It's no longer a function of our government to deal with anything concerning us. That is our duty, as David Cameron's "Big Society" announcement made clear. Now government just warns and advises us of impending problems, then leaves us to deal with them voluntarily. So rather than the NHS...

Or perhaps because the current level of consumption is so low. Any substantial increase in fuel cell vehicles would reduce that several hundred years of supply to tens of years in no time at all. So the hydrogen can stay where it is until the oil is in far more short supply, pushing the...

Indeed, that is where FSD comes into its own as a very real advantage. One of my best customers and also a very good friend lost his life that way when still a young man. One of his successful business interests was connected with our North Sea oil industry, so he had occasional runs to the...

Agreed, but no use on my car when exiting my road with its lack of any sightline when a bus is on the stand. Firstly the other car would have to have the system to prevent it hitting me emerging blind. Secondly because I have to have mine switched off in my estate and area circumstances, so...

Simple task. You mentioned that you spend a lot of time on motorways, again the easiest environments for FSD, so clearly even level 3 FSD would be useful for you. The last time I was on a motorway was September 2019. For me FSD would be totally useless due to my range of driving activities...

I agree with that much, no problem at all. But I'm speaking of true full self drive in and around this country's roads. Doing all the peculiar things we odd people do with our cars. Then the alternative realities of claimed FSD will emerge and we'll often still be taking over the driving to...

I see more than just comprehension, I think there is algorithm conflict and this may also be behind dropping Lidar and Radar, to simplify the range of inputs. That is on the right lines, but fallible humans are so much better at doing this. They are so poor at coping with complexity of...

It clearly is, and in two other ways, as well as speed variation. The rather excessive distances from the car in front is controlling it's spacing. It also appears to be adjusting its side space from other cars alongside, rather like a fish in a shoal. This is seen in two ways, the...

Having fond memories of them during my eight years in Bournemouth I fully agree, but of course they and we generally have unwisely got rid of them while many other countries still keep them. But they do have their problems, mainly with sharp turns derailing their booms, a regular occurrence in...

Definitely much improved in some areas but still falling well short in others. One step backwards for each one forwards is a clear indication of not coping with the scale of the complexities. Nothing I've seen persuades me from the view that we will never have full self driving in private...

No we haven't yet for buses, even when stuffed full of cells in every space to a potentially dangerous degree, like the staircase full of them. The battery electric buses are ok for most routes, but we are using the hydrogen fuel cells for the longer routes. And our London bus hydrogen is a...

True, but once again, this is not all about climate change. Air pollution is a much bigger and more immediate issue in our cities and very large towns, so an energy cost to get rid of diesel becomes acceptable meanwhile, until we find better ways. .

Yes he's completely the opposite, but once again a misreading of the true Russian position. They really have swallowed the "Nazis in Ukraine" line more completely than I could ever have imagined could happen. I watched Sean Langan's documentary, "Ukraine War, the other side" in which he had...

It's a mixed position here, still expanding but three sites previously closed being too small to upgrade: https://www.fleetnews.co.uk/news/latest-news/2022/10/17/uk-loses-three-hydrogen-fuel-stations-this-year The fact of our increasing numbers of hydrogen fuel cell buses probably makes our...

When I read your above post I was certain that you have completely misread the Russia / Putin position. Latvia borders Russia and has between a quarter and a third Russian Population so they know a lot more than most of the Russian position. I've just been listening to Krisjanis Karins who...

It's all true, undermining and causing strife in other countries is the CIA's most important function on behalf of the US government. We are involved too through the BBC. This link below will tell you a lot about that...

As I've long maintained, there will be no peace in this post WW2 world until the USA is isolated. .

Shows how brilliant their Japanese battery design is. They can't catch fire until they are in recycling and no longer Nissan Leaf batteries. .

He's got what he really wanted and that I call a win. Here's my predictions starting even days before the war began, proving absolutely right: Prediction post with map and photo of bridge he would use to feed in forces to attack from Crimea, posted here two days before the invasion. Admit...

I fully agree. I wasn't criticising, just commenting on their reality of being heavily outnumbered and under resourced. I just wish Zelensky could realise and accept that Russia is just on a pride trip with the rest of Donetz in Donbass they haven't seized yet. It's long been little more...
