I live in the other city in America which had a nuclear disaster, but no one talks about it really. It created a cancer cluster in part of my city. People died.

I'd rather have nuclear than data centers. Nuclear of today isn't the nuclear of the 50's / 60's. It's pretty easy to understand why it's safe these days.

Obviously nuclear fission is the real "fuck yeah" choice though
