"Window units, mini-splits, etc do not draw air from outside the dwelling. All of these systems remove heat from the interior air and transfer it to the external air (or reverse, to heat the home), which is why this type of setup is broadly called a "heat pump."I suspect this Xiaomi product is a standard mini-split system that is just highlighting the venting configuration."
"This is very similar to the shower treatments I have encountered since moving to the UK, which are utterly useless. They do almost nothing to prevent water splashing everything around the tub. They also fail completely at another critical function of shower curtains/doors, which is to keep the nice warm steamy air localized."
"I wonder how that 125mph claim was tested. Would the magnets really stay safely attached if you had a sheet of plywood mounted to the racks, or a surf board?"
"Yes, a relationship with this furniture would be a challenging one.Joking aside, a piece of furniture that requires time/energy/effort from the end user to assembly could create a more lasting connection, especially if that input effort is satisfying.Certainly many issues with the presented idea but it could lead to something better."
"I suspect the keel height is designed to provide rigidity in the long direction of the pack. Bending in that direction could lead to the cans falling out of their spots"
"While a quick release is obviously useful, I am a bit skeptical of the functionality of this one. It seems that it is released simply by squeezing the tweezers, something which could happen quite easily in many instances when you would prefer that it didn't (in your pocket, hanging on a key ring, while you're using the tweezer section as the handle of the knife, etc).Also, reattaching the ring clip seems like it would take a fair bit of concentration as there don't seem to be any features to help guide it into place. They are trying to use a simple part cut from flat stock, but maybe a U shaped bent part would help guide the re-attachment action.Otherwise, I do like the concept. The tweezers in my little multi-tool are probably the most utilized aspect."
"The amount of marketing BS in this is staggering. I would guess the patterns in the water will be highly dependent on the size and shape of the water vessel in relation to the frequency. I was hoping that this would be an actually interesting sound design for an EV because I think it is a space that is very under developed at this point, but I was hard pressed to pick out the sound from the rest of the video. Perhaps only the owners will have the privilege of hearing it in full."
"I wondered if the shape may have been based on a tap handle, but a quick search didn't suggest that this is a characteristic Miller Lite handle shape. Perhaps this was an existing bottle that was "close enough" to a tap handle look."
