Black Coffee from lnbits likes internet of things, but doesn't like the way it tends to work with centralised servers and spying companies running them.
But what if your coffee pot and lights and smart plugs were nostr instead?
Nobody can cut your machine off, it has it's own keys and encryption, you could even ruin your own relay to talk to it instead of using public relays.
Remote control without having to expose the home network.
You could even make it require zaps and so make a vending machine.
Demonstration by sending lightning requests to the coffee pot on stage works better than the mikes that have been feeding back this afternoon 😆

FYI for those of you interested in #iot - there is now an IOT tagpush bot in addition to @…
Tagpush bots are less hassle than the old @a.gup.pe bots because instead of having to mention the bot to get your post boosted, all you have to do is follow the bot and any messages you post with its tag will be boosted. You'll see what the bot boosts and not have to do anything special to have it boost other than add the hashtags you'd be adding anyway.
The @… bot boosts anything its followers post with #iot or #InternetOfThings
The @… bot does the same thing for the #homeassistant tag.
