Subject: [WSFA] Room temperature superconductors have been invented!

Room temperature superconductors have finally been invented.  No joke.

The critical temperature is 15C (59F), which certainly isn't *my* room
temperature, but it is some people's room temperature.  Unfortunately,
it requires very high pressures.  Less than at the center of the Earth,
but not by much.  The superconductor is a compound of carbon, sulfur,
and hydrogen.  See https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-020-2801-z
