When the Nuclear Nerds tell you nuclear waste is a small problem, easily and cheaply dealt with, don't believe them. When they say decommissioning old, obsolete reactors is not a problem, don't believe them. Never mind the 10,000 year problem, the 10 and 100 year problems are hard enough. And horribly expensive.

> Plans to clean up three of its worst ponds – which contain hazardous nuclear sludge that must be painstakingly removed > One pond, the Magnox swarf storage silo, is leaking 2,100 litres of contaminated water each day > Sellafield had “retrieved much less waste than it had planned” since 2020, it said. > The NDA believes the cost of decommissioning Sellafield could range from £116bn to £253bn, depending on the length and complexity of the cleanup.

Prison should not be used for punishment. It should only be used to protect society by excluding people from society that are a danger to it.

> "All that is needed is a shift of primary assumption—from “civilization might end at any moment” to “civilization will keep going for a long time.” We’re not at the end of civilization’s story. We’re in the middle of it" There's just the small problems of dealing with climate change and managing the transition from 8b to 10b to 1b people and a sustainable world. Without hitting the resource and pollution constraints along the way.

What we actually got:- Fight every possible Brexit as not hard enough until Theresa May can be replaced. Then insert Johnson. 80MP Majority, 220k dead and a broken nation going down the pan. Rich pickings for disaster capitalists. There are huge fortunes to be made on the way down.

What Theresa May (PM) could have done. "You asked us to try and find a way of leaving the EU. Well, we've done our best and we can't find any sensible way of doing that. So we've decided to cancel Article 50 and call the whole thing off. Here's my resignation".

70% of Labour voters want Brexit renegotiated and ideally. reversed. Starmer and Labour policy is no re-entry to the SIngle Market or Customs Union and no freedom of movement. instead "a bespoke deal similar to the way Norway and Switzerland approach the issue." Checks notes: Norway+Switzerland are broadly in the single market and Schengen. With a few market exceptions. The UK should be in both. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/brexit-labour-starmer-single-market-b2576534.html

The basic tax allowance should have a triple lock. But it's kind of OK to freeze the higher tax bands. All tax should aim to be progressive. Especially Income tax and NI. Freezing the basic tax allowance and raising either employee or employer NI is always going to be regressive. We should be aiming to lift the working poor out of paying income tax at all. https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2024/oct/21/reeves-income-tax-plan-will-hurt-working-people-and-increase-inequality-even-more

And it smells and sticks to your boots when spread on the fields. Muck spreading is just one of those smelly operations on the farm. But he smell of human biosolids is particularly unpleasant.
# · Mastodon
Are there any safe, economic options for disposal of biosolids from the Sewage Treatment industry? Landfill? Burning? Are there any economic options for treating biosolids for all known pathogens and polluting substances prior to turning them into fertiliser sludge? I get that they are now a profit centre or zero cost option for the STW industry, but only because real safe treatment is avoided because it's too expensive. https://archive.is/pi5Ca

On some combinations of android version and manufacturer there's a display option or a developer option to hide or show the camera cutout. On Samsung you can do this by app. But Android 13, Nokia doesn't have the options. I've been unable to find any official Amazon way of reporting or tracking the bug. I'm not alone, other people have found the same bug.

Android Kindle app. Lost bottom footer and page numbers in recent update. It appears to be caused by Kindle, Android, Nokia refusing to use the top line containing the camera cutout as Kindle goes full screen. This shifts the display one line down so the footer containing the page numbers or progress disappears off the bottom of the screen. Display landscape and the footer appears but the text moves to the right. Turning off the top line clock doesn't help.

Labour has done a lot in 100 days https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1840764236240146570.html What it hasn't done:- - Recognised that Brexit is disastrous - Implemented any Covid mitigations - Addressed the school illness problem - Changed Covid policies or the orgs setting them - Done anything to rein in Israel
