Just recalling from memory, Linus Torvalds wasn't making a free and open source kernel at first. He was making a kernel yes, but he attended a Richard Stallman speech where Stallman introduced GNU and expressed that he needed a kernel cause AT&T was cracking down on Unix clones. And Linus was moved by that enough to change gears and renamed the project to Linus Unix aka Linux. Anyone who remembers better or has sources, correct me below, I'm writing from memory. My point is though that Linus wasn't originally intending to make a free and open source kernel.

You should check out the artist "Home Alone." Their stuff has a very neatly crafted vibe. It's lofi esc maybe a bit more jazzy than you'd expect. But their album covers are great and albums are coherent.

Just another example of an artist doing well for themselves still.

It's a reactor design and project that started in 1976 and was delayed for tens of years at a time. It's not exactly the nuclear post child, but that is largely the problem with nuclear in the United States, it, as it currently stands, could not operate at an economy of scale. If the US committed to building say 3,000 of a standardized design across the US, things would likely be very different. (Even if it is not the latest and greatest design, or the most efficient design reactor. Just mass producing parts would drive down the cost.)

Basically, like my ex, it's a commitment issue and I hate this on again off again relationship we have that has me wasting money.

Edit based on the rest of the comments I'm going to stop cap a reddit cascade: No I am not against solar.
