Wait till you learn that your rice cooker uses fuzzy logic
Our rice cooker's only "logic" is a spring that lifts the bowl off the element once enough water has evaporated.
*Inspects saucepan*
It does? Wow this technology stuff is more insidious than I thought.
fuzzy logic doesn't send a constant stream of user data back to the mother company.
The problem isn't using choice making systems, the problem is using purchased appliances as spyware for corporate profit.
I don’t have or use a rice cooker. Not that that makes me special. I cook my rice in the oven using the Alton Brown method.
