The main broadcaster in mainland China, CCTV, aired the completion of a solar-to-liquid fuel project. Using electricity from photocells, it was possible to synthesize a liquid product with a methanol content of 99.5%. Work on this project in China began in 2001, and by January 2020, the development had been completed in general and an experimental installation had been created.
It is reported that on an industrial scale, one plant can produce 1,500 tons of methanol per year, while processing 2,000 tons of CO2. Methanol is obtained in the process of synthesis from carbon monoxide and hydrogen on a catalyst. For this, hydrogen is obtained in the process of electrolysis of water, which requires energy, in particular, from sunlight. Each ton of hydrogen produced, according to the source, is equivalent to storing energy in the amount of 33 MWh.
For US and EU it is very important to destroy all present car industry before any of such projects will be available. As their elites dream about total control and rental electric cars for population.
Multiple think tanks stated that lack of autonomous fuel is very important in controlling population and local business.

Starting on July 1, 2021 we are reducing the service fee Google Play receives when a developer sells digital goods or services to 15% for the first $1M (USD) of revenue every developer earns each year. With this change, 99% of developers globally that sell digital goods and services with Play will see a 50% reduction in fees. These are funds that can help developers scale up at a critical phase of their growth by hiring more engineers, adding to their marketing staff, increasing server capacity, and more.
While these investments are most critical when developers are in the earlier stages of growth, scaling an app doesn’t stop once a partner has reached $1M in revenue — we’ve heard from our partners making $2M, $5M and even $10M a year that their services are still on a path to self-sustaining orbit. This is why we are making this reduced fee on the first $1M of total revenue earned each year available to every Play developer, regardless of size. We believe this is a fair approach that aligns with Google’s broader mission to help all developers succeed. We look forward to sharing full details in the coming months.
Such nice move won't affect Google income much, as small developers are taking less and less of total Play Store sales. Most of Google income now comes from apps sold by big corporations or startups that are also funded by big organized companies.
Several high-end models will include a Cognitive Processor XR that tries to mimic the way your brain processes images by surveying each frame of video and picking out the most important zones to optimize.
Guys, I perfectly understand that Sony has too many people and lot of them have nothing to do. But it is not so hard to find something useful and nice for them to work on, even fixing such non poetic things like video formats support, proper work with subtitles and so on. Even making general user interface to feel like you did not accidentally run Windows 10 on 486 computer could be already real breakthrough.
But please... get your dirty hands out of touching image. Just show me it as it is, accurate and precise with all the flaws and issues.
Germany has suspended the AstraZeneca coronavirus vaccine as a precautionary measure. This was reported to journalists on Monday at the Ministry of Health of Germany.
"The German government, as a precautionary measure, suspends vaccination with AstraZeneca, following the latest recommendation of the Paul Ehrlich Institute (German medical regulator)," the department noted.
"The European Medicines Agency will decide whether and how the new information will affect the admission of the vaccine," the German ministry said.
Danish health authority announced that vaccination with AstraZeneca in the country was temporarily suspended. Several other European countries, including Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Norway and the Netherlands, have suspended vaccine use due to reports of rare cases of blood clots forming and a decrease in the number of platelets in the blood among those who are vaccinated over 50 years of age.
The French authorities have suspended the use of the vaccine produced by the British-Swedish company AstraZeneca and the University of Oxford, pending a decision by the European Medicines Agency (EMA). This was announced on Monday by French President Emmanuel Macron, speaking at a press conference following the Franco-Spanish summit in Montauban.
"On the recommendation of the French Minister of Health Olivier Veran, it was decided to suspend the use of the AstraZeneca vaccine. We expect that tomorrow afternoon the EMA will publish a conclusion on this drug," Macron said.
Total ban can happen as soon as next week.
The Indian government has developed a bill that will completely ban cryptocurrencies in the country.
Storage, release, mining, trading and transfer will face a fine or criminal liability. At the same time, citizens will be given six months to get rid of cryptocurrency assets. If the bill is passed, India will become the first major economy to completely ban cryptocurrencies.
Of course, Indian government do this not because they love you. Main reasons are ability to avoid taxes and big energy consumption.
