which should go towards making renewables which are already cheaper than coal.

That and the fact these style of reactors have failed already multiple times.

And the he potential payoff is actual reactors in the late 2030s.

Why waste more time not combating the climate crisis?

Well, for starters, the scientific method involves failures, setbacks, unforeseen events, etc. That's just part of doing business in a science heavy industry. Secondly, do you have a grudge Copenhagen Atomics or something, or are you just that pessimistic?

If we don't try for greater things, then lesser will become the norm.

Copenhagen Atomics are building what they believe will be the world’s first commercial thorium reactor.

We've seen them fail before. Can't wait to see another

Did y'all remember to Pokemon GO to the polls?

Cheers! ^^

Done. Thanks.

Eneloops for life!

Hi there, could you also add the video duration in brackets to your title like this: [12:34]

We require that in this community so people can better choose a video based on the time they have available for a meal :)

Thanks for letting me know. I'm testing out a different client today and it looks like trying to add the thumbnail changed it from a link post to a image post. It's fixed now.

You didn't link the video.

I await the video about the NiMH alternative, because I am living that dream.

Road Guy Rob's topic is c/mildlyinteresting to me, I like engineering videos but it's not my primary topic or even top 3... but he brings such a love of the craft of indie video production to every one that for me they're an instant watch whenever a new one pops up.

I don't like what Youtube has become and long term I'm trying to slowly disconnect from it (using the Unhook browser extension and other means) but it seems like Rob is doing his best to thread the needle on being able to produce and publish where the eyeballs are while not being corrupted by the platform. For anybody who gives a crap where their "content" comes from, if you have any interest at all in the topic, IMO his channel is worth a sub. Hopefully someday we'll see him on Peertube.

It would be a playlist of the videos that people post in this community, I'm not making any videos. Right now I manually open videos from this community and save it to YouTube to watch later, and each one takes a while to load.

As for AI use in the setup, I asked LLMs some questions to figure out how to configure the Google account / YouTube permissions, because the official guides seemed out of date and the third party guides contradicted each other. It feels like they don't maintain proper guides anymore

The actual code is fairly minimal, and easy to look over. Right now the setup is:

• Use the Lemmy API to check for the latest posts, and remove duplicates / posts that are too new
• Use the YouTube API with my account and a pre-configured playlist, and replace all the videos with the new set
• repeat on a reasonable schedule
• docker container so that it's easy for me to manage

I was going to connect it to a YouTube account and that be the source of truth. I'm not as familiar with invidious/piped, but it should be possible to add all of those links based off of the YouTube playlist? This community doesn't have any rules about what site the videos come from, but the vast majority seem to be from YouTube.

Re-uploading on PeerTube would be a lot more complicated, and the legal side gets more complicated

Will this be slopspawn?

Excellent idea! Will you have it hosted directly as a YouTube playlist, on Invidious/Piped, or reuploaded on PeerTube?

That's why it's called the Iodine Quotient

I had a second degree relative (since deceased) whose development was profoundly affected by cretinism due to iodine deficiency. It more or less completely destroyed his life, he never learned to speak and had an IQ estimated at 30-40. Iodized salt hit the US market just 2 or 3 years after he was born.

I'm a foodie, and because of that experience in my family I use Morton's iodized salt in most applications, and kosher salt for special purposes (in my case focaccia more often than meat) just like suggested in the video. It tastes fine.

Truly is, and the soundtrack for this one is particularly good ^^

It’s always a treat when Posy posts a new video.

Yeah ffs most of america is cyberpunk

Cameras and AI staring at poor people who can't afford to go to the doctor... That is pretty cyberpunk

I came from a metro with a very good water system and my first college had well water. I spit it out the first time I drank at a fountain.

This was a great video, love rabbit holes so guess I found a good new channel. Based on the YT comments, the host worked with Veritasium before.

It kinda looks the same to me.
