So far, this i not happening with hydrogen generation, not even in Germany, where energy prices are fluctuating even more.
For electrolysis, construction costs of the plants are too high. It is not economical to build a plant that will not be running most of the time, even if it runs on very cheap or even free electricity when it is running.

There is some ambiguity about the term "Samson Option". Some use it to refer to any Israeli nuclear strike against its enemies. Some for the plan as described in this thread above. Some even include the possibility of a nuclear strike against Israeli allies (with the justification that those allies did not do enough to protect Israel). In all cases the term refers to a plan of a large-scale use of nuclear weapons in case Israel feels existentially threatened.
Unless you are talking about cache, which virtually any PC processor has had for many decades, there is no "on-die memory" in Apple CPUs.
Apple uses LPDDR5 memory soldered onto the mainboard. Faster than socketed DDR5, but non-upgradeable
This very story is about LPCAMM2, a way to have LPDDR5 on modules, and thus get the benefits of LPDDR5 memory, but still being able to upgrade memory.
But such an event chain - carrington event - famine - toppling of governments - still wouldn't be a big filter. There would be surviors rebuilding civilization.
Barbarian invasion were disruptive for the Roman Empire and ancient China, similar to how such a carrington event would be today, but they clearly weren't the end of humanity, just minor setbacks for civilization.
Depends.
It is reasonable to assume (and the article also talks about this possibility), that there is a stage where AI is already capable of killing of all intelligent biological life on a planet, but not yet able to sustain itself long-term.
Those AI weapon systems that seem inevitable (the FPV drone was and still is an important weapon in Ukraine, but increasing use of jammers, and improvements in jammers are widely believed to make their use infeasible soon, so both sides are working towards drones that autonomously select and attack their targets - some such systems are alreay in use), if deployed by both sides in a conflict, might very well kill of humanity in a last apocylyptic war, but they wouldn't be able to exist long-term without humanity.
I disagree. Fossil energy was convenient, but I don't think it was necessary.
Imagine an Earth without fossil coal and crude oil. This would be a big problem for the steel industry - with just charcoal available, we couldn't make iron on the scale we did during the industrialization. So we get a world where iron is more expensive, and thus not used as much. To some degree, substitutes would have been used - more stone in bridge construction, less steel, more wood in goods and passenger wagon construction, etc. Our means of transport would be somewhat less efficient.
On the other hand, hydropower would still be there. It was one on the important power sources during early industrialization. E.g. in some rural placesm farms had their small-scale hydroelectirc facilities in the early 20th century, when there was no power network, and no diesel generators. With no fossil fuels, those power sources would have been kept in use (better for the climate, worse for river fish). Hydro and wind power were in use since ancient times, so we would have wind power (we possibly would have seen more intermediate stages between windmills and modern wind power). That would have gotten us all the way to solar and nuclear power.
In the end, IMO, we'd have reached today's technology levels. A lack of fossils fuels would have delayed humanity by a few decades to a century, but not stopped it. Depending on how well we can deal with climate change caused by our use of fossil fuel, in the end the difference might be not be that big.

> I'm unaware of a single study to show actual link between microplastics and any harmful effect
Then you are not aware of the studies on plasticosis in seabirds. The mechanism of plasticosis in the digestive tract are very similar to those of asbestosis in the lungs.
It seems, the majority opinion here is to give all footage to the public, or even live-stream it.
I strongly disagree. IMO, releasing footage affects the rights of all individuals involved. Many of those investigated by police will turn out to be innocent in the end, but publishing that they were investigated might have repercussions for them.
IMO, the bodycam footage is only reallyy needed for cases where it is disputed what happened. Those will be looked into by courts, and IMO it is sufficient if these courts have access to the footage.
How much in taxes is "enough"?
The Oxfam report proposes increasing income tax by 60 percentage points, and for the governments to use the money to invest in renewable energy.
Where is your wealth?
Do you own shares of any company, directly or indirectly?
That Oxfam report will assign you a share of that companies emissions.
