Because people keep asking, the Story of The Lizard In That Dude's Leg. Some caveats: 1. This happened more than twenty years ago. There are no pictures. There was a small article in a local paper with, again, no pictures (I'm assuming that's what the producers of 9-1-1: LONE STAR found).

The reality of long wall coal mining. Once healthy creeks in the Sydney catchment have become dead zones. This was predicted 20 years ago, yet we still went ahead on the false hope that engineers hired by coal mines would fix it. www.smh.com.au/environment/...

Once healthy creeks in the Sydney catchment have become dead zones. Now scientists know why

New research provides scientific evidence that longwall mining is draining endangered upland swamps, eroding water quality and creating fire risk.

Really cannot stress enough how perfect for each other the AI grifters and the nuclear grifters are (neither are going to grow anywhere near as huge as they plan but it's tough to see that either really care that much as long as the stocks get pumped today and tomorrow)

ig Tech is increasingly turning towards nuclear energy to meet the ever-increasing power demands of their data centers, with Nvidia's CEO Jensen Huang recently indicating that nuclear power could be a viable option to power the company's energy needs. This news comes after Microsoft's recent deal to reactivate the Three Mile Island nuclear facility to power its data centers in the area.

In an interview with Bloomberg Television, Huang said that Nvidia could be interested in nuclear power as part of its broader strategy to diversify the energy sources that power its data centers.

"Nuclear is wonderful as one of the sources of energy, one of the sources of sustainable energy. It won't be the only one. We're going to need energy from all sources and balance the availability and the cost of energy as well as the sustainability over time."

The idea of powering data centers with nuclear energy has become a trend within Big Tech as companies such as Nvidia, Microsoft, and even Amazon and G

this thread tho

i don't understand this economy when nursing homes are so expensive they bankrupt our grandparents but nursing home aides need to use food banks.

daycare is so expensive it eats up one parent's entire paycheck and yet daycare providers only make $10/hr and need second jobs.

First insulin injection in 1922 -> "A 25-year-old woman with type 1 diabetes started producing her own insulin less than three months after receiving a transplant of reprogrammed stem cells. She is the first person with the disease to be treated using cells that were extracted from her own body."🧪⚕️

Stem cells reverse woman’s diabetes — a world first

Framing point of order: they did NOT "cut te reo Māori to boost maths". They gave huge tax cuts to landlords and then chose to cut te reo Māori. This is not a competition between maths and language. It's a strategy to devalue ALL public education.

$30m cut from te reo Māori programme to boost maths curriculum

Education Minister Erica Stanford said the te reo Māori initiative lacked accreditation.
