The tax breaks in the Inflation Recovery Act are crucial to making the deal economically feasible, according to Constellation. They provide a credit for every megawatt hour of nuclear energy produced.

lmao so instead of this funding the energy transition it’s just subsidizing the AI grift

      Leftism is obsessively AI and musk posting as if it were a full time job, and the more you do that the more leftist you are.

      Remind the people why you had to take like a year off from posting (during which time the site was noticeably less annoying). Was it because you’re too confrontational and were getting into to many heated arguments with people about stupid shit?

          Honestly, it’s fascinating how committed you are to misinterpreting my intentions. I criticize obsessive AI griping not because I’m enchanted by techbro promises or “stanning for billionaires,” as you so colorfully put it. Rather, I’m urging a balanced perspective; it’s entirely possible to scrutinize the energy usage of various technologies—including gaming—without resorting to hyperbolic doomsaying or personal attacks.

          You ask if I’m a leftist, as if one’s entire political alignment could be judged by their stance on a specific facet of technology. Engaging critically with technology doesn’t equate to blind support of its most excessive implementations.

          Let’s use this platform to foster constructive debate, not sanctimonious sniping. We’re all here because we give a damn about the world and its future, right? Let’s not lose sight of that common ground.
