    A device to make rotis for $999! Will need wifi for updates, be part of Mirai to DDOS dissident websites in its spare time, and may well be used to hack into your home network. $999. 🙄pic.twitter.com/okjSmli4NT

        Top it off by paying $200 to boil water—being part of botnets and/or being hacked is complimentary. 😬🙄😬🙄pic.twitter.com/1DlE9JK8PH

        Also, $639 for the wifi microwave. You’re supposed to use the connectivity to better customize it to heat your pizza. Hint: don’t heat or cook pizza in the microwave. Donate $639 to @MSF_USA instead!pic.twitter.com/4mUlWO9iKr

        Apparently this machine is no good even to make rotis. It's amazon reviews are all over the place.

        Their orders are backed up, and they're sold out, even with average reviews. I guess people really hate making rotis.

        I thought the price tag was crazy, too, and told my sister that when she got it. But it turns out, she uses it for her family every single day. And when you consider the labor that goes into making rotis, it has been worth every cent. I'm a convert.

        We got a Roomba recently and my wife asked if I should allow it to have access to our network. I freaked out! No way, I said.

        Making rotis is tedious, and Indians in the target market have nostalgia and money. The DDOS worries are real, though.

        But I get to eat the roti, and the odds of a ddos affecting me are low...
