- Comment on If we can use hydrogen to power electric motors, why can’t we use water to run a car? 9 months ago:
You should look into hydrogen fuel cell technology. The biggest problem is the energy inefficiency in splitting water into hydrogen (energy intensive), and then using it to power a car is essentially using hydrogen as an inefficient battery. The on-board storage of hydrogen is problematic as well. Storing a gas is difficult and requires a lot more material than a tank for liquid patrol.
There are people trying to make it a more practical tech, but also a lot of nay-sayers as well.

Basically how I use Discord as well,. My favourite feature of Discord is when I get an "@everyone" ping from big servers and I click into the notification and the message disappeared into the void without fail.

- Comment on Alec Baldwin charged for shooting; 9 months ago:
Baldwin is one of the producer (boss), who did not enforce any safety standards (allowed crews to bring live ammo to the set, allowed armourer to be subpar), and ended up with one of his staff dead.
If you don't know how my analogy applies to the situation you clearly don't know enough about it to form an informed opinion.
ALL workplace safety standards should be the responsibility of the boss in some capacity. That's how safety standards are maintained. If the boss is allowed to shrug it off saying "it's not my fault the staff is an idiot" that's how we end up with new hires dying on the line. If you can't understand that I could only hope you aren't in charge of anyone's safety.
- Comment on Alec Baldwin charged for shooting; 9 months ago:
No one is absolving responsibility from the armourer.
But if I'm the boss of a warehouse, never enforce any OSHA safety standards against my staff, and one of them just signed off that they inspected the forklift that day without actually doing so, and I drove the forklift and killed someone because of the forklift's malfunction, I am, as the boss, partly responsible for the incident.
To say otherwise is flying against rules and regulations written in blood, as we can clearly see.
- Comment on Alec Baldwin charged for shooting; 9 months ago:
I went on exactly the same path as you and I only read about it when I came across the articles casually browsing, I didn't actively seek them out.
There are people that knew more and are still defending him, which is wild.
- Comment on Alec Baldwin charged for shooting; 9 months ago:
It's maddening the amount of people deflecting responsibility off of him. If a workplace safety incident happened, and the boss has cultivated the lax culture against safety AND is involved with said incident, but he's not responsible? I feel like I'm taking crazy pills.

Any alternative you would recommend? I'm mostly using it for video group call for dnd. Although convincing the group to change to yet another program would be the hardest part.

- Comment on A cargo plane flew 50 miles with no pilot onboard using a semi-automated system. An aviation expert says the technology could address the pilot shortage. 10 months ago:
I wonder how does ATC talk to the plane. Does it get routed to the remote pilot? The article describes controlling the plane through a series of menus. Does the pilot have enough flexibility when something unexpected happens like a sudden weather change or bird strike?

Wait 5 seconds and it plays or bombarded with ads that, at best, takes 5 second and an manual action before watching a video?
Yeah, if I wasn't using Freetube on desktop I'm still not watching ads.

- Comment on Microsoft won’t let you close OneDrive on Windows until you explain yourself 1 year ago:
Just throwing more personal anecdotal story, I use Mint at home and Win10 at work. The amount of time something wonky happen at work, like Teams being Teams, or issues connecting to wifi, are much higher than at home.
The only time I've touch the command panel is when there's some obscure programs I wanna try out. I don't even know how to delete a file using the Command Panel without looking it up first.
Using Mint as an Internet machine, and even gaming in my case with Steam making it so much easier, I feel much less resistance with Mint compared to Win10. Win10 just hides everything away and I feel like I need to twist its arm just to maybe have it do things I want, and I just want to print something. Mint was literally just plug and print. Mint feels more like Win7 than Win10 ever did to me.
