My washing machine keeps asking to be connected to the WiFi. 2 years I've been ignoring it, which has been very convenient. I think it just wants to watch porn.
Sock puppet porn.
That's where they're disappearing to!
So that's what it means when it asks for a full load...
Plus it keeps collecting socks. Pervert.
Your fault for putting socks and panties in the same load....
I caught my mother's dehumidifier connecting to WiFi to watch porn. The damn thing was actually dripping wet.
Was it a dehumidifier by marriage? A step dehumidifier is quite the thing apparently.
No, but it sits right next to a washing machine. I'm surprised it wasn't stuck inside with its bottom sticking out.
Imagine if you could make it watch advertising for your earnings... But yes, it would need the softwares belong to you, rather than to the washing machine's maker...
There are apps which basically do that.
