... more matter was formed than antimatter at the big bang for reasons that only existed at the moment (or maybe before) of creation and therefor will forever be unknown. Makes as much sense as anything else.

The article can refute all it wants given its just a journo regugitating the sales material.. In blustery conditions wind will frequently change direction due to vortexes both close to and away from the ground. There can also be downdrafts.

Problems:
- Fragile
- Don't generate much power particularly during light winds.
- If the wind suddenly stops or changes direction your kite is wrecked.

They were saying something similar ~6 years ago. They'll find the edge cases are a bitch and they won't be able to just fire all the drivers to "increase shareholder value" but mainly so the c-suite can get even bigger bonuses.

Range matters when a country is 3000 miles across with very large empty areas. For the same reason EV uptake in australia is pretty muted too at only 10%. Driving an EV in europe when large connurbations are at most only 50-100 miles apart with well serviced highways between them is a different story to being in the middle of the outback with the nearest town 200 miles away.

Another divestment of a perfectly functioning business unit simply to pump up a single years dividends and bonuses for the c-suite who probably all fucked off long ago.

They've been around for a while, probably waiting for them to life expire. All the recent zero emissions buses have been battery.

They tried a hydrogen train here in the UK too a few years ago. It quietly sank without trace.

Don't forget the inexplicable hiving off of the server business into HPE which frankly is the real successor to the original HP, not the as you say cheap shit manufacturer that calls itself HP now.

"unreliable than wind."

I agreed with you until that but sorry, the above is just total BS. France has been using majority nuclear power for almost 70 years without a problem.

" Which doesn't stop blowing for months or even years"

Umm, I'm afraid it does. A non moving high pressure system - very common in europe these days - produces very little wind. Meteorology not your strong point either is it.

A load of 2nd rate hallucinated slop to fool idiots into handing over their money. The hype is bad enough, but when it starts to impact on normal peoples lives for basic services its time for someone to call time on it.

... to digest these substances. Unfortunately it'll probably be way past the time that the food chain and ecosystem has been poisoned by them.

Just like newtonian mechanics couldn't explain the orbit of mercury without a load of kludges and then relativity came along and solved it. I suspect we need a whole new branch of physics to find the true answer.

Sure, they clean the heads - using friction. Unfortunately this also wears the head down and shortens its life. Take the lid off the machine and clean the head with a cotton wool bud and isopropyl alcohol.

There is no single UK police force ... sorry "service", there are 45 separate forces. The procurement notice comes direct from the UK government, not the police. Would have been good if the author of the article had got these basic facts correct.
