    This is why we don't see new 007 films. We know how the nukes get into the hands of the eccentric billionaires. Spies are obsolete.

    Did you know that the software suite, the client end of the system sold to both police and militaries, to feed them realtime 'battlespace' info...

    You know its literally called GOTHAM, right?

    Like, as in the system that Lucius Fox destroys, after Batman uses it, the single time, to find the Joker, because it is such an enormous moral atrocity?

    ... and I thought my jokes were bad.

    I'm pretty sure it was never named in Nolan's movies other than "sonar device" and a similar device exists in the comics but it's called Echo and that's post Nolan's movie.

    Gotham is also just another name for NYC.

    Is there actually a source for this? It doesn't seem unbelievable in this day and age but there's a wide gap between supplying plutonium for tech startup power (as in electricity) fantasies, which they've openly talked about, and letting Palmer Lucky build nuclear-armed drones.

    I might be mistaken, but I think the intention is to provide fisile material for small form-factor reactors for data centers.

    Even if it was weapons, it wouldn't be anything really new. Private enterprise has always been there, only now the climate is just one that these people are unlikely to see any meaningful oversight.

    But yeah, it's literally so Sam Altman can sell power to himself.

    They are just making sure there are nuclear weapons accessible to them if the people try to vote them out of power.

    So where do I get in on this? I want to be the wacko with a small nuclear reactor powering my house.

    Government isn't free market by definition.
