I've heard of hydrogen infused water, and I've heard of oxygen infused water. So I'm waiting for hydrogen+oxygen infused water, which is just more water, and we all could do with drinking more water.

What exactly is it, is it toxic, and can you use it for anything?"
#Jellyfish attack #NuclearPowerPlant. Again.
By Susan D’Agostino | October 28, 2021
"#Scotland’s only working nuclear power plant at #Torness shut down in an emergency procedure when jellyfish clogged the sea water-cooling intake pipes at the plant, according to the Scotland Herald this week. Without access to cool water, a nuclear power plant risks overheating. The intake pipes can also be damaged, which disrupts power generation. And ocean life that gets sucked into a power plant’s intake pipes risks death.
[...]
"The clash between gelatinous jellyfish and hulking nuclear power plants has a long history. These spineless, brainless, bloodless creatures shut down the Torness nuclear power plant in 2011 at a cost of approximately $1.5 million per day, according to one estimate. Swarms of these invertebrates have also been responsible for nuclear power plant shutdowns in Israel, Japan, the United States, the #Philippines, #SouthKorea, and Sweden.
"Humans have unwittingly nurtured the adversarial relationship between jellyfish and nuclear power plants. That is, human-induced #ClimateChange has raised ocean water temperatures, setting conditions for larger-than-usual jellyfish populations. Further, the relatively warm water near nuclear power plant discharge outlets may attract jellyfish swarms, according to one study. Also, #pollution has lowered #oxygen levels in sea water, which jellyfish tolerate more than other marine animals, leading to their proliferation.
"Some look at jellyfish and see elegant ballerinas of the sea, while others view them as pests. Either way, they are nothing if not resilient. Jellyfish are 95 percent water, drift in topical waters and the Arctic Ocean, and thrive in the ocean’s bottom as well as on its surface. Nuclear power plant operators might take note: Older-than-dinosaur jellyfish are likely here to stay."

#LongCovid therapies
Someone suggested trying hydrogen - oxygen therapy for LongCovid. That is, breathing a mixture of 1 part #oxygen and 2 (or 3) parts #hydrogen, from a bottle. Apparently you do that for a few hours per day, for a month or two.
Does anyone have experience with that? I’ve never heard of it before.
(I did try the hyperbaric oxygen therapy. After 6 sessions in the high-pressure pod: mixed results. I don’t know whether continuing that is worth it.)
Its high time
Both #water and #oxygen for critical patients need be rationed
This has nothing to do with #poverty
But lack of civic sense and awareness
This is the mess called Indian politics
Sitting on the graveyard it builds
Any self respecting #democracy would ve snatched the 100 acres of #golf course in lutiyans
These vultures, blood feeding vultures
In drought-hit Delhi, the haves get limitless water, the poor fight for every drop | Reuters
"politicians, civil servants and corporate lobbyists who live in substantial houses and apartments in central Delhi pay very little to get limitless supplies of piped water – whether for their bathrooms, kitchens or to wash the car, dog, or spray a manicured lawn. They can do all that for as little as $10-$15 a month.
But step into one of the slum areas in the inner city, or a giant disorganized housing estate on the outskirts and there is a daily struggle to get and pay for very limited supplies of water, which is delivered by tanker rather than pipe. And the price is soaring as supplies are fast depleting."

Oh my goodness! You can enable login and logout sounds in KDE Plasma!
The Oxygen sound theme has such a nice jingle, too. It reminds me of the good old days. I'm keeping that.
You can enable it in Settings → Apps & Windows → Notifications → Login → Play a sound (See screenshot)
You can set a custom sound file, but a file from your current sound theme should already be default if there is one.

Why a new #zero-carbon #UK #steel plant offers hope and a headache | Steel industry | The Guardian
The problem with making steel using a #BlastFurnace is that it requires very high temperatures and #CokingCoal to #reduce the #Oxygen content as it is made to bond to #Carbon instead. This produces #CarbonMonoxide and then #CarbonDioxide.

This phenomenal study by Alexandre Pohl and colleagues investigates in a very comprehensive way how estimates of the #oxygen #isotope composition of seawater bias our #climate reconstructions, one of the most important uncertainties in #paleoclimate research.
