The strain was too much, man.

There are actual sex therapists who specialize in this kind of thing.
You know that nuclear power plant up the road? They just had a big accident, we don’t know exactly what’s going on, and at least one person is already dead from radiation. But it’s fine, and you shouldn’t worry or leave the area.
“No evacuation.” Have you ever actually talked to people?

So we agree, airships and nukes are both outmoded, old tech.

So, essentially, nuclear power is like airships, except with worse disasters?
Probably the crooks just grabbed up everything they could. That means the stuff people have been keeping around that they never had time to repair.
thanks
I’ll add ‘Connections’ an old BBC series covering the history of technology. The creator shows how one change in one place can affect the world. For instance, Napoleon’s armies needed to be fed on the march and eventually we got modern food processing.
I think I made it through one Burroughs book [ a WW2 era Tarzan]
If you want a great heroic fantasy, try Robert Heinlein’s “Glory Road.” He gives you a great adventure, and casually kicks all the tropes in the knee.
“Space opera” has been a term in science fiction since at least the 1940s. Flash Gordon, John Carter, and Buck Rogers all fought Emperors.
private interest.
Yup. No big companies campaigning to get nuclear power. Nope, nary a one.

I don’t see how kicking it down the road is really a problem in this scenario, as that’s pretty much all you can do with nuclear waste, wait until it’s not dangerous.
So, by your own words, there’s no safe way to get rid of nuclear waste besides storing it and hoping things will work out.
Also, nuclear plants would take as long to build as other, safer methods.
imho “deep isolation” isn’t a solution, it’s kicking the can down the road.
Improving the power grid would increase the available supply without causing problems.

Still haven’t found a good way to get rid of nuclear waste, which remains dangerous for a long time.
On one hand, I agree that little boys roughhousing is probably a good thing. On the other, most of the people who admire combat seem to be the ones who are afraid to actually walk the streets after dark.
A while back, someone suggested that only women should be allowed to own handguns, and that the guns should all be painted baby pink.
