Hmm that aquarium chiller solution is interesting to me. I’d like to wire it up to home assistant, so I could automate it. Wonder if there are any that I could control with an IR blaster?
Would miss out on some of the fun data you get from the complete solution though.
I also saw there was some firmware available for the complete solution, for local control. But unsure if I can realistically justify that large of a purchase while relying on a project that may lose support.
I’m aware of the bed jet, but it doesn’t seem as useful as it just pushes air, so if your room is already hot you are out of luck.
- a $2000 bed
- with a $19/month subscription
- which is a full linux computer
- full of security holes
- that allows the company to ssh into your bed
- that totally could give those guys access into your local network
- the CEO is flirting with DOGE and is offering them free beds
- they are tracking your sleep data and tweeting about it
WTF?
I want to move to a timeline where this is part of a bad movie plot, not part of the news.
I wasn’t going to read the article until I read your comment. Wtf!
Some idiot bought a $2000 bed. IoT or not, it’s a nice bonus.
Offering quasi-government officials free beds to hack them is very cyberpunk
Peralez vibes intensify
On an unrelated note, that thumbnail image looks fairly convincingly like pixel art until you zoom into it. Conversely, the pixel art people are making with comfyUI and LORAs (locally) is insane. I messed around with it and you can generate 2d and 3d game assets of anything you can think of.
That is really fuckin cool
I want off this planet.
Do people still think Bezos is running Amazon? I’m sure he still has some influence but I actually think Amazon actually got even worse since he stepped down from CEO.
I was intrigued by those things a while ago but the subscription + cloud BS was a no-go for me. That aquarium chiller is a cool idea, but not many of those covers on ebay.
Sounds like an opportunity for someone to crowdfund a privacy respecting cover+chiller package.
