I feel like if I was gonna put a computer attached to a motor & heater inside a bed, the very first step would be making sure that if the software goes wrong, it always defaults to staying bed shaped and not catching fire.
I know I know hindsight is 20/20, I’m sure I’m just missing something. Venture capitalists would just give their money to any random idiot with a pitch, right?
why? what if they want more money and decide to make it go subscription based? do you and the shareholders want to risk people just…unplugging them and continuing to use them? the mere idea made me drop my monocle .
Because their favourite YouTuber tells them how much better they’re feeling after getting one.
It’s why sponsorships are an outright negative for me when looking at products. They abuse the authority influencers seem to get. “Oh I like him and his videos, he wouldn’t lie to me.” Yeah right.
Absolutely, some youtubers are nothing but paid shills.
On the other hand, there are some who have a lot of integrity. If TechMoan for example tells us that something actually works, I’ll be very inclined to believe him.

It’s already subscription based lol
Wow, imagine having to pay a subscription to have a 2-year warranty.
why do people buy these things!?!?!
Because they sold their house they paid 12 acorns for for $2M and grandpa already has a Corvette.
Because bored Western middle class in a consumerist society.
