It shouldn't take an hour, but it does reasonably take at least ten minutes. Considering that you can get quite a bit of charge into an EV in not many more minutes, this is a long time.
When you add into that the multiple filling station explosions which occurred already it begins to look like a very, very bad deal.
No one has to sabotage green hydrogen technology, because it has to overcome physics.
Hydrogen production research is always ongoing, because there are so many uses for hydrogen. Even if there were zero people trying to use it as a motor fuel there would still be ample reason to develop more technologies for that.
"At the same time, H2 is really just another type of battery"
No. It works completely different from a chemical cell, which is what people mean when they say battery.
This is nonsense. Cryptography and secret codes have been around for as long as communication. One-time pads were first used on the telegraph in 1882.
I didn't say possible. I said practical. Strong crypto is hard. Secure key exchange is hard.
Governments have been breaking codes for as long as we have had codes.

I don't understand your point, I'm not arguing against hiring more teachers, I'm simply pointing out the quality of the teachers we have isn't great.
All of these things are part of the same problem. The best teachers are also the best equipped to take a job elsewhere. If they can't afford to survive on what's being paid, and they have other opportunities, they take them. There is also high burnout from having to be a babysitter to so many ill-mannered children, who got that way by emulating their ill-mannered parents.
We need more teachers, but that just means the teachers we have, need to work a little harder.
You sound like men that women won't talk to talking about women. Do you even know any teachers? I do, and they are working as hard as they can with what they're given already. Side note, most are women.
Weird that you would cite "Mainland China" here, when the same thing is entirely true of Western manufacturers.
It's not weird because only China is claiming that their borrowed thing is homegrown. Everyone else is acknowledging the roots of their product. You don't have to call out lies when people tell the truth.
By modern standards, where there are 25 million people in Los Angeles and immediately surrounding areas, no. But a million people in one place is still a lot.
Anyway stop talking about Europe like it's some isolated region, it's a sandwich.
PGE knows exactly what a utility company's job is. It's right in the law that they only really get paid for building new generation capacity, so that is clearly their primary job.
This is why we should nationalize the distribution infrastructure. We don't let them profit from maintaining that because it makes them cut even more corners.
It's also why they want to build nuclear. They get to profit more from more expensive projects. And the less power produced per dollar spent, the more generation projects they get to build, thus the higher their profits are.
We have maybe 50% of the teachers we need in the US, because we have maybe 50% of the teaching positions, and are willing to spend maybe 25% of the amount necessary to hire enough teachers at reasonable wages.
Really we need to be building approximately 1 school for every school we have now and hiring teachers accordingly so we can shrink class sizes.
However the education system we have now was deliberately compromised to avoid the creation of an "educated proletariat" (plug those words into google with the quotes and see what you get!) so we can't have that.
I thought it was a fork of Android
Nope: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
From the linked article, "while for smartphones, tablets and Huawei Watch which uses both, the system operates by utilizing a Linux kernel subsystem and executing the AOSP code with a modified EMUI user interface, enabling Android apps and HarmonyOS apps to run seamlessly through a compatibility layer in the userland outside the kernel"
AOSP code. Linux kernel. It's Android.
Just how many aspects of life do you think government should be in charge of changing people's behaviour?
All of those where they are incapable of making a sustainable decision.
I don't want politicians socially engineering mine or anyone's life.
I want politicians preventing the worst excesses by everyone, including politicians. That's because I have a nose, and other people are careless about waving their fists.
A traffic jam (or a music festival) concentrates a lot of other people in the area and the cell towers quickly become overwhelmed and boom... more stopped autonomous cars.
Hence why we need a mesh networking phone system, so that when you get more subscribers in an area you get more bandwidth, carrying that traffic node to node until it reaches another cell site. But the providers haven't figured out a way to lock us into their infrastructure while doing that yet...
As we removed poverty
No, you exported poverty.
It's just not necessary in 90% of Europe. We didn't build mega-cities in near tropical climate.
