If AV suddenly stops working, it could mean the AV is compromised. A BSOD is a desirable outcome in that case. Booting a compromised system anyway is bad code.

Windows assumes that you installed that AV for a reason. If it suddenly faults, who's to say it's a bug and not some virus going ham on the AV? A BSOD is the most graceful exit you could do, ignoring and booting a potentially compromised system is a fairly big no-no (especially in systems that feel the need to install AV like this in the first place).

In the Netherlands 112 is fine, most critical systems are. It's mostly airports that are getting fucked by this it seems.

Banks and PSPs are fine here too.

Or take the ad-supported option, where it prints out ads on your documents!

I'd say bombing children's hospitals says a lot about someone's personality.

What happens if a mistake was made and an NFT is erroneously issued (for example to the wrong person)?

What happens if the owner dies? How is the NFT transferred then?

Who checks that the original NFT was issued correctly?

What about properties that are split? What happens if the split isn't represented in the NFT correctly (e.g. due to an error)?

The whole non-fungible part can be a problem, not a solution. It very, very rarely happens that ownership of a property is contested. It happens quite often that a mistake is made during a property transfer/sale that needs to be corrected. How do NFTs deal with this, and are they a solution to a non-issue?

Glad to see things will improve in the US!

Hitler was too big of a pussy unfortunately.

Sure, most countries that already made it use hydro. But Denmark is already up tp 80% without hydro, and the UK and Germany are already nearly halfway there without any meaningful hydro. And there's still so much solar and wind that can still be installed. They're nowhere near their maximum production capacity yet.

100% from renewables is clearly feasible and achievable. Of course it takes time and investments, but nuclear energy will takre more time and investments to get going again.

We're nowhere near the potential capacity for energy production from renewables, and already we're capable of doing 100% renewable power production.

Potential capacity is really not the issue.

We should be able to build them cheaper and faster, not slower and more expensive. And there are countries in the world, that can get it done cheaper, so why can't we?

It's because we stopped building them. We have academic knowledge on how to do it but not the practical/technical know-how. A few countries do it because they're doing a ton of reactors, but those don't come cheap either.

Renewables will not cover your usage.

False. Multiple countries are already able to run on 100% renewables for prolonged periods of time. The bigger issue is what to do with excess power. Battery solutions can cover moments where renewables produce a bit less power.
