I am still not sure I understand the purpose of the OUYA. If it doesn't run existing Android games, then it is just another locked-down device/market from someone else.

You are right and this is why the Ouya will fail bigtimes.

This _IS THE_ streaming device for TV/FILM content connected to your TV of century!

Get it? A device that you can play games with and when you tried of the games, watch some movies instead! Or tried of the movies, play some games!

Why is Ouya not in bed with Netflix on thisone? Easy answer; they would f*cking own the world as we know it, stupid motherfuckers!!

I don't think that you can use hydro as a energy resource in a car or a bus. With compressed air you can.

The context of the discussion is storing power for residential backup and load leveling purposes. Cars and buses are another article

ok. fair enough.

How've gonna store the water energy in your residential? With compressed air you can.

Wind, it's a nightmare for grid operators to manage

Instead of generating electricity directly in wind turbines, generate compressed air. Transport that energy in pipes and store it on land. On land you have an compressed air driven electricity generator for generating your electricity.

Now you go from peak energy to base load energy. With this, wind will not be an nightmare for grid operators to mange anymore.

The different to use compressed air as a storage for energy instead of batteries, is that you can discharge a compressed tank more times than you can discharge a battery.
