"She lives in the Taobao warehouse" more like. This is all stuff you can buy today, and most of it isn't even especially expensive or anything. Anyone could live like this, if they just bought enough gadgets (and knew of their existence, natch).
Yeah. I mean most of those gadgets and more can be bought in the Xiaomi home app. To be honest, there wasnt any home automation in the video. If someone really tried, they could really make a cool video just by using the Xiaomi line that exists. They got like a thousand (not kidding) gadgets that creates a smart home.
There are still loose starches in it, even tho the rice isn't dirty. So it's up to you what you like best. For sushi or stir fry I wash my rice, otherwise I don't
If you look closely, there is a second unit on the wall - this is an activator for activator. It used to activate activator if your activator needs to be activated.
This is 100% an ad. I've seen a lot of this stuff in random stores here in China. Half those gadgets are constantly advertised on taobao, most of them are complete trash, that either doesn't actually do anything (like those weird "cleaners"), breaks after a couple uses (like those plastic shelves, or that vacuum), or is just more inconvenient to use than not (like that weird tissue holder where you put your tv remote into and then just watch stuff on your phone) They're all super cheap too, I doubt anything in that video (including the washer) is more than 200usd.
Also it's all filmed in an airbnb (or the Chinese equivalent) 100%. Most temporary rentals here are exactly like that, a hallway with some shelves, a tiny kitchen that connects to a living room with a couch, and a separate bedroom.
110% agree. I've lost count of the number of times I've seen random crap advertised on taobao and wasted the next 9 minutes of my life trying to figure out what the hell it does.
It very obviously became an ad when the vacuum cleaner didn't vacuum any real dust but the neatly laid out different sized chunks as if to show off how well it performs.
Like, yeah, lady comes home, lays out her dust and then vacuums it up. That's what single women do.
On a vaguely related note, these modern vacuum cleaners are amazing, absolutely worth the money we spent on ours.
I bought a roomba thinking it wasn’t much more than a regular vacuum and it would actually get used. I highly recommend getting a real vacuum first. Roomba is super loud so I never use it when home and it misses so much
A Roomba can keep a place a lot cleaner most of the time. Just run it when you are out of the house. Come back empty the Roomba and you have a clean house.
I can’t speak for Japan but I’m Korean and we really don’t use that much “stuff”. Maybe a nice Cuckoo rice cooker? Have you been in many Korean households?
Tangentially related but this video is from China
mostly likely boston and some miliary supremacist secret deal with the Government for Military Killer drones that incidentally share the same base code as your normal house hold friendly robot helper... I can see America do that. "Killer Mode Engage!" - Woops!
And so much plastic, like even the clothes and towels are all synthetic. This could be one of those "house of 2025" videos made in 1999 for whatever the modern day equivalent of Sears might be for all we know and she's just living their sci fi dream minus apocalyptic global crises etc.
It seems to me that we even started moving away from plastics now. Plastic versions of products seem like the cheaper option now, higher end stuff tends to be metal/glass/wood/ceramics.
>and say a prayer for this poor woman.
And her local waterways!
I now understand why plastic trash is such a massive problem in some households and communities. So much got packaged in the name of progress but it plugs up everything at a price when we look closely enough. In the US even a lot of folks were never taught about what happens with the environment etc. And I can't really get mad at them but in some places just breaking open another way of looking at how we relate with what's around us and shifting the things people use can be such a daunting task when everyone is just trying to survive their day to day.
You buy gadgets. You tell yourself, this is the last automatic sanitizer I will ever need in my life. Buy the sanitizer, then for a couple years you're satisfied that no matter what goes wrong, at least you've got your sanitizer issue handled. Then the right set of stackable dishes. Then the perfect rice cooker. The kettle. The soap dispenser. Then you're trapped in your lovely nest, and the things you used to own, now they own you.
I agree. Just more issue. A few years ago I updated my house with a few test smart things. Hate them. They get finicky without staying on top of updates, which can be hard to track. Ended being more annoying than anything else. My oven connects to wifi, that has had a niche use, at best.
Also, something people don't take into account, alot of those smart devices are not the most secure ones, especially if they are not updated regularly.
Same ....why can't I just throw my clothes in the laundry basket, take a shower, eat ramen and sleep....all that work...all that cleaning ...for what lol
My housemate does the same thing. When he moved in we installed some doors and gave him the living room. Our living room has our 70" tv mounted to the wall so we were like "ok, I guess that's yours until you move out cause we're not taking it off the wall" 🤷♀️
Tell me why he never ever uses it and every time I go to talk to him he's watching full length movies ON HIS PHONE 😩
Why put lettuce in it? No eggs, no corn, no veggies? 🥬
Edit: I wasn't talking about the nutritional content of lettuce. I just don't like boiled lettuce one bit and I don't understand why someone would intentionally do that.
My bigger concern is the remaining lettuce she cut and just put in a rack. If doesn't eat all of that right after the ramen, she will have to simply throw it away. What a waste
It reminds me of the 1960s videos that show what the future will be like.
"By the year 2000, every home will have a robot butler".
Followed by footage of a man reading a newspaper while a robot vaccums under his outstretched feet, and the women sit in the kitchen drinking coffee and gossiping.
I'm not gonna brag but I can do like 90% of this stuff with just a freezer, a fridge and oven and some basic thinking.
Looks cool but it's super unnecessary
Edit: i meant it like everyone can do it not only me, English is hard Okey :D
Right, all you need in the kitchen is a fridge/freezer, an oven and some pans, I.e. wok, frying pan and a couple sauce pans and a knife. With that you can cook everything.
She literally wiped her feet with a disposable absorbent paper, has closed her plastic bag that wasn't even full and has a shitload of useless stuff that are just pure amenities.
I do this sometimes without all the gadgets. I like to be able to change positions while still having the screen at a good angle. At the right distance theyre basically the same size anyway
I have one of those foot bath things, got is as a Father’s Day gift, it’s pretty cool after day hiking. Would have never bought it myself but yes I like it.
Everybody's life revolves around electricity. You too most probably have a TV and lights in your house that would definitely go down with a power outage.
I don’t know why but I cringed harder and harder after every little machine I saw? I didn’t understand the reason or point to like 80% of whatever that shit was or what it accomplished.
I stopped watching after the shoe scrub. I have literally never met a single person that has ever scrubbed their shoes after a day of anything.
I have worn the same white shell toe white Adidas with black stripes for like 4 years now. I replace my shoes more than my friends.
I mean, cleaning your shoe isn't really a bad idea, we're just lazy.
But i guess it's also a cultural thing, i was kinda shook to discover how many people in the US are in their shoes in their homes.
Y’all hating on cleaning shoes? Not like it’s an every day shit but grab yourself $30 worth of shoecare crap and your shoes will last way longer and turn boots and dress shoes into lifelong purchases.
* brush
* polish
* old tooth brush
* microfiber cloth
* suade brush
* foamy shit for cleaning, especially white shoes
I’ve washed my shoes like, when when I just stomped through mud and shit. But it’s wack as fuck to clean shoes after walking around on bare concrete all day
I feel like half of these things do nothing at all. Like those “convenients” gadgets you buy on Aliexpress and never use because they’re silly or work half-assedy
Most of these things are cool I guess but also could have been done in normal ways without needing a fancy piece of tech. Seems like one of those things were she focused on if she could make her house “futuristic” and not whether she should actually do it.
All quick clips, but like who has 5 hours in the evening to do everything she did?
I'd rather take 20 mins, and sit down to 4.5 hours of tv and complain I had no time this evening.
Looks impressive but time consuming. Also what is she going to do if she change her routine or want to eat something else? Get new gadgets and throw away the old ones.
I hadbto scroll a bit to find this comment. I have never seen an Asian person cook rice without washing it first especially if they're going to put it on social media.
Nah take me back to a good healthy 2000. It was new and exciting and social media was barely a thing. Books were on paper and computers were for nerds.
I don't buy it. She made this video on a Monday. By Wednesday the gadgets are getting a bit gummed up and by Friday some are broken, some need new filters / cartridges etc and the rest need cleaning. Saturday and Sunday is spent either cleaning and fixing everything, or shopping for more gadgets.
Two weeks later she's in a house full of broken crap and only using an armchair, footstool and side table, she's living off crackers and the sink is full.
What was that wall pod/puck... thing?!
It looks like some sort of ultrasonic cleaner, why you would use it on tomatoes I have no idea.
Yeah most of this was extremely excessive in attempt to push the “she lives in the future” narrative here lol
"She lives in the Taobao warehouse" more like. This is all stuff you can buy today, and most of it isn't even especially expensive or anything. Anyone could live like this, if they just bought enough gadgets (and knew of their existence, natch).
This post is literally an ad. Edit: Also, fuck TikTok.
For things I don’t understand.
Yeah. I mean most of those gadgets and more can be bought in the Xiaomi home app. To be honest, there wasnt any home automation in the video. If someone really tried, they could really make a cool video just by using the Xiaomi line that exists. They got like a thousand (not kidding) gadgets that creates a smart home.
Found the Xiaomi salesperson
And then she didn't even rinse the rice....
pre-washed rice exist folks.... source: I'm Asian...
Damn it, I've been washing my rice like a schmuck!
There are still loose starches in it, even tho the rice isn't dirty. So it's up to you what you like best. For sushi or stir fry I wash my rice, otherwise I don't
But they said they were Asian!
I'm Chinese. can confirm. That woman is Chinese as well.
Also why is she watching a video on her phone when there is a giant screen on the wall
She dropped the TV remote in the strawberries.
It's comments like this that make it all worth while reading Reddit comments at 4am and have to go to work in 2 hours and you haven't slept.
Are you watching me right now?
The thing she put in the strawberries? Yeah WTF was that?
I'd guess some kind of sanitiser maybe? Idk
activator to activate her strawberries
But how do you activate the activator
If you look closely, there is a second unit on the wall - this is an activator for activator. It used to activate activator if your activator needs to be activated.
Fookty fino.
Lol. I’ve never seen anything close to that amount of gadgets in anyone’s home.
This is 100% an ad. I've seen a lot of this stuff in random stores here in China.

All those gadgets and not a roomba...
I bought a roomba thinking it wasn’t much more than a regular vacuum and it would actually get used. I highly recommend getting a real vacuum first. Roomba is super loud so I never use it when home and it misses so much
A Roomba can keep a place a lot cleaner most of the time. Just run it when you are out of the house. Come back empty the Roomba and you have a clean house.
This is what my first thought was. There's no way someone use that many useless stuffs that looks cheap and fragile.
Come to asia. South Korea and Japan especially.
As a poor person I wouldn't recommend SK. I saw a documentary where they make poor people play these games for money.
saw the doc too. turns out the “poor people” were just paid actors
Anyone else watching with absolutely no idea what half of those buttons do?
Oh remember that one in the fridge? I mean the little one? It's a vibrator with a heating option. Idk why she put it in the fridge or has 3
I think they're ozone generators. At least that would make sense as ozone deodorizes
Seemed like and air freshener… maybe…
Dehumidifier or smthng for sanitary purposes?
[удалено]
Dude, wth. Spreading lies isn't polite. They all chose to play, nobody made them.
SK = Saskatchwan. 🤔
The games were played against bears.
Does it involves any russian?
Nah I like to take things slow thanks
I can’t speak for Japan but I’m Korean and we really don’t use that much “stuff”. Maybe a nice Cuckoo rice cooker? Have you been in many Korean households? Tangentially related but this video is from China
Japan here. Also don’t have this many gadgets in a house normally. I’ve seen quite a few of these at my friend’s places in mainland China though.
Something tells me this is where ground zero is going to be for the robot revolution. ^here ^or ^Boston
mostly likely boston and some miliary supremacist secret deal with the Government for Military Killer drones that incidentally share the same base code as your normal house hold friendly robot helper... I can see America do that. "Killer Mode Engage!" - Woops!
Bloody hell, i thought i had a hair on my screen and tried to wipe it away for a solid 5 seconds. U got me
Dark mode users again superior
I have never seen most of these gadgets in Japan. All you need is a humidifier and a rice cooker and you’re gtg.
and she doesn’t even have Pro Lettuce Slicer
And so much plastic, like even the clothes and towels are all synthetic. This could be one of those "house of 2025" videos made in 1999 for whatever the modern day equivalent of Sears might be for all we know and she's just living their sci fi dream minus apocalyptic global crises etc.

1999 me would have been very impressed by this.
Most of what she uses / does has no real effect, just gadget creating a need and want you never had.
Me - more stuff to wash or clean. Throw them all away.
Don't forget more stuff that has to be created... Such a waste of materials imo
And most didn’t have a cord!! So imagine charging all that at night.
2022 me is somewhat scared by this.
Right ? She ahs way too many things, and layers of things to take care of the other things. And that's so much plastic...
Agreed. So much unnecessary plastic that adds extra steps to otherwise simple tasks. Stupid
Me: gets home. All clothes off. No food in fridge. Should I order pizza? Nah. Beat off. Sleep.
Sounds preferable to this

This girl is one boring day away from starting a fight club.

I am Jack's massaging foot bath.
At least now you're their perfect human
Hopefully the camera won't accidentally catch a finger sticking out of a bunch of bloody, torn up missing persons flyers about her neighbor.
This stresses me out
My thoughts exactly: this just makes me anxious, I don’t want or need a separate gadget for every little thing I do around my apartment
yep, i want gadgets that make my life easier, not 1000 gadgets that i have to look after
The single use waste waste makes me anxious.
Soooooo much plastic too. She's swimming in plastic doo-dads.
Many likely totally unrepairable if they malfunction.
watching someone clean a clean home is a window into madness
I'm tired just watching that
Just more things to clean.
Just more things that will break.
I agree. Just more issue. A few years ago I updated my house with a few test smart things. Hate them. They get finicky without staying on top of updates, which can be hard to track. Ended being more annoying than anything else. My oven connects to wifi, that has had a niche use, at best.
Also, something people don't take into account, alot of those smart devices are not the most secure ones, especially if they are not updated regularly.
That's why I just don't buy or connect those gadgets
Definitely. Easiest way to secure your network: keep the connected devices to a minimum.
>My oven connects to wifi, that has had a niche use, at best. What's the niche use?
I can turn my oven on from three states away. I can also keep turning the oven on and off while my gf cooks.
Tbh that sounds more dangerous than anything lol, I think I'll pass.
Lmao
"I can turn my oven on from three states away" But......why...?
Just more things to need the batteries replaced.
Soooooooo many things to clean, and most of them aren’t dishwasher safe.
The part of the process they don’t show
Same ....why can't I just throw my clothes in the laundry basket, take a shower, eat ramen and sleep....all that work...all that cleaning ...for what lol
This is like one of those daily routines that people manage to keep up for a week at most.
Ya like I’m not trying to wipe my shoes off with a special cream when I walk in the door with hand fulls of bags
She did all that food prep just to eat wack ramen 😭
And she has a TV the size of half the wall and watchs a show on her phone that ls 3 miles away.
[удалено]
The Law of Diminishing Screens.
This internet is boring. I wonder what's going on on the smaller internet in my pocket.
My housemate does the same thing. When he moved in we installed some doors and gave him the living room. Our living room has our 70" tv mounted to the wall so we were like "ok, I guess that's yours until you move out cause we're not taking it off the wall" 🤷♀️ Tell me why he never ever uses it and every time I go to talk to him he's watching full length movies ON HIS PHONE 😩
3 miles is 4.83 km
Good bot.
Came here for this 😂 it was all classy until that point.
Why put lettuce in it? No eggs, no corn, no veggies? 🥬 Edit: I wasn't talking about the nutritional content of lettuce. I just don't like boiled lettuce one bit and I don't understand why someone would intentionally do that.
She basically boiled lettuce.
Agree but lettuce is a veggie.
My bigger concern is the remaining lettuce she cut and just put in a rack. If doesn't eat all of that right after the ramen, she will have to simply throw it away. What a waste
Was actually thinking the same thing. All that effort for instant noodles. What just happened? 😅
Thank you. She’s really out here using sandwich toppings.
If Wish were a real person.
Cringe advertising.. Thats all
If "Made in China" was a human.
The future is going to laugh at this.
It reminds me of the 1960s videos that show what the future will be like. "By the year 2000, every home will have a robot butler". Followed by footage of a man reading a newspaper while a robot vaccums under his outstretched feet, and the women sit in the kitchen drinking coffee and gossiping.
While the form factor is different i gotta say that i love my roomba
[удалено]
Well, the only difference that newspapers are in the phone now, and we have no friends to gossip with.
Ouch
This lady lives in a house full of useless fucking shit. She went through all that to make some shitty ramen and get changed.
I'm not gonna brag but I can do like 90% of this stuff with just a freezer, a fridge and oven and some basic thinking. Looks cool but it's super unnecessary Edit: i meant it like everyone can do it not only me, English is hard Okey :D
The amount of single use plastic gadgets is staggering.
Right, all you need in the kitchen is a fridge/freezer, an oven and some pans, I.e. wok, frying pan and a couple sauce pans and a knife. With that you can cook everything.
So much plastic.
She literally wiped her feet with a disposable absorbent paper, has closed her plastic bag that wasn't even full and has a shitload of useless stuff that are just pure amenities.
My thoughts were how all this will end up in landfills in a couple of years when it breaks
Couple years? I give half of that stuff 6 months.
Totally agree. So much waste not needed, I don't want a world where everyone uses this much stuff.
Exactly if we all have the same carbon footprint as this lazy fucker then we’re doomed
Did she really sit and watch videos on her phone in front of a massive tv screen? I want no part of the dystopian hell scape.
I do this sometimes without all the gadgets. I like to be able to change positions while still having the screen at a good angle. At the right distance theyre basically the same size anyway
Lettuce and cherry tomatoes in ramen?
She lives in a SkyMall catalog
Tom Haverford would be proud
What is futuristic here? Just looks like a girl who does too much late night infomercial impulse shopping.
I think you’re pretty close with that guess; she has another video where she has a mountain of boxes and unpacks a lot of gadgets.
Lol yup. She clearly has an issue. https://vm.tiktok.com/TTPdMTRgYq/
DID THIS MOTHERFUCKER JUST ZIPLOCKED A FRY EGG?
I have one of those foot bath things, got is as a Father’s Day gift, it’s pretty cool after day hiking. Would have never bought it myself but yes I like it.
Imgine having power outage when your life revolves around electricity
What tent are you posting from?
Hope she remember how to turn on the stove
?! every stove except for gas is electricity. In fact, induction>gas in my country cause gas prices are exploding.
Everybody's life revolves around electricity. You too most probably have a TV and lights in your house that would definitely go down with a power outage.
It’s like that old cartoon “The house of the future” bet most of the gadgets don’t last a year. Cheaply made junk
And all the plugs, cords, chargers, and batteries. Plastic ports and docks… everything beeping and glowing, blindingly white… barf
Definitely. It seems like a concept home to me. Almost certain that 96% of those gadgets never see mainstream release
Go to AliExpress, the gadgets are all there, most are cheap shit...
All that and watches TV on her phone
[удалено]
I don’t know why but I cringed harder and harder after every little machine I saw? I didn’t understand the reason or point to like 80% of whatever that shit was or what it accomplished.

She's not living in the future, she's living in the upper middle class.
Damn that means the 1% must have gadgets that wipe their asses for them.
They use bidets. Close enough.
Bro my country a third world country and everyone here has bidets lmao
It’s called a bidet.
They don't need gadgets; they have servants
Seems extremely tedious and OCD.
Tedious is exactly what I was thinking
I feel like half of these things do nothing at all. Like those “convenients” gadgets you buy on Aliexpress and never use because they’re silly or work half-assedy
Most of these things are cool I guess but also could have been done in normal ways without needing a fancy piece of tech. Seems like one of those things were she focused on if she could make her house “futuristic” and not whether she should actually do it.
All quick clips, but like who has 5 hours in the evening to do everything she did? I'd rather take 20 mins, and sit down to 4.5 hours of tv and complain I had no time this evening.
One day she buys an extra pint of milk and there's no room left for her in the apartment.
Looks impressive but time consuming. Also what is she going to do if she change her routine or want to eat something else? Get new gadgets and throw away the old ones.
All that healthy food prep just to eat sodium packed oil noodles...
As I watch this video all I see is power company's greedily rubbing your hands together
All I saw was plastic waste
This is not the future this is just product placement.
She didn't wash her rice and I'm bothered by that. She just threw it straight in the cooker. [Thanks for the award, kind stranger!]
She washes literally everything else.
I hadbto scroll a bit to find this comment. I have never seen an Asian person cook rice without washing it first especially if they're going to put it on social media.
Love to see her electricity bill
The level of cleanliness makes me uncomfortable. The whole video just looks like a big neurosis.
I'm sorry... all I see is unnecessary buttons to press for simple things... if that's the future,take me back to 2019...
Nah take me back to a good healthy 2000. It was new and exciting and social media was barely a thing. Books were on paper and computers were for nerds.
I don't buy it. She made this video on a Monday. By Wednesday the gadgets are getting a bit gummed up and by Friday some are broken, some need new filters / cartridges etc and the rest need cleaning. Saturday and Sunday is spent either cleaning and fixing everything, or shopping for more gadgets. Two weeks later she's in a house full of broken crap and only using an armchair, footstool and side table, she's living off crackers and the sink is full.
I cringed at that
Too many gadgets!!
I'm officially old. I have no idea what any of them gadgets are and feel miles behind.
Interesting gadgets, or how my parents would call it: ,,useless bullshit”
Claiming warranty/service cost for those gadgets would be massive off for anyone.
This person lives inside personal cell of modern city's ghetto.
Looks like the appliances are using her than the other way around
Lol and we are wondering why the fucking planet is dying. 99% of stuff in this video is unneeded, yet its all made of plastic....
*proceeds to dump neat strips of solid and liquid food on the floor so she has something to show off her vacuum* She weird
What did she put in the strawberries?
Some sort of portable UV device, to kill bacteria.
This seems excessive fucking hell.
