We are mostly still talking utility scale, but distributed in the geographical sense rather than grid sense, yes.

Like a flexible thin film?

Speaking of geothermal (though this is a geo network and not direct deep geothermal heat).

I think MAHA is unscientific, misguided, largely wrong, and will get many children killed

I also think that Zeldin at the EPA is a disaster (e.g. loosening soot regulations that will also get people killes).

I have heard about this, and I share the same reservations! I would think nuclear heat would only pencil as a byproduct of electricity production, unless they figured out something as simple as "we can get usable low temp heat from natural uranium in a mildly fancy box"

I have wondered about sewage, and, uh, why is it warm? Is it the industrial wastewater? Biological activity? Or is it not really that warm, just warmer than the ambient air?

The cheat code for this is audiobooks, and is frankly the only way I've gotten much reading done since having a kid.

Yep, I remember reading about that a while back.

We introduced peanut powder and the other major allergens early.

And I think concentrating solar has pretty definitively lost to PV unless you count very simple things like south-facing windows.

Heat needs could also conceivably be served by nuclear, but I think this is much less likely to pan out, especially at lower temps.

That's a new one. Though it is true that medical advice to avoid peanuts made the problem a lot worse for a while and it is now improving.

Sam "No Kings" Vimes is a dedicated father, firm believer in the rule of law, anti-imperialist and anti-war, and a respecter of the rights and dignity of all sapient creatures.

Would that we had a million more Vimeses.

Sure, Mario is one good man. But what if I raised you 999,999 mans?

The history of all hitherto existing society is the history of CRass struggles

I found both extremely compelling, despite the deep problems with both protagonists

I believe that's an externality
