did you buy a smart oven? i feel like they probably make something that actually does what you want.

>smart
nobody tell him

>still can't preheat my oven from work
I'd never do that.

I'm too paranoid about my house burning down to even go out with the oven on or something on the stove.

>Pre heat oven
Just put it on for a few minutes extra when you cook, ain't noone got time for that shit.

Only time I pre heat is when I have to prep the meat beforehand rather than just buying the cut I want.

Smart homes will remain a meme until commercial robots arrive. I'm thinking 20-30 years. Nothing in a smart home actually makes your life easier unless it's simple electrics which you don't need proprietairy software and specially licensed hardware for.

"smart ovens" in current year are fucking Juicero tier scams that require an app to cook frozen meals really well.

I've left stocks and stews to simmer overnight before, and I have no problem leaving an oven on unsupervised for a reasonable amount of time (like 1 hour max). I keep a clean kitchen and I don't have kids or keep a woman, so I never have accidents.

But while you're out, something may happen like a car accident or whatever that would keep you out for longer than expected.

If he is in a car accident he has bigger problems than his soup boiling away.

>>17472376
Yes, having nowhere to come home to!

>>17472376
No, I'd be pretty concerned about the soup.

>>17472312
Most ovens have a automatic start feature, it's sometimes called sabbath mode.

If I'm in a car accident I'd let someone know and a nice white bolice officer could turn it off for me. I'd never leave something actually cooking in an oven though, and the odds of me having an accident on the one day a month I make stock/stew are minuscule

>>17472404
Can confirm, a white bolice officer will do that sort of thing for a fellow white, blacks have to deal with burned roasts and boiled dry soup.

>he doesn't have a wojakbot slave to do his prep

The REAL question is: can it suck dick? If it ain't smart enough to suck dick, I don't want it.

>>17472359
Why not just use a slow cooker or something for that instead.

>>17472710
Can a slowcooker preheat my oven?

>>17472744
Yeah, probably.

>>17472312
Seems like something hackers could start a house fire with

>falling for the IoT "smart" shit
You fucking retard.
