We have the same issue.

That’s why I use a B&W Lazer printer, and have dedicated prosumer Canon photo printer for the few times I need color prints.

They are also exposed to alternative viewpoints, different cultures and concepts,.

How some of these parents with just high school diplomas do it is beyond me. They don’t. I’m in the same boat. Technical Bachelors, MBA. We home schooled my son with a learning disorder for a year, primarily as a response to the school districts failure to do their job. It was not a success. While I still think it was the right decision, it was incredibly hard. Which is why it only lasted one year.

In the words of Stringer Bell “Your not taking notes on a motherfucking conspiracy are you?”

I think you misunderstand Isreals role in the region, as far as US politics is concerned. As long as Isreal is a viable force in the region, They are seen as a knife at the collective Arab/Iranian/Egyptian throat. They act as a US proxy providing a counter weight to other regional powers.

Even though I’m losing mine, I still love the song Hair, in all its glory.

1. No, not breeders, but reprocessing. There is still a lot of usable fuel left in an “expended” fuel cell, just not in enough concentration.

They take the waste heat from nuclear decay and convert it to electricity through the use of a peltier device. Those work off of differential temperature and are pretty inefficient to begin with. Unmderated Nuclear decay doesn’t produce a lot of heat at one time, which is why reactors use a moderator to increase the power output.

Well, I work in commercial nuclear power, and I have since 2010, so…yeah, I’m super creative.

This article has a good breakdown. The biggest issue is efficiency. RTGs are around 5-9% efficient. Standard steam cycle generators are around 30% (see this article ) . You get much more usable energy from fuel used in a commercial reactor vice a RTG.
