  • The aeropress never made coffee well because it used pressure. It excelled at being a faster cafetière/french press with a paper filter and easier clean up. Outside of large metal lever brewers steams they only way to get pressure that will impact a brew significantly. The oxo rapid brew is more mechanically complex, harder to clean and can only brew a limited set of ways the aeropress can. I don’t think it will out compete the aeropress.


  • I would guess there would be no heat impact on the climate. The same heat was already in the climate, it’ll be expelled in a similar way.

    Fossils fuels extract stored energy and burn it, but it’s not the heat they create that warms the climate. It’s the CO2 they release that reduces the rate at which heat is expelled from the planet causing additional energy to be retained.

    This type of technology may reduce climate change if it’s used instead of desalination powered by fossils fuels. Or if the heat that was generated was captured and used for heating homes instead of fossils.

    The amount of energy we get from the sun far exceeds how much energy we can produce. We can’t really impact the climate by cooling and warming the planet directly. It’s leveraging effect of greenhouse gasses insulating the planet which causes climate change.

    I don’t think you got the central point. Protestants exist to protest Catholicism. A Protestant that recognises catholics as Christian’s wouldn’t be a Protestant.

    Different sects of Protestantism are able to recognise other sects as Christian’s because a central tentant of Protestant practice is the personal relationship with God. So different sects of Protestants find that easier to accept. Where as Catholics practice a relationship with God that is tied to the organisation and the Pope.

    Mormons are arguably a different religion altogether. Similar to how Jewish/Christian/Islam all share similar but different religious texts making them all different religions.

    The intended outcome is othering.

    You misunderstand reasonable. It does not mean good, more the natural conclusion given the context.

    It’s not ridiculous for Protestants to say catholics aren’t Christian. Protestant movements came about because they believed the Catholic Church wasn’t teaching the word of God. It’s not a coincidence it came about at a similar time to the printing press.

    As people became more literate they started to learn the contradictions between the priests and the bible. The reaction to this resulted in movements that preached personal relationships with God and rejection of false profits (worshiping popes, saints etc).

    If your not aligned with either of these religions is seems ridiculous. The reality is you can’t think Protestantism is the correct path if you believe Catholics are Christians. This is the same for many religions, they mostly claim they are right and everyone else is wrong.
