Imagine walking into your living room and your TV automatically telling you the weather and your calendar for the day. If this is a future you can imagine, you’ll be pleased to hear that Google is working on a new mode for Google TV that does just that.
I’d prefer to imagine a world in which a multi-billion dollar corporation isn’t tracking my every step to sell me more shit, and yet here we are…
I remember when tech companies used to do cool things just because it was cool and people were interested in the cool things, and they were making improvements and all sorts of fun stuff.
Now it’s all just done for… idk
There was a sweet moment in the mid 00s to early teens where cool stuff was being made to push the envelope. Yeah they wanted to sell you stuff, but they did so under the guise that it would be something to look forward to instead of sucking every penny from your dry husk
I can do this already, all locally, with home assistant. Thanks anyway.
I did it all with a Pi powered magicmirror2 which I prefer since it’s my bathroom mirror anyway.
Right, I’m ok with the TV (or local assistant) knowing I’m in the room. But why does personal convenience have to become the panopticon, tech bros?
Drink Verification Can.
Radar IS spying though
No it will fucking not dumpster
