Engineering teams around the world have been attempting to develop new methods of seawater desalination.

Scientists in China have developed a more efficient form of solar desalination that uses 47.4% less energy than alternatives. After the first year of testing, the scientists believe that at scale it would be able to desalinate water more cheaply than producing bottled water.

The goal is now to scale the technology for use in coastal areas and islands experiencing water insecurity.

as someone who caused the same problem for my mom (constantly wasted soap to an insane degree) it was because I was mixing soaps to make "potions".... crazy to see the same problem in the wild. I literally remember being annoyed that my mom wouldn't let me use like half a bottle of shampoo to make a potion lmao

i purposely refused to read him george’s marvelous medicine because

i too was a potioneer

“i used to live there” is such a sad phrase. seeing places u used to live in is an odd thing. It’s like ‘i know where the best hiding place is in there. my bedroom was the one directly to the left as you walk in. i took my first steps on that flooring. i used to play in that yard with my grandma. she died two years ago. that was the only place i ever knew. those walls contain all of my childhood memories. i can no longer go there, but i know every corner like the back of my hand.’

You know that you can go up to a house and knock on the door and say, "I grew up here. Would you let me come in and look around?" Not everyone will say yes, but a lot of them will.

So when I did this with my childhood home, the main things I realized were that this house was much smaller than I remembered. The rooms which seemed palatial when I was six are actually quite modest. And it's curious -- I didn't move out of that house until I was 16, wouldn't this have updated some of my memories? But apparently it doesn't work that way.

But the best thing was that the front of the house now sports a full-grown elm, a great big tree that defines the view of the house and shades most of the yard.

I planted that tree with my dad.

Ten things that the young folk are doing these days

1. They are staring at their phones, weaving love letters with their eyes, making preparation for the final consummation between this world and the next; since, as it turns out, the next world is the virtual one. When that day comes they will certainly be saved. I am not sure about the others.

2. They are not doing that one weird trick that is so vital to a civilized life. They are not from your area. When they draw forth their skin through the instagram filter, what you see underneath is not what you were expecting to see.

3. They are sleeping in late in a telomere fug. Their alarm clocks are anxiety and the buzz of coffee machines, and the price of coffee has gone up again.

4. They are using abbreviations undreamed-of in earlier ages; by casual condensation of a million letters into one, they have overturned the pale acronyms of the past. The young folk these days can send a full stop whose semiotic blood pressure is so high that tapping it is considered an information hazard. Never message a young person unless you have wide enough ventricles to accomodate what you might get in return.

5. They are arriving early at their fractional metajobs; you never know who will be lucky enough to get the hotdesk or what might transpire once they have it.

6. They are lurking in shadowy doorways, turning down offers of terrifying fake drugs in little paper packets. It seems that they may put the terrifying fake drug business out of business. Nobody has considered what fevered imaginations will be made jobless by this shift.

7. They have tin-openered out of their little homes and are living en masse in an avocado. They take turns being the one who has to sleep up against the stone. It builds character. The next generation of young people will never understand.

8. They have been experiencing time as a fourth dimension, distinct from the others only in the manner that it is experienced. They think they might like to try out further dimensions at some point.

9. They persist in inexplicably knowing who they are.

10. And after all this they are still fizzing, like carbonated water, under the confused engines of the state.

proud driver of a car that does not require gasoline. yes the guy running the car company is an insane prick but i'm not going to take criticism from anyone running a gas car. the oil lobby here is insane and has done far more damage over a much longer period of time. for anyone running a non-tesla ev: enjoy your moral superiority over me, i do not care. for anyone not driving a car at all: i respect and fear you, especially if that's by conscious choice, because i've tried and failed to live that way.
