So a nucler reactor is just a kettle with an extra spicy heating element?
Yes. Water + spicy rocks. Everything else is solar power, which is also nuclear power, but with the spiciness in the sky instead.
Fun fact. Coal plants release more radioactive materials than nuclear plants.]
Except the ones that blew up. Those ones were extra spicy.
Except, even then, an average coal plant will release more radioactive material over its lifetime than Fukushima did.
It's just Chernobyl that you have to top. And even then there are coal plants that come close.
Now, it's not apples to apples. Coal plants release uranium and thorium. Not ceasium and strontium.
But yeah, never go swimming in a coal plant ash pit. For more than the obvious reasons.
How many average coal plants per Chernobyl though. I suspect that number is surprising lower than the total number of coal plants.
- Solar panels: Direct sky-spiciness to electricity conversion
- Wind: Sky-spiciness made the air move
- Hydroelectric: Sky-spiciness lifted the water up, gravity brings it down
- Fossil fuels: Really old stored sky-spiciness from ancient plants
Nuclear: the sky spiciness got too spicy and turned into spicy rocks
Geothermal?
Geothermal: Incredibly old sky-spiciness from far, far away that Earth collected to slowly release.
A lot of that heat comes from decay of radioactive isotopes deep in the Earth. Still spicy rocks.
I mean, radioactive isotopes are formed in supernovae, so it's really just solar power from a different sun, right?
it's spicy rocks all the way down.
All power is nuclear power when you keep digging, whether rocks come into play or not!
It's all gravity in the end. Or probably middle but I don't know why gravity, so that's as far as I can reduce it.
Everything we see around us is just hydrogen trying to get closer to the middle of the biggest hydrogen party it can find in the general vicinity. And we were all once part of at least one massive party that eventually got a bit out of hand when we all tried to get so close together we bounced off of a neutron star before it collapsed into a black hole.
Most power generation is just steam spinning turbines. Solar’s just weird. Wind cuts out the steam loop.
Reflective solar is normal at least. But photovoltaics are weird. Even weirder is that they’re LEDs backwards, and the fact that transistors just are like that is why they’re encased in black plastic
Unless you WANT your transistor to be this way and use it so you put an actual led inside the plastic as well to mess with (i.e. turn on and off) the transistor!
Also I would argue that wind could also be considered 'steam' turning a turbine. It's just vapour pressure 'steam' with a LOT of other pollutants which somehow increase the efficiency!
What about hydro electric? It uses cold steam
Ooh, cold steam burns are the worst!
Not spicy. Everyone knows nuclear power is lemon-lime flavored.
Cherenkov: The blue raspberry of nuclear radiation
That moment when you take a drag of your Blue Raspberry vape and the dosimeter next to you maxes out.
NICO is your friend https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/NICO_Clean_Tobacco_Card
Adding more radiation to tobacco. Sure.
But slightly serious here. The actual mechanism of about 75% of tobacco related cancer, is the fact that tobacco leaves bioaccumulate natural radioactive elements from the soil.
If you smoke, you have radioactive lead and polonium in your lungs.
Taste: slightly metallic, not great, not terrible.
A plausible Nile Red quote.
No! I vanted orange!
The same guy who deliberately messed with the vending machine will also intentionally misplace the delivery of the skull gun aug module, smh.
The best part of this game is that this conspiracy theory is incorrect. Fema killing Americans, illuminati, majestic 7, area 51: all real. Workplace persecution for a distrusted wounded war veteran?: crazed paranoia
That's not a spicy challenge id be willing to try.
