Activism is alive and well in New Hampshire even if I've been taking my sweet time on the reporting side of things. I will be posting trials of other activists and free staters as my time allows as well. I've got at least a handful of trials yet to be reported on. This case was a bit of an oddball case given that the state decriminalized small amounts of weed and cops generally don't ticket anyone any more. We went from 20 something tickets in Keene prior to the state's decriminalization of small amounts of weed to just 2 after (in the proceeding year). I guess this officer just had to come up with something to charge Alec over after his bluster and a failure on the false or mistaken stolen vehicle claim.

Quotes

  • Otto Kuusinen: As long as the working class wages only an economic struggle, the bourgeoisie does not see in that any great danger for itself; but when the working class organises politically, i.e., creates a political party which expresses its will as a class, the bourgeoisie begins seriously to fear for its rule. That is why reaction deals its main blows against the political party of the working class. At the same time, trying to undermine the party from within, capitalist propaganda endeavours to persuade the workers that they can do without their own party. One of the manifestations of bourgeois influence on the working class is the anarchist and anarcho-syndicalist denial of the leading role of a political party.
  • Democritus: Not from fear but from a sense of duty refrain from your sins.
  • Democritus: Many who have not learned wisdom live wisely, and many who do the basest deeds can make most learned speeches.
  • Democritus: Fools learn wisdom through misfortune.
  • Democritus: Strength of body is nobility in beasts of burden, strength of character is nobility in men.
  • Democritus: Neither art nor wisdom may be attained without learning.
  • Democritus: It is better to correct your own faults than those of another.
  • Democritus: Good means not (merely) not to do wrong, but rather not to desire to do wrong.
  • Democritus: Fame and wealth without wisdom are unsafe possessions.
  • Muammar Gaddafi: We will not surrender. We will defeat them by any means. We are ready for the fight, whether it will be a short or a long one. We will be victorious in the end. This assault is by a bunch of fascists who will end up in the dustbin of history.
  • Democritus: By convention sweet is sweet, bitter is bitter, hot is hot, cold is cold, color is color; but in truth there are only atoms and the void.
  • Democritus: We know nothing accurately in reality, but (only) as it changes according to the bodily condition, and the constitution of those things that flow upon (the body) and impinge upon it.
  • Democritus: Medicine heals diseases of the body, wisdom frees the soul from passions.
  • Democritus: Immoderate desire is the mark of a child, not a man.
  • Democritus: Men have fashioned an image of Chance as an excuse for their own stupidity.
  • Democritus: In a shared fish, there are no bones.
  • Democritus: Education is an ornament for the prosperous, a refuge for the unfortunate.
  • Democritus: The animal needing something knows how much it needs, the man does not.
  • Democritus: Moderation multiplies pleasures, and increases pleasure.
  • Democritus: If your desires are not great, a little will seem much to you; for small appetite makes poverty equivalent to wealth.
  • Democritus: No power and no treasure can outweigh the extension of our knowledge.
  • Democritus: In fact we do not know anything infallibly, but only that which changes according to the condition of our body and of the (influences) that reach and impinge upon it.
  • Democritus: Of practical wisdom these are the three fruits: to deliberate well, to speak to the point, to do what is right.
  • Democritus: 'Tis not in strength of body nor in gold that men find happiness, but in uprightness and in fulness of understanding.
  • Democritus: He who does wrong is more unhappy than he who suffers wrong.
  • Samuel P. Huntington: The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion (to which few members of other civilizations were converted) but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.
  • Marjori Palmer: One of the most morale-damaging aspects of the inflation was the "sack of Germany" that occurred at the height of the (1923) inflation. Anyone who possessed dollars or sterling was king in Germany. A few American dollars would allow a man to live like a millionaire. Foreigners swarmed into the country, buying up family treasures, estates, jewelry and art works at unbelievable low prices.
  • Lionel Robbins: It was the most colossal thing of its kind in history: and next probably to the Great War itself, it must bear responsibility for many of the political and economic difficulties of our generation. It destroyed the wealth of the more solid elements of German society: and left behind a moral and economic disequilibrium, a breeding ground for the disasters which have followed. Hitler is the foster child of the inflation.
  • Lenin: There is no trace of utopianism in Marx, in the sense that he made up or invented a 'new' society. No, he studied the birth of the new society out of the old, and the forms of transition from the latter to the former, as a natural-historical process. He examined the actual experience of a proletarian mass movement and tried to draw practical lessons from it.
  • Che Guevara: Many will call me an adventurer - and that I am, only one of a different sort: one of those who risks his skin to prove his platitudes.
  • Democritus: The first principles of the universe are atoms and empty space; everything else is merely thought to exist.
  • Bertolt Brecht: Lenin is enshrined In the large heart of the working class.

Dear studi0 community

We decided to add an #element #matrix #privateSpace #chatRoom to our setup and called it: tupambaeORGstudi0
Please be patient in any case as this is complete #Neuland for the admin in charge.

At least he managed to onboard a filmmaker, photographer and writer as the first step to understand how invites work!

So, hi there!
.. self-hosting based in Paris, France newbie @ elena@aseachange.com, director of The Illusionists documentary and #FOSDEM2025 traveler for your new proyect:
💌 #TheFutureIsFederated
The one who host's here 📷 photos apparently at @ ele@photos.elenarossini.com.

To begin with we created 3 rooms:

In the @EDIT | don't follow! profile we creatd already a postString for that Projekt with a very limited time horizon.

Next step will probably be creating a activityPub #podcast handle on cast.tupambae.com by @utopiArte, the admin over there, as content colection and conversation about the idea itself in the EDITing post is already up and running.
Part of the details concerning the cast domain is to figure out how to organize the tools #castopod gives us at hand as it looks like it has quite interesting options to organize cooperation, as stated briefly in a tutorial page created on that site, result of the #learningBYdoing process while installing it: brief Castopod tutorial

Last but not least, we are still trying to drag @lizzischmidt the creator and promotor of the #sundayGimp community experience that is alive and running for over a decade on #diaspora* on to our shores, but federation with diaspora, from a technical point of view, definitely has seen better times in the past. Maybe this very cross community chat option, added right here and now, can help to improve the communication for all of us.

This inicial publication will federate quite well out into the vast space of the #fediVerse, but to see comments from the diaspora bubble and the #activityPub sphear, youll have to visit this original page on this friendica server.
Unless of course you are friendican yourself.

So, with no more further introduction, let's jam the #fediFolks!

Favorite thing lately is finding an article I wish were in podcast form, saving the text to a .txt file, then having TTS Util use RH Voice to convert the file into an audio reading, and listen to my own little robotic FOSS nanny read me the stories I want to hear in my headphones as I do yardwork.

Favorite thing lately


over here @Red the Bean is to set up #podcast sites and play around with voices and languages:
cast.tupambae.com/
cast.tupambae.org/

Actually what is missing are more voices, impersonators of texts, texts, contributors as well as even some hint's about how to transform text's into other voices, always on linux or software that run's on linux of course.

There are even community forum pages like @Tutorial, @howTo and of course @studi0 for documentation and cooperation, all in the backyard of our #fediVerse ..

A first audio take that somehow sums up "life, the universe and everything" of @bitpickup:

Mindmap created with freeplane to increase confusion summing up in a graphical way, goals, realities and tools at hand.

Trying to drag others into this we mentioned:
@aiquez who had joined forces in the first @studi0 project #fallVonMerz and re-shared the first version of this post already.
@crossgolf_rebel - kostenlose Kwalitätsposts, a decade long contact out here in the fedi, kinda reference, who does audio recordings and has experiences with podcasts publishing on funkWhale. He fav'ed the first version of this post and added a thinking face to it.
@Mina became the self-proclaimed patovica bouncer, a contact that owns all three involved languages (spanisch/german/englisch), has apparently real life knowledge of the region down here (or there, or anywhere), and claims to see everything.
@Red the Bean, a confused squirrel.
@Daniel Prieto, a quiet confused local interested in mushrooms.

Right now mysteriously we might have gotten our hands on a local contact that can or could help, as pointed out in the initial audio take, when it comes to check the truths behind our virtual reality out here.

As a means of tools, besides ourselves and our very own skills, we do have:

fediVerse profileseach and every ones profile(s)
peerTube profileshere and there and everywhere
media pages the subdomain concept as exemplified in the fallVonMerz project
podcast instances tupambae dot.org and dot.com

Let's play and reinvent another wheel!

Se lo mandaron la misma noche que llego cuando estuvo pensando de salir rajando despues de que le dieron el antidoto porque tenia la perra en el coche en la policlinica del pueblo y no solo que es rearisca, estaba por estar al sol encerrada por un par de dias.

@mʕ•ﻌ•ʔm bitPickup
#bitPickedBookmark'ing this here and now out of several reasons:

  • primary #doDo right now @bitpickup is working on the #bothrops snake bit information at the phpBB forum reptiles section (see embedded link).
  • the peertube initial material sum up is to slow and should be seen at least at speed 1.5. Also It actually could need a remake cutting it down to a 5 minute short attention span tictoc version by anyone who'd like to help out and btw add to the @studi0 proposal of cooperating in content creation and working out on how to do that.
  • The final language of the sum up has to be spanisch and in any case a dubbing into Brazilian language too, as those represent the main public to address and an important audience for the entire project to catch.
  • Why didn't anybody responded to the #Houston distress call?
  • What happened to: "Quien la vuelve a molestar ( @SinMisterios ), se liga una. Je je." ?
  • There is still floating around a claim that some transcript of the initial audio take exists some where in time and space, is there any truth to or prove for that claim at all?
  • Who did the mention of the mastodon.uy admin and what for?

Yeah that profile play's quiet quiet.
Probably the best an admin profile can do. In any case I guess they would need to contact @admin first. At least that's how it should be.
Those security checks became quiet common since the mobbing incident on diaspora. That one left the venom deep down in the psyches of more than one out here.
Oh, and the call of attention by the social.tchncs team in the early stages on @jesuisatire.

> Sobre #hongos comestibles de #Uruguay

Ante que nada, genial @dprieto, gracias por el aporte. A ver si lo podemos integrar aun mejor a nuestros hilos y documentación. Por cierto, se agrego al reubicado sitio de huerta, ahora con nombre #permacultura y apellido #tupambae.com una sección "Fungi | Hongos | Setas":
permacultura.tupambae.org/view…

Por el momento sin tema ninguno, sin embargo con la idea de ir agregándole contenido, así que, si te parece bien usaremos estos textos tuyos con enlaces hacia aquí, o mejor, te damos acceso y lo aprovechas como mas te place. De hecho siempre esta la opción de hacer una copia completa del y pasártelo así como viene. Probablemente borrando a lo que no corresponde pasar, pero en si la idea y la oferta esta es es bien simple. Los sitios phpBB se pueden cambiar bastante fácil de dominio y son de código abierto. De hecho undernet monto uno recientemente. El de tupambae.com es un sitio cerrado, no solo que los foros han muerto, abierto se llenan de SPAM y si realmente ay gente que quieren participar con invitación por mail alcanza y sobra. Y actualizaciones a versiones mas nuevas tampoco tiene mucho sentido. Así como esta funciona, el diseño aun copa y ta. Tiene todo lo que hace falta, incluyendo robots.txt que manada a los crawler a donde corresponde, el internet de hoy ya no es lo que era. Por decirlo de alguna manera.

la tierra de nuestros nietos

En el fondo "la culpa" es del formato que plantea mastodon. Es friendica que lo evidencia de verdad. Al menos que mires estas cosas desde pantalla de compu y desde un punto de vista de "hilos secundarios" tampoco que importa mucho.
Ejemplo, el hilo de #buenosDias de este perfil:
mastodon.uy/@tierranietos/1144…

Todos los dias simplemente actualizo el tema inicial con la(s) imagen(es) del dia. Una respuesta diaria incial despues aranca "el hilo del dia". Si abris el ultimo comentario de este hilo veras solo el contenido de este dia onda "en una sola pagina web":
mastodon.uy/@bitpickup@troet.c…

mastodon.uy/@remindme@mstdn.so…

Sin embargo, si lo miras desde el tema inicial se transfoma en un eterno hilo poco comprensible y de poco encanto.

Por ello en parte la propuesta tanto de friendica como ademas de un sitio tipo foro, o las paginas html del projecto subdominio "media" o paginas wordpress.
Microbloging es tipo rollo de papel de cocina. Arancas una hoja, la usas y la tiras. Para el chiveo diaria es genial, sin embargo, para textos y contenidos elaborado bien "y con cariño" es un insulto.

Dusk OS - L'OS minimaliste qui survivra à l'apocalypse


Pendant que vous lisez ces lignes, en buvant votre café, une horde de développeurs ajoute chaque jour 14 millions de lignes de code supplémentaires à Windows 11, une centrale nucléaire explose à chaque fois que vous dites merci à ChatGPT et votre bon vieux smartphone consomme intégralement 4 Go de RAM dès que vous voulez afficher un emoji animé. C’est le monde dans lequel nous vivons.

Mais pendant ce temps, dans une réalité parallèle (ou peut-être un futur proche), Dusk OS nous permet de faire tourner un système complet avec compilateur C inclus en moins de 6000 lignes de code. Ce système d’exploitation 32-bit basé sur Forth est conçu avec un objectif précis : être maximalement utile lors d’un effondrement civilisationnel, quand on ne pourra plus fabriquer de nouveaux ordinateurs mais qu’il en restera encore beaucoup autour de nous.

C'est super-intéressant et ça suscite pas mal de réflexions :

  • Effectivement l'informatique s'est construite sous forme d'architecture en « pile », intéressante du point de vue conceptuel et modulaire, mais gourmande en ressources, difficile à optimiser, sans compter les problèmes de dépendance logicielle et de sécurité de la chaîne logistique.
  • Dans le contexte de l'effondrement, il faudrait s'assurer d'avoir encore les moyens matériels, humains, et les ressources (réseau électrique), de faire tourner des ordinateurs... C'est pas gagné. En tout cas un peu de doc papier pourrait être utile !
  • Toujours dans le contexte de l’effondrement, il serait crucial que ce système puisse proposer des outils didactiques pour que les connaissances indispensables continuent à être transmises et utilisées : je pense à des communs comme Wikipedia et OpenStreetMap par ex., mais aussi des connaissances pratiques sur l'agro-écologie, la fabrication d'objets rustiques, les connaissances élémentaires...
  • La mise en réseau (même très basique, comme le pair-à-pair) serait intéressante, pour partager les infos entre deux PC.
    Bref, à suivre !

Not sure what is the actual state of the art of the installer is. Last I "heard" and experienced is that it was broken and that the best way to install is thru the console commands detailed in the helpers page:

And yes, it's recommendable to use the git install form, that way you will be able to easily update the installation.

Marcos Is Delusional In Plan To Declare The Philippines Insurgency-Free: NPA


Marcos is delusional when he and his fascist cohorts bragged their intention to declare the Philippines “insurgency-free” this year, peddling the fantasy that they will soon completely annihilate the New People’s Army and put an end to the Filipino people’s armed resistance.

Marcos and his officials in the NTF-ELCAC and National Security Council are fooling only themselves with their pronouncements in their so-called National Action Plan for Unity, Peace and Development, that the NPA has no more guerrilla front in any part of the country, except for one “weakened” in Bicol. These false claims are readily debunked by their own actions, as they continue to deploy scores of combat battalions against units of the NPA nationwide.

They talk of “peace and development” but bring only tyranny and destruction. There is no peace when armed soldiers lord over the civilian population in the guise of “community support.” There can be no peace when drunken soldiers recklessly fire their weapons during their nightly binges. It is a mockery of peace when soldiers murder civilians with impunity and fabricate stories that they were killed in armed encounter with the NPA that never happened.

They talk of peace but continue to imprison on false charges the peace consultants of the National Democratic Front of the Philippines (NDFP) and more than 800 other political prisoners. They talk of peace but only want the NPA to surrender its weapons and give up the people’s cause. What peace are they talking about when all they want is for the people to give up all they have to defend themselves with from the violent onslaught of the brutal state machinery? This is the fascist interpretation of peace, the peace of the graveyard, not the just and lasting peace that the Filipino people aspire for.

How can there be peace when they continue to refuse to acknowledge and address the problem of landlessness that lie at the root of the armed conflict? Contrary to the claims of the NTF-ELCAC, a few road and infrastructure projects will not bring development to peasant communities. They build roads without traffic, clinics without doctors, and schools without teachers, only to line up the pockets of military officers and contractors with kickbacks and bribes.

How can there be peace when the Marcos regime continues to follow the US counterinsurgency doctrine to suppress the Filipino people’s armed resistance, and use US-supplied bombs and weapons against the Filipino people. How can there be peace when Marcos allows the US military to build up its forces in the Philippines, position its missiles, stockpile its weapons, use the Philippines for conducting non-stop war exercises and as springboard for saber-rattling in South China Sea, and drag the country into war preparations and provocations against its imperialist rival China?

Marcos’ claims of development are all empty talk when landless tenants are made to surrender half their produce to the land owner in the form of rent, when farm-workers are paid measly wages enough only to feed their children with instant noodles, or when poor peasants do not have land to work on, and where the military overlords tell people they cannot expand their production, accusing them of contributing their produce to the NPA.

What development is the NTF-ELCAC talking about when the government itself acknowledged that over the past year, 1.1 million people lost their jobs, including more than 610,000 displaced in agriculture. In the countryside, these are the peasants being driven away by Marcos from their land to allow the entry of mining companies, plantations, energy and so-called eco-tourism projects. These are the palay farmers who are going bankrupt in the face of the deluge of imported rice ordered by Marcos. These too are the onion, garlic and vegetable farmers who are losing money in the face of unfair competition with commodities being imported by smugglers and big business cartels, in collusion with Marcos and his lieutenants.

Marcos is an expert at massaging and cherry-picking data and publicity gimmicks to conceal the failure of his regime to address the needs of the people. However, despite all their efforts to weave an illusion of development, Marcos and NTF-ELCAC could not hide the ever worsening conditions of the people in the face of widespread joblessness, economic dispossession, low wages and salaries, high prices, and lack of social services, while government and military officers wallow in bureaucratic corruption. Not even the NTF-ELCAC’s retinue of apologists, the traitors calling themselves “former rebels,” could hide these gross realities.

Through the NAP-UPD and the accompanying Memorandum Circular No. 83, Marcos scapegoats the mass organizations of workers and peasants, students associations, even electoral parties and pro-poor service agencies, for failure to end the revolutionary armed resistance of the people through its all-out war. The NAP-UPD’s reveals Marcos’ plan to further intensify political repression to silence all dissent and critics. Over the past year, officers and members of these groups have faced intense political and legal persecution, with the NTF-ELCAC, the AFP and police leveraging the Anti-Terrorism Law and Anti-Terrorist Financing Law against them.

By clamping down on these organizations who seek redress within the bounds of the reactionary constitution, and restrict the legal avenue of struggle, the Marcos regime, in fact, is inciting people to take the path of armed struggle and join or support the New People’s Army.

While the NPA has suffered losses stemming from both its internal weaknesses and the relentless US-supported war of terror waged by the Marcos regime, it is far from being defeated. The US-Marcos regime and its fascist agents are absolutely wrong to think that it can crush the NPA with their superior military force and relentless suppression of the people. Even now, the NPA is making steady headway in countering the enemy’s all-out war by overcoming its internal problems, returning to the basic principles of waging protracted people’s war, tirelessly conducting mass work, counter-encircling the enemy, and making it punch in the air.

The NPA continues to enjoy the deep and wide support of the masses. The peasant masses, from among whom came the majority of the NPA’s Red fighters, are undeterred and determined to persevere in taking part in the armed resistance to fight for their rights and interests, especially in the face of Marcos regime’s state terrorist attacks against their communities.

The Red fighters and commanders of the NPA have no intention of being defeated. Inspired and guided by the rectification movement, and by the memory of all their fallen heroes and martyrs, they are determined as ever to frustrate the all-out fascist war being waged by Marcos and his fascist minions. Under the absolute leadership of the Party, the NPA will continue to wage widespread and intensive guerrilla warfare and employ the tactics of concentration, dispersal and shifting and quick movement, with the aim of recovering, reactivating and rebuilding the mass base which the enemy so desperately wants to disorganize and destroy.

The NPA, along with all the Party’s revolutionary forces, must exert extra effort to work hand in hand with the peasant masses in the guerrilla zones and surrounding areas, to carry forward their antifeudal and antifascist mass struggles. Based on their capabilities, NPA units will continue to carry out tactical offensives to shatter the reign of terror, punish the fascist criminals and inspire the people to fight with all their strength.

The crisis of the semi-colonial and semi-feudal system, being exacerbated by the Marcos regime with his complete subservience to its imperialist masters, continue to generate conditions favorable for waging the armed revolution. The broad masses of the people are being subjected to ever worsening forms of political repression, oppression and exploitation. They have no other choice but to fight back primarily with arms, along with other forms of struggle, against the armed suppression of the Marcos regime.

The Party calls on all revolutionary mass activists, especially among workers and the youth, to join the New People’s Army and serve as Red fighters, and participate in waging agrarian revolution and armed struggle. All revolutionary forces must strengthen their resolve and fight even more militantly and courageously, to carry forward the struggle for national and social liberation.

Quotes

  • Otto Kuusinen: As long as the working class wages only an economic struggle, the bourgeoisie does not see in that any great danger for itself; but when the working class organises politically, i.e., creates a political party which expresses its will as a class, the bourgeoisie begins seriously to fear for its rule. That is why reaction deals its main blows against the political party of the working class. At the same time, trying to undermine the party from within, capitalist propaganda endeavours to persuade the workers that they can do without their own party. One of the manifestations of bourgeois influence on the working class is the anarchist and anarcho-syndicalist denial of the leading role of a political party.
  • Democritus: Not from fear but from a sense of duty refrain from your sins.
  • Democritus: Many who have not learned wisdom live wisely, and many who do the basest deeds can make most learned speeches.
  • Democritus: Fools learn wisdom through misfortune.
  • Democritus: Strength of body is nobility in beasts of burden, strength of character is nobility in men.
  • Democritus: Neither art nor wisdom may be attained without learning.
  • Democritus: It is better to correct your own faults than those of another.
  • Democritus: Good means not (merely) not to do wrong, but rather not to desire to do wrong.
  • Democritus: Fame and wealth without wisdom are unsafe possessions.
  • Muammar Gaddafi: We will not surrender. We will defeat them by any means. We are ready for the fight, whether it will be a short or a long one. We will be victorious in the end. This assault is by a bunch of fascists who will end up in the dustbin of history.
  • Democritus: By convention sweet is sweet, bitter is bitter, hot is hot, cold is cold, color is color; but in truth there are only atoms and the void.
  • Democritus: We know nothing accurately in reality, but (only) as it changes according to the bodily condition, and the constitution of those things that flow upon (the body) and impinge upon it.
  • Democritus: Medicine heals diseases of the body, wisdom frees the soul from passions.
  • Democritus: Immoderate desire is the mark of a child, not a man.
  • Democritus: Men have fashioned an image of Chance as an excuse for their own stupidity.
  • Democritus: In a shared fish, there are no bones.

  • Marjori Palmer: One of the most morale-damaging aspects of the inflation was the "sack of Germany" that occurred at the height of the (1923) inflation. Anyone who possessed dollars or sterling was king in Germany. A few American dollars would allow a man to live like a millionaire. Foreigners swarmed into the country, buying up family treasures, estates, jewelry and art works at unbelievable low prices.
  • Lionel Robbins: It was the most colossal thing of its kind in history: and next probably to the Great War itself, it must bear responsibility for many of the political and economic difficulties of our generation. It destroyed the wealth of the more solid elements of German society: and left behind a moral and economic disequilibrium, a breeding ground for the disasters which have followed. Hitler is the foster child of the inflation.
  • Lenin: There is no trace of utopianism in Marx, in the sense that he made up or invented a 'new' society. No, he studied the birth of the new society out of the old, and the forms of transition from the latter to the former, as a natural-historical process. He examined the actual experience of a proletarian mass movement and tried to draw practical lessons from it.
  • Che Guevara: Many will call me an adventurer - and that I am, only one of a different sort: one of those who risks his skin to prove his platitudes.
  • Democritus: The first principles of the universe are atoms and empty space; everything else is merely thought to exist.
  • Bertolt Brecht: Lenin is enshrined In the large heart of the working class.

[Solved] move files older than 30 days from one computer to another using rsync

I have a laptop and a phone in which termux is installed.
I want to move files from my phone to my computer using rsync if all files are older than 30 days. I think I should use find command with -exec rsync.

find . -mtime +30 -exec rsync something

but the problem is my phone's IP address is always changing so how do I transfer file?

solution

i wrote a script which move files and runs in my laptop

Taming the hydrogen hype - by David Roberts - Volts


#environment #energy #climate #H2

Hydrogen is a complete pipe dream.

If you were to replace just the 100 million tons of hydrogen used as a chemical feedstock around the world with green hydrogen, which is to say, we take renewables, we run it through an electrolyzer, we split water, we end up with pollution-free hydrogen. That would require the equivalent in renewable electricity of the entire US electric grid, which is to say everything, nuclear plants, coal, oil, plus all the renewables. It's funny because someone read a draft of that book, said, "No, you made a mistake, you must mean it's just the renewables on the US grid."

No, no, it's the whole grid. So, yes, and this is one of the points I make in the book: It would be a mammoth undertaking, I think we could agree, just to do that.
