Technology will soon be able to do pointless things

sean [Edit] [Delete] 17:59, 20 August '13

I am a little bit scared for the future of humanity when I read things like this http://nymag.com/daily/intelligencer/2013/08/internet-of-things-taught-my-dog-to-text.html

This so far seems like all it really does is turn lamps off and on - how fucking lazy do you have to be to not wanna turn lamps off and on?

What's the most pointless 'problem' you think technology might one day 'solve'? And have you any good examples of technology solving shit for you that actually makes your life a little less shit?
