A small, portable device with a suction cup so it can be hidden easily under tables, etc. It uses sensors to check that there's nobody home then uses a small, high-powered speaker to say something along the lines of "Alexa, buy 500 cases of vegetable shortening. Alexa confirm purchase."
I love spending my Sunday afternoons wallowing in Crisco
@brunodias I'd buy that and have it order the collectors edition of "why iot will destroy the world"
@brunodias Sounds like a perfect raspberry pi project
@brunodias The true Spiritism.
"Who just told Alexa to order this?!"
"Idk, must've been a ghost. Maybe it can order a Ouija board to tell us what it wants."
"THE SPIRITS FROM BEYOND THE GRAVE ARE USING ALEXA TO COMMUNICATE TO US!"
@brunodias crazy hack Idea.. Technically as of right-now. You could hide this device in my home.. and tell it to order stuff to my door.. and then you could wait around and try to intercept.. and it would work!
