1B+ asians eat tofu as a regular ingredient and not as a "meat alternative missing any kind of taste, smell or texture." In fact, not only are there DOZENS of kinds of tofu with wildly different textures and flavors, but even with

Austerity and deprivation inspires nobody. So-called "techno fixes" are what remain, and the sooner we stop listening to the hippies, the sooner we can find real geo-engineering solutions, whether it's crazy stuff like blocki

People have struggled with this for time eternal, and from Google 20% time and other "skunkworks" projects, some of the greatest discoveries and inventions were made off the books. One of my favorite (1993): Wiles, with his from-c
