@privateger doesn't the flame damage the mug? wtf?
@wolf480pl @privateger I assumed a resistive electric stove

though that still probably isn't great for the mug
@privateger THERE IS NOTHING AVERAGE OR ENJOYING IN THIS, THESE "PEOPLE" ARE SCUM
@privateger It literally says on the box to heat water in a Kettle and pour it over the tea bag 😭
@privateger now I'm going to dissolve instant coffee in cold water just to spite you.
@privateger That was quite a rollercoaster ride!
@privateger Everything listed in that thread is still better than my "Smart" kettle that snitches on me that I drink tea in the middle of the night, to my parents.

@untsuki @privateger that shit’s downright dystopian

Can’t you hack it to stop doing that shit? Or at least rip the wifi antenas and power cord

@untsuki @privateger *ethernet cord, not power cord, ripping the power cord would get in the way of tea making 
@Reiddragon @privateger I can probably make it do software reset and presumably lose acess to my wi-fi (or create fake wifi network, connect, and then delete), but I don't have enough reason to justify that to parents except that I want to enjoy my night tea in peace and that don't I want data to be sent to manufacturer (which is not that much data anyway, it's a freaking teapod, and it's connected to my parent's email and phone app and not mine).

Also we will lose ability to boil it from Home Assistant widget (which they use to check temperature that was at night somehow, IDK if it logs or they just happened to be awake too). That is useful since kettle's hardware buttons are prone to breaking from heat and we already used it for that reason, until we brought it to shop to replace it by warranty.
@untsuki @privateger is it just me who is very freaked out by a teapot having an internet connection? Tbh that’s the moment I buy a dumb kettle
@Reiddragon @privateger At least it's super cheap, has temperature selection, and can work as normal dumb teapot unless someone connects it. But it's a step away fron causing me freak out, and some manufacturer will make that step before long.

If we had more money and place on kitchen, we could have bought dumb thermal teapot that is actually cool since it keeps water hot for a long time by itself, and also warms it when detects that it has gone cold. But for now, I microwave water from kettle if I need it at night.
@privateger ...do you have a thing that isn't a slideshow of perfectly good text posts stuffed into a video? I'm not dealing with that.
@frost @privateger It's voice-acted, worth it imo.

@Qazm @privateger Nah. If you want me to read a bunch of text, present it as /text/, don't show it for two seconds and then flash to something else.

There are things videos are good at. This is not one of them!

@frost @Qazm Then don't read it and just listen to it. There's also an alt text reply.

@privateger @Qazm Okay neat, I missed the alt text reply! That sounds actually usable.

On the video itself – if it's the same thing as the text, you could just... have the text!

@frost @privateger @Qazm

It's voice *acted,* not just read out. That's the point of the video instead of just a tumblr screenshot.

@privateger wth did i just watch?
@privateger Also, I realise I'm late to the party on this one, but it's not even 10 am, and this just made my day. Thanks XD
