Secretary of Energy Jennifer Granholm announces a major scientific breakthrough in fusion research that was made at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in California, during a news conference at the Department of Energy in Washington, Tuesday, Dec. 13, 2022. (AP Photo/J. Scott Applewhite) Cold fusion may sound like a drink you need to brace yourself for, but it’s a great deal more meaningful than that. Rather than splitting atoms to make electricity like fission in nuclear power plants, cold fusion combines atoms to generate more energy than is required to make it. Technically speaking, two light nuclei combine to form a single heavier nucleus and release a large amount of energy. In a breakthrough trumpeted throughout the world, scientists at Lawrence Livermore National… Source link

With the incredible ballooning of the plant-based milk market of the last few years, one could be forgiven for thinking it’s a modern oddity, but soy and almond milk have been made in Asia and the Middle East for centuries. Mexico’s famous cinnamon-spiked rice drink, horchata, has been around for hundreds of years as well. Still, as the incidence of allergies increases and interest in sustainable, vegan and plant-based diets rises, the options have mushroomed — or rather, they’ve hemped, cashewed and legumed. They’ve come a long way from the hauntingly translucent, watery and nutrient-bare rice milk of the ’90s, too. Many of them now on the market are excellent in flavor, texture and nutritional punch. Dairy-free cheese, though, has historically been much harder to nail… Source link

“The Permanent Problem” is an ongoing series of essay about the challenges of capitalist mass affluence as well as the solutions to them. You can access the full collection here, or subscribe to brinklindsey.substack.com to get them straight to your inbox.  We are able to say that communist central planning failed because we can compare its results with those of capitalism. We can look at nighttime photos of the Korean peninsula; we can contrast Soviet bread lines with the groaning shelves of an American supermarket.  Imagine a nearby Universe, though, where on Earth Prime, Marxist-Leninist revolution had somehow triumphed globally while reducing the most advanced countries to ruins. Rebuilding from the ashes would have felt like progress, as would the spread of… Source link

Repurposing Is the Road to Free The old saying is “the best things in life are free.” However, the reality is that very few things are free anymore. When it comes to heat, this is especially true this winter season as people cut down thermostats and look to trim expenses. This year heating prices across the world have gone up dramatically, especially in places like Europe. For a lot of reasons, there are compelling reasons for finding alternative ways to heat. Now before you start thinking this is an article about creating “cold fusion” in your backyard, it’s not. Source link
