If you're attacking Ukraine, the sites you launch those attacks from are fair game. As well as the infrastructure you need to support the invasion. A few small groups could do a lot of damage in Russia, without the bad press of bombing civilians. If nothing else, having to commit resources to tracking them down means those resources aren't being used to invade Ukraine.

Why? As hydrogen gains more popularity it's going to become cheaper and more efficient to extract. In fact, companies are already pushing for Green Hydrogen technology and looking at new methods of extraction and conversion.

There is always a give an take when it comes to new technology and the truth is that batteries and hydrogen are not quite there to force it on the market. If solid state batteries become a reasonable alternative, than EVs can make sense for personal vehicles, but if hydrogen is more cost effective and readily available it makes complete sense as a clean fuel source for personal vehicles

“Politician was close to another politician” just isn’t as salacious huh?

That seems like a far more likely connection point. Bet you could dig up all sorts of Republican arrestees associated with prominent national Republican politicians. But that’s never been newsworthy either.

These systems must store hydrogen at thousands of PSI for the energy density to rival petrol based fuels. The ideal storage state is nearer to 10,000 PSI where hydrogen becomes slurpy-like in composition.

The material science is coming along. One challenge with hydrogen fuel tanks is if a tank is punctured in an accident, you have rapid expansion of hydrogen gas as it equalizes to atmospheric pressure, and a likely fire which has little color. (Look at the FLIR view here: https://youtu.be/0aDC2ZmikRE )

This makes it difficult to determine where flames are.

Still rooting for this tech though since it gives us amazing possibilities.

No, because I didn't make one. If I go back far enough into my post history, though, I can find posts about the Republican call-boy White house scandal, (repuplican) Lawrence Kings Savings and loan scandal, Roy Cohn's special relationship with Trump, etc...

Should I stick to ONLY pointing out Republican-afffiliated pedos, and avoid the Democrat-affiliated ones? Would that make you happy?
