Johnny Bacigalupo and Rob Hussey have been hit with a £17,000 bill to fix their Tesla after it was damaged in the rain - they have been told to pay even if they say it's not their fault
Hydrogen is made from water. It too can be made from solar panels. Though probably from some kind of more centralized system than everyone with their own solar panels.
water is made of hydrogen and oxygen. it can be split through electrolysis into it’s components through the addition of electricity.
if baseband solar had the capacity you could power electrolysis production of hydrogen and it’s been proposed in a few places where solar is cheap and land is available.
yeah science bitches! I honestly had a whole rant fucking raving about how stupid someone could possibly be to think that ‘hydrogen is made from water’ but walked the dog before replying and let it just go.
I do weep for our future though, because goddamn, I’m a fucking moron. So if I’m the one dishing science to the chuds… we’re all fucked
Perhaps you should have considered they don’t speak English. Consider these phrases. “Hydrogen is made from water.” “Hydrogen can be produced from water.” “It too can be made using solar panels.” “It can also be produced using solar panels.” Syntactically, both sets are very similar, but have very different meanings.
Sometimes we need to take a step back and see if there’s a legitimate reason people say or do certain things instead of assuming everyone is hopelessly stupid.
*I don’t know if they speak English as a first language, a second, or at all. But just given the odd phrasing, I suspect it was fed through a translator. And Lemmy is more diverse than some other social platforms.
I don’t see anywhere that I assumed you were an asshole. I merely pointed out one possibility why something so clearly wrong could have been said that way. And you yourself acknowledged that you hadn’t checked to see if that made sense. And now you’re jumping to conclusions about the motivations of others again, rather than asking them if that’s their motivation. If there’s a pattern, I’d say it’s that one. And even there, jumping to conclusions doesn’t make you an asshole, but your response after doing so might.
…and all of that was written while I ignored the emoticon at the end, so reading more into context is maybe something I should do. ;)

yeah the reason you’re getting these downvotes:
water is made of hydrogen and oxygen. it can be split through electrolysis into it’s components through the addition of electricity.
if baseband solar had the capacity you could power electrolysis production of hydrogen and it’s been proposed in a few places where solar is cheap and land is available.
The numbers are important in such considerations.
Science!

Applesauce is made from apples in the same way hydrogen is made from water.
I appreciate your advocacy for a generous interpretation but I see nothing wrong with the claim hydrogen is made from water.
perhaps! I can be a judgemental asshole. But I also figured after the first dozen other people downvoted them I’d at least mention it.
edit: no, looking at their post history, I think they have a fine grasp on english, just not basic physics or chemistry.
I didn’t check their history, could be the case.
so you jumped to assume I was the asshole because you lacked complete data.
I see there’s lots of that going around so I’ll try to treat you with the kindness and respect you deserve.
UNLIKE MR “Hydrogen is made from water. It too can be made from solar panels.”
tsk tsk tsk :D

Wait til they find out about dihydrogen monoxide AKA the drink that 100% of people have and eventually die
