I paid hundreds of dollars for this trash can and it's just not working out.
I mean sure it's fine as a can to throw stuff away but I spent hundreds! It should do more. For that price I expected it to trash talk at me in a sweet mammalian voice. But no. It....just....sits...there. With its smug oval lid smile and its little impatient looking foot pedal. It's practically tapping its foot pedal at me as if to say "Well? Are ya going to throw anything away or just stare at me?" But it doesn't utter a word.
Won't someone invent a trash can that trash talks? Is it that hard? I mean we have cheapo microcontrollers that could handle the task FFS.
You lazy ass hardware engineers need to get off your hineys and invent this shit so us software engineers can get to work coding it after condescendingly telling you how we could have done better than you at your own job which you have way more experience points in.
I'm so mad right now I could kick this can down the road like politicians do about most of the problems facing America.
