    Here’s the thing about that though. The one thing the Magic Mouse does really well, is smooth scrolling. Apple makes it so no other mouse can do that since they control the software. So despite all the other issues it has, if you want their buttery smooth scrolling you have to use the Magic Mouse. And Apple shills will refuse to go without it, thus Apple makes bank off their otherwise shitty mouse.

    The only solution to this is a sea change where people stop buying apple products purely out of brand loyalty, which will probably never happen because they do make enough genuinely good products to keep people from losing faith, like the M1/2/3 laptops.

    For the conversion of Carbon Dioxide into Oxygen? That was the main point of these, the algae does that and is actually even more efficient at it than a tree. Trees do have other benefits hence why they shouldn’t be replaced, but these should go in places where trees can’t.

    To echo what some other people have said, these algae tanks absolutely should not be used instead of trees. If I see a tree get chopped down and replaced with one of these, I’ll be sad and angry. However, these can go in places where trees can’t go, like rooftops. And you don’t have to either wait for a tree to grow for a decade or take a tree from somewhere else to install one. It also serves as both a seating area and can mount a solar panel on top. These and trees both have their place and should both continue to be used.
