We Finally Have Proof That the Internet Is Worse::High-profile lawsuits against Google and Amazon have revealed Silicon Valley’s vise grip on our lives.
I have a microwave/air fryer/convection combo that I can’t use unless I install a phone app. It came with the apartment. It has only a few “buttons” on its face. The UI is almost completely non-intuitive, but the app makes it easy. Every time I bake bread I fight the urge to blow my brains out as I navigate to the app. I have become that which I mocked.
Use an old phone with no user accounts in it.
God, what garbage.
I can’t believe this is true. Show pictures and link to the vendor. I wanna see this for myself.
So I’ve just had a look out of curiosity and every single result for smart microwave (there’s not that many) has buttons on its face as well.
I yearn for the days when my toaster just made toast.
There’s a line that needs to be drawn between things that benefit from IoT and things that should’ve remained dumb
Do you have a smart toaster? What’s it do, write tweets on the toast?
