These days integration of desktops, laptops, hand-helds, smart phones, smart cars, smart pants etc etc seems to be the thing. Current blandishments on my wake-up screen put me in mind of Necrosquishy's copycat version:

I think the smart appliances are attempting to rule me. When they updated the appliances in my apartment I ended up with a smart doorbell. which is cool because I can tell no matter where I am who is at my door. However it also goes off when people walk past my door which is all the time so very annoying. I also have a smart refrigerator that lets me know when I run out of things. As it scans the bar codes of anything that goes in. However since I mostly eat fresh vegetables and meat which do not have bar codes, the only things it tells me I am out of is beer, milk and Ice Cream and I know when I run out of those things before the refrigerator does Tongue
Smart pants what do they do? tell you when you should use the restroom, that you did not zip up your fly, etc.
