When they offer me a robot that can fetch and open a cold beer, we’ll talk.
I have a coffeepot with a timer, so that when I get to the kitchen at 5:30 a.m., the coffee is ready for me. (If I didn’t know that, I might never get up!)

I’ve been watching British detective series, over Netflix.
It seems that “tea” is a social ritual, not just hot beverage.
Of course arranging the heating of hot liquid for drink, from bed, using a smartphone, would just be another reflection of individual isolation, from personal contact.
People text, rather than converse over the phone.
They telecommute rather than go into the office for face to face living.
etc.

I just hacked my neighbor’s WiFi. Now hold me brew mate, and watch this, hee hee! The poor slapper’s kettle has a mind of its own!
