  1. Maybe remove the video and replace with a blank text file with the same name (and extension).
  2. Deaths per TWH by energy source. This doesn't even take into account deaths from poor air quality etc, which are hard to quantify. Coal plants also put out far more radioactivity/year than nuclear.
  3. I don't think that's in GAJ. I press the right mouse key and move the mouse and for free-look.
  4. I didn't want to say but you're looking a bit pale there Doug. You sure you're feeling OK?
  5. d/t, do you even read these things before you post them? Location: He's assuming a certain MW o/p - why? Lifetime: Another assumption based on generation 1 stations. Nuclear waste: The only reason there's so much waste produced now is because the G1 reactors were built to create material for weapons. Current designs create little to no waste. Besides, if it's such a problem dig holes in front of tectonic subduction zones - the material will return to the core soon enough. “Accident rate: To date, there have been 11 nuclear accidents at the level of a full or partial core-melt.” So what? Core melt != THE END OF THE WORLD. In Three Mile Island the molten mass froze when it hit the colder reactor vessel, and stopped its downward journey at five-eights of an inch through the five-inch thick vessel wall. I've no data on Fukushima yet. Chernobyl had no containment vessel – total deaths, 52. Proliferation: Yes, true. But also true of a lot of chemical processes etc. Uranium abundance: Not true. Funny this guy’s an Aussie, that’s where most of the available uranium is. The world could survive on the *currently mined* uranium for 5 years without breaking apart any bombs – and uranium isn’t the only fuel. Exotic metals: this isn’t even funny. He does know it takes material to build anything, doesn’t he? “More information: Derek Abbott. “Is nuclear power globally scalable?” Proceedings of the IEEE. To be published.” Yeah I'll wait for that thanks.
  6. Good, cheers. I honestly can't wait to see the demo released and all the happy monkeys. Currently it's a bit like watching a feeding frenzy. Good news is, I've heard on good authority that it's going to be very soon. Or was it very, very soon, I forget. Either way, I'm sure it'll be quite soon, dependent on your timeframe.
  7. ~600Mb, but I've no idea how long that will take you on your setup.
  8. 7,571 view of this thread in a few hours. If you take off para's 5000 that's still pretty impressive.
  9. Dude, they're developers, not accountants. {edit} To expand, they've probably been working ~18 hours a day for at least a month now. 5:30 closing time - no. Not even close.
  10. If BFC worked 9 - 5 you wouldn't be getting the game until 2030.
  11. You guys have got ME refreshing and I've already got the game.
  12. I created the "alternative" hotkeys that are shipping with CMBN. I'm just confirming, in answer to a question on the first page, that I didn't map anything to "bail out" in order to avoid involuntary key presses.
  13. I can confirm that in the "alternative hotkeys" file there's no key for bailing out, so it has to be selected from the menu.
  14. Not for CMBN *makes mental note to check when home*
  15. IIRC (I'm in work) the "Bail" command isn't mapped in the alternative hotkeys - you have to select it with the mouse.
