    How much does this fuckin thing cost? Without looking, I'm going to guess $60 USD.

    Edit: lmao they start at $100 and go to $130 for the newest model, what the actual fuck? Do these people know you can get a contigo mug for $10 that will keep your coffee hot for 4 hours and those don't have to be recharged to work? Also you can put them in the dishwasher.

      The advantage over a Contigo mug is that the mug only slows the monotonic decrease in temperature. It still occupies a relatively small time between too hot to drink and too cold.

      With the Ember at on it's charge plate, as soon as it gets to ideal temperature, it'll hold it indefinitely.

        That relatively small time would be perfectly adequate if the person would stop playing with their mug app and drink their goddamn coffee!

    Even in the realm of entrepreneurialism, meritocracy is an absolute joke. People invent the stupidest fucking shit. We might as well have a Keynesian make-work program where we pay people to pump plastic and lead solder straight into a landfill. The results would be superior.

    It's like that scene in Other Space when the power goes out and the captain refuses to drink from his connected cup because it won't tell him what's inside it.

    Eh, I prefer to completely forget to drink my coffee and reheat it on the stove or in the microwave till the end of my life. Maybe this will eventually be the norm for zoomers, or post zoomers?

    Bluetooth bidet is good though. As persons with chronical problems can tell you it is really nice to be able to move the temperature and pressure density profile from one to the other device.
