This was a very interesting article, thanks for sharing. Also, interesting visual story telling from Reuters who I feel generally lags in visual storytelling compared to NYT.
I had no idea so many different precursors could make fentanyl, that’s pretty wild.
They do very little visually interesting stuff with their normal news coverage, but their special reports tend to be quite visually interesting.

Oh, also, you're welcome. If I do come across something I find interesting I generally try to remember to post it to lemmy, because I feel that we really can use the content.
Are you mocking my efforts of pasting random links into an app and pressing a button? Appalling.
Haha I could see that now but I was being serious as any effort to get content on here is always greatly appreciated!
Chemistry is fascinating, and if you look at molecular structures of things, you can make SO many things out of other things with the right reactions and filters.
The trick is making the reactions work without binding toxic chemicals to the end product.
So that limits what you can use, but there are still so many options for things.
You'd be surprised what you can use to make aspirin.
Just chew on some willow bark?
I too watch NileRed
