the hazards of living in the burbclaves

[–] [email protected] 12 points 16 hours ago (2 children)

I don't understand how we've become so dumb that we simply can't turn a knob for gas and strike a match for a flame. Or, well atleast dumb enough to accept these kinds of shitty products on the "free market." I understand having convenience in your life, but at the cost of this? AND a higher price all for some "super smoke" and "timer" option.

Is this the technofeudalist dream? If the next big thing in smart tech is to add ai to grills to "get the perfect sear" or whatever, just kill me.

Convenience. You can start it and keep an eye on it without even having to go out to the grill.

PLEASE tell me you sent this message via smoke signals.

Why does a grill need a screen and buttons? Maybe I'm living in the stone age, but what I call grilling involves putting charcoal to a flame.

When you want to intergrate your smoker into homeassitant so you can adjust it from the office.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

It's a smoker, with a port for a temp probe in the meat.

When you smoke something for 10-12 hours it's nice to get temp readings from wherever. It might also have automatic control for temperature management.

Why that needs to be connected to the internet is an entirely different matter though.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

So you can get updates while you are at work.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 hours ago

That's a pretty basic program with simple software needs.

If the programming is such shit there is a chance they need connectivity to update it or patch the code once it's gone into production, it might be best to look into another product.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 17 hours ago

It’s a smoker add on. I’d assume so you can adjust the temperature without actually opening it.

poor baby. who grills out on thanksgiving? also my charcoal grill never does this

[–] [email protected] 3 points 17 hours ago

It's very possible, dare I say preferred, to have a traditional Thanksgiving spread getting made in the kitchen while someone grills up some veggies.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 19 hours ago

My dad's gas grill doesn't do this either. Sometimes the boomer inability to understand technology is a blessing. Now if only he'd stop downloading sketchy slots games and getting viruses...

[–] [email protected] 2 points 20 hours ago

Sounds like the start of Cory Doctorow's book Radicalized.

Looks like it is a crysis already.
