The goron bomb jumps alone make MM's physics set up for abusable. We were skipping Epona and half of Ikana Fortress before anyone even got close to skipping the Gerudo Gates.

Hydrogen is very flammable, but you still have to light a match.
Also, acids and bases don't split water.
You forget that a simple pen light contains enough energy to explode a balloon. I wasn't expecting him to seriously think that hydrogen gas would blow up in the atmosphere. Man, do I seriously have to start explaining when I'm joking and when I'm not?
Also, acids and bases, by their nature, dissociate in solution when mixed.

No, not impossible. However, it is very very costly to do so right now, and this whole battery operation is a very very insanely tiny step in that direction.
If we could get two mountains, one of copper and one of zinc, and run a saline river between them, then connect two wires from both mountains in to a freshwater, filtered ocean... you might be able to run a moped for a few feet.

Sweet sassy molassy, you've got some guff kiddo!
Claiming that redox reactions of water is the equivalent of finding harvestable hydrogen is like claiming that running current through a light bulb is like making tiny stars. Just because some guy on youtube says that he is extracting 'hydrogen fuel' from water does not mean that the solution to all of our dependencies (read: oil, what the duder was so surreptitiously getting at) will vanish.
What you consider to be a 'hydrogen engine' is not a literal hydrogen engine. It uses the very minute combustion power of H2 reacting with atmosphere at an accelerated rate to help the engine perform a tiny bit more efficiently than it normally would, at the cost of electrical input. What we consider hybrid cars nowadays are not driven by hydrogen combustion, but electrical batteries that are very weak, but ecologically safe.
RAWR im done with this now.

Woah there big boy, way to not listen to what I wrote earlier. Haven't you seen Chain Reaction with Keanu Reeves and Morgan Freeman? Why do you think we don't have hydrogen engines yet?
e: That guy is such a mongoloid, I don't even know where to begin.

Do you think that you can split up peanut butter from jelly AFTER the sandwhich is made? Sure, one can postulate that by peeling apart the sandwich at just the right angle, you'll minimize the amount of peanut butter on jelly action, but you'll never be able to fully separate the two and keep them apart. Much like water or a family of alcoholics, a PBnJ sanwich will EXPLODE if you make a conscious effort to split it up.

Yes, binary can denote any positive integer. The 'reasoning' you seek is more or less a conversion function, which isn't really applicable to high digits without the help of a computer.

To say that you're splitting the water molecule is a misnomer, because the reaction is taking place in an excess environment of H2O as is.
I don't want to get in to the details of this, but basically, 'splitting' water has yet to be perfected, since it requires massive amounts of energy to separate H2 from O2 and keep them from re-interacting with eachother. As soon as you literally separate H2 from water, it will either reform water or explode. Only if you superheat H2 in a <10torr vaccuum will you maybe get actual splitting.

1) I probably shouldn't run 110 volts through 22 gague wire
2) AC cant do electrolysis, can it?
1) Doesn't matter: the amount of energy it takes to keep O2 and H2 from reacting with eachother is so great that you won't be able to do it with any household version of electricity.
2) Electrolysis is not the word you are looking for. The only way that you are going to effectively split H20 is with a strong acid/base, the right apparatus to ensure that the two molecules won't remix, and a lot of heat.

Can someone explain to me why Mockball is considered a 'great glitch'? It's not that entertaining or useful, and I can't really understand why it's being compared to things like Blue Suit or the Murder Beam.

Can you use Fire Arrows/Goron Spike/any magical attacks without a magic meter?
I highly doubt you're going to find a way to get out of Deku Form in the first cycle. Granted, there may be a way, but I really seriously doubt it.
Also, no, you can't convert savestates.

Don't worry about it: idiots be avast on the high seas of the internet.
Can anyone tell me how the Deku story skip works? Won't the tree not open up without hearing the story?

Currently, there are some talks about leaving Kokiri Forest early. While the only proof of this working uses the levitation glitch, it's worth showing some interest in. Don't get your hopes up, though.
I don't really see why you would skip doing the Deku Tree first, though. You don't need anything from outside of the forest to beat it optimally.
