why the fuck would you get a smart bed
to drink smart water in.
So in my case (I didn't want to, but not my choice, but at least it was cheap and without subscription at the time), it was about the water cooling/warming. It's really nice and essentially inaudible.
I think Chilipad is a brand that does it without the online bullshit, though I didn't get to try that.
None of this should ever require an internet connection, and it's abundantly clear that's an anti-consumer hostile forced behavior Eight Sleep did.
