Storing hydrogen is really hard, which results in heavy storage equipment. It’s also very explosive.

When you weigh (literally) up the storage requirements for hydrogen versus electricity (batteries), electricity wins, especially as it can be generated any which way you like.

Handling hydrogen within the bounds of a powerplant is feasible, not in end usage scenarios like vehicles.

It’s not a crime when the President does it!

OP appears to be one of those Yanks that doesn’t know that the USA isn’t the whole world.

Hey, leave the rest of the world out of this. Y’all elected this idiot (spare me your protestations).

pointing to a potential doomsday scenario in which manufacturing disappeared from European countries, causing mass job losses, collapse in the tax base and potential multigenerational unemployment and spiralling social benefits costs.

This guy’s not been paying attention for the last four decades.

Oddly it does say “adding memory back into its portfolio” which implies that they used to do memory, so they might have mothballed facilities.

It’s still a mammoth undertaking though.

Also, if they’re already producing on-die DRAM for SoC’s then perhaps that’s their entry point.

most printers were serial

I think you mean parallel. There were serial printers, but the vast majority were parallel.

The introduction of muskets in New Zealand in the early 19C is well argued by respected NZ historian James Belich that it was actually the potato that enabled the wars as a reliable year-round food source.

Potatoes were incredibly important in 19C NZ and still are a (probably the) staple food here.

That’s exactly what I thought as soon as I read the title.

Owners will have an item (months/years) far longer than a reviewer will (hours/days).

They’re incomparable.

I needed it explained to me when I first heard it :-)

I probably would have got it after a few more hours of processing… I hope.

Three logicians walk into a bar. The barman asks if they all want a beer.

The first says “I don’t know”, the second says “I don’t know”, the third says “yes”.

Also, pretty much all of Futurama.

Google Workspace/Education tools might be, but search is a commodity now and Google’s is terrible now.

But yeah, I still think you’re right upon reflection.

I see they’re well into the “Are we out of touch? No it’s our customers that are wrong” stage.

Apparently the correct answer to this is “grift until I’m president”.

Politicians are embarrassingly cheap.

“Oh, you made a $10,000 donation? HOLD ME BACK, THE CORRUPTION IS CALLING ME!”

That’s likely very specific to the country you’re in.

Consider a new-ish ex-lease SFF business PC. You’ll be spending a tiny fraction of the cost of a new machine (or of it’s RAM). You’ll also get PCIe slots.

It’s what I did for my OpnSense fire wall router.

Most PC’s will idle at (relatively) very low power.

Ah, right.

I was also stuck on a definition of “white washing” as the erasure of ‘non-white’ characters from film/literature.

What was it that you considered “white washing” it? I did (now that I check) misquote it “likeness” rather than “image”, but can’t see how that’s white washing it.
