What psychopath sleeps in 33°C willingly, wtf
Home Assistant
come me to here.
"we want homes that don't contribute to an environmental footprint". I'm sorry but that is a ridiculous statement. It makes zero sense.
He said the clapper doesn’t have no apps LOL of course it doesnt have apps , we didn’t even know what a app was…we didn’t know what the Internet was lol
The remote finder walked so Tile could run.
12:04 Marques is so high-tech he had an Apple Watch in the 80s
Funny to see M on a video call with Bill on a Mac ??
If I need to preheat the oven before I get home, my schedule is too full.
Story Time.
This is an illustration of how fast technology has moved. In 2014 I was a home integration specialist. Essentially salesperson that sold smart home and home theaters to wealthy people in Rancho Santa Fe, Cali.
We used the Savant System. We also sold a box and subscription service…this should blow your mind…so our clients could screen current movies in their home theaters….and they signed a contract where they couldn't turn it into a small theater. Strictly home use.
One deal…145k . Home Theater with 4k projection. Lutron Lights, sec cam, temp controlled rack room. Outdoor speakers.
My commision? Average yearly income for Americans.
You can order all of this from Amazon now. Your lighting will be better…and your cams will be better.
The only thing that has yet to come is a cool feature of the Savant system. Imagjne a picture of your living room. Imagine lights on end tables. You could be at work and touch the iPad (what we used for remotes) on the pic of the lights and turn them on…same with TV and HVAC and sound system.
But all the money for features that the average person can afford now…12k was charged for our programmer to program the system. Anyway….7 years later and all that money was waisted…..except for the family's proscenium….we had a master carpenter and interor designer..that shit was beautiful.
The imminent intestine randomly disagree because equipment untypically suggest via a dreary zebra. dear, next romanian
Idk, even modern smarthome stuff seems completely unnecessary to me.
12:22 you can see that mkbhd is still wearing an apple watch lmao
black power white people could never
Bill Gates is a genius.
That's a great intro ??
6:15 ooh fat black women in modern Youtube Videos, thats soo woke! fk me

Premium Life

Man talking to Bill Gates on an Apple Laptop
my dad was one of the original developers of X -10, my entire house was motion or voice activated, i never hit a light switch until i was 5 years old
We are getting closer for that thing to happen
Yeah they should make something smarter and convenient so people can used things easier and your right we are getting closer
This radio looks simple
17:49 oh no Marques. Talking to Bill in MacOS
I am obsessed’ed with these series!!!!!
The one button that helps you multitask. ?
Anybody notice the video splicing at 13:08, look at the cord lol
The 1995 remote locator is Nope to me. Cuz imagine losing the Locator itself, there's no point.
12:19 that small box would be perfect today.
@:7:30 I’m gonna buy one of those TVs for my future kids. Good start
Anyone else find it interesting that the commercials in the beginning was showcased amongst many women?
The segway at the very end from the current video to the wearable tech video, just by gesture, suggestive language strategically followed by the YouTube pop up by Marques, is the well thought out content execution I'm here for ??.
Enjoying your content from South Africa ??.
9:30
Was that high pitched noise added or was that actually the tv doing it?
Let's remember the 80's
Marques returns from school drops his bag and checks the time on apple watch on his wrist
My neighbors had the clapper and the lights kept going off and on.
How you gonna call Bill Gates on a Mac lol
Love this retro tech series, hope this series continues until our current tech becomes “80’s” tech hahahaha
