Extra, expensive layer of maintenance. This isn't just your average 5V1A AA battery; even the batteryless thing needs 100Wh.
What do you mean refried? What about MIT?
They’re probably upset that MIT refused to let someone attend the graduation because of their pro-Palestinian views, and therefore they make dumb statements about MIT’s education and contributions.
saying someone's statement is dumb is very provocative
Then don't be dumb.
I assume you stand with Israel?
MIT is in the business of marketing MIT, and they are damn good at it. And I do think the people doing this work should be highlighted. However, it ends up being almost exclusively hype.
Its a trope specifically related to MIT.
Every university markets itself including the research university. Can't we just accept that battery-free desalination is really cool and efficient? The fact that they were research students of MIT had not registered any land in my mind until you pointed it out.
I understand your motivation and desire to not let the morons go un-opposed, I appreciate what you've done, but it's time to leave the troll in it's cave. The ogre will not turn to stone if it feels the touch of sun unfortunately. Shine your brightness in places it'll be appreciated.
I get that you simply don't understand whats being said. You'll figure it out eventually.
