With Daylight Savings once again coming up, it never fails for it to spark discussions about its purpose in modern times. People hate it widely while few seem to be okay with it and depending where you live, others don't even know what the deal is.

Politicians have actually put it on the docket to be voted on, but seems to have lost traction. Quite frankly, this is an issue that should be done and over with. Just end it, but please end it when we have the clocks dialed back than forward, because I wouldn't like time going faster than it already is.

Ah, that explains the weird response I got about lemmy.zip being fascist, thank you for explaining it!

You are absolutely right, nuclear is not the solution, it is an interim solution giving us 100-200 years of remarkably clean energy, if we designed a standard reactor that could be built inside existing fossil power plants, I think we could cut down on the build time by 80%, though that requires that we have approved designs.

I also believe that we in Sweden/Scandinavia should build large underground nuclear waste disposal sites, and offer to take care of nuclear waste from around the world, we have stable bedrock, our politics have been stable for decades. If would be a nice income stream while solving the issue for other countries. It has to be done, and we are well suited for it.
