The only thing smart I want is a faucet that activates with button OR the knee / foot sensor, and gives water always with a precise programmed temperature and flow.

That and a temperature and timer controlled frying pan.

Well an incinerating toilet that just dries burns my shit using a 340W solar panel would be cool too.

I think that any electromechanical system that does not allow a mechanical override or at least a redundancy are doomed to fail. I don't know why these IOT entrepreneurs don't take in account that software and electronics are faulty systems, ignoring decades of experience in the subject.

Nah I'm an innovator! I'll just innovate a better chip that'll never fail and software that has no bugs!

Proceeds to put Linux on a common SoC and load it with shoddy software from a low paid contractor.
