  • Your gut is right. After a quick search, it seems that the power consumption of a seawater desalination process is less than three kilowatt hours per meter squared for a large-scale plant.

    However, the downside of desalination plant will be the cost of the infrastructure and the time it might take to have it up and running. With the “water extraction from air” machine, the cost is lower(I assume) and the size is smaller(Height: 259 cm, Width: 610 cm and Length: 224 cm). Seems like it might be quick to have this MoP up and running faster than the desalination plant while costing a ton of energy in the long run.















  • There is no take here. It is basically propaganda trying to associate someone as despicable as Navalny with something that redditors might relate to(watching Rick and Morty). It is the same strategy that Beer companies do with ads with beaches where you associate the brand with a beach and parties. In the case of Navalny, it is a way to make people think that Navalny is a normal human being just like any of us. RedSails have a great article on how ads work https://redsails.org/dont-work-that-way/

    Quote: “The objective [of advertising],” the article continues, “is to seed positive ideas and memories that will attract you to the brand.”
