sometime who buys a toilet and then finds out afterwards that they were sold a toilet that only flushes with an app
This. SO many devices, especially networking stuff. It seems like they should just do their thing after plugging in and setting a few settings. "It's so EZ!" says the box.
Nope, "scan this code to get this app, make an account, agree to all the things, register for spam..."
It's disgusting.
What do house guests do?
“Let me know when you’re done and I can flush the toilet though the app.”
Or
“Download this app to flush the toilet once at my house.”
I think it was voice activated.
The app was probably for additional stuff.
I would hope just motion activated. I really don't want to have to yell at my toilet either.
"Oh, SHIT!"
flush
Poker night: Read 'em and weep boys, straight flush!
From the other room: *flushing noises*
I hear this in the voice of Lindsay Lohan. Though I don't think there was a toilet flush at that point in that movie!
Totally forgot about that scene until you said something lmao.
Yeah. I'm absolutely opposed to unnecessarily "smart" devices.
I have a strong aversion to voice activated anything. Smartphones have had voice assistant's since forever but whenever I've tried it I just find it to be a clunky awkward imprecise user interface.
Why do something in a few clicks when 10 minutes of miscommunication will do?
In-house toilet facilities are more or less a solved problem. These idiots un-solved it.
the host just watches them through the built in camera and the house guest thinks it flushes automatically :)
"Ok, Richard, I'm done."
"Yeah, I got the notification actually. Heavy dinner last night?"
"What the actual fuck, Richard?"
