there are so many layers to this roomba story but honestly they have been the worst robot vacuums out there for years now. absolutely cleaned up by the competition while they did nothing.
roomba is dead the outcomes here feel quite bad. either: 1) millions of robot vacuums are about to be paperweights 2) new owner keeps 'em working but turns them into tiny camera-enabled spies i'd be taking them offline until we know, personally https://t.co/zCpXMnP6iL

Beds were not meant to require internet connection. During the AWS US-EAST outage on October 20th, people flooded the internet complaining about their smart beds from EightSleep Because of the AWS outage, the smart beds were unable to recline or change positions. Additionally,

hahahaha the bed sends 16gb of data a month oh god
@m_franceschetti Is 16+gb/mo a normal amount of telemetry? Can you not do any local compute of “get hot” or “get cold” with a multi core processor and multiple gigabytes of memory? Can’t just repeat the previous nights settings? It’s bad enough that you slapped a $200/yr subscription on things,

I want to specially thank the @vercel team for working around the clock to keep customers safe and available. In fact, I was sleeping, it was 2am~ ish, and I was alerted about this issue because my internet mattress (which I love, shoutout to @eightsleep) was warm 😅, which led

holy shit. i don’t think a smart thing has ever gone offline then back online again like this.
Pebble is officially back on iOS and Android! Download it now, works with all old and new Pebbles. Incredible that everything's still working just as well as before. Can you say that about any other tech product you bought 13 years ago?? https://t.co/6QwIMKkRDg
