Good luck getting -2/3- 3/4 of the states to ratify it.

Except for this law.
IANAL, he is probably breaking other laws too.
Wow, some industry lobbyists got government funding, amazing.
Not just in the US, China too is building nuclear reactors faster than any other country
Global fossil fuel subsidies are at $7 trillion, so I guess those are really relevant to our future as well!
No of course not. The subsidies at this point at a crime against humanity.
I don’t want developing countries to waste their money on nuclear power when they can get much more cost effective renewables.
If the renewables are cost effective and provide stable power then I too want them to be priority -near zero risks-, but more importantly industry and business will seek them on their own. I just hold that nuclear power should be part of the mix. Take the UAE for example it is investing in both nuclear and solar.
nuclear power isn’t relevant anymore.
that’s not true. you just don’t want developing countries to have nuclear power.
Stallman warned us, we didn’t listen.
I’m glad to see BadVista still up https://badvista.fsf.org/blog/view/?set_language=en
At what point does this all just become sinophobia?
“Nuclear for me but not for thee”.
The optimal temperature for solar panels to operate efficiently is typically around 25°C (77°F).
It is 34°C (93°F) at night.
Agreed. Developing countries need clean and affordable energy
Not as bad as you make it out to be, and I actually worked in the US with more Chinese engineers than US engineers.
It is not illegal is it?
If it is legal, then thank you China for the free backup.
A lot of progress needs to be made and laws and regulations are slow to catch up, but at least things are trending in the right direction:
Qatar takes action to protect workers from extreme heat
UAE’s midday break for outdoor workers begins on June 15
As opposed to regressing:
Florida joins Texas in banning local heat protections for outdoor workers
“Arabs bad. must have nefarious motive”
So they are forcing their own interpretation of Christianity on everyone? I guess that the US doesn’t have separate courts for other religions… So no one’s allowed divorce even if allowed in their religion? this can’t be legal.
To think that the caliphate at least allowed Jews and Christians to have their own religious courts.
They can’t prohibit it for other faiths though. Jews, Muslims, and so on can still divorce… right?
At least the Fediverse exists.
Under the law in Texas, doctors who perform abortions risk life in prison, fines of up to $100,000 and revocation of their state medical licenses.
This is excessive. Way too much. Cruel and unusual punishment is against the US constitution.
Seriously, just consider the following from bad evil theocratic authoritarian Saudi Arabia:
Expat doctor, nurse arrested in Saudi Arabia over unsafe abortions
The Ministry of Health in Riyadh referred the two medical professionals to the public prosecutor, and they face imprisonment for up to six months and a fine of up to $26,000 (100,000 riyals).
What is the punishment for a doctor performing an illegal abortion in Texas?
Haaretz, an Israeli newspaper, had an interesting article about abortion laws in some US states and how they compare back in 2019 before Roe v. Wade was repealed. Alabama, Iran, or Saudi Arabia? We Checked Where Abortion Laws Are Better for Women
Remember when Google used to give good search results?
That’s even harder.
