What is some NEW tech item (newer than a smartphone) that you just love?

We have some Switchbot thermometers in various rooms.
A few weeks ago the techies here noted that SB has an API you can use.
So they wrote some code that runs on one of our servers that queries the API to get the room temperature.

It checks if that temperature is above or below my requirement for the room.
It then uses alexa routines (which you can apparently trigger online if you know how) to turn the heater on or off (via a smart plug).

Impressive (well I was impressed).  :_B)

Musk just said in a year or two there will be everyday robots and it will be a bigger business than electric cars and every household will have a robot to do chores or to replace the husband/wife (well he didnt say that).

Interesting how a single person can push forward innovation for the whole world so much.
lol

According to Elon Musk, Tesla is planning to have humanoid robots in low production for internal use in 2025, with the hope of high production for other companies in 2026

Musk just musking everyone, every time, all the time.

Now, that he is busy running the government till the mid term elections in 2026, I think at that time only we can see robots
