Here's the full set of measures recommended:

Workplace safety regulators have recommended a suite of measures including water spraying systems, ventilation and vacuum systems to clear dust, in addition to protective respirators for workers — ones covering the entire face if silica levels in the air are high.

The US is also a prime example why simply getting rid of an ID does not actually solve any of these issues for the mentioned groups. If anything you can see more problems with voter registration and information that partially would be solved by a unified ID issued to each legal citizen.
Or in other words: People will always find a way to exclude groups on purpose and they will always be lazy to implement new measures to include a smaller pool of people, especially if they feel including those people might not even benefit them.

And ID is a good first step but it's of course also not enough to reach everyone who legally can vote.

Neither do they have copyright of the stock art they used to purchase. The complete piece, however, including pip boy, is not AI generated. Someone put this together, put effort into it, which easily qualifies it for copyright protection, even if the background is AI generated instead of bought stock art.

Wind, solar and other renewable sources need to be the long term future. Nuclear can only serve as a in-between, as they are not absolutely safe as history has proven and from a cost perspective it makes zero sense to build new ones today. Even for the running plants I don't think a single country actually did successfully establish a safe final disposal side, so as of now, it's still theoretical that we can create and maintain them. And one we can, I am not sure why people are hyped to have nuclear waste below their feet, especially when there are already a lot of concerning cases where leaks in temporary storage was actually not disclosed by governments and shrugged away as "probably still safe". Sure, the idea is thatbfinal storage sites can't leak but... temporary ones also were not supposed to simply leak.
Why would we risk another Chernobyl or Fukushima when wind and solar is safe?

I really don't get why people are suddenly so hyped about nuclear power when we have alternatives, especially since a lot of them you can install on your own property to safe money and be a bit more independent.

In my area those who decide on new building projects own a lot of property, so they of course keep additional homes being build to a minimum to further increase prices of their property... it's a rigged system, by design.

The problem is simple: in a perfect society we wouldn't increase flat prices simply so a landlord can make even more profit. There is no actual, logical reason why the flat should cost 5x as much, only made up ones that basically say "but I wanna!". There's no actual 5x increase in costs for the landlord, they pocket most of that additional rent.
Living space isn't something you should be able to profit this heavily from in a functioning society, as it's a basic necessity to life. It's alright that nicer flats cost more but nowadays we value huge additional profits to landlords higher than basic human rights, provocatively spoken.

Fuck off. A lot of people got sick because others were idiots, not because they behaved wrong. Masks are most effective when the sick person wears them, which you can't influence, way too many idiots got out even thought they felt sick and not every place in the world encouraged the use of the really effective FFP2/KN95 Masks. A lot of long-covid sufferers also got sick early on, before we even learned what they best measures would be to protect ourselves and others and before we had the vaccines that reduce the risk of suffering from it.
