A lot of the devices we use in the kitchen (Thermomix, microwaves, dishwashers, coffeemakers etc) use complete operating systems and embedded computers nowadays, often with internet connectivity for who knows what. So. Will we soon see mandated fingerprint readers for age verification or will a simple switch with "18+" be sufficient to continue to cook and clean? ;)

@jwildeboer Rather than base it on age, which is a completely arbitrary distinction, they should check a user's maturity instead. "How?" you might ask. Probably "AI."

While we're at it, we should probably require an extensive maturity, intelligence, morality, and emotional stability check for elected officials, particularly those with access to nuclear weapons.
