  • I use both. Sadly, I have lots of software that doesn't work (or works pretty bad) on Linux. I love Linux, but there's no denying it can be frustrated, specially if your hardware doesn't support it, and that applies to too many people who has no saying in the hardware they use.

    So in what world? Corporate world, science, CAD modelling...

  • More appropriate in terms of what? Batteries and renewable fuels could serve two applications. And be more practical in certain locations.

    The infrastructure can be location based. Doesn't make sense to have EV in certain locations with poor grid coverage, or renewable fuels in big cities.

    We have plenty of technologies with double infrastructure, I mean EV and carbon based fuels are both around, no problem whatsoever, even better on because we don't rely on a single infrastructure. Renewable fuels can use a similar infrastructure to natural gas with a few tweaks. We have fiber optic, cable phone, 4/5G, all serve the "same" purpose but for different applications. There's no "winner" there.

    Batteries don't deliver power as fast as fuels, so depending on what you need as a consumer you can decide to go for EV (single passenger small car for cities) or renewable fuels for long range, or high powered trucks for freight and heavy load.

  • There are laws of thermodynamics and there are laws of kinetics.

    Fuels have much more power density than batteries. You can't deliver power as fast with a battery compared to a fuel. It doesn't matter if thermodynamically one is more efficient or greener than the other. You would be crazy to suggest moving an airbus with a battery, that's physically impossible.

    I'm a researcher in both fields (batteries and hydrogen)

  • There's no need for a "winner", why are people so fixated that it has to be one or the other?

    All the technologies we have are not exclusive, having more options is always better when it comes to energy.

    This "winning" debate has to stop. There's no gas vs diesel vs natural gas winner... There is no hydro, wind, PV winner.... They all can coexist just fine.

    There is a place for hydrogen fuel, and there's a place for battery vehicles.

    Stop debating this like they are football teams.

  • For the life of me, I tried every single pdf reader on Linux, none gets close to Adobe reader, in terms of compatibility, tools and nice UI. Every time I found the perfect one on Linux, days later I realised my collaborators couldn't see my highlights (or something of the sorts).

  • I use chatgpt for coding (millennial). You still need to know how to code though, because 50% of the time it doesn't work properly. You need to explain the nature of your variables, and the overall process you want to achieve. But I still save a good amount of time, because now I don't need to remember the specific syntax for a particular function, and it has saved me reading documentation because in can tell how some functions work by context.

    Not learning how to code because of ai is like not learning math because there are calculators, sure, you don't need to know the multiplication tables by heart, but you need to know what multiplication is and how it's used to solve real world pringles.

  • In my school uniform included shoes (or at least they had to be of a certain colour). True, you will know who is rich anyway, but the point of the uniform was not to hide who was wealthy, but instead level all clothes and avoid flashing.

    Personally, although I think uniforms don't serve their purpose, and kids are better off wearing whatever they want, I loved that I didn't have to think about what to wear when going to school.

  • Well it was not clear what you were referring to. The comment you replied was talking about the rules, not the kids wearing dirty clothes.

    Since when Lemmy got full of pretentious twats that label everyone stupid for having a misunderstanding that is clearly their fault?

  • It doesn't matter though, he's not the president and is not involved in any politicalmatters. Sure, he should be investigated if he did something wrong, but why is that relevant?
