It seems like only stupid people buy this shit thinking they are saving money.

“It pays for itself after 3,480 slices of toast!”

Breaks or becomes unsupported after your 100th slice

Heating elements empty. Please buy refill heat. (Only original heat accepted, third party heat will break some of the functionality.)

“Jam empty, refill.”

“I just want to toast.”

“JAM EMPTY!”

Your card on file for your HP toaster has expired. Please update payment information to renew your HP toast subscription.

You havent used your toaster for too long. The heat is now dried out and the toaster must be sent in for service.

And instead of paying 20 bucks for a toaster, these smart toaster allow you to spend several hundred on it instead! I just looked it up, and this isn't an exaggeration. The prices i saw ranged from about 200 - 500 dollars

You gotta be pretty stupid to buy an internet connected toaster.

If I found the right one, it's this...

$400 fucking dollars for a toaster??? No... Just... No. Fuck right off. I hate this timeline so much. Marty Mcfly needs to go unfuck whatever it is he fucked up, because if I see his ass and he hasn't, I'm kicking him in the balls so hard his kids feel it in their timeline.

This is just the beginning with toaster tech. Just wait for them to stop working with Unauthorized Bread.

If you were dumb enough to buy a toaster with a touch screen then I refuse to feel any level sympathy, you’re an idiot and you deserve to suffer.

I'd rather take an electrical cable off a fan, strip the insulation and very carefully plug it in and lay some bread on the exposed copper than get a "smart" toaster.

rob_t_firefly@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 63d

I wonder if there's a smart setting marked "bathtub."

ShaggySnacks@lemmy.myserv.one · 7 pts · 63d

The only smart toaster that I want.

Lightsong@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 63d

Too many people trying to reinvent the wheel by incorporating smart technology into everything. If it work, don't change it.

cattywampas@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 64d

So just don't buy it.

CommissarVulpin@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 63d

I bought that toaster after watching his video. Works great, makes toast fast.

I have a washing machine that doesn't make a loud noise when it is finished. I think it wants to text me.
