Sadly that's what the human race does. It's nothing unique to nuclear power.

It still baffles me, for example, that with all this technology, we still generate all this rubbish which we then bury in the ground. And we all know it. We all buy things in disposable packaging. We are all complicit.

The care and maintenance stage is part of the Nuclear Decommissioning Authority (NDA) decommissioning strategy and spans an 80+ year period. This waiting period allows for radiation levels within the reactor core to decline and helps to facilitate a smoother demolition process. Dungeness A is due to enter the care and maintenance phase in 2027. Demolition of reactor buildings and final site clearance is planned for 2088 to 2098

It's an amazing place. I visited last month. You can overlook the power station from a nearby lighthouse.

When reading about dungeness reactor i learned that even reactors that haven't melted down also take about a hundred years to decommission safely.

Another interesting stat I heard on a podcast is that the coal industry has proven much more deadly than the nuclear industry in terms of human lives lost.

Can you side load on ios?

Seems like the kind of thing they wouldn't want you to do?

I have an android DAP (music player) that runs Android 7. It's a box with a headphone jack (remember those?) and it's sole purpose is to play offline music from an SD card.

I side-loaded a few music players, because there's no way I'm putting my Google password in android 7 in 2024.

I'd be upset if I couldn't side load. These DAPs never have an up to date android.

Let's hope the music apps I use don't block sideloading.

Poweramp won't. Musicolet?

Anyone remember linuxconf?

What's old is new again.

Or OpenBSD in general. I've used it on my desktop for about 25 years.
