Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion. We have an actively updated blocklist, which you can see here: https://lemmy.world/post/2246130 if you feel like any website is missing, contact the mods. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted seperately but not to the post body.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source.
Posts which titles don’t match the source won’t be removed, but the autoMod will notify you, and if your title misrepresents the original article, the post will be deleted. If the site changed their headline, the bot might still contact you, just ignore it, we won’t delete your post.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials or celebrity gossip is allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis.
7. No duplicate posts.
If a source you used was already posted by someone else, the autoMod will leave a message. Please remove your post if the autoMod is correct. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners.
The auto mod will contact you if a link shortener is detected, please delete your post if they are right.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

Hydrogen works basically the same as natural gas. The problems of handling it are readily solvable.
This is hilarious.
It's the smallest gas molecule and will pass straight through the walls of containers meant to contain LNG.
The amount of compression required to yield liquid Hydrogen is vastly different.
Nothing at all is the same.
Propane? Sure. Woodgas? Yes. Hydrogen? Totally different set of physical challenges that are very expensive to work around.
A hydrogen molecule is larger than helium, mainly since helium is a noble gas and hydrogen is diatomic.
A lot of the criticism of hydrogen is just pseudo-scientific BS, mostly coming from BEV fans. It's basically a form of Gish Gallop. People need to realize that hydrogen is a totally ordinary gas with solvable problems.
No, the energy required to compress methane is far, far lower.
LNG is shipped at 246psi at the high end. Hydrogen at around 10,000 psi.
I'm eager for you to set me straight with facts.
Roughly it's 9% of energy content to compress Hydrogen. And 2.5% to compress methane.
I really wish this was as solved as you seem to think.
Energy lost in production of the hydrogen is currently extremely high. They cheat with methane just getting it out of the ground or, rarely, from biological decomposition capture.
Then you have significantly different physical specifications for the tanks. And the compression. And the storage. And the transfer.
If the production was free, the rest is pricey. Some day it may all be solved, but it simply hasn't been.
Come at me with facts. I will direct you to the energy department.
Currently 95% of hydrogen production is from natural gas.
You’re comparing liquid methane with compressed hydrogen. Not the same thing.
Like I just said, you’re using Gish Gallop. It’s just a pile of BS or half-truths. It’s not really an argument.
In reality, the problem of dealing with hydrogen is basically solved. It is similar to where solar power was a decade ago. The goal right now is to scale it all up. There are no other real issues left.
It's basically solved. Is argument taken right out of the Musk play book.
This guy's just trolling and y'all should stop feeding.
Hydrogen cars already exist. It's pretty obvious that these problems are solved. Guys like you are basically denying reality.
