Anime is good too but this not the thread for it, the chapo thread is.

I don't know how long this'll stay unfixed, but this article linked episode 10 of the Franklin videos instead of a preview of the new Cuphead patch.

Free Cuphead update adds character selection and brand new animation

I saw some trailer for a TV mini-series on Chernobyl. It seemed to be an irresponsible portrayal, especially given the impending doom we are facing from fossil fuels.

I was looking for background noise while working the spreadsheet mines and watched a real estate presentation on "the future of rentals". They seemed unconcerned with driving forces behind the trends, or the conclusions it was leading to. To be expected from rent seekers.

Anyone have any documentaries on more dense housing? Single family homes can be nice and all, but I'd like to know more about what has been done/is being done/is being planned to make areas more livable and resource efficient.

Seemed like a pretty accurate portrayal of events from the couple of minutes in the trailer. Of course they're gonna dramatize it.

It's one thing to dramatize real events, another thing entirely to blatantly lie about the effects (looking at you Helen Caldicott :mad:)

About a decade ago public opinion of nuclear power was a lot more positive and the industry was having a little boom, they called it the "Nuclear Renaissance".

Then Fukushima happened...

TEPCO was publicly traded before 3/11, with a minority of shares held by the government, wasn't it?

I suppose "operate" in the direct sense was an inaccurate term to use, but the government is still responsible for letting private companies operate nuclear reactors without proper oversight and regulation.

Regardless, if your main takeaway from Fukushima was "oh no, now people will be less positively inclined towards nuclear power" (which was a pretty common sentiment around these parts back in 2011 at least), then I think it's worth taking a moment to consider if any government (or private company) you know of seems like it should be trusted to not make similar or even worse oversights in the name of profit (and if your answer is "yes", does that still hold true under all conceivable future administrations?).
