Listen, I get it—tech is everywhere, even in appliances we never thought would need it. But connecting my dishwasher to the cloud? That’s just going too far.
Jeff Geerling nailed it in his recent rant about how lazy home appliance companies are forcing us into the digital age when all we want is to clean our plates without a side of privacy invasion. It’s like they’re saying, “Your dirty dishes? We’ll handle that—for a fee, of course!”
And let’s talk about this ominous “Screens Everywhere” trend. Companies like Samsung and LG are trampling over our beloved physical buttons, transforming our appliances into potential gateways for ads, subscriptions, and who knows what else. I mean, will I have to pay a monthly fee just to wash a pot? Couldn’t they at least throw in a free streaming service for my troubles?
We’re heading toward a future where repairs cost an arm and a leg, and your dishwasher willy-nilly decides when it feels like working based on some algorithm. What a time to be alive!
So, no, thank you! If my dishwasher starts trying to sell me dish detergent or requires an app to operate, it’s getting a one-way ticket to the curb. Let’s keep our appliances simple and our lives uncomplicated.
Are you with me in this anti-cloud appliance revolution?
