It’s the year 2047, you’re lucky enough to afford one of these from the company store after many months of being docked for sub-optimal performance by the presiding AI. Your child will be able to drink water again, but for how long?

Why do people have such an arrogant attitude about this? Yeah, great that you live somewhere with abundant drinkable water. Many do not.

This is damn near useless anywhere without humidity.
