Why are there usb ports on the microwave?

[dsalo@digipres.club]

@futurebird For a couple of those USB-powered can fridges.

Hot pizza and cold beer, what's not to like?

@futurebird Command-line Microwave!

[mrgm@mastodon.social]

@futurebird For USB to RS-232 serial console access/control

[joriki@infosec.exchange]

@futurebird

you can power the microwave using your phone during a power outage

@futurebird
With some cross link USB cables and a hub, connect it to the fridge and dishwasher and play multiplayer DOOM.

Don't hook up the washing machine, though. It will rotate the token, putting an early end to your KAN (kitchen appliances network) party!

@futurebird how can there be a correct answer??

[glutto@mastodon.social]

@futurebird

So you can run dual hot plates.

@futurebird it's a MIDI host so you can program your yamaha DX7 with pizza rolls

@futurebird copy your files to the microwave and nuke them for 30 seconds to sanitize them -- it's the best way to remove bugs and viruses.

@futurebird so you can install linux using UEFI and free your food reheating process from the shackles of proprietary software.

[cassandravert@indieweb.social]

So you can charge the toaster.

[knapjack@snac.gruntle.cc]

@futurebird@sauropods.win Oooh, now with fancy pre-defrost boot logo.

[brandonscript@appdot.net]

@futurebird daisy-chaining microwaves. The waves are compressed and sent through the USB to additional connected microwaves.

@futurebird

Find the recipe on your phone, connect it through one of the ports, and the oven will make it.

Early model Star Trek replicator.

@a2_4am @llewelly @futurebird And probably not a part of a complete breakfast.

[stephaniemoore@mastodon.online]

@robertklaschka @futurebird I think this is winner winner chicken dinner

[llewelly@sauropods.win]

@rperezrosario @a2_4am @futurebird I will admit that it is harder to work a 12 hour shift on a breakfast of coffee and USB ports than on breakfast of rice and potatoes.

Obviously, to program the mark-space-ratio of the magnetron power-supply to play music as your food cooks.
