Went back and checked: Walter was 50 at the start of the series. The series spanned two years of in-universe time, and he died at 52.
Anyway, the point stands. Cooking meth is a valid shared interest for an older man and a younger man to bond over.
I'd been on Reddit for 15 years, predating the Digg exodus. Actually, I find that my memories of the early days makes moving to Lemmy easier. Present-day Lemmy is already ahead of Reddit back when I started, both in terms of content and features/availability.
I think that's just how the US signs off on every meeting with world leaders.
Russia was always Turkey's number one geopolitical antagonist; even in the best of times, a dangerous frenemy. Now, Turkey is probably the number one beneficiary of Putin's botched war. Its main antagonist is defanged, maybe permanently, and it's become a geopolitically indispensible regional power that the US and Europe desperately need to keep onside. It can dick around with stuff like hosting Putin visits, just to flaunt its own importance. Everything is coming up Erdogan.
Material degradation is a very serious issue for these perovskite cells, so it's a bit concerning to see it brushed off with a "lol we'll just have to see" comment. Also, these materials contain lead, so disposal/recycling becomes a significant concern.
The grim reaper is coming for old.reddit.com any day now.
Shutting down polluting businesses, relocating others away from where people live, and traffic congestion control are all valid approaches to air pollution control, used not only in China but around the world. Not sure why you need to put scare quotes around the word "solved".
That's not at all how the GPL works....
After seeing this, I thought I'd go over to the Play Store to leave a 1 star review. Then discovered I had already left a 1 star review (complaining about their shitty interface) a few months ago, which I'd totally forgotten about ;-)
Optical components are already used in some parts of servers, in interconnects. But I don't expect them to replace silicon for general purpose processing ever. One thing that's never noted in these scientific press releases is that optical components are huge. The wavelength of light is about a micron, i.e. a thousand times larger than the feature sizes of silicon electronics. This limitation can't be easily overcome.
