Comic title: Life in 2030”
This shows guy facing futuristic yet bleak smart home with many IoT devices and AI etc. Smart toilet is updating so he cant use it. Robot wife low battery so cant sleep with her. Fridge locked behind ads and ask to upgrade to premium version. Park is now data center so no walk for him. Smart bed subscription expired so he falls on floor. Air is taxed so he cant breath and vents say pay now to getair. Man looks stressed and sweaty in every panel.
Bed think literally already happened, some amazon smart bed or some shit that was adjustable and it would fold shut like a clam if you didn’t pay the subscription so you physically couldn’t sleep on it.
Pod8, not Amazon related but a like 3-8000 dollar mattress topper that can heat or cool depending on a number of factors. The model that adjusts temp is server sided so it will work without a subscription (for now) but just in basic “set temp” mode, when it’s sold as this device that tracks heart rate and movement to dynamically adjust temp. Tech bros with no kids and too much cash love it
It also stops working if Amazon web services go down, which is hilarious (which is maybe why people link it to Amazon, but that’s a different and worse problem where Amazon controls like 50% of the internet through data hosting)
I have a heated mattress pad, but one that also cooled would be great. Not $3k great, but I’d pay a couple hundred. I only need to be able to set the temperature anyway.
Never heard of this one. Eight sleep smart bed would revert to basic features if you didn’t pay subscription though.
