- Comment on Engineering Breakthrough Opens Door to Cheap Hydrogen Power 1 week ago:
The cost of hydrogen is not the fuel cells but that hydrogen is made from oil.
- Comment on Wyoming lawmakers consider nuclear waste storage as tensions rise over microreactor plant proposal 3 weeks ago:
Nuclear waste is 96-94% pure fuel.
We need nuclear recycling NOT nuclear waste storage.
If a mining company found a 94% pure ore in the ground, would they celebrate their luck or complain that it isn’t 100% pure and thus could be sold without processing…
- Comment on Nuclear plants too expensive? China shows low-cost construction possible 3 weeks ago:
If nuclear energy used the same accounting practices as coal, oil or natural gas energy plants; they would have to pay their customers to hit zero profit.
- Comment on repair cafes are oriented to “give you fish”, rather than “teach a man to fish” 5 weeks ago:
The problem is money, if they had stable funding they could go the library route of training and equipping people with the tools and skills without limits.
But the models they work in don’t have that and they are just struggling to survive and do what good they can in the now.
- Comment on U.S. residential solar on the brink of collapse 1 month ago:
So you feel China is betting on Silicon and that the actual future is Gallium arsenide ?
Because it has a direct band gap and at 1/50 of the thickness would be cheaper and more efficient than silicon?
- Comment on U.S. residential solar on the brink of collapse 2 months ago:
Tell us more about your field of solar research and what bit around it you think we might need to know about.
- Comment on FYI: TeamViewer is *much* better than Chrome Remote Desktop for aging hardware 2 months ago:
ssh -X ${hostname} works better than both even on ancient hardware (pre 1990)
If you are going to self-host please embrace a shell (bash, powershell, fish, zsh, etc) any shell; then you’ll be fast and productive even at 300 Baud.
