like a lot of the smart stuff is obviously horrible for IT security but imagine if you can get assassinated by getting drunk, geting in your bed and then it just folds and sous vides your ass to death
Remember, if your bed remains upright for more than 4 hours, contact your sleep doctor.
“Eight Sleep confirmed there’s no offline mode yet, but they’re working on it.”
first off, the idea of anything on a bed wanting internet access, but making it a requirement for all operations with no alternative means the project managers for this “smart” bed should be bundled together and tossed into the ocean.
my bed is connected to and controlled by web services because i am a genius sleepmaxxer.
I also saw a post that showed that these things send about 20 GIGABYTES of telemetry every month. Absolute clown shit.
edit: Found a source! This person actually had 30 GB/month.
Crashloop logs amount of telemetry
gigabytes? what. the. fuck.
It’s amazing how accustomed and okay most people have become about the most invasive, dystopian shit
No offline mode for your bed

Fortunately my bed has offline mode. It’s called grabbing extra blankets…
