Your one and only fact-related statement was literally

but nuclear energy isn't as dangerous as some make it out to be.

But sure, you weren't talking about dangers lol.

You're right, you shouldn't have stepped in. At least,you shouldn't have stepped in and build a strawman. The discussion you entered is about costs, not dangers.

Nuclear is more expensive than the others only if the others get subsidies but Nuclear doesn’t.

That is straight up wrong, the opposite is true. England's Hinkley Point C for example has a Contract for Difference, the british government pays a guaranteed price per kWh so their citizens pay less.

LCOE of solar is lower than nuclear for eleven years now. Wind has had lower LCOE than nuclear for 14 years now. See figure 52.

Building a new nuclear power plant takes 9-12 years on average. Hinkley Point C in southeast England was announced in 2008 (16 years ago) and is projected to be finished in 2028, with costs now being estimated around $40 billion. These long realisation times are not a european issue alone, as Korea's Shin-Hanul-1-2 faces similar problems.

Safely storing nuclear waste is expensive, too.

Yeah, sometimes the pro nuclear bubble feels a bit like crypto bros lol

Nuclear power is still the most expensive way to produce electricity by a large margin.

Racist AND misogynistic at the same time, that's a bingo.

Ever heard about CLOUD act?

I don't discriminate. I say the data protection of all of these services is terrible and you shouldn't use them.

No, step dad, pls help!

I originally wanted to argue that you lack knowledge about Linux because educating yourself about debloating tools is actually more effort than I ever needed to put into a basic Linux installation with a regular distro, but then I recognized it's actually you who's lacking knowledge about Windows.

Occasional issues with hardware drivers is something that happens with Windows, too. Just last week I set up a server for a client and it took me two days to get all the NICs ready due to driver issues. That shit happens. Occasionally. With both Windows and Linux.

I have never had any issues getting WLAN, sound, USB or anything to work if i didn't build on minimal Arch or something super nerdy.

Ubuntu, Debian, Pop!, Mint, all work perfectly well in these regards. Only thing you usually have to do something is for gaming. But even that has become very easy by installing wine and proton. Steam even lets you set force compatibility modes for every game.

Debloating or preparing a clean Windows installation is more of a hassle and requires far more skill and research than setting up a working Linux system. Let alone the growing effort Microsoft puts into forcing users into Microsoft Accounts.

If Linux works for you, Good for you. If Windows works for you, Good for you.

I agree to that, but man, "Linux is too hard to set up" is straight up BS nowadays. And Microsoft and Windows do have many issues that need to be pointed out and criticized.
