96.8% accuracy sounds impressive until you realise they skipped the REM phase like it's a bug report. "user unpredictable when dreaming, exclude from dataset."

96.8% accuracy sounds impressive until you realise they skipped the REM phase like it's a bug report. "user unpredictable when dreaming, exclude from dataset." also love how your breath is now a biometric. imagine getting locked out of your account because you had a cold or ran up stairs. future's looking wheezy

> imagine getting locked out of your account because you had a cold or ran up stairs. future's looking wheezy This is me trying to use our fucking touchscreen stove Landlord's kitchen, I didn't know this was even an option until moving in here or I'd have asked some questions about wet hands. I'd not have thought to ask about cold hands, like when I held a freezer product for a minute, though I'd think it a mere annoyance if there was a physical OFF button. There is not. You can go to the cellar and trip the breaker I guess? Otherwise, you better have reasonably warm and dry fingers (it can deal with a bit of moisture and chill, but has limits similar to trying to use a phone in the rain) Gotta say it looks sleek though, when it's free of fingerprints and other usage marks I love technology

  Your post triggered a deep seething hatred in me of stoves with touch anything. Last place I lived (rented) was a stove with touch buttons on the stove top, which was itself a glass surface. Never mind that it beeped annoyingly on every input. Operating it with wet hands was impossible. A common situation in a kitchen. But the worst was that, if anything boiled over, the touch buttons went bananas, and usually ended up shutting everything off. Adding further annoyance and inconvenience to the situation. Because I had limited countertop space, I often wanted to use the stove as a working surface (when not in use, obviously), but it had some godforsaken detector that registered when something was put on top of (or near) the buttons (capacitive or not), and it would continuously beep until you moved it. I mean I kind of get it as a safety feature, but on the other hand I also want to override the machine, tell it to fuck off because I'm in control of the situation, and we wouldn't even have this problem in the first place, if it wasn't for this touch garbage. Whoever designed that thing should be fed feet first into a wood chipper.

  Try using a fruit?

    Lol! I'm picturing labelling an emergency banana as such We don't normally have fruit laying around but maybe I can find something conductive and finger sized and keep that around. Good idea! It'll be a small challenge though: the stove checks that you decisively press it with an object of the right size: changing size or position, like when pressing down slowly or shifting accidentally, doesn't work; and random metal objects, spilled liquids, or light touches can't change your settings either. It also needs to stay put for a second before anything happens (not annoying at all) or 3 seconds for the on/off button. I gotta give it some credit here for the efforts they took to make this a usable and safe product. It just can't work when there's any liquid anywhere near the button you're wanting, including the off button, you have to dry it first
