    They promoted the slop-machine with “Scandinavian apartment” didn’t they?

      No, they probably used AI but the walls are very intentional. The whole post is promoting the Norwegian football team to stick it to England.

      Aah. That makes sense. I was trying to figure out why exactly the walls were Norwegian.

            England are playing Norway today in the world cup

            Ireland has some history with England

              Ah, I see. It doesn’t seem unrealistic for this to just be AI slop that someone prompted. Could be entirely automated even.

                Oh it’s almost definitely AI, I don’t expect Dublin fire station to have a Photoshop guy

                Was just giving the context

                  I don’t know this “photoshop”, I am confident they just painted a whole apartment in order to take the photo.

          • Norway are playing England in the football
          • Ireland historically dislikes England
          • The room being painted like that is very heavy-handedly implying that the Dublin fire brigade is supporting Norway because they want England to lose

      Surprised they still work. Nest smoke alarms are a dead product. Find something better now to replace them with.

      They were amazing tech created by a Boulder start-up to reinvent home safety, but Google murdered them.

      Already EOL and discontinued.

        They work, and beautifully at that. Supported by both the nest app and googles own home app.

        Why replace them. Not like the sensors in there will stop working any time soon. They have a 10 year shelf life

          It’s from Google. They already remotely killed all the 1st and 2nd generation nest thermostats. The sensor there would still work for decades, but you can’t set the temperature anymore because they decided that the line must go up

    I get the feeling many modern smoke detectors (In the US anyhow) monitor more than smoke and carbon monoxide. The ones I’ve seen in apartments are built like tanks and are around 5x the size of a hockey puck. They have an LED light constantly flashing green with a red every ten or so. I’m betting they could easily install cameras types and nobody would think twice.

    In my last apartment, I got up close to it one night and saw the product branding. It was “KIDEEZ”. What the actual fuck?
