Sometimes, I want to do things simply because it is possible. It's not hard pressing a button to brew my morning coffee in the Keurig. Yet, it would sound way cool if I could automate that easy action.In that respect, I'm a little like George Jetson. His only apparent task at Spacely Space Sprockets was to press a button. George took a flying saucer to work in the morning space traffic to do so. On the other hand, I have to stumble just a few meters to the kitchen in our 750 sq ft apartment. However, this button-pushing seems ripe for automation.
I just added my not-so-arduous task to a Google Home routine. For years, when I've said, "OK Google, Good Morning," a series of actions occur. As well as telling me the weather and our appointments, the display screen on my bedside table turns off DND on my phone and turns off the night lights and white noise generator.
So, you can see the coffee machine is first up on the task list now In order to simplify my life a smidgeon, I have to remember to get a K-cup and empty mug ready before I go to bed. If I fail to do so, then a cup of hot water will pour all over the kitchen counter.
That is clearly a small price to pay for the added bragging rights. As you can clearly see, I don't fear danger, I laugh at it.
