Companies are readying hardware but differ dramatically in how they're testing it.

    No they aren’t, and they never will be (save for maybe a few small private one-offs). Certainly never for anything commercial.

      While I certainly agree with the first part of your comment, what makes you sure they’ll never be commercially viable? The energy density and application of liquid hydrogen is getting pretty good these days.

        Here is an alternative Piped link(s): https://piped.video/watch?v=4x0fPZrPV3M

        Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

        I’m open-source, check me out at GitHub.
