Musing on 15 August 2022

hey!

I discovered that our air-conditioner has a nice feature - instead of setting speeds, temperatures and so on, you can just push the "I Feel Cold" or "I Feel Hot" buttons and the machine will do the right thing. Brilliant! It occurred to me that TVs need a similar feature - the "I Feel Bored" button, which you can press if the TV is just showing the same old stuff and you want to look at something interesting instead. But of course, TVs already have this button - it's usually labelled "Off" instead of "I Feel Bored", but it has a similar effect. Actually, I'm thinking of adding such a button to this website.
