FlushMe app - Bizarro

Maybe that’s why it was in the trash..

Yup, that's what it's called

I have a stove with optional app support, but I tolerate it because the app doesn't add anything. The local controls can do everything. If you use the app, you have to hit a button on the local controls anyway to confirm you are physically there anyway before it listens to the app for most things.

The only thing that was somewhat convenient was phone notification when timed cooking was done, because the stoves own chime wasn't that loud. However ultimately I stopped bothering and just set a phone timer when I set cook timer, because keeping the oven on the network was an active maintenance activity that wasn't worth it.

Once that frustrates me greatly is eight sleep. My wife had been trying various products and unfortunately eight sleep was the best executed one. But they are openly hostile to local controls.

From the time they have released people have been complaining over and over about zero local controls, suggesting buttons on the base, a remote, or even local wifi or Bluetooth controls and their people keep coming online and patronizing by claiming their engineers are working on it, but it's hard. Truth is they are passing a fucking subscription plan to use your damn bed.

Finally they came out with their local control "solution". No, buttons should not be on the base, that would be inconvenient. No, a remote control would be too easy to lose. So they implemented super dodgy earbud type controls, two taps for a tick colder, three taps for a tick warmer. Ok, janky as hell, but finally, local controls. So you get things going and do the tap and long buzz meaning "reject" the request. Turns out the taps will only process if the cloud server says it's ok, and the bed will usually be "off" and not receptive to taps unless you turn it on via Internet app or you have an Internet arranged schedule that has it on at the time you want to adjust it.

It's a shame since they otherwise had fantastic execution, but their monetization through an app strategy is maddening. So my home has one cloud based device and it pisses me off.

Who wants to bet that one day this will be real? If not already.

I mean I prefer the motion sensor things when I'm public, but I can't see how it could ever be smart to get rid of the button. I would be fine with having a motion sensor at home.

Bull****

My grandma has a mesh wifi thing provided by her ISP and I couldn't find a web interface on it either. I wonder if that's why.

[phoenicianpirate@lemm.ee]

The motion sensor on public toilets is fine... and yes, that little backup button is also critical. Getting rid of the button would be beyond stupid... this is because sometimes the motion sensor malfunctions.

As for the stuff at home I am content with the 100% mechanical flush mechanism that I have. Sure it means I need to clean the handle every once in a while, but that is no great inconvenience.

Now I want to take an eight sleep apart and see if I can lobotomized it.....

[rickyrigatoni@lemm.ee]

Big whoop I brick my toilet at least once a day

[1985mustangcobra@lemmy.ca]

if this happened i would shit in a bucket.

[rai@lemmy.dbzer0.com]

I’ve never heard of eight sleep and I went to their web site, and immediately the site is super fucking annoying

What a world when you have to mod chip your bed.
