Wow! It’s almost as though random household appliances shouldn’t be connected to the internet

A connected coffee pot has a lure to it. You preload it. Sleep. Wake up. As you’re browsing Lemmy in bed, you tap your phone to start the morning coffee. The aroma reaches you in bed, letting you know hot fresh coffee is waiting for you, making it easier to get out of bed.
It’s not enough of a temptation for me to go buy a connected drip coffee pot, but I’m betting that’s why people do it.

Shelly smart outlet + homeassistant + dumb coffee maker = genius coffee maker.
