We can it store it long term. It is one of the major strengths of hydrogen. Your claim is near 180 of reality.

No he didn't. It's just a bunch of random talking points and myths. He could've copy and pasted that answer from any of thousands of social media posts and it would've been nearly identical.

Neither was electricity until after we started to build wind and solar. People accused electrification plans of just enabling more coal. This style of argument is intentionally ignoring current and near-future developments. You're implying that nothing is changing or can ever change.

Again, you are perfectly recreating the same anti-wind and anti-solar arguments of the past. This is the same story, just with different names and dates. You really are attacking green energy. It's just via the "both sides are equally bad" style of attack.

Yes, people outright claimed that large scale deployment of wind or solar were impossible forever. There were even books written entirely about explaining how it was impossible forever. Entire energy research groups made annual predictions of imminent collapse of wind and solar power deployments, because it was assumed that it was just impossible forever. It's pretty obvious you had no memory or are too young to know about all of that.

Again, that is the same thing people said about wind and solar. The naysayers also claimed that they were impossible for similar reasons.

It doesn't matter that you personally didn't attack wind and solar. You are attacking green energy now, and doing the same thing as those that did attack wind and solar.

Then you're missing the point: Wind and solar were heavily dismissed or ridiculed when they were getting started. People mocked them just like what you're doing now.

Critics of hydrogen are just repeating BS from either the fossil fuel industry or the battery industry. It is just a repeat of anti-wind and anti-solar rhetoric back when they were just getting started.

That's true of ethanol, but not biodiesel. High cost is a consequence of insufficient supply. Basically, it was how the market stopped further biofuel growth.

Then China is just repeating Brazil. Brazil was one of the few countries that could pull off biofuels in a real way. But it was a unique situation, and it doesn’t work elsewhere.

"Flying cars" are pretty much always shitty helicopters.

This is just a repeat of the same old pro-RISC myths from decades ago. There is very little performance difference between x86 and any RISC based CPU, at least when pertaining to the ISA itself. Apple merely has the advantage of having far more resources available for CPU development than their competitors.

No. This is just a return to the days of the IE-only web. It will be problematic but it won't be the end of the web.
