What the hell are you people doing buying this crap in the first place?

[–] Zink@programming.dev 26 points 21 hours ago

I'm convinced that much of, if not most of, society sees technology in our personal lives as a way to (ideally) not have to learn anything or put in one bit of extra effort.

I've been getting my hands dirty and doing more things myself over the past few years, and ya know sometimes the journey is more impactful on you as a person than the destination is. Learning things and interacting with the world around you is good.

Ultrasonic cutting tech is really cool tbh. That doesn't mean the fucking thing has to be internet connected and have firmware updates .

But it isn't? No serious chef would use this bullshit.

[–] nova_ad_vitum@lemmy.ca 3 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

They haven't had the option until now so that's trivially true. This is among the first times this tech has been put into a hand-held knife. Until now it's been limited to industrial food processing where you're cutting something sticky. Turns out you can prevent sticking just by vibrating the blade at a few khz. No chemical coatings required.

I don't expect wide adoption among chefs and this won't at any point replace a substantial proportion of normal knives. And this implementation of the tech is silly and bears all the flaws of modern product design. But it is cool tech.

Vibrating blades have been a thing a lot longer than the internet has.

[–] ColeSloth@discuss.tchncs.de 6 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

This knife is expensive, but actually pretty badass. It's an ultrasonic frequency knife and the only non commercial use chefs knife I know of that does it and works. It cuts with no effort, but really the biggest perk is that absolute fuck all will even try and stick to the side of the blade. Still to richy rich for the benefits, but it is cool tech.

You have non-smart knives that don't have a usb3 port for updates?
