Lmao the future sucks

I have been logged out of my toothbrush.

Comments

My electric razor wanted me to sync it with my phone, and I was like Fuck you you’re crazy and that’s why I’ve never been logged out of my razor.

I demand the dumbest appliances, household items, and personal grooming tools possible.

Who the fuck needs a password to brush their teeth.

I keep lobbying my wife to get rid of the Amazon spy robot and let's just install toggle switches everywhere.

(The spy robot predates my arrival in this place.)

I can control my refrigerator from my car...not that I would want to do.

On the bright side, I never have to pay for credit monitoring or identity protection thanks to the reliable deluge of data breaches from every app on my phone and electronic item in my house. 👍😁👍

I'm wondering how the microplastics that are slowly collecting in our BRAINS will be deconstructing society... all living creatures...

Hell, there now forever chemicals in our BEER!

"Brushing experience" Calm down oral B, it ain't that big a deal.

service-worker.bsky.social•2 days ago

This seems like a “the escalator can never be broken” scenario to me. Just brush your teeth & go about your day. We don’t need to bring electricity & WiFi into this activity

dougmasson.bsky.social•2 days ago

"Your Oral B brushing experience" illustrates the concept of "late stage capitalism" pretty well, I think.

Coincidentally I was *just* reading this

there's also 'alternative uses' for electric toothbrushes where someone might construe something from seeing the brush used often at 2 or 3am lol

jymdyer.bsky.social•2 days ago

I have been informed by a reliable source that they're too weak for such uses.

fateswarning86.bsky.social•2 days ago

lol it likely depends on the brand i'm sure

jymdyer.bsky.social•2 days ago

My reliable source is a Hitachi loyalist.

If I have to register an account for a toothbrush, I'm not going to buy it 😂

petsi.bsky.social•2 days ago

😂🤣

Wait until the smart toilet comes out making you listen to ads while you poop if you don’t pay the monthly premium no ads rate.

alexandrainen.bsky.social•2 days ago

Oh my god! 🙈😂

vitc2050.bsky.social•2 days ago

It’s a matter of time before you pay a subscription to brush

derek.bsky.social•2 days ago

This would make my wife lose her mind.

She hates this shit. Apps for everything, hundreds of accounts / logins.

Every day, she loses it when something like this happens.

iopjanis.bsky.social•2 days ago

I’ve lost connection to my FeatherSnap bird camera. It just won’t connect anymore… life sucks😜

Ugh. My CPAP app kicks me out all the time and I always forget my damn password. The worst.

cruiseshipdrummer.bsky.social•2 days ago

help I have too many login attempts for my floss

redheadfrommars.bsky.social•2 days ago

I am never ever buying this. Ugh

eugenehetzel.bsky.social•2 days ago

We are headed to an air subscription that Mel Brooks in Spaceballs would have thought was too far.

isaac32767.picknit.com•2 days ago

I can live without a cloud-connected toothbrush, but the web portal I use to access my CPAP data has been broken for 3 fucking days now.

ricosuavejd.bsky.social•2 days ago

If you have HomeAssistant installed, you can actually detect and register your neighbor's OralB's within range.

You can even mess with the routines. It's wild.

wanderingincode.bsky.social•2 days ago

I really love HA and it certainly allows me to choose products that don't need cloud. Just wish we had proper legislation to open up products and protect privacy across the board.

brooklynmarie.bsky.social•2 days ago

Really? I don't like my neighbors 🥰
