There have been numerous deaths at the hands of police that received national attention, and countless other that didn't. Every one was, at minimum, a tragedy; At the very least a tremendous shortcoming of modern policing. Others were straight up atrocities, all too common abuse, racism and cruelty masquerading as law enforcement.

But the ones with recordings always hit harder. It did with Eric Garner. It did with George Floyd. It absolutely did wity Tyre Nichols. Thats why efforts to stop or outlaw the filming of police is bullshit. Their actions either stand up to public scrutiny or they don't. These are murders and they shouldnt be able to hide by misleading reports or straight up lies.

As a layman who is not scientifically literate, I appreciate this simplified breakdown I could follow.

I hope I'm not just being foolish when I ask this, but: If the gains in efficiency, output and collection tech you mention are all technically possible, does that make the ultimate goal unlimited (or an arbitrarily high amount of) clean energy? A solution to our energy/climate crisis for good? Or is that just science fiction and excitement blurring my understanding? Is the real goal just another clean energy alternative? Something that could practically lower emissions as one part of a larger strategy?

We get it, people genuinely enjoying things shows a level of sincerity and vulnerability that makes you uncomfortable. Just pretend they're liking it "ironically".
