Or staying up longer than you should… or looking at screens too long… or…

Oy, no need to call me out like that... I should turn off my phone.

Wasn't this on an episode of Trash Future?

That man's pedantry is truly beyond parody.

Yes, power output can be regulated in nuclear energy. It is, however, not economical to do so most off the time. Building a nuclear reactor is a massive capital investment, so any time you're not running at 100% you are increasing your payback time, which leads to more expensive electricity.

That technology is nowhere near mature enough to provide a solution to the mentioned problems in the next decade or two.

I agree with the comic. I do however disagree with the title. I think the Hamas' attack shouldn't to be called "resistance", just as Israel's response shouldn't be called "self defense".

Well, if you don't care if either party wins, vote third party. However, if you really dislike the idea of one party winning over the other, despite hating both, you should really think about how that vote is actually going to affect the future.

That's not the way it should be, but that's the way it is.

Depends on the voting system tbf. In FPTP, unless one party is extremely unpopular, it often supports your political opponents when you vote third party.

This is the tunnelbak where the main protests are. The speed limit is actually 70 km/h as shown by the sign visible in the street view. It is about 500 meters from where the A12 ends at the corner of the Malieveld.

I think it is unfair to describe "holding a pre-announced protest" as "jumping into traffic". I imagine they take care to do it safely.

I think it should also be noted that the road is located directly between parliament and the ministry of economic affairs and climate.

Made this about a year ago and it has been aging pretty well. About 12% ABV. I think it still has a slight off-flavour, but that's probably due to not using the best honey.
