And that is why electoral reform is important; so that splitting the vote is not penalised.

Written from NZ who adopted MMP about 30 years ago.

The issue with aviation hydrogen is… well, lots.

• Fuel cells are heavy and direct combustion is inefficient and tougher than burning kerosene.

• Aircraft typically use the wing structural members as the fuel tank walls. Both cryogenic and pressurised options make that a non-starter.

• Lower density means much bigger tanks.

• Self-vapourising fuel is a major crash issue.

• Round trip efficiency for H2 is still terrible.

Plants may not be particularly efficient per km^2 but arable land isn’t actually that hugely scarce.

Reducing aviation is really the only thing that’s actually going to work.

Biofuels/ethanol/SAF are much the same; often derived from corn.

In many cases, the oil/gas/electricity used for harvesting, processing, cracking etc. is actually comparable to or exceeds the carbon released by simply drilling for and burning the oil in the first place.

Sounds like they need to move to either ZIF connectors or 48V power; this kind of power over high pin counts isn’t really practical.

There’s a reason electrical codes don’t usually let you use parallel conductors below about 4AWG/60A per conductor.

I’m not sure that lossy compression on vectors is strictly impossible.

You can do things like store less colour information and simplify splines so that curves are less complex.
