The New York Times tries to make a radioisotope thermoelectric generator (RTG) into a nuclear weapon.
If, as according to New York Times,…
…a radioisotope thermoelectric generator (RTG) (like what CIA lost trying to monitor Chinese missiles) is a “nuclear device”…
…then so is every clock & instrument dial using radioluminescent (radium, tritium, promethium) paint (use decay energy to do work).

How Did the C.I.A. Lose a Nuclear Device?

A plutonium-packed generator disappeared on one of the world’s highest mountains in a covert mission that the U.S. will not talk about.

Conflating RTG with nuclear weapons; apparently lying to normies in headlines not limited to trans topics now for the NYT
An American nuclear device disappeared on one of the world’s highest mountains during a covert mission. After losing it 60 years ago, the U.S. government still refuses to acknowledge that anything ever happened.

Ok now that I’m deep into it this is incredible reporting.
And this detail is the best so far— the Sherpa’s fought to carry the Pu-238 capsules for the RTG because they were toasty warm!

The GRAF3 is a favorite piece of technology unique to Cyberpunk RED. At RTG we’ve made baby versions, turned it into a pin, and used it as a boss level fight.

I don’t have a subscription, is this like an RTG? That wouldn’t be super surprising, they’re basically radioactive batteries that run for decades, although they really shouldn’t be used for earth-based applications imho.

It was a RTG to power a surveillance post surveilling China and it was a SNAP reactor.

I mean cool story, but they didn't communicate that everything was screwed up. At least not on social media.
Did anyone check to see if they took off the alert from the OC website?
I assume they did, because they had to issue a new one.
And if that's the case. A+ coms skillz OC/RTG

I've read the memo to council. We need to know why the catenary took more than overnight to fix. (Time to fly in parts, lack of staff, weather, complexity, whatever). It took a long time is not an explanation or a plan for next time.
✅RESOLVED, Line 1: Regular train service has resumed. R1 bus service will end shortly. Thank you for your patience.

That makes sense. That feels deliberately misleading by the NYT - an RTG stuck in a deep glacier somewhere in the Himalayas isn't really a threat to anything.

The project agreement also cannot really hold up if its requirements are unachievable. So if the city chained RTG to a low-floor LRT but with light metro operating environment and performance, than how much fault can really be put on RTG versus the city’s disconnect between requirement & solution.

The good thing about running Romancing the Gothic independently of any institution and supported only by people's donations is that I have no pressure to cowardice or capitulation.
Trans people are right there at the heart of RtG and if you don't like it, that's your problem. Not ours.
