Samsung’s latest stick vac can alert you to calls and text messages
-
Even better:
Even better, if you’re doing the wash and left your phone in the other room, Samsung’s added touchscreens to its washers and dryers, including the new Bespoke AI Laundry Vented Combo washer / dryer ($3,099). This lets you answer a call directly on the built-in 7-inch LCD screen.
You can take calls with your clothes dryer!
Sounds like The Perfect Product!

Why the fuck would someone spend a grand on a vacuum that does all that extra stupid shit?
A vacuum just needs to suck.
Yeah, so now it sucks more. Isn't that good?

That's nothing! My reusable digital toilette paper let's me zoom and teams into important work meetings. It even includes a 3D digital camera and digital texturizer so you can feel the other side.

This was literally my reaction when reading this. Who the fuck needs to be so connected they need to know immediately when vacuuming. Heaven forbid it waits 5 minutes until you're done.

I have taken calls while loading my dryer, and it’s fucking stupid to not wait. I took advantage of advanced technology called a “pocket” to carry my “mobile” device

This seems really useless

There is no world in which the barely marginal convenience outweighs the additional cost (and near certain privacy invasion of a microphone equipped dryer).
not to mention, why would you even want to start a conversation that could run on indefinitely and keep you hostage in your laundry room. nothing about this makes sense if you think about it for 5 seconds.

there is a point where something sucks so much it blows.

Do you know how I can tell when I have an incoming call or message? My phone, which is in my pocket, makes a noise and vibrates. Why the absolute hell would I want my vacuum cleaner to notify me of a call?
And the washer too? Do they seriously think people just sit around at home taking calls every 5 minutes that they need every appliance to be able to make/take phonecalls?

Some crappy product manager found some agreeable "tech enthusiasts" and/or worded their research questions in such a way that made it seem like this would be a net positive to the sales/profit of the product.
The engineers who had to design this terrible product were probably making jokes about it all the time.

"Hello?"
"Hey Dave...wait what's that noise?"
"Oh that's my washer and dryer going."
"Can you move to the other room? I can't hear you very well."
"No, the call is on my washer."
"WHAT?"

It's about reducing variable costs.
You build phones, watches, tvs, washers, dryers, fridges? Why use separate hardware and software? That's just expensive. Just build a common platform that can be easily modified for everything and take advantage of production scale to reduce costs everywhere.
Slap in all those smart phone features too because why the fuck not. It's cheap and someone might be convinced to buy it.
Modern tech sucks
