There are several factors to consider when choosing materials in a nuclear plant. For things that aren’t in direct proximity to the reactor core, neutron activation (becoming radioactive) is less of a concern. Aluminum produces hydrogen gas when exposed to boric acid, which presents an explosion risk. Certain chemical compounds can cause corrosion to plant equipment, even a Sharpie marker could corrode a valve or pipe and cause issues over the 50 year life span of a plant.

I’m too young to have played the original as a kid, but I have fond memories of coming home from school to play HL2 on my shitty laptop.
I look forward to seeing you one-up them on your own spacewalk
Cannot dismiss cookie popup and reader view isn’t working for me. I’m sure it’s a fine article, but it’s on a shitty website so I can’t read it.
We’ve had them here in Phoenix since before the pandemic. They operate just like Uber, except they’re cheaper and there’s no driver. You can sit in any seat besides the driver seat, and store items in the trunk of the vehicle. You can pair your phone with the car and play your own music on the speakers. Pretty good experience all things considered. The cars are pretty good at finding a place to stop and load/unload passengers, but sometimes they will drive right past you when finding a place to park and you have to walk 10-15 feet to the car.
You could, but if this is taken from another window in the same building you’ll likely only get ~10 seconds of warning.
If you could put a couple cameras a mile or so down each direction on the track you could get an earlier warning system
Join a Discord server for your city if it has one. Make casual conversation with the people there, attend/plan meetups, and suddenly you have real-life friends.
I met most of my closest friends through my school’s Discord server while I was in college.
(It doesn’t have to be Discord, it can be a Facebook/Reddit/etc. community too. Discord is just the most common option for younger people.)
ED25519 keys are what I use. Some people are wary of them because the NSA made some contributions to the algorithm’s development, but I don’t personally see it as an issue. If it bothers you, there are other popular ciphers that are still more secure than RSA.
something something RSA keys aren’t as secure as the more modern cyphers
This is going to be very unhelpful in your circumstance, but a filesystem like ZFS can scrub the entire pool and find/repair any corrupted blocks. It will report how many bad blocks it found during the scan.
You are expected to defend yourselves for 20 minutes. I’m genuinely curious - what are you defending yourself from? How often is this defense required?
Home invasions, muggings, etc. still happen in rural areas. Saying “just call the police” is the self-defense equivalent of “just have the butler do it”. It’s a very privileged take on the issue.
You don’t need a contract. In the United States, anyone can sue anyone for anything. No laws need to have been broken nor contracts breached.
It’s not illegal in the US either, but you can still be sued by employers for doing it.
What?
My great grandfather’s grave is still around and he died in the ‘80s, in a cemetery in a highly populated part of my city. Right next to him is his son that was killed in Vietnam in the ‘60s.
Depends on region of course, but I think most graves are around for much longer than 6 years.
This is such a poor attempt at trolling. Don’t you have better things to do?
It is simpler when you’re doing stuff on the web and/or need to scale.
Glocks have three separate safety devices, but they do not have a toggleable safety switch on the outside of the gun, commonly referred to as a “thumb safety”.
You will not be able to make a Glock fire unless you put your finger in the trigger and pull it. They are 100% drop-safe, meaning even if you have the gun loaded and it falls off a table, etc., it will not fire a round (unlike guns in the movies).
This makes Glocks a very appealing self-defense handgun. In a real self-defense shooting scenario, it is unlikely that you will have the time or dexterity to disengage the thumb safety before firing. Assuming you remember to do it at all.
There’s something called the rule of threes in self defense shootings: most encounters happen at 3 yards, last 3 seconds, and 3 rounds are fired. If someone is sprinting at you from 9 feet away, the extra split second of fumbling around with the gun to turn the safety off could make a big difference. Concealed carry instructors will commonly tell students to submerge their hands in a bowl of ice water for a full minute, then attempt to handle their (unloaded) gun and operate the action and thumb safety. It’s nearly impossible. That’s the amount of dexterity you will have in an actual life threatening situation due to the sudden rush of adrenaline.
When carrying a handgun for self defense, we use other factors to mitigate a negligent discharge. For example, your holster must completely cover the trigger when the gun is seated so it cannot be fired when holstered.
I carry a Glock daily for self defense and have never had an issue with the lack of a thumb safety, because I follow the rules of gun safety very strictly.
