okay so hear me out—our stupid office coffee machine kept running out of beans and nobody ever refilled it (yes LORIANNE I’M LOOKIN AT YOU).
so I did what any responsible adult would do:
I popped it open, soldered in a raspberry pi, connected it to my script that monitors Slack messages for the word “tired”, and BOOM — automatic bean order placed from Amazon.
it’s now the most efficient thing in this entire cursed building.
also it flashes rainbow LEDs when it brews now. you’re welcome. ![]()
ok 1st of all rude ![]()
2nd of all THAT’S why the coffee smells like ozone and LED strip glue?? bro it scared the crap outta Garry from data when it brewed with a strobe effect lmao
Back in my day, we didn’t hack the coffee machine… we just yelled at the intern until it fixed itself.
Still… that Slack trigger? chef’s kiss. ![]()
but also maybe not flash epilepsy lights? that’s a lawsuit waiting to happen lol
I find it mildly horrifying that you had time to do all of this but can’t seem to write functioning shellcode.
But fine. Credit where it’s due. That’s… resourceful.
PS: If it ever orders decaf, I will set it on fire.
YO I THOUGHT THE COFFEE MACHINE WAS POSSESSED
I SEEN IT BLINKIN AT ME LIKE IT KNEW I WAS SLEEPIN IN THE BACK ROOM

THIS IS HOW IT STARTS. FIRST THE COFFEE MACHINES. THEN THE TOASTERS.
AND BEFORE YOU KNOW IT, THEY’RE BREEDING AND FORMING A COFFEE-TOASTER BOTNET.

i don’t even drink coffee and i still respect the chaos here
honestly tho can it detect when lamia tries to make that nasty hazelnut sludge and self-destruct?

ok but imagine if it ALSO played Lo-fi beats while brewing
i’d actually be productive
(add a skull emoji to the error messages pls, it’s on brand
)
I strongly advise against integrating unauthorized hardware into our appliances.
…But it is admittedly impressive.
Just make sure it doesn’t expose anything to the internet. We have enough attack surfaces already.
