  1. From water on Consumer Hydrogen Fuel Cells · · Score: -1

    As far as I know, just about everyone has water and electricity.

  2. Re:You get it from hydrocarbon gasses and liquids. on Consumer Hydrogen Fuel Cells · · Score: -1

    Actually, you can get a simple household hydrogen converter which just plugs into a garden hose and a electrical hotpoint.

    It costs about US$7 to fill a 2.5kg tank.
    Which will last about 500km in a fuel cell car.

  3. Re:Fuel cells are the way to go, but... on Consumer Hydrogen Fuel Cells · · Score: -1

    They are putting them in cars, new zero pollution cars by Ford, BMW, etc.

    Actually, petrol or diesel is far more dangerous when it burns. Hydrogen is very safe.

    BTW, Hydrogen Fuel Cell cars get 50% fuel effiency. You only need a 2.5kg tank to get you 500km. A petrol or diesle would need about 10 litres to get that far.

    I've seen it on an iBook, 1 had 10.1, 1 had 10.04 .

    All the McD's, KFC's & BK's in new zealand have eftpos. I think nz is the most cashless society in the world, the only time I use cash is when rounding makes it a bit cheaper or when buying from very small stores.

  16. Re:Security on Legislating Insecure Encryption · · Score: 0

    GCSB (a NSA partner agency in new zealand) tried to hire me, then described me as a lunatic when I told them to get stuffed.

  17. Mac mp3 programs on File Sharing: Decentralizing, Open-Source Fasttrack · · Score: 0

    most blow, especially mactella and audigalaxy, they just crash before anything happens.

  25. Mpeg4 plays great on a 33.6k connection, on Sun, Philips Push MPEG-4 Up Steep Hill · · Score: 0

    You only need cable or worse, ADSL, if you want to have full screen video downloads or multiple uploads.
