Young climate activist tells Greenpeace to drop ‘old-fashioned’ anti-nuclear stance

    I did not say it was safe, I said after a few decades is far easier to process. It does not remain "crazy" high radioactive for thousands of years - that is pure hyperbole. The chart attached illustrates radiotoxicity if ingested - and no one advises anyone to eat nuclear waste.

    Ps. There is a country which has solved long term storage. Guess where I live.

    Inaccurate. To take it back to basics:

    Radioactive material radiates, because it decays. The more it radiates, the faster it decays. The highest level radioactive material from nuclear fission reactors has half-life measured in decades (30 years), that is, half of it will decay in that time. It does NOT take thousands of years. Conversely, the long-lived isotopes radiate much less, thus are easier to store and process.

    The Big Social score so far: \- Twitter: burning \- Reddit: detonated a bomb under itself \- Meta: rumored to join [#ActivityPub](https://mas.to/tags/ActivityPub) with a new app \- YouTube: videos were always 2nd to "native" ones on the other networks, but they could trivially open an [#ActivityPub](https://mas.to/tags/ActivityPub) firehose (and maintain their preroll ads while doing so) \- rest of Google: never found organic success and don't have a bet in the game apart from wanting to index everything No predictions here, just stating the obvious.

    Reddit perma-banning account promoting Lemmy has Streisand effect
  • osma osma Now 100%

    Hilarious that a #HackerNews top voted comment on a post wrt #Reddit censoring mentions of #Lemmy effectively argues that the latter is "too geeky and hard to use" and that the former two won't be displaced because they're well known and easy to approach.

    These people have ZERO self awareness. Never mind understanding about the legacy of their forums.

  • Why has [#Strava](https://mas.to/tags/Strava) not embraced [#ActivityPub](https://mas.to/tags/ActivityPub)? It doesn't seem like at all a stretch to have the private/followers-only/everyone model map to strava.social fedi visibility. For that matter, why aren't [#Komoot](https://mas.to/tags/Komoot) or [#GarminConnect](https://mas.to/tags/GarminConnect) jumping on the opportunity? Seems like easy way to promote both fitness and their own apps.

    The thing about Twitter is that it really lacks a lot of the features you'd expect from a true Mastodon replacement.

    @deriamis @estrapade @ajsadauskas well in that case we're in agreement. As far as implementation, I'd like to see a return to self-owned domains. I think identities are in general valuable and would prefer people to not only have more control over theirs, but responsibility over the outcomes, too.

    @deriamis @estrapade @ajsadauskas before commercial interests required it, there were no standardized and generally supported means to encrypt any transaction of information either. You may not like the concept of having commercial entities on your Internet, but you wouldn't have one without them.

    @deriamis @estrapade @ajsadauskas on the early nineties a lot of people didn't see enabling "corporatized presence" being all that valuable on the Internet. Fortunately though, the web didn't prevent it, either.

    @deriamis @estrapade @ajsadauskas except that Bluesky protocol has some clear advantages over ActivityPub on the identity front. On the other hand, on the posts side, it is mostly a reimplementation of Twitter model without any meaningful thought to generalizing.
