If only there was a way to show that information on the actual machine. The one you need to be in front of to do anything about the information.
If I'm in my office I need to first get to the dishwasher. If I'm on my way home I can't turn on the oven to preheat. If my kids leave the fridge open I want to be notified before all the food is ruined, even if I'm at work.
I know that lemmy is fully of contrarians, but not everything is a conspiracy theory. Sometimes progress is useful.
You really should not turn the oven on remotely, especially when you have kids. Also your food will definitely not be ruined because your kids leave the fridge open for a few hours. And for the dishwasher you can just set a timer.
If you have meat or dairy items in your fridge, those can become unsafe to eat after only 2 hours. Since the cold air is more dense, it spills out the bottom of the fridge and gets replaced by room temperature air rather quickly. I've definitely eaten my fair share of questionable foods going past this, but the calculus changes if you're giving that food to other people.
As for the main point, agreed. I'm definitely not a luddite, but if I had kids who weren't yet responsible enough to not leave a fridge open for hours, I think I'd just put child locks on the fridge and make sure they had access to something else.
The oven is set high and has triple isolation, even after 1 h it's barely hot on the surface, plus the kids are with us when shopping. The fridge will surely compromise the food, plus consume a lot of energy. And no timer can select the mode of the dishwasher, or change or on the fly or integrate projected solar production.
I will not make my life more expensive,.more risky and less comfortable to save 1kb of internet traffic.
