From the article:

Aida said the new material is as strong as petroleum-based plastics but breaks down into its original components when exposed to salt. Those components can then be further processed by naturally occurring bacteria, thereby avoiding generating microplastics that can harm aquatic life and enter the food chain.

As salt is also present in soil, a piece about five centimetres (two inches) in size disintegrates on land after over 200 hours, he added.

The material can be used like regular plastic when coated, and the team are focusing their current research on the best coating methods, Aida said. The plastic is non-toxic, non-flammable, and does not emit carbon dioxide, he added.

So I think the next thing the goose wants to know is, what’s it being coated with?

And then tow it outside the environment.

TIL the grabby gloves thing I missed due to lack of VR gear wasn’t HL3.

Good day!

I would also sacrifice your first unborn kid for this.

My Ashley O. doll is starting to glitch out a little. Should I be worried?

And they bought Cool Edit and destroyed it.

Corel bought Paint Shop Pro and destroyed it, not Adobe, though it was an Adobe-style move to be sure.

Until you start up a “nice” airline and get the infrastructure going, maybe try to maintain a little of that precious sympathy for those of us with no other fucking choice.

It’s the most popular web browser in the world. Direct access to the browser windows and browsing data of the majority of Internet users would be the point.

And the world supports many free and open source OSes, many of which have no present ties to or support by the people or organizations who started the things they were forked from.

I see no reason why the next big browser thing couldn’t be a Firefox fork.

Firefox started as a fork of the Mozilla browser that was really good in its own right, got rid of bundled stuff people didn’t want from the previous project, gathered user and developer support, and caught on. Why shouldn’t a good fork of Firefox be able to do the same?

The modern Christian Establishment has a great deal in common with the United States itself. There’s tons of writing and chatter about being based on principles of personal freedom and responsibility, taking care of one another, etc. while in real life the ones steering those ships will laugh you out of the room if you suggest they actually try to live and treat folks anything like their texts say they should.

There are, of course, genuinely good Christian and American individuals out there, but they are clearly not the ones in control of their institutions; the collective human organizations which serve to represent them are all about keeping up sparkly appearances and telling nice stories while standing firmly on the necks of anyone they deem too different from themselves.

I mean, the article keeps mentioning “egg producers” which can only mean the chickens themselves. No human can actually produce the kind of eggs you want in your omelettes.

And before you know it, the helpful AI has booked an event where Boris and his new spouse can eat pizza with glue in it and swallow rocks for dessert.

As long as you’re cosplaying indoors or at night. The thing isn’t bright enough for daylight.

Collective viewing is still best on a TV.

If you are alone there may be functionally little difference between sitting on the couch watching TV and lying in bed with a smartphone balanced on your chest, but as soon as you’re sharing the viewing experience at all there’s still value in having a big shared screen.
