Can somebody remind Paris why we gave up Firefox

for this privacy nightmare POS.

Re: What's "site data"?

My understanding is probably wrong, but while that would not trigger the cookie eprivacy banner, you still need to consent to being tracked per GDPR if they are doing anything with that identifier.

Re: £40 too expensive...

I've found Expandrive to be fairly reliable for network file systems. Although I forget which ones it supports.

Fukushima's toxic legacy: Ignorance and fear

Containment

So, the containment has to be strong enough to deal with any natural event (as we've just seen, it basically was in a flawed design from 40 years ago), and it must be able to withstand aircraft strike... like the reactor buildings are, indeed, designed to be.

As for criticality. That's what the automatic SCRAMs at the beginning of this whole debacle were for. The problem was maintaining cooling after power was lost to the cooling pumps - many modern designs utilise convection for cooling, negating this problem.

As for being rated to cater for any possible levels of pressure - perhaps they should be rated for higher levels. It's a cost/benefit analysis, is it not? Like, say, driving - a dangerous activity, if ever I saw one.
