Weird, and yet they managed to notify the public the second time around.

Transparency goes a long way, but the point is the person was responding to a comment about lack of public notification. They were wrong.

I've said nothing about health hazard, I know what tritium is and what acceptable levels are. Stop strawmanning the argument here.

The issue here is more so that this leak happened more than once, and they themselves said it wasn't worth notification of the public.

An individual leak is not life ending, but as was shown by Indian point, these companies cannot be trusted to fucking do the right thing, and that is scary in the event a larger incident occurs.

Nuclear energy has a bad rap, and requires public trust. Fucking hiding your incidents isn't going to help that, nor is being a condescending twat about it.

Significantly more expensive? Over what timeframe?Cheaper than the constellation with a 5 year shelf life that has to be constantly relaunched?

The constellation that cannot possibly handle the bandwidth of tens of millions or more?

The AUS population alone is 25 million.
Starlink speeds are already slowing with the subs they have, in what world do you expect this to be feasible on a global scale? Also Musk himself has said it won't be functional in cities
