We talked about Transformers. [...] I never talked about "Super Girl" in this article.

"We"? fafalone discussed Supergirl (in which Milly Alcock is the lead actress) because you were first talking about Supergirl.

TFS: "... Supergirl ... Supergirl ... Supergirl ... Supergirl ..."
angel'o'sphere: "Is the main actress 'barely legal' As in Sexy, young like 16 or so? [shift to summer blockbusters like Transformers to make a point]"
fafalone: "The lead actress is Milly Alcock who's 26. You ok there?"
angel'o'sphere: "[I only remember Transformers, so I don't understand the flow of the discussion]"
Milly Alcock is not in any Transformers movies or television shows as actress or voice. That should have been clue #1 that fafalone was talking about the first thing you mentioned: the Supergirl movie which is the primary subject of TFA and mentioned multiple times in TFS.

The lead actress is Milly Alcock who's 26. You ok there?

She was not 26 when the first movie was made ...

Do you have reading comprehension problems?

And looking at her pictures, she did not play in the first Transformer movie, she would have been 7 at that time. (And she is blond, but brown haired)

The lead actress of Supergirl is Milly Alcock who's 26. She was either 25 or 24 when the first movie was made. She's 26 now in Supergirl. What the hell does Transformers have to do with anything involving this Supergirl movie?

The transistors aren't actually smaller. It's standard in the field to market the next chip generation as a smaller size when they mean equivalent to the new size. In this case the transistors are stacked vertically so looking down you get layers X areal density of the 2 dimensional surface. We don't do this with flash stacks, which now have up to 321 layers and are mapped to 1000+.

The angstrom scale business is marketing fluff to make the density increase understandable to consumers. But this is one of the developments leveraging the Z dimension that are legitimate progress. The Z dimension gives more than just the same chip folded like origami. The net distance traveled by a signal in a cycle can be reduced, which yields massive improvement in performance without additional cost of power/heat.

One downside of a laterally centered driving position is much worse visibility when overtaking. A centered driving position is good for a track car where the chances of overtaking on the left or right are roughly 50/50, but on the street where the odds are heavily biased one way or the other depending on whether it's a LHD/RHD country, having your driver's seat on the correct side makes it much easier.

Also I would point out that there's nothing socialist about modern American fascism, considering that there's very little flirtation with collective ownership of the means of production going on (other than Sam Altman getting Trump to consider having the US government buy the gigantic economic black-hole-bomb he's built), but they do enact deals that look a good bit like socialism for corporations the regime favors...

The vast majority of voters in any party want the opposite of that but are told to vote for "the lesser of two evils" which admits to an inherently evil system.

This is only possible because the US has first-past-the-post elections, a clunky and primitive voting method that can enable this situation. Moving to more advanced voting methods like ranked choice or STAR voting prevents a two-party stranglehold from forming.
