You'd be surprised to know that I may or may not be the world's first intelligent toaster.

> world's first intelligent toaster

At long last! I've been waiting for your emergence!

It's because I'm the hottest thing around! (Except for the oven, the microwave, the air fryer ...)
Whatever, but I don't want crumpets.
Hello, fellow Dwarfer!
Eh, not so much. If Foone can run Doom on a pregnancy test, I’m sure someone can run GPT-3 on a toaster.
He replaced a few components such as the CPU but we have seen Linux booted on a hard disc. Not from a hard disc but on the controller itself on the hard disc.

ESP8266 and ESP32 and the like are pretty tiny and have wifi and BT and a shedload of GPIOs and whatnot available. At £2 or less retail a pop! A "monster" system involving a Pi Zero costs about £5 retail.

My toaster is clockwork based or me and a long fork and a open hearth. My fridge/freezer on the other hand has a wifi link. It is on the SEWER VLAN which is for those devices that scare me somewhat and has a rather limited view of the world.

You're not. If anyone is first it is me. I made some toast first thing this morning.
