A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

What happens, when the non smart microwave finally breaks and only smart ones are being sold? You could buy used, but what happens when that used inventory is used up?
Fortunately in case of microwaves, the simpler ones have the same internal parts as smart ones, and as such some supply is most likely going to be available.
Eventually you just have to move on and pick the least bad option out there. Mobile phones have already reached that stage and TVs are getting there.
In the case of most honestly. Most electronics that have smart features aren't extremely tied to them, as they just work without an internet connection/offline. The ones that do usually are advertised as reliant on apps at least where I live.
