Yes, but the comment you had replied to was talking about a smart fridge, so when you said the thing about being able to turn "it" off, it sounded like you meant the fridge.
I see you replied to your comment saying you meant stove specifically.
You can edit comments, btw, if you're on reddit's official app, click the 3 dots under your comment and it brings up options to choose from, one is to edit the comment. If you're on reddit is fun, click your comment, and it makes the up/downvote buttons and 3 dots pop up, hit those three dots, and again, a box opens with choices, and one is, of course, edit.

Wrong, there is plenty of parody songs around my hump alone, this song has been the butt of jokes for a long time.

Wile the commercial, is a direct advertisement to sell a product.
Very different.

> no insurance company would possibly be willing to take the risk on a driver who buys an offensive vehicle for common use.
Much of this tech is in cars already, such as in South Africa, and it helps reduce the cost of your insurance policy.

Or Glow! They canceled that one partway through filming the final season. Such a crock.

It's been a big craze in the kids toy market for the past couple years. Poop sells I guess.
Edit: Too early for correct words.

If the toy company is a commercial operation, then it probably isn't (and shouldn't be) covered by parody "fair use". They're using someone else's intellectual property to make a profit, so they should pay to use it. The judgement, whatever it is, wouldn't be setting a precedent, each case should be judged on its own merits.

HBO Max has been excellent, but it was just bought by Warner/Discovery who promptly started axing things including the previously acclaimed West World as it head into its final season and some other things. West World was even removed from platform and will be exclusive to some ad supported other service if I recall correctly

We shouldn't have to but it's simple enough to just not connect the TV to your internet connection. And now it's just a "dumb" TV.

The idea of the smart home was strong about a decade ago. It reminded me of those old films from the 50s about "the home of tomorrow". Practicality goes out the window for mild conveniences. Then it became obvious that it could lead to bigger problems when it came out that these devices lacked any kind of cyber security. And last thing anyone wants is to get hacked through their coffee maker.

Im a non concert-goer too but thats because I witnessed all my friends in college get scammed time and again trying to purchase tickets to their favorite bands. My young daughter just learned the hardway that she'll probably never see a Taylor Swift concert in her lifetime.

It’s because they haven’t made any money off their content. Hundreds of millions of dollars in debt. Only thing making money is their stock, by people thinking they’re (Netflix) about to make a load of money. It’s a pyramid scheme.

No. This is the comment I replied to.
“I don't have any smart appliances...but if I did, I wouldn't connect them either. I'm smart enough to operate appliances manually.”
You all think I replied to this one.
“I remember reading a story on legal advice who bought a "smart fridge" that had a screen on the fridge doors.
But the screen kept displaying all these unwanted pop-up ads anytime he tried to get his fridge to do fridge stuff.
Why does a smart fridge need to exist? Why does a fridge need a screen/monitor or to connect to the internet?
All I need is a basic fridge that keeps my food cold.”
Congrats all for the unnecessary downvotes. Follow the thread next time.
