The other benefit I can think of is keeping the fissile materials always sub critical. You don’t have to worry about a meltdown if the reaction is not self-sustaining. It’s an odd marrying of technologies, but I think people are being too dismissive.
Although, I wonder if the true purpose of such a device would be high output breeding of fuel for weapons use.
Do the terms of their employment change when they get rehired?
Is private security not synonymous with mercenary?
The astronauts in orbit already have their ride home. This is a shift change not a rescue.

Make America Depressed Again
MADA 2: The greatest depression
Honeybees are not the bee population that needs to be saved.
I see it as an extension of the myth of American purity and external corruption. “This person is evil, some outside power must have compromising info on them.” “Immigrants are violent criminals preying on innocent americans.”
These attitudes ignore the reality that bad people can come from anywhere. There are plenty of villians with very mundane origin stories. What matters is if everyone else has the will and ability to keep bad people in check and hold them accountable.
The grifters in charge need no other motivation than a sense of superiority and an opportunity to make a buck.
They’ve been doing this with “natural intelligence” for ages.
The scavenger predator formerly known as Avago Technologies Limited currently wears Broadcom as a skinsuit to disguise hostile takeovers as normal tech mergers.
I make no claims that there isn’t corruption, just clarifying that the video in question does not technically advocate taking bribes.
He’s talking about campaign funds not personal finances. For law abiding candidates, those are entirely separate things.
The United Nations collectively runs a lot of aid programs. The EU and China also independently run aid programs. The US is far from being the sole provider of aid.
Multiple countries provide aid, but all these programs always operate on tighter budgets than they would like. So a big contributor suddenly pulling out is going to leave gaps that are hard for other groups to fill on short notice. Even if the US needs to reduce aid spending to balance the budget, it should be done gradually with coordination of other groups to best preserve coverage. Acting impulsively leads to suffering that could potentially be avoided with a more level-headed change.
From wikipedia
Zelle (/zɛl/) is a United States–based digital payments network run by a private financial services company owned by the banks Bank of America, Truist, Capital One, JPMorgan Chase, PNC Bank, U.S. Bank, and Wells Fargo.
So PayPal does not seem to own an interest in Zelle, but the group of owners isn’t necessarily better than PayPal.
So what you’re saying is the matrix will keep us constantly paranoid and stressed to keep power output high?
We should all be so excited that a new federal sales tax that didn’t go through congress, and hasn’t been challenged by congress, is only at absurd levels instead of straight embargo levels.
