A recent poll asked what's the longest period of time you think you could go without power in your home. The most popular answer was "one to five hours." 17% can handle that. 10% said they can do "six to 10 hours."
9% said one day, 8% said two days, and another 8% are prepared. They could do "more than a week." On the flipside, 7% say they can't make it an hour, and 5% said they can't go without power for "any length of time."

A professor has created a device he calls “Taste the TV,” according to Reuters, and it does exactly what the name implies. Homei Miyashita says he hopes his “TTTV” will let people experience things like far-away world-class restaurants without leaving their own home, which has become an increasingly understandable desire in the past two years of the pandemic.
According to a demonstration video researchers blended up various foods and used sensors to “taste” them. Then, chemicals are sprayed onto a rolling plastic sheet (or a disposable tray for those who don’t feel comfortable licking a plastic-covered screen) in combinations that recreate the flavor. The sheet is then rolled out over the display so you can lick those sweet chemicals and rolled away once you’re done for easy disposal.
Gross....read more and see the sort of hilarious video here. (the use of a fake tongue makes me laugh.)
