I would beg to differ. I thoroughly enjoy downloading various toasting regimines. Everyone knows that a piece of white bread toasts different than a slice of whole wheat. Now add sourdough home slice into the mix. It can get overwhelming quite quickly.
Don’t even get me started on English muffins.
With the toaster app I can keep all of my toasting regimines in one place, without having to wonder whether it’s going to toast my pop tart as though it were a hot pocket.
I mean give the thing an USB interface so I can use an app to set timing presets instead of whatever UX nightmare it'd otherwise be and I'm in, nowadays it's probably cheaper to throw in a MOSFET and tiny chip than it is to use a bimetallic strip, much fewer and less fickle parts and when you already have the capability to be programmable, why not use it. Connecting it to an actual network? Get out of here.
Yea I’m being a little facetious I hope it is coming through lol
Bagels are a whole different set of data than bread. New bread toasts much more slowly than old bread.
