To be clear the 2 primary companies that design and built nuclear power in China are CGN and CNNC are both State-Owned-Enterprises. Same as in France with EDF and India with NPCIL. Those 3 nations have the bulk of current and future nuclear plants.

The US used to have far more Federal involvement with the Atomic Energy Commission and when that was disbanded we have seen a dropoff in plant construction.

Nuclear power and private investment don't really mix as history and results show. The risk factors and ROI are just not aligned.

If America wants to get serious about nuclear power again it's going to take Federal dollars and directives. Considering we seem antithetic to such a thing we will continue to see little of it.

Do I control your post button? I wasn't aware I carried that type of responsibility.

I mean for sure garlic is top contender but onions are just too versatile.

Fried, caramelized, sautéed, grilled all work great. Mirepoix, soups, pizza, salads could go on and one, there's just so much they can go with.

Now as a seasong or a flavor or such as garlic is usually used, for sure, the greatest. Oh whats that recipe? 2 cloves of garlic? That means mince the entire head and throw it in.

Depends what Unit number we are on and which Angel they used to build it.

I don't care, I live the USA where Stone Mountain is still a place, no nation on Earth has a clean past. Also link me on the half dozen and waffen because you might be a liar.

What's your point, do you think Zelensky is a Nazi? Do you think Ukrainians are Nazis despite being one of the least antisemitic nations in Europe? What is your point?

You are dancing because you don't have other than the talking points you've been fed. Do you also think Russia was justified to invade?

For the first sentence I was about to be serious and make a serious response but thank you for not stopping and continuing the Kremlin talking points, like line for line. Want to talk about Azov too?

The Bandera memes are very 2022, nobody gives a shit now. That's seriously what we are still doing here? You guys really don't have anything worthwhile to say.

This UV blocking ability is yet another notch for onions being the GOAT of vegetables.

According to the paper the hours measured was for an accelerated light soaking stress test. Still not 100% on the timeframes here, still seems a little short...

DSSCs along with UV filter films were subjected to an intensive light soaking protocol using an Atlas XLS+ solar simulation system. The xenon lamp of the system (model NXE 1700), which simulates the AM1.5G solar spectrum, (34) facilitated a 1000-h exposure to artificial sunlight. The spectral irradiance within the UV 300–400 nm range was quantified at approximately 240 MJ/m2. The simulator maintained internal conditions of approximately 35 C, a black standard temperature (BST) of 60 C, and a relative humidity level of 20%. Thermal imaging, conducted with a Fluke TiS75 camera, indicated the average temperature of the filters and DSSC to be 45 C. This 1000-h duration was chosen since it aligns with standard light soaking protocols in photovoltaic research, corresponding to roughly one year of outdoor exposure in a central European climate under the AM 1.5G solar spectrum. (54)

The 1000-h light soaking test demonstrated that the CNF-ROE filter film effectively minimized electrolyte color bleaching and preserved JSC of the DSSC, outperforming other films, including the commercial SFC-10l filter. Predictive modeling based on the accelerated aging test projected that CNF-ROE could retain the lifetime of DSSCs for approximately 8500 h, significantly longer than the 1500 h for typical, commercially available, conventional, fossil-fuel-based UV filter.

Yup, I saw Ukraine's booth at CES where they showing off even their social drones and it was impressive.

Too bad voted to feed them to the woodchipper instead of you know helping them and making a valuable future ally.

Who cares that someone could could communicate directly with the worlds 2nd largest economy? Maybe your job doesn't but we can go anecdote to anecdote, in my industry we interface with China all the time, sometimes even having to visit factories where having an American translator yourself is quite valuable.

Again, I have already said Spanish is #1 for USA obviously but seriously, what besides Mandarin would be #2? Japanese maybe? French? German? Portuguese? Maybe but it's hardly clearcut.

Could that guy actually prove that he knew it and fluently? Even if I didn't have a use for it I would count it as a plus that someone could apply themselves to that but he sounded like a real bullshitter besides that.

Also let's put a pin in this and see if troops are headed back to Afghanistan lol

I'm sorry which political party is cheering for this right now? I have a pretty low conception of Republicans currently but are they really pro "get rid of Win10"?

Oh I understand what taxes are.

On here? All the time, you're doing it right now!

It's less of an issue about that from Apple because they have never had that expectation on their hardware, have far less enterprise use cases and they've always been a minority market-share for desktops. There is nothing illegal about locking down hardware (even if I think it should be).

Scale matters though, if it was 4 million devices versus 400 million (if we even believe that) you think it's be as big a concern?

For most any major company I imagine while legally protected they are reticent of getting on The Mouse's bad side. No law prevents them from being petty jerks.

Rich guy privledge. John Morgan isnt just anyone, he's got a lot of money obviously, an army of lawyers and is a bigwig right in Disneys backyard of Orlando. He's toyed around with running for FL governor.

Jobs had a charisma and our collective impression of him as an innovator even if we knew he was a bit of an ass, deserved or not.

Zuck's time in the public consciousness has been one of a real goober. Didn't help that he was real young when that happened compared to Jobs but his own statements and public presence has not helped either.

Jobs vs Zuckerberg is a real study on how to handle public image.
