We should have given them Wyoming or perhaps Oklahoma.

Right, only stupid assholes (like Cummins) want to do hydrogen combustion engines. It's a senseless waste of efficiency, but if you are an engine company and don't care about anything but profits and the world can go fuck itself, it's what you do.

What I want is something that recognizes stuff, labels it if I look at it long enough, provides links to more info, does translations of written text from signs to books, does measurements of objects... Basically a lot of stuff I can do with my phone already but which would be a lot more convenient without having to use my hands. Look at an engine part and get the right manual page, look at a bolt and get a torque spec...

The other thing is, if you know how to make a hybrid, you know how to make an EV. It's not like it's hard to scale up an electric power system. The motor driver is a small challenge, but the rest is just more and or bigger with no real complexity changes. So there is really no excuse for them not being able to make a compelling EV.

Part of hydrogen technology has improved a lot. A partnership between GM and Honda significantly improved fuel cells, mostly in the cost department.

Storage is still terrible, though, which is why it's failing.

Maybe someday someone will solve the hydrogen storage problem in a reasonable way, and then it might take off. But if batteries continue improving as they are then it's going to be even harder for it to catch up.

Systemd caused me problems I couldn't reasonably troubleshoot without debugging systemd, so I left Ubuntu and derivatives for Devuan, where I am back on sysvinit. Good riddance to that poorly conceived and even more poorly written trash.

Did they fix in version 6 the KDE bug that was causing some programs running under wine to only run when they were not in the foreground? I left plasma 5 for XFCE over that. As a side benefit, Thunar has sane drag and drop behavior.

In that case no agreement longer than a couple pages should be enforceable since it's arduous to comprehend the full import if you are not a lawyer.

High quality AR with normal glasses has an absolute crapload of obvious applications. Low quality AR with a huge machine strapped to your face has very few.

The technology to do it well enough for consumer acceptance doesn't exist yet. What apple learned is what everyone else already knows. Yay?

If you can't sue over anything then you can be prevented from suing over anything.

" Even if I didn't like Google's set of cloud customers I could still work on Google Maps with a clear conscience."

Only if you're so dumb as to think those divisions don't both wind up on the same balance sheet and padding the same pockets.

"Simping for Hamas is absolutely a crystal clear example of employees... of human beings in general... who "did the wrong thing."

Yes, netanyahu, who told us that he was deliberately funding Hamas back in 2017 for the purpose of developing support for violently conquering Palestine, certainly did the wrong thing. So why are we funding genocide? He's an American citizen!

"who the fuck is the UN to tell ANY sovereign power what to do, much less occupy any country?"

Good point. They should not have founded the nation of Israel in the partition of Palestine in the first place.

But now that they have, there is a moral obligation to address the problem of Israel perpetrating a holocaust against Palestine.

You are happy with a status quo which involves the torture and murder of Muslims, so you don't want anything done. Just admit that so we can move on without you.

What are you talking about? The "infra" (you absolute tool) for a hydrogen storage peaker is a concrete pad and a grid connection.
