@jensorensen @RealGene These fkrs wanna patent the sun.

Most of the processed rare earths for solar come from China, sure. But the ore they use is usually Australian. You're right - inaction, created a solvable problem.

Mike Peters should be the one who is pissed by this remake of his 1978 cartoon.

Reminds me of a sign I saw in a medical physics lab: " CAUTION! Do not look into laser with remaining eye!"

@jensorensen : the last one also makes me think that if they can actually cut people off from the sun, it's a great way to render solar panels ineffective.

[pvtejas@mstdn.social]

@jensorensen they've done it. They've privatised the sun

[chavestoteles@mastodon.social]

@Quasit @jensorensen that happened in some wildfires.

@wyatt_h_knott @tbehrens @jensorensen maybe. At least they have multiple approaches running on Kessler Syndrome implementation.

@mardor @hyc @jensorensen

Half a century on.

And those "clever people" with the coal, the oil, the gas and the nuclear failed for five decades to invest in lithium, cobalt, semiconductor wafer technologies, solar panel manufacturing or any other opportunity.
