This kind of hidden cultural shorthand in movies and TV is one reason I find watching foreign produced entertainment interesting. The set of tropes used in terms of cues and plots etc are different. When you watch it and something feels off

“Purity” is a really overloaded term here. There are vast set of material properties that simply don’t map to a definition “purity” as in some homogeneous concentration of a material. This is so early no one likely knows exactly what config

Other comment chains have explained the storage scale you claim is needed, isn't a great estimate. Energy conservation is probably a better payback than either nuclear or renewables and better resilience for people infrastructure. For

Fossil fuel companies are those mustache-twirling profit optimization villains, and there is demonstrated evidence that they have run a decades long campaign against any form of energy that is not fossil fuel... 10-25% short fall doesn'

Cloud cover doesn't stop all production, it just reduces it. Just build more solar and more storage and it will still be a fraction of the cost of nuclear. I could answer point by point but all of your "failures" are artific

Instead of proposing cross-continent distribution lines, just build more small regional renewable sources... unlike nuclear, their costs keep going down. Smaller renewable solar and wind sources with battery storage are perfectly fine, and

DNS concepts are pretty straightforward, but I agree with the article that there are a lot of little holes to fall into. No mention in any thread on dig vs /etc/hosts. Or of ISPs with bad actor DNS behavior... etc..

This a question with maybe the wrong focus, as Adam Sandler has enough negotiating leverage as an actor and a producer himself to get a deal. In the context of the Actors and Writers strike, it the discussion should be what is the default
