dingy harry reid raised obstacles to bringing Yucca Mountain nuclear storage repository online after earmarking tens of billions $$$ to Nevada companies to build it. Yucca Mountain could still be brought into operation, it takes some political will to get it done.

I'm of the end of the boomers and in grade school in the 60s tantalized by atomic power and the space race. Can recall predictions that nuclear power would be so efficient and inexpensive that electricity would be essentially free in the near future. Then came Three Mile Island which coincided with that propaganda movie China Syndrome, and finally Chernobyl a decade later, fueling the wacko enviro-anti-nuke cabal to create a regulatory system to kill nuclear power.

highly doubtful that the passengers paid for the ride, they were mostly there to be companions for lauren sanchez as this was alleged to be jeff's wedding gift to her

MSG group built the Sphere Studios complex just across the street from Bob Hope Burbank Airport, it's apparently 1/4 scale of the one in Las Vegas. The outside shell is stretched black fabric and has no displays, the inside has screens like the giant Vegas one. I see it every time I take a flight at BUR, have been looking for a way to get a tour of the facility.

Boeing should never have given up on their original idea to build an enlarged type of X-37 spaceship that would have been man-rated for up to 6 crew, using a proven propulsion and recovery technology. Instead they let NASA bully them into embarking on a brand new space capsule from scratch.

BAS neglected to adjust their clock about a year ago when Biden's UKR policies caused Putin to threaten launching actual nuclear warheads into Ukraine and even threatened USA in the same breath. One would presume that the doomsday clock should have been set at 1 second before midnight on that day, but lo and behold it wasn't even thought of.

Mazda has been quietly working jointly with Toyota to refine a miniature Wankel engine to serve as a battery charging generator that would not be in the drivetrain, sort of like a diesel-electric that trains and submarines use. Haven't seen any prototypes in a couple years, since the concept was announced about 5 years ago.

I'm an old stickshift driver and did end up with a Nissan Murano as a rental car some years ago, it was the most horrid experience, it felt like the vehicle was always in a mud pit slogging its way along. No wonder Nissan is dying off with those terrible CVT boxes.

nothing intelligent squares with their climate theories cuz it's all bunkum

Isn't this the aircraft that F-35 JPO inserted into their Instagram tribute social media for 2024 Veteran's Day festivities

I miss the old American cars of the 60s-70s that had the gas door behind the rear fold down license plate

older types of lamp post chargers do have a cord built-in, they are around on various streets in Los Angeles. there's not many because street parking is valuable and the trade off of losing a usable parking spot is too high, so grocery stores are adding charge stations to their parking lots.

that's part of the vintage experience
