Yeah, have you seen the size of those? Those are chem lasers in order to get the wattage needed to destroy something.

Plus you need the electronics/mechanics to track the device perfectly to keep the laser on target in order for it to do damage.

All completely unnecessary to drop a small drone out of the sky.

WTF, how can they just make a change like that, and it get approved to be on the road?

Youtube comment,

Tesla that crashed into a pole, it was on fire, and the driver was trapped behind the laminated glass. Scary situation.

The first in crew that responded had a firefighter try to break the glass with a conventional window punch device, that didn't work.

Then he tried smashing it with some forcible entry tools, that didn't work either.

The driver ended up dying. It took 45 mins to extinguish the flames and 15 mins to get the car doors open.

I did.

I bought my 3080 back in 2020, because I knew AI was the future of graphics, based on all the R&D and white papers nVidia was pumping out up to that point.

No regrets.

Not my problem nVidia was the only one to invest in the tech, while AMD relied solely on TSMC to shrink their dies.

It has nothing to do with brand loyalty or fanboys or any of that shit.

It's just straight up better tech.

My point is simple.

Hydrogen derived from natural gas can not be used in fuel cells. Only hydrolysis hydrogen is viable.
It is one of 'many' reasons why hydrogen fuel will never be a thing.

  • Along with Hydrogen seeping through everything

  • Along with Hydrogen embrittlement

The energy efficiency loss to convert Solar/Wind/Nuc -> Hydrogen -> Mechanical or Solar/Wind/Nuc -> Hydrogen -> Electrical -> Mechanical

Will never be cost effective compared to Solar/Wind/Nuc -> Electrical(batt) -> Mechanical

Hydrogen has been known to man for a 1000 years, and yet
Gobal International WARS have been fought in the past century along with massive geopolitical maneuvering and trillions upon trillions of $$$ spent on the energy sector.

Do you really thing we'd be spending the $$$ we do for deep sea drilling if hydrogen was even close to being a viable resource?

No new technology has been developed that makes hydrogen useful. No. Fuel Cells are not it.
There just isn't enough energy gained by connecting Hydrogen -> Oxygen no matter what process you come up with.

Unless we find a way to fuse hydrogen together, hydrogen is a dead end and always has been.
