You don’t even need that. My microwave is wifi connected but still can’t keep time. Instead of using NTP like any appliances or industrial control system in the last decade+, it syncs to your phone time though an app.
Wtf.
my microwave doesnt need wifi its a fucking microwave
A rather neat feature is scanning the barcode of an item with the phone app and the heating program is set automatically.
But setting the time automatically using ntp would have been enough for me.
I'm guessing that the way it works is it's sending the barcode number to the microwave supplier, the supplier sends it to 5738 vendors who have legitimate interest in updating the profile they already have on you, then the heating programme is sent back to you. The same heating programme is described on the package you already hold in your hands. Fingers crossed that your microwave is getting security updates, if not, someone could be downloading all data from your laptop because they got into your network using a microwave. That is the reality of IoT.
I just wish my microwave could have a Facebook login.
How many screen taps does it take to scan your food and send it to the microwave vs typing in the time like normal?
"Smart" microwave might be generally helpful, but a lot of them aren't for some reason, they went the first step of connecting to wifi and stopped there. Getting notification when ready or setting specific time and program via google voice instead of fiddling with controls is genuinely useful stuff that I would love to have
I'm so tired of everything being wifi connected
Nothing in my house is WiFi connected, other than computers and phones. It’s staying that way forever.
How about a custom OpenBSD router which allows only whitelisted traffic through, with a custom DNS server and comprehensive network monitoring, for aren't we paranoid?
Orrrrrr
Only computers and phones
Life is easy
Four desktop
Two rPi
Two ifone
One iPad
All we need
Life is good
Fuck IoT
All my homies hate IoT
If you have wifi you need to store it's credentials somewhere, and you run into same issue.
Actually automatic way would be to just take GPS signals clock time.
RCC has been available since the 80s. Much of the wold has been covered by radio time broadcasts that would be used by devices to set their own time but somehow it didn't start to become really commonplace until wifi allowed for 2-way communications 🤔
