A strange game. The only winning move is not to play. How about a nice game of chess?

Even with fission, nuclear is a panacea of energy with almost no waste for modern reactors. I can see there being an initial rise in energy costs to get those projects built out though. If they are phasing out nuclear, that would be dumb.

Additionally, researchers at MIT recently found that you can evaporate water without heat, so that should hopefully be a thing in the near future.

I was about to write back that we are not far off the advances to make these affordable and then did a google search and found that you can get a distilled unit on Amazon for $180 that is capable of making a gallon in 5 hours for about $.45 worth of electricity. That is far less than what it costs to buy distilled water at the store, which is around $1 a gallon. If you look at this from a break-even analysis, you technically start to reap the rewards of ownership after about 800 uses since the first 400 uses basically cost you $1.45 per gallon, then the next 400 costs you $.45 per gallon, but you are recouping that extra cost over the $1 retail price, so by the 800th use, you are getting water at less than half the price of the store.

Not necessarily. It just requires excitation at a molecular level. You can get creative with your source. They have been playing around with low energy methods like LED or even just using the sun, geothermal, etc.

Distill water, then add minerals back into it, and bottle in glass, profit.

Shouldn’t we get their side of the story?

Seems like Darwinism to me.

People who have a lifelong illness that can infect their child, having more kids that they can’t afford, and are surprised picachu when their free socialized system won’t give them free care if they don’t get their tubes tied. Ridiculous. They can’t even read, but are having offspring.

This is Turkey’s propaganda arm. Not a great source for unbiased factual information.

It will be good for things like medications, small electronics, and basic kitchen supplies.

Interesting. Just not sure then why they need the extra polymers added. They should have at least done some rounds with just water.

I find it super fascinating that the most effective color happens to be that of chlorophyll.

Yeah. It is odd that they did the experiment with hydrogel when the subject of focus is water itself. Then again, the water container could potentially absorb light and emit heat, which would also confound the result.

Sweeping generalizations have no place in good journalism. They are a tool of propagandists.

You didn’t read the article. It makes broad assertions about the US’s dealing in Iraq, calling it all atrocities. This is not good journalism.

This reads like Chinese propaganda. It is not unbiased.

I only use Reddit for porn now since they can’t monetize it.

No shit.

They are a public company that was $4B negative free cash flow last year. The employees get paid, but I’d love for you to describe the mechanism where a board member derives value when the stock has tanked over the past two years unless you are saying that they are shorting it, which would be public information and get them kicked off the board typically.

Not sure why my comment was deleted, but no. I work for a corporate competitor or them. Spotify is a public company, so it is plain to see that they are not profitable and have never been.

Spotify is not profitable nor ever has been. It accrued $4B in additional debt last year. The business is subject to high royalty fees. As a competitor, I just leave free Spotify running all day on mute since they lose money from every subscriber. The royalties are the same whether they make money or not on the customer. It is wise of them to more aggressively convert people to paid plans, but I’m sure that their margins are razor thin.
