That is our policy. You ask, what is our aim? I can answer in one word -- tablets. Tablets, at all costs. Tablets, in spite of all terror. Tablets, however long and hard the road may be. For without tablets, there is no end to this thread...
It took me a lot of blood, toil, tears, and sweat

We shall go on to the end. We shall post from Europe, we shall post from the Americas, we shall post with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall demand our tablets, whatever the cost may be. We shall post from our homes, we shall post from our wokplaces, we shall post from the busses and the trains, we shall post from the hills; we shall never surrender.

No bother any more for me, digging this thread gives more joys than any topics about tablet.

But to get things back on track and avoid derailment:
https://soylentnews.org/article.pl?sid=15/11/09/1625240
When a material, typically a liquid, is confined by surfaces that it doesn't like, the material can be expelled from the confining region in a process called "dewetting."
University of Pennsylvania researchers have now discovered a new facet of this "dewetting" process, showing it is easier to initiate than previously believed. Using computer modeling, they showed how variations in the density of water molecules that are confined between two hydrophobic surfaces, can speed along this process.

(of which the former is still in the works and the latter was completed. however one might argue that the TM registration did not gain anything physical...)
