explanation for downvoters:

that was not a comment about apostrophe usage but the fact that in a relationship you're having a baby, not just the woman.

... but maybe you believe that isn't so and then ... you're not either.

This is the decentralized Internet. It will never function exactly as the centralized one.

I'm old enough to have run a Fidonet node. When I moved house, the points under my node had to switch upstream.

We do however need to work on tools to minimize friction when servers change so that users won't need to more than a click or two.

What people are trying to tell you is that when you've studied Logic at University level "basic assumptions" in elementary school level math aren't always what they seem to be.

I agree it's not very relevant though, seeing as we know what level this particular math question is at.

With enough energy resources aren't limited. Solar is that energy, since for desalination we can perform it purely during daytime and won't need to build out batteries etc as for other energy consuming industries.

Cost isn't relevant - this is something we must choose to do as a society instead of emptying out the aquafiers.

If near-coastal water needs are solved using desalination you can keep a lot more water at higher elevations.

Is your "no way" quantified with numbers or is it a gut feeling?

I did the math in a recent discussion and a square meter solar panel desalinates 60 cubic meters of seawater per year. Or, phrased differently, a square kilometer solar panel array supplies enough desalinated water for 60 square kilometers of crops.
