This could be a big deal (in a good way)

Nothing to hate about this if it turns out to be true. It would be very good news.
Is it too late to add this guy to my 2026 moderately famous death pool?
Iowa gonna be rich
1,000 liters of water a day?
From what is essentially an innovative dehumidifier unit?
From low humidity air?
Hmm. Sure.

Oh sure, first you start harvesting water from the air. Soon you have a decent little water farm. Then you take in your orphaned nephew and the next thing you know a couple droids show up, the empire attacks and the whole damn galaxy goes to war.

Relax dude, that was all in the past. And really far away.Oh sure, first you start harvesting water from the air. Soon you have a decent little water farm.

Pfft…talk to me when we get someone producing GALLONS. I know it’s pride month and all but still. I mean, if you’re gonna use the commie metric system at least spell “liter” correctly. Litres? No thanks.

Believe the science
Solar power replaces gas and nuclear generation
This is so fake
Can the elite become more rich from making water more available or making it more scarce?

I mean, I'm perfectly happy to accept the idea that someone could make a more efficient dehumidifier. But it's a dehumidifier. And then the next thing you know, somebody wants to make a dehumidifier farm, but that of course requires power, so you have to put it next to a solar farm. And then the solar farm has to get permits, and to do so, it tries to humanize itself by saying how they are supporting local agriculture by 'letting' the local shepherds have their sheep graze under the panels. But the solar farm is next to a cattle farm, and the next thing you know the sheep transmit fatal diseases to the cattle herd.
And then where are you? Water to drink, but no burgers.
(FTR- the grazing solar sheep killing adjacent cattle herds has actually happened recently in my neck of the woods.)
Exactly. In the immortal words of Don Cherry, "don't give me any of that commie stuff."

and years later you're still waiting for permit approval
on the face of it a incredible invention but if everybody starts using them isn't it possible that all moisture from air disappears and a new climate change cataclysmic variant manifests leading to permanent drought or something liket that?
also what's the smart play here? buy massive amounts of desert land while it's still cheap?

Yes, but honestly, I think the nuke-causing-an-earthquake-on-the-San-Andreas-fault play has a better investment return horizon for the comparable asset. Casa del Lex, Marina del Lex, Luthorville, Otisberg...

Only had one cup of coffee this morning, so it took me a minute. Initial thought was WTF? He knows that we have Nukes built on the San Andreas system out here…
. Oh, and canisters of spent fuel…LOTS of them.
It really was a very cromulent thread.
Well, this thread took a turn for the BETTER
Seriously though, this is the way that improv is actually supposed to work. You take a ridiculous proposition, accept it, and build on it.
