FlushMe app - Bizarro

[sgforce@lemmy.ca]

Only for a year or so. Then you'll need premium+ to skip ads. The free tier is also downgraded to 1 flush per day.

I have the own where I give the app camera access and take a picture of my poop and it calculates the proper flush volume.

I now only buy offline or local-only software and products.

An offline flushing app is not much better in this case.

[henfredemars@infosec.pub]

Guess I'm not flushing. Enjoy.

An app full of spyware and you still need to allow it to access your gallery, precise location, contacts, microphone,camera

Worse: the company decides to cancel the service and no longer support these toilets. You have to purchase a new toilet to continue service.

[bobs_monkey@lemm.ee]

In your own home? Seems like it's only you that reeks the benefits (pun intended)

[radix@lemmy.world]

But the existing mounting hardware is proprietary, so in addition to a new toilet, you also need to replace half your plumbing.

[ch00f@lemmy.world]

And when the company stops wanting to pay the webservice hosting costs, you have to pay the plumber to come back and throw your useless toilet in the trash.

Worked for a company that made a kitchen appliance that had zero buttons. Needed an app. If you unplugged it without shutting it down in the app, it'd send you an alert notification. The app took at least three taps to fucking turn it off.

And the company was paying something like $1MM/yr to AWS to keep this thing running.

More pixels

And when the company starts struggling, they'll start charging or requiring you to watch an ad to flush.

Before they go out of business and brick your toilet.

[godnroc@lemmy.world]

Fun tip, you can dump a bucket of water to flush the toilet. Useful if you're ever working on your water supply after taco night.

Ok but like today I literally discovered someone HACKED THEIR TOOTHBRUSH TO BE A RICKROLL
Technology has gone too far.

[greenknight23@lemmy.world]

you jest but I recently bought a stove that breaks some UX functions unless you use their fucking app.

I refuse to. fuck em. it does 100% of what I need but that extra 15% would have made it the best ever.

now it gets 2 stars and a bad review for paywalled features.

[greenknight23@lemmy.world]

I have made the shit demons mad, what the fuck do I do now?!

[ourkaos@lemmy.today]

Full-dive VR is the only difference between this reality & a cyberpunk dystopia.

[pastermil@sh.itjust.works]

How sophisticated can a stove be it needs an app?

Also, how did you not catch that before buying?

[steamymoomilk@sh.itjust.works]

You gotta give it biometrics. For your fingerprint, WHAT IF SOMBODY BROKE INTO YOUR HOUSE AND SHAT ON YOUR TOILET!!!
see there keeping you safe from those shitty bastards!!
So just uhh give us all permissions

No the Flushmate Throne Pro would definitely not have an S bend, it would have a proprietary in-house designed mascerator pump.
