    1. Categorically, 100%, the US puppeted Ukraine provoked the war, and idealizes a perpetual war on Russia to the last Ukrainian. Complete CIA captured politicians and media disinform you of Russia being in an offensive war. Even if you have a different false opinion, Russia agrees with my statement, and Russia’s opinion is all that is relevant to Russia policy.

    2. It is stupid to wage war on Russia. You don’t win even without strategizing MAD as a victory of least destroyed. Inflation, and a Russian economic shift to support its own existence while casually pretending our own economies are fine.

    3. There are plenty of nuclear scenarios where MAD is a US instigated choice. Nuclear strikes on any US global base, or Air carrier fleet is not a missile headed for US that requires launching 1000s in return.

    4. Cheering on the US escallation, that was not used for any Ukrainian strategic advantage/survival such as a Kursk withdrawal, is cheering for your rulers to suicide you. US economy is on the edge of collapse and cannot survive a nuclear strike, terrorist act, or many more natural disasters. Forcing Russia to destroy US economy/sustainability is not good for you, and you need to remove head from ass in your celebrations.

    That is pure empire/hegemon propaganda that gets to write your history. The same applies to Ukraine agitation Holomodor designation, and the writers would will tell you Hamas is responsible for existing and near future genocide.

    China responded to terrorism through education and job creation, in what is now a free and prosperous sharing region. Empire has purely demonic intentions in its foreign policy and propaganda.

    if one major power loses influence, another will benefit from the vacuum.

    Multipolarism is not a vacuum. Hypocritical “Rules based world order” delusion backed by sycophantic colonies to tyranical CIA is a propaganda tool that deludes an empire into over reaching and collapse and “the vacuum”.





  • The economics of batteries are that they must be fully charged and discharged daily to pay off. A 2 day average cycle is double the cost of energy in using them.

    In spring and fall we get positive happy headlines that “all electricity was provided by solar/renewables” during 1 hour or so during a day, or that electricity prices went negative. These seasons are low demand with good enough sun. Batteries get let those days/seasons get to 24 hour power from renewables, but then summer heatwaves won’t fill demand even with more sun, winter will not charge up the batteries enough. H2 electrolysis is needed to have enough solar and batteries to cover all those needs, and then use H2 to cover winter supplemental needs. H2 supports not just more solar, but also more batteries. Makes sure batteries can always discharge before the sun comes up.

    imagine refueling times is not necessarily going to be critical for all types of commercial use-cases.

    Commercial vehicles, need to pay operators for downtime, and downtime is time not earning revenue. it is a bid deal to them.

    Aviation struggles with the relatively low energy density in H2.

    At $4/gallon diesel/kerosene, a plane will cost 100x in fuel as its purchase costs. We can already produce green H2 at $2/kg compressed. Which is equivalent to $1/gallon gasoline fuel when used in a FC. Redesigning planes, and delta wing for long range specifically, for H2 is worth liquifying the H2 for the weight savings and range over compressed. It’s also that price that can compete well with commercial EV charging.




  • The difference is that the electrolysis can be done at producer convenience. Sometimes wholesale electricity prices (midday due to high solar penetration) are negative or ultra cheap. Transporting H2, even by truck, can be cheaper than the US typical 8c/kwh electric transmission charge. For many areas, enough solar in winter has 3x more summer production and essentially unusable. A balance of solar and H2 produced in summer, can provide the cheapest necessary energy for winter. An alternative is summer exports with winter imports.

    Batteries alone are also subject to curtailment, or not enough charging in winter. H2 can be stored at $1/kwh, where a pipeline is free transmission of withdrawals different from deposit locations. The energy efficiency round trip is less important than the $ efficiency of energy delivery.


  • but whatever damages russia can only be seen as a boon for humanity.

    Yes, I too get $1 trickled down everytime Russia loses $1. My life is invested in the high oil prices since the war started, and I hope more services are cut so that more can be spent to diminish Russia. I’m sure the US will win a nuclear war too, so everything will be worth it. Saying this, helps make sure I get a spot in the VIP nuclear bunkers when the Fallout Boy reality will surely just get us to support the rulership of those who destroyed the US.
